Humorous Wedding Speech
Hi my name is Cecilia Mairea Bjorn, funny name for a German girl right, I am eleven years old today, that means it’s my birthday and my best friend Angie Lofkin is coming over for my birthday party. We’ve been best friends for eleven years now so our whole life we’ve always spent our birthday’s together. I can’t imagen a life without him; he is such a great friend and I know when we are old he will be right by my side at my death bed. I’ll have many guest and a gigantic cake I hope; my birthday party is starting now and all my guests are here, well almost, Angie’s almost always late. I had a great time with my friends today but now since the party’s over it’s time for dinner with the Lofkins. Mrs. Lofkin is the best cook you will ever meet. …show more content…

New men started to come this time and there was no reason to fear them; they weren’t scary whatsoever; they were extremely nice to everyone in hiding as they were helping us to be safer. Men started shooting at us and a few of the American soldiers (is what they said they were) and two people in hiding my dad and aunt Diane. Once we were safe I just couldn’t stop thinking about why my own people, Germans, were doing this to the Jews what did they do to them I thought over and over again. How could those Nazi’s think it’s okay for them to take another person’s life let alone someone who did nothing to them, they’re murders! They’re all cold blooded, selfish, completely evil MURDERS!!! I just couldn’t stand what I was seeing and hearing I was so disgusted at them and myself for being a German. Finally, it was over, the war was finally over; we were safe again. After this the Lofkins and the Bjorn’s decided to move to America and ever since then everything has been just great; Angie and I are both married and have kids and grandkids now. Angie and I are both eighty-one; it’s amazing to think about how long and how close we have been for all these

    I was sitting with my family at the breakfast table drinking milk and eating a piece of burnt toast; that was when I heard the feint sound of sirens coming from the east end of the block. My dads face grew pale and my mother quickly stood up and grabbed my brother and mines hand. She guided us towards the back of the house through a small opening in the floor. Once we reached the hole, she took my brothers hand and placed it in mine, telling him to watch over me. We were put into the hole and she kissed our heads, then covered the little light we had with a rug. I started to panic, unaware of the destruction and persecution that lay before me on a silver platter. We spent a week in that ditch, although it had felt like a lifetime. All the while, I thought of my parents: where had they gone; would they soon return? One day while we were there, with cramps building up in my legs, I heard footsteps coming from above my head. My brother hoping it was our parents returning to save us from the forever darkness that we faced slid the rug over and peered up with squinting eyes. The rough man standing above us, however, was not our father, but a man I would soon come to know as, Nazi soldier. The reasons of our taking were not because of crime, but because of my ethnicity, the way I looked, the way I spoke, and even my religion.…

    I am contacting you to inform you of some issues that have I have been concerned with when it comes to Kami and her performance on the JV cheer team. First and foremost, I just want to let you know that it has been a pleasure working with Kami on our team. Kami brings a very energetic and infectious vibe to our team. She has grown tremendously as an individual and as an athlete. However, lately, it is that same energetic and infectious behavior that has become a distraction for the team, especially during our practices. Today, Kami and her team had to run three laps because she was laughing and talking during stunts. As you know as a longtime cheer parent, stunting is a time that has to be taken seriously, otherwise there is the potential for…

    German troops started entering Lidice by the hundreds, we had never seen this before. The Gestapo started ransacking our house and looking for anything suspicious. Then they just left, nobody said anything. everyone was confused, Why would they just leave like that? If only i had known that they didn't leave they were only waiting. (after the funeral of Heindrich Hitler ordered Karl Frank that the small community lidice would be wiped out as punishment) On June 9th we were all sleeping in our bedrooms when we were woken up by the sound of trucks driving in, german soldiers broke into the house and ordered us to go to the village square. My youngest Bazil was crying and i knew something was terribly wrong. They told me to go to one side of the square while my children and my wife had to go to the other side, i was reluctant and screaming, they couldn't do this! My oldest daughter was screaming “dad, dad” but i couldn't do anything, they were pushing me farther away and i lost sight of them. They locked us into Horak farm. I knew it was over the second they broke me away from my family. My fingers were clenching and i was so angry i felt helpless. I knew i was going to be the first to die because i am jewish. I tried to hide it as best as i could when the soldiers always came into town but i knew they would find out somehow. When the more german soldiers started to watch us i saw some of the men whispering to each other. I stared at one of the…

    The day of Kristallnacht, or The Night of Broken Glass, I remember overhearing my parents discussing quietly in the kitchen the rumors going around that the Nazi’s had planned a raid on all Jewish businesses across Germany. I remember hearing the fear in my mother’s voice as she asked my father if there was any chance that this could be true. She didn’t believe that the Nazi’s would really take it that far, after all the things they’ve already put our people through, but they did. My father’s jewelry shop was completely destroyed, and all the jewelry in it was stolen. Things had gone from bad to worse overnight, literally. My mother and father continued to put on a strong front as not to worry my little brother and me, but after we were put to bed, I could hear them arguing night after night in the kitchen. My father wanted to sneak our family out of Berlin and move to France because the Nazi’s had not spread there, yet at least. France was still neutral and we could continue our lives there and be happy. But my mother wouldn’t budge, her whole family was in Germany, and she couldn’t think of leaving them behind with all the madness going on and my father could only afford to take the four of us. So we stayed. Several weeks went by after this decision, my…

    The most memorable day of your life is coming up. Soon all the wedding planning chaos will be forgotten as you walk down the aisle to utter those two words.”I do”.

They envision more old fashion items, ones manufactured and sold at all the big-named stores.

    The capturing of my family could’ve been prevented if we had only moved to a country that wasn’t occupied by the Nazis, yet we made a decision that there was a high probability we would get captured whether we moved or not. On that day my mother and father delivered the news to me and my brother with a horrified tone in their voice and declared,…

    My Hero's Journey

    I thought of when I was back at home during Hanukah with friends and family dancing with the music. I woke up with a fellow Jew tugging on my shirt saying, Quick, quick. The train had stopped. I got up and followed the line of people going out of the train. The SS soldiers lead us into a room where our hair was cut off by Capos, but this did not break my conscience. I knew I had to maintain my sanity. We then put into a room. It was hollow like the heart of the SS. They stripped us of our clothes, locked the doors and left. Everyone was just standing there, humiliated. It was like getting born again, we had nothing, no clothes, no possessions, and no choice but to stand ashamed and mortified. I thought what if this was the end what if all our lives end now, Ive heard of the gas chambers but never assumed they were factual. They were stories from around the ghetto, I imagine the where to scare away the Jewish communities. No one would think that we the people could allow an Anti-Semitist country. As I was standing in that room exposed to this corrupt world of Nazis, I felt a drop on my shoulder, then the whole room was showered down upon with what just ended up being…

    My family has always told me to believe and be true to myself and trust that everything happens for a reason even when your not wise enough to see it. To say the past 12 months of my life has been nothing short of AMAZING would be an understatement. From deciding to compete the week before the pageant last year to placing 2nd at Miss Louisiana USA and everything big and small in between, I have enjoyed every second of having the title of Miss Louisiana Northshore. There are A LOT of people a have to thank for making everything happen this year. Brian, Chris, Mrs. Dawn and Mrs. Donna your awesomeness never goes unnoticed. All of the work the four of you have put into helping me and the other titleholders throughout our year was endless. Brian…
