In this essay, I am going to tell you about the fashion of our training program, and why me made it the way it is. The client that we made our 6-week training program for is a 13 year-old girl with no medical history.
Throughout my life I have collected many sentimental objects and symbols that represent achievements, memories, friendships, and my childhood. I constantly look back at those items, as they lay in my room, in order to relive the happiness it reminds me of. I plan to carry these articles with me as long as I live, because they each portray different stories that I want to remember forever. Just like how Holden holds close to Allie’s baseball mitt, I hold close to many items as well. Among the many artifacts that I possess and are on display in my room, some of my favorites include: a starfish, photos to document past memories, a scrapbook, and a tennis medal.

Some soldiers have been driven to the point of mentally altering reality in order to survive day to day. An indefinite number of men became numb to the deaths of their comrades, and yet secretly desired to die and bring a conclusion to their misery.

With archaeology we can learn about the present and future by discovering about the past. We can learn about the present and future through past because knowing our past would make us understand why we are here today. Your past and history or where you come from is the reason why you are in the position you are in now. Archaeology helped us know about the tools in the past that we still use in the modern day, but we modified them to make them better. Just like the gun and bow n’ arrow, first there was a bow and arrow, then a crossbow and in the modern day a gun.
I was excited that I couldn’t sleep. I paced around my room once, then twice, then a third time. I was thinking about what I was about to do tomorrow that would change history. My name and picture would be on magazines and online. I was going to the past.
