They will never get to experience the thrill of soloing for the first time or the terror of dodging crows at 100 mph. Most people will be familiar with the sensation of your stomach settling somewhere around your knees or your throat while on a roller coaster‚ well‚ flying an airplane makes that feel like walking down a flight of stairs.

Lambert 1 Hayley College Writing 3‚ Sept. 2013 A Stadium of Fun The Pittsburgh Steelers have been my favorite football team since the day I was born. One fine memory I have of my childhood is watching Sunday night games with my dad‚ begging him to let me stay up late to see the ending. Football was always our thing‚ our special bond you could call it. We never thought anything could be more exciting than watching our team win on our giant flat screen television until we went to an actual

It was a cool summer day. I landed in the capital of Poland and just got off the enormous plane. It was my first overseas trip to Europe so I was somewhat overwhelmed. The sun was unbearably bright and I could feel the sunrays burning my eyes. My red face lighted up when I saw the city. It was truly a memorizing sight to see‚ before me stood a new place with new surroundings. I got myself together ready to explore what was ahead of me. As I walked the noisy‚ overflowing streets of Warsaw I took

For two years‚ I played each soccer game with the same pair of cleats. These cleats stayed with me 6 different seasons‚ 5 different teams‚ and almost 100 games. The cleats were dark blue (once light blue)‚ and had neon yellow laces. They weren’t the finest cleats‚ but I had grown a bond to them over the years. The coloring on the sides had fully altered from the color that I once bought it as‚ and the ends of the laces were fraying. It’s not that I never had the opportunity to let them go‚ in fact

Free Mind There are moments in life where everyone needs to escape from everyday life. Everyone has their own way of escaping. It could be listening to music‚ going somewhere quiet‚ going out with friends‚ or some people may even part take in different types of drugs. My place of escape is on the side road of a forest. There is a spot on the side of the road‚ where cars can stop and take a break from driving or just to relax. As I sit on the side of the road‚ I feel peaceful‚ hearing no busy life

Lily Campbell Block 3 Mr. Watrous 18 September 2012 Who is Mr. Watrous? When we initially meet someone‚ we immediately tend to judge by physical appearance. This is somewhat of a natural instinct‚ although the way someone looks does not necessarily reflect the individual’s true self. When I first strolled into Mr. Watrous’s classroom‚ my first impression was that he’d be a stern‚ serious teacher. Soon after I heard him speak to our class‚ and even more after having him for a few blocks‚
