A Night to Remember
As we all waited in line to go into the Luke Bryan concert there was a thrill of excitement in the air. I was standing there with my mother, aunt and friend. It was my mother’s birthday gift I had surprised her with. We walked through the gates, people running to get to their seats. You could smell the fries and burgers the stands had made to sell, guys walking around selling water yet people were too anxious to eat at this point. We went up to the lawn so excited for Luke to appear on stage. The lights from the stage were so bright you could barely see the performer. It was a cool, summer night. The stars were shining; the moon was big and bright. Luke was singing, his voice gave us all goose bumps. Every one of his songs could put anyone in a good mood. The crowd around us were dancing and singing along with him. We were all filled with such excitement. I don’t think the smiles on our faces could get any bigger. Even though it was hot out, we still wore our flannels and cowboy hats. My mom and I both had the same cowboy hats on but mine was white and hers was black. The smell around you was a mixture of hotdogs, fries and beer. Every once in a while you could smell the smoke from a grill someone had out in the parking lot. The sound of country music playing and people laughing was what made it a great time for everyone. The night got cooler; everyone started to settle down as Luke Bryan was done performing. We were sitting in the dried up grass, anxiously waiting for Tim McGraw to appear on stage. After a while a group of people across from us seemed to be bored as they started to sing and dance. Soon enough everyone else decided to join. All of a sudden drums started to rumble and the crowd jumped up screaming with excitement as Tim McGraw took over the stage. Loud music continued to play as we danced all night long and singing every word to every song. Tim came down from the stage and ran through the crowd, some guys picked him up and

    Australia’s involvement in the First World War began in the 1914, its actions representative of its support of Britain’s declaration of war. This unity is implied by the amount of men who felt duty bound to serve Britain’s interest, corresponding to 40% of men enlisted who are aged between 18 and 44. Of these amounts, 330000 men went abroad, whilst 60000 passed away and another 150000 returning with injuries (Dyster & Meredith 2012, p.96). Hence, the absence of these men during the period of Wold War One itself signifies major impacts to the Australian economy, coming in the form of a decrease in labour supply, thus triggering changes in the economy to attempt to replace these shortage. This dilemma is further compounded with the difficulties Australia experienced in its trade agreements during the war and its attempt to resolve it through import substitution, which however, triggers both positive and negative changes, hence altering the structure of the economy. Furthermore, the return of the soldiers from war, and Australia’s attempts to reabsorb them to the community also causes difficulties for Australia, which are compounded by the lack of finances involved to act upon this plan, hence straining Australia’s debt.…

    Throughout the day, Sam met with many different producers, but each time his dreams were crushed again. After a long day Sam checked into a hotel and he was trying to think long and hard about if he should go home or not. He was debating if he should go back to his hometown and find a real job, since he was a 28 year old man, or if he should continue to chase his dreams. Sam then decided that he was going to head back home, but before he did, he wanted to play one of his songs on the street for people to hear. Sam headed outside into the cold and windy night and gently pulled out his guitar and started strumming. He then began to sing as people walked past and stared, but as he kept singing people then started to gather around. Soon enough, a large crowd was surrounding Sam clapping to the beat of his song, and Sam thought it was exhilarating!

    First my youth group and I got in the old, worn down, party van that would take us to the time of our life. I felt the comforting air conditioner on my face. I heard the rusted engine growl to a start. I smelled the saltiness of the chip bags opening, and the fruitiness of gum being chomped. That’s when I finally knew that our journey had begun. We…

    I leaned toward the window where my pillow was pressed against the car door. I watched the lightning a few miles to away from the car as it lit up the mountains. Compass by Zella Day played through my headphones as I sat up to look through the windshield. I took my headphones out and my friend/cousin, Amaya, sat up excitedly in her seat. It was the first time she’d ever taken this trip. The city lights below sparkled. Amaya’s mom, JoAnn, and our uncle Bill played songs from “their time” as we drove down toward Las Vegas.…

