It is summer time‚ in the middle of June. The smell of the salty air‚ cool breeze of the gulf coast is enough to make my heart flutter. As I look out into the beautiful clear blue sky‚ I see it filled with kites of many colors‚ shapes and sizes. I look off in the distance and come upon a working shrimp boat with its net dragging behind capturing the daily catch‚ with seagulls flying around waiting for an easy meal. Standing there you can’t help but hear the rolling wave’s crash at the water’s edge

I have been a National Basketball Association fan for decades now. I can remember when I was young; I would just sit there on a Sunday afternoon and just stare. Stare without any interruption at my family’s television. Watching the greatness of Michael Jordan‚ who I watched‚ win 6 Championships.

Kaytlin Edwards Melted Knee Everything appeared to melt from the heat of the sweltering sun. I had fallen twice that day and every time I tried to get back up it was like a cloud of darkness was in my head and covering my eyes. Dribbling a ball up and down a court in 100 degree weather can cause a little bit of dizziness. Except the third time I fell‚ my head did not experience the darkness; my whole body did. It was as though someone let a cage of butterflies out in my stomach‚ but not the kind

Annie Normile 11/22/14 College Writing I Professor Liddle Exploring Authentic Experiences The ground beneath the stiff leaves is frozen. The cold‚ brisk air invades my lungs‚ I exhale‚ my breath visible. I step over fallen branches and get tugged on by thorny vines. The untrailed path I forge to the top of this mountain is steep and difficult‚ but worth the work to be a new explorer on the fresh‚ dewridden ground of this lonely mountain on this brisk morning

The sound of soothing music penetrated time and space‚ interrupting a peaceful slumber. The melody beckoned her to come closer‚ drawn into another world‚ another dimension. Obeying the Piped Piper‚ she followed the sound into the dense mist that made it difficult to see.
