“Timothy MacDonald,” Drusilla said to her fellow Ryanite Nightingale, “It’s a refreshing sight to be seeing you here.” “Thanks for the compliment,” he told her. “What do you have to report thus far?” she wondered. “Did your brother Henry wanted something to say to me, or are you here to speak with me?”
I thought that it was smart how we had to find our reading pace for each book. It is different from Elementary School and Middle School. I liked how you had us write reflections of the books, instead of just writing the page numbers. This helps me comprehend the book better because I have to go back and re-read parts of the book that I didn't get in order to finish the writing. I read many books this year, but my favorite was Ender's Game.
Directly after robotics club and procrastination, my favorite pastime is reading. Starting in elementary school I would pick up a book that intrigued me and read it through without ever setting it down. My reading habits got worse(or better depending on how you look at it) once my parents bought me a Kindle and gave me the means to purchase a book whenever I wanted to. Ultimately, my kindle led to some problems at school because I stopped paying attention in class in order to read.
A Ghostly Spark Introduction (reveal): Native American culture has always been an interest of mine. Since my beginning with the Boy Scouts of America on my path to Eagle Scout, I have come closer to the dense but often forgotten history of the First Nation people of America. Upon joining the Order of the Arrow, the BSA’s honor society centered around Native American virtues and beliefs, I have continued to take it upon myself to learn more about the long forgotten Native history. While I knew about the general struggles the Native Americans faced as “white man” invaded the unharnessed Western frontier, I had not learned about the specific catalyzing incidents that caused such conflict and suffered between these two cultures. While searching through topics like native music and combat, I knew I needed an event that sparked the rift between these two types of people, growing U.S. government and early
Mock trial has been a journey for me, marking both my experiences and my growth, as well as helping me choose a path for myself. Becoming an accomplished public speaker allows me to feel confident in my ability to succeed, and in my ability to advocate for myself. Mock trial allowed me to push my boundaries and to strive for something that required significant effort, for the first time letting me experience both success and failure in a higher stakes environment outside of academics. I joined mock trial in my sophomore year. The first year created a sense of community and family, and also helped me become more extroverted.
The hardest thing to be dealt with is someone you truly care about becoming addicted to something, like drugs. Growing up, that is all I ever heard about, who died, who was in rehab, who was in jail etc. Addicts, they are people that will never be understood. They are broken, mentally. It is even harder to get a grip on if someone has never had to experience what it is like to feel that way.
One food I have learned to despise is most definitively Jell-O. Throughout my childhood, I have been obsessed with my mom’s homemade strawberry Jell-O. Every time my mom made it I would have several cups within a few hours. The moment I began to dislike Jell- O was around the age of 10. I was feeling sick and was just getting over a very horrible stomach flu. I had just woken up from a long nap and hadn’t eaten anything all day, and I could smell strawberry Jell-O throughout the whole house.
My Jungian typology was ISFJ- introverted, sensing, feeling, judging. Just as my typology suggests I am a defender of what I feel is right. I am definitely working in the right profession. I have a need to help people. My superiors in my profession will say the same to anyone.
I don’t normally go out to after school events but I got an intvition for a award night. but there was a plan in changing the awhereness of my autism its lack there of. I played it like who would give me something, who knows ‘me’ and not autism. the oddest thing is there was a line where my mother had sign her name and to be sent back.
While watching a scary movie can be frightening at times there’s nothing more frightening
When I was 12 years old, my mom took my friends and I to the Haunted Hayride. Unfortunately, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. We got onto the hayride and there was a massive horse with a boy riding it who was headless and mean following us for about 2 minutes. For being in Middle School, I was pretty freaked out when we got off the trailer to walk through a corn maze , when then came a guy wearing a mask with a chainsaw chasing us out!!!! It was an exciting and horrid night for my friends and I.
The day was scorching, and I was trying to take in some breaths. Suddenly, the scrum half tossed me the ball. I was the decision maker, and the pressure was on me. I decided to run the ball. I dashed along the sideline, free as a bird, but an unplanned surprise awaited me.
People get scared by creepy things but what they don’t know is how fear can take over this whole Concept. Fear is not what you think it might be fear is a way your body reacts when it see’s non-normal things like zombies and ghosts or other dead things. But in this case people like adrenaline rushes and liked being scared. They like these kind of non-normal things to make it more exciting. Just like how authors make creepy poems that have a realistic feel to them.
the childhood horror because they allowed the survivors to be someone else. Even if the client is not part of a Satanic group anymore, these behavioural patterns can certainly stick around even after the trauma. The need to mutilate is related to people raping them, and desperately wanting them to stop. It is also seen as them not wanting to be their biological gender so that they would not be raped anymore. (Stroh, 1996: 69-73).
At this point, people may argue that allowing children experience fears can help them build up confidence, but confidence does not make sense for kids than such monsters, ghosts, or evils. In brief, growing up with fears from horror films will lose children’s confidence in any places where they feel similar to horror
