I was never interested in tractors until I went to Louisiana last summer. Going to Louisiana was one of the best things that has ever happened to me during my life. Going to Louisiana was so awesome being able to watch and drive enormous diesel tractors and watch my uncle cut rice with a combine(which is a machine that is used to cut rice on a farm. It helped me learn about rice and the machines that farmers use to cut rice. I got to see where the rice is stored after it is cut, my uncle dries out the rice to get all the moisture out before they sell it and take the rice out of the rice bins.
Grow in South Baton Rouge wasn’t easy for Justice at all. While living in South Baton Rouge he attended McKinley Senior High School, which was a nightmare for him. He was bullied and it made him feel like he was nothing. He had already lost his dad to a car accident, and that was something he couldn’t get it out his head.

We took only the essentials and traveled to New Orleans, where family was waiting to take us in. I didn't like the idea of leaving the only home I had ever known, but I liked New Orleans all the same. During my teen years, I wrestled with the idea of returning to New York, but I found a certain comfort in NOLA and so I eventually decided to stay.
Life is based on a foundation of decisions and circumstances compiled on a precarious perspective of the user. The structure often relies on small and often overlooked elements. They receive no recognition, yet are the very reason for its prosperity. Trade towns and old docks are the lifeblood of the world, but best suited away from the public eye. Meant for the undesirables to deal with.
How fortunate I was to have been able to spend three weeks with my Dad. Much was always missing from our relationship as
For many years, I was not in touch to them over complex reasons. I'm trying my best to reunite.
The city is known for its culture, creativity, great food, and our different music. New Orleans has always been home for me until, the unthinkable happened. No, our city isn’t always filled with tons of fun. We have suffered a dramatic change over a decade ago. Although it was so long ago, our city still isn’t the same as it was before.
Thanksgiving is a celebration in which families partake in merriment and festivities, all the while feasting on enough turkey to make my stomach lurch. That wouldn’t be the case for me, however. On November 20th, 2015, I was seated in the back of a 2014 Chevy Malibu, twiddling earbuds between my quivering fingers to occupy my brain. For the first time, I would be meeting my boyfriend, Nick’s, entire family, and I was desperate to make a good first impression. What I didn’t know then was that family can be anyone, and an extended one would be eight hours away, preparing to embrace me with open arms.
It was a cold winter day. There was fresh snow on the ground as I walked out of the Philadelphia International Airport. I had lived in Fiji for the past nine years with only one or two short trips back to the U.S. in summer months to visit family. Everything in America seemed different from my previous home. The air smelled cleaner then in Fiji where the streets were filled with diesel busses that puffed out clouds of noxious fumes.
A while ago my future uncle, Randy, attended Thanksgiving with his friend, also my uncle, David. At the time my uncle was a young twenty year old who was rather blunt and lacked a great deal of compassion. He had no family and whenever he asked a question and said ‘I’m asking for a friend’ everyone would be like ‘Liar! You have no friends” save my Uncle David who was his friend and was bring him to Thanksgiving. While walking through the doors they were greeted by my grandparents and my aunt, Geraldine.
I first just wanted to compliment the complex layers of craftsmanship on top of each other in your writing. I really enjoy how you write because it gives key details that the reader needs to know along with humor and relatable engaging text to keep the reader on their toes. I thought when you were writing from the perspectives of both of the Wills’ that you kept their stories intermingled while still keeping them two separate stories. I think the best way I can describe it is that you captivate whoever you are writing for by having relatable real world perspectives for teenagers like myself to relate to. I also wanted to touch on what I thought made the writing exceptional.
Alabama Trip My mom and and dad told me in December that we were going to Gulf Shores, Alabama to visit my grandparents. Gulf Shores is the southernmost town in Alabama, located on the north coast of the Gulf of Mexico. I have been there twice when I was little. I remember that I collected seashells and went swimming with Boppa in the pool.
and my stepdad's family death’s. I still didn’t get as much info out of my dad as I would like, but it’s to be expected, we don’t really talk that much about that type of topics. I
Despite their divorce, they looked after me in unison. My time was divided amongst both of them. Half of the year, I resided at my father’s residence and the other half at my mother’s apartment. Their houses were just a ten minute drive from each other so I was never far away from either of them. Every Saturday night, we would have dinner together
