Last Friday, I attended the Ole Miss vs. Tennessee game with my friends and our mothers. A couple of the girls on the floor of my dorm thought it would be a fun idea if we took our moms to an Ole Miss volleyball game, and then go out to dinner afterwards. I agreed with them, so we all decided to attend the game. Once we got there we sat down, and immediately our mothers clicked. My mother, my roommate’s mother, and my friend Morgan’s mother hit it off so well that we couldn’t get them to shut up! My roommate and I teased them by calling our mothers hyper and childish. I haven’t seen my mother so giddy in a long time, so I was amused. Point after point, Ole Miss battled it out, winning the first game. Then the second game went around, and I

The United States Supreme Court case Stanford vs. Kentucky was a national debate that permitted the hypocrisy of the death penalty, which at the time stated that all offenders who were of the age sixteen years or older at the time of their crime would receive the punishment of execution. The case took place on the day of March 27, 1989, and was officially decided on June 26, 1989. The argument began when Kevin Stanford, who was seventeen years old at the time, shot and killed twenty year old Barbel Poore on January 7, 1981. Stanford’s was trialed as an adult and was convicted of murder, first-degree robbery, and first-degree sodomy, and as a result received 45 years in prison as a punishment. Stanford declared that “he has the constitutional

My church plays in the Turkey Bowl Flag Football Tournament every November. This was not only a time to bond with my youth group, but to also create friendships with other church teams. However, there was a problem: my team consisted of players from age 13-20; however, the 13 year olds had little-to-no flag football experience. Consequently, they got less playtime and slowly became discouraged However, as a leader I wanted to show them otherwise: I coached them, helped them, and give them a new perspective on the game.

A few weeks ago, I was finally able to make my first Georgia Southern baseball game. I am not proud that it took over a year for me to ultimately make a game. I have never been the biggest baseball fan, but I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to see Georgia Southern play the University of Georgia. I was very curious to see how the stadium and field looked, because I heard about the new renovations that the school added in the offseason. I also was interested to analyze how they promote their sponsors, because I will be doing the same thing when I start my internship this fall, at East Coweta High School.

The Thursday night lights beamed down on me as kickoff approached. It was the last game of the 8th grade football season and the last chance to make my mark on a personally rather ordinary season. We were playing Celina, a team known to be a powerful opponent. I was on the kickoff return team, playing on the far left side of the field and on that particular night we were set to receive the kick. The referee’s whistle pierced the warm and soundless autumn air.

“Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment” exemplifies two extremely compelling points of discussion, the supernatural and the idea that people are foolish and never change. “Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment” by Nathaniel Hawthorne is about a doctor, Dr. Heidegger, who claimed to have had water from the legendary Fountain of Youth sent to him. He invites four old people (they all knew each other and didn’t necessarily like each other when they were younger) to try out this magical water. When they were younger the three old men, the drunkard Colonel Killigrew, the gambler Mr. Medbourne and the corrupt politician Mr. Gascoigne, all fought for the affection of the beautiful Widow Wycherly. It turned out that the magical water’s effects worked and they were all reverted

Throughout my life, I have traveled to many different cities in the United States. Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to experience staying in a different country or foreign culture for an extended period.

The sport I chose to observe was college football. I decided to chose this sport because football is a sport my family enjoys to watch. Also I enjoy watching football more than any other sport because there is so much that could happen, in football many unexpecting plays could happen, and each game is different than the last one. The game I chose to watch was a college football game between the University of Notre Dame and the University of Miami that took place at the University of Miami on Saturday, November 11, 2017. The game started with Miami kicking the ball to Notre Dame.

Adrenaline pulsing through my body and anxiety filling up in my stomach, I quickly throw on my football gear and head out to the practice field. It’s a nice hot day in Ocala, Florida, with the sun beating down on our necks, we stand side by side in line waiting to be picked to play second, third, or fourth string in a play. Waiting in anticipation, each of us grinding our teeth, watching first string pure athletes colliding against each other like gladiators to have possession of a ball made at one-time of “pig’s skin”. To some people, the game of American football makes no sense, whether it’s the idea of trying to protect a ball or running and passing it to make a goal for your team. People like this, see the concept of football and understand why millions of people love it; but to them the sport is pointless and causes way too many casualties.
