So here you are, at the top of a mountain on an isolated island in the Pacific, with a camera-ready serial killer holding a machete inches from your face. Not how you thought this day would go. But what happened next was even less believable… You suddenly have a thought of escaping. You realize what you have to do just as Phil Keagan is about to strike you.
Hi there, I am Deeauna Venatta and I am interested in the day time bartender position as seen as seen on Craigslist. Honestly, I love what I do. Over the past 10+years I have over had the opportunity of working in a diverse range of establishments and events. A more detailed, yet brief, summary of my experience and can be found in the attached resume.
Usually, nothing significant happens in your day, so you don’t remember it down the line. For example, would you be able to tell me what you have for breakfast last Wednesday? Could you tell me what you did in the afternoon two Saturdays ago? Since nothing particular stands out in my life, I couldn’t tell you. Adnan Syed however, had an extremely eventful day January 13, 1999 considering his ex-girlfriend, Hae Min Lee was gruesomely murdered.
For a brief moment, miles away from the eyes of god, time itself stood still. And the singing birds went silent in their canopies, and the gentle licks of a passing breeze abated, as if the entire world, save Gatsby, knew. Knew that, like an old timepiece, the gears within the depths of George Wilson’s being had long since begun to fragment, and with the urgency of newfound knowledge, he had only one thought on his mind. Certainly, as he glided towards Gatsby’s mansion—and ultimately, into the foliage that surrounded it— Wilson’s breathing was neither slow nor rapid, nor shallow nor heavy, but rather, it fluctuated with an unrelenting attitude, and trapped between immense grief and rage, he carried himself dangerously with each step.
Hi, um, my name’s Phil. I’m a peanut. Yep, just a peanut, not anything special like a dog with a family to love or even an almond, which is actually a nut. Nope, I’m just a little peanut trying to live as long as I can before somebody scoops me up, plops me in a bag, and takes me home to be a nice after-school snack. Now you might be wondering, How do you have thoughts, you’re just a peanut?
August 29th, 2012 It’s raining down again. Grace Ciotta stares the front doors of Mickle Ray High School. It’s high school now which means she gets a new start. Gone are the days where she would get bullied by all the other kids.
Counting down the list from number 20 to eventual number 1, my heart raced as they called out the names. It was 8th grade and the rankings were out. This may seem like a rather pretentious achievement but when they called out the name “Andrea Campos” as the valedictorian of Copiague middle school. My heart skipped a beat and tears streamed down my face. Hearing my parents brag about me to their friends made me feel like my accomplishment was their achievement as well.
Hello again, I am so sorry I’ve emailed you so many times but I would really really like to meet one on one with Gerardo. My initial meeting that was scheduled for February 14th, I had to cancel due to being very sick and not wanting to spread it to him or his family. Are there any open slots? God bless, Rachal Adent
I met Eddie Lacy on August 8. It was family fun night, and I was with my friends. I asked for his autograph and he said yea but I didn’t have a sharpe and neither did he so I asked him he said yea.
One of the Main problems America faces deals with Disease. The growing burden of chronic disease and unaffordable healthcare are the leading causes of disability and death in the United States. America is number 50 on life span expectancy and this is shocking because even though we have some of the best treatments and medicines we don’t prevent chronic diseases that are avoidable with simple lifestyle changes. After watching the Escape Fire Documentary, I realized how this affected everyone and that I needed to know more about my families’ health and ways I can prevent chronic diseases I may be susceptible too because of genetics or lifestyle choices. Before I didn’t think my family had any diseases that were genetically passed down or ran
We head off to college. As Liam and I are heading to college we are talking about what we want to do when we get older. And Liam tells me that he wants to travel the world and make adventures. And I tell Liam that I want to also travel the world and become a writer. Music starts playing and we start jamming out to the music.
Thump! Thump! Thump! My heart was a drum, I was so excited but nervous at the same time while I was jogging out on the field. We were playing against the SaberCats, and it looked like it was going to be tough competition.
Billy Joel may have been right when he said “Vienna waits for you”, but the girl that the song reminds me of, she doesn’t wait for me. Granted, I don’t deserve her, and what I did to get her was wrong, but that doesn’t make the pain any less. Although I could write to you about the countless ways my family screwed me over, about the cold nights I spent in crack houses or the fights over custody of me that drew cop cars to our doors, I feel like this story is much more personal, and shows a side of me that many people never see. All I ask is that I am not judged for what I did; there are plenty people already that have made their judgements on my moral fiber, and I would hope that you don’t do, though if you do I can’t help it. I try my damndest as a human being to do what is right, but at the same time I was always raised to believe that the individual trumps all, being a big follower of Ayn Rand’s Virtue of Selfishness, and all that.
I began playing soccer when I was eight, which isn’t a very long time, but throughout the six years I’ve been playing, soccer has changed my life. My weekends, as well as some of my weekdays, have been devoted to soccer. Soccer has taught me how to be humble, kind and how to make sure my emotions don’t overpower my
As an in-coming freshman who hadn’t played on a school team in middle school, I was at a disadvantage because I was behind in skills and didn’t know many of the tricks. Fortunately, the coach saw my potential and I made the varsity team. My coaches and teammates continually pushed me and helped me become an even better player than I was before. Over the course of my four years on the team, I faced several obstacles that made me feel weak and inadequate, but to overcome them I reminded myself that I loved soccer. The biggest obstacle I faced was getting a concussion my junior year.
