The noise from the chattering crowd receded as footsteps reverberated from where I walked. I nervously stood in the centre‚ breathless. The violin in my hand was drenched with sweat and my legs were shaking uncontrollably. My only resilience and my Beta-blocker were the fellow companions standing with me. This was my first ever orchestra performance in a grand theater. I sat down facing the conductor with my legs still not under control. One signal from the conductor‚ I let my heart do all the

The cool breeze hits my face as I am sitting underneath a wood topped gazebo. This square designed structure makes me feel as if I am inside. The sun is peaking through with limited sunlight due to the soaring trees overhead. This space has an X shaped side walk cutting through a garden. The garden makes it feel very peaceful‚ but yet there is still commotion going on with students walking to class. People interact with this space in several ways. I see people sitting on benches enjoying the beautiful

We went to cedar point over the summer. As we went on the top thrill dragster because we have never been on the roller coaster and the line was really short. We were talking on the way to cedar point if we were going to ride the top thrill dragster. “If the line is shorter than last year we will try to get on the top thrill dragster”

The gut-wrenching screech of the whistle shook my ear drums‚ numbed my chest‚ and crippled my legs. Prior to this‚ Pine Richland had kicked a field goal that gave them a three point lead with only seconds left. We had one play to win: a kickoff return to hopefully save not only our season‚ but to justify the twelve years I had devoted to this game. As the ball was hopping down the field‚ I stood there trying to stop my hands from frantically shaking. After what felt like an hour‚ I could finally

Pulling up on this old beat down gas station. We all knew it was old when the sign was hanging loosely and swinging with the wind. My dad needed to put gas but I could see he was very skeptical. I rolled my window down getting closer to the gas pump‚ when I smell the most unpleasant scent I have ever smelt. I told my dad we would have to pay for the gas on the inside because the machine was so old that dirt and spider webs built up in the card machine reader. The buttons to the pump were all faded

Sparta Essay By: Belle Cardwell The rain; it’s calming like my mother’s grasp around me‚ engulfing me with warmth. That is over‚ though. Today is the Flagellation Day.

My Computer I have an hp computer laptop. We’ll‚ it’s not actually mine because everyone uses it so I will not refer to it as mine. We’ve had it for about 7 months.

He sits on the steps in front of his brown house. One foot on the sidewalk the other leg bent at the knee. The orange glow of his cigarette held inches from his yellowing teeth. From inside the house he hears shouting. He stands‚ his light washed jeans are worn down at the knees. He stubs the cigarette in green ceramic ashtray on top of the wooden banister. Taking out a lighter‚ he walks over to his car. Placing one foot on the gray rear bumper‚ he lights a second cigarette. The luminescent street

As I stand amongst the throngs of people in my carefully chosen spot I close my eyes and take a moment to breathe in the greatness that will be this rock concert. As the stench of burnt out cigarettes and stale spilt beer entangle in my nostrils they mix with the unmistakable reek of fresh vomit from the guy in front of me. I look down to him from my perch and see he has curled himself into the fetal position‚ looking like a tiny helpless child‚ dressed in stained black jeans two sizes to tight