    I still remember the night you let me preform with the band. You kept your left hand at the base of my lower back and introduced me to your friends. It was going to be a night to remember, but the lights could not shine bright enough to illuminate the darkness inside of you. I remember the smoke rising from your lips, my eyes narrowing through the haze. A smile played on your face and I leaned in for one last taste before we went on stage. The lights above us crackled to a hiss and died; suddenly I wanted to leave that dark place behind.…

    On the day of the concert, I make sure that I look attracted and ready to party. As I entered the concert, I could hear the beat of the music, the atmosphere was full of excitement. I could see the band playing music, I could see millions of people in front of me! When I went in closer, it felt a little hot and uncomfortable; the place was burning like hell. It was an outdoor concert. I started sweating, as the beat of the music gets louder, the whole stage started to shake and vibrate. My muscles tensed as more and more people started squeezing me into a square. It felt like standing in a middle of a cornfield, except tighter, less cooling, and uncomfortable. As the people at the concert started to sway back and forth, left and right, going according to the beat of thee music, I was forced to move myself as well. After a lot of hard work, I finally was in the front line of the audience.…

    My head was pounding with tension as my family and I ventured down the long curvy road towards the place I had dreaded going for weeks. I had told my mom over and over again that I didn’t want to go four hours away from home for the entire weekend, but I had no choice. As we pulled up to the glossy front doors, the anxiousness built up quicker than ever. I couldn’t wait to get out of that hot stuffy car. Being in a vehicle with five people and enough luggage to stay for 3 months wasn’t exactly how I wanted to spend my Friday. As I stepped out of the vehicle, I saw many familiar faces but I couldn’t remember all the names to match the many faces mingling and conversing on what they’ve been doing and how the kids were. Immediately I knew we had made it to our family reunion in Branson. And regardless of whether I wanted to be here for the next three days not, I knew I had to make the best of it.…

    A Beautiful Wedding Day

    I went to a beautiful wedding on a Saturday. It was a lovely outside wedding on a wonderful weather day. The air was crisp and breezy; you could feel the warmth and love in it. There was the scent of flowers, and candles burning. There was a beautiful pond with lilies floating in the water. There was a bridge with trellis of flowers hanging alone it. There were the sounds of children laughing and playing. There were the sounds of people clapping, and chatting, there were beautiful dresses and jewelry. Pretty little children throwing rose pedals. There were beautifully decorated chairs with red, chocolate, and ivory floral. There were the sounds of music playing; the arch was as beautiful as the preacher stood in front of it smiling. There were people crying and smiling as the sight of the bride coming down the aisle. There were tears in the bride eyes as she marched closer to her groom. You could see the joy in the groom’s eyes and the proudness and honor in the dads eyes as he gave his daughter away. You could hear the cracking inside of the bride and the groom’s voice as they spoke their vows and committed their selves to each other for life. You could hear the deepness of the voice of the preacher as he announced the couple as man and wife. You could see the happiness in the bride and groom faces as well as their families as the commenced their ceremony with a long sweet and passionate kiss. There were sounds of joy and clapping, cheering, and whistling afterwards. There was the broom from which they jumped. The excitement of the ladies voices and face as they all gathered together to catch the bouquet which was full of chocolate red and ivory flowers. They jumped, grasped, fought, and squirmed to reach it. The sounds of the claps and cheers of the women when they're friends caught the bouquet. The hand shaking and hugging amongst the two families. The scenery of the beautiful house of the event, the beautiful green acres of…

    I could hardly sleep Thursday night because I was so excited for what the following night might have in store. Up until Friday, I had only told my closest friends about the party so that the whole school doesn’t show up at my house. As Friday went on I continued to tell more people and word spread like a wild fire on a dry, hot day. I was almost tempted to throw off the party because by the end of the school day it seemed like everyone had heard about it. I decided to throw the party anyway because it was nearing the end of the school year and we had to go out with a bash.…

    When I arrived at the barn I stepped out of my truck and took a moment to catch my breath. The air was still cool and crisp from the light rain shower the night before. There were people rushing around trying to get their horses ready for the show. As I was looking around I heard “Brittany Nicole! Get over here!” my mom had spotted me. With my head hung down I walked quickly to where she was standing, which was right in the middle of the barn…
