I have participated in volleyball, basketball, track, and cheerleading. These activities have taught me teamwork, which will play an important role in the real world.
In a really chill room with couches as green as Shrek. With the scent like home as any other place. The couch feels soft and lumpy. It sounds like laughter and making jokes every minute. It never stays quiet.
Full Circle It was my senior year of high school and everything was going as planned. I had already been accepted into various colleges to study Math Education. This was the only career I had ever considered. Until now.
All through school, I would find myself actively participating in one sport to another. I loved being active and thinking only of what I wanted to do. Life has a way of becoming a reality. The choices I made during my younger years have followed me to my current years. The busyness of work, family, and children have restricted my own freedom of time.
Throughout my younger years, during elementary school and middle school, I participated in many different extracurricular activities from sports to music. I pursued, volleyball, basketball, tennis, swimming, judo, gymnastics, ice-skating, horseback riding, piano, violin, guitar, choir, tap, ballet, jazz, and street dance. I leapt like a frog from activity to activity, always in search for something new to try. Having the opportunity to try so many
Being in high school, I have always thought that a student should be involved in some sort of activity, whether it be sports, choir, or the gaming club, it’s nice to branch out just a little bit. Well, I did quite a bit of that including golf, band, and theatre. I was on the Girl’s Golf team for two years, and managed the Boy’s team for one. I love to play, and being in a small team was a lot of fun. Their wasn’t girls fighting over who would play varsity or not, but instead pushing each other get their lowest scores.
When I was playing baseball I wasn’t happy; it was complete torture. When I was in cross country practice I loved life. I knew it was what I wanted to do, not baseball. “I just don’t know how to leave baseball; my dad loves that I play his favorite sport.” I spoke to my mom and she suggested I enjoy my high school career doing something I enjoy.
We had paved our own trail. The dusty dirt under our feet had become crackling branches while the hills and hills of dead scrubs scratched up and down our legs with every step. We were coloring outside the lines, thinking outside the box, a trait I didn’t even realize I had before I met him. The moment was full of hope and promise even there. Surrounded by what looked like the aftermath of a wildfire, we were two stars alone in a deserted galaxy.
Honestly, I didn’t think I would make it this far. I didn’t think I would be up at 11 PM answering an insight question that asks me about me. I didn’t think that I would be sitting at a lunch table with my friends, eating and cracking jokes. I didn’t think I would sit down at the dining table singing happy birthday to my younger brothers and sister. I’ve struggled with depression for so long that it constantly felt like there was no point in fighting back.
As Evan sped away from Buffalo Jack’s, hitting the highway and accelerating to nearly a hundred miles per hour, Liam could be heard peevishly whimpering to himself in his mother’s arms while Angela stared straight ahead, locked in a somnambulistic state. Four miles down the road the Geneva Turnpike turned into Route 20 and the Pontiac cruised west out of Canandaigua. As they passed a Peterbilt, its driver laid on his air horn upset over Evan’s reckless speed, the sound jolting Angela out of her hypnosis. “Evan, who was that guy back there?” she asked, but Evan remained stolid and white-knuckled on the steering wheel.
As I drove home, on the same highway I had driven or ridden almost every day my entire life, something about this drive felt different. Maybe it was because that ride connected myself with my work, my friends, my whole life, and I was about to take this drive for the last time. I had just left my best friend, Madison’s house. We spent the entire day hanging out, eating, and losing my pedicure virginity, but avoiding the inevitability that, unlike the previous times we had spent together, we would have to say goodbye. As I was driving, tears streamed down face in a complex mix of sadness and joy.
Jimmiela Bruessard 9th Honors Mrs.Smith Tonight? I stared into the dark sky, taking a deep breath. “Tonight...tonight.”
Ancient civilizations had lots of technology that they used in order to survive. Ancient Rome has one of the strongest and massive empires. The ancient settlement was located on the Southern part of Europe that now is called Italy. The settlement began as a small town founded in the 753 B.C. by a tribe of Latins. Ancient Rome stretched from the Caspian Sea and the Red Sea in the East, across Northern Africa to Spain in the West, and to England in the North.
He has walked in the middle of town everyday and no one has ever seen his face before. The man wears a black flat bill hat, white shirt with a red scarf that covered his face and a big black jacket with a big hood, dark blue jeans with rips all down the legs as if he fought a bear , and the thing that popped out the most where the man’s boots. They were ankle high light brown army boots that had many rips and tares in the side of them and the man has always worn them. One day I walked up to town like every day to go to work and I seen the man walk past me and I see him every day at the same time and same place for the past year.
The first activity that I would like to talk about my involvement in is football. The reason i’m choosing football is because it’s one of the activities that I dedicate all the free time I can to. Going into my Sophomore year of highschool I made the decision to begin playing the sport of football. The reason that I choose to join football was because of the seniors on the team always asking me and telling me of the experience of playing. Once I joined the team everyone welcomed me in like a family member and I knew my football team would always be there for me.
