discovered your reason for doing something you love? The first time that I discovered that I loved football‚ was when I was playing football. My whole life I have been told i’m a really tough kid‚ and at the time I was a soccer player. My sixth grade year playing soccer I started to be more rough when I played. It got to the point where I was nicknamed the bulldozer. I was at the level when kids would start to flop to get the penalty. I then realized that I didn’t want to play a sport where you had

Now the feeling i had when i first saw/drove one i was a bit scared. But i got used to it because they were all around me‚ my house‚ my aunt’s house.

Why I Love This Photo I’ve always been referred to as a “Daddy’s Girl” and I wouldn’t want it to be any other way. He has always been the big hero in my life that always used to sing “Butterfly Kisses” to me before bedtime and the one to give the biggest hugs the next morning. The photograph displays me standing in front of my dad on the bow of a fishing boat on a summer day. The boat was pushing through the calm waters of Lake Superior‚ and we were examining the views in front of us for a few minutes

To my love Emmett Today was the day I was going to tell my best friend since 1st grade how I felt about him as more than a friend. Maybe it was time that I expressed my feelings towards him‚ and stop being a so called whimp. I moved from Mississippi when I was 10 year old and leaving Emmett was even harder. We were both raised in Chicago and we had always been together‚ even our families were close. This summer Emmett will be visiting soon for his two week vacation with his relatives‚ and had called

A library and a book are very different things. I love books. However‚ I hate libraries. This may seem contradictory. How can someone love a book so much but hate its natural habitat? The answer lies within a bittersweet story of seeing my future‚ not so long ago‚ that tells the story of my education. It was January of my freshman year‚ and my classmates and I were brought to a library to be introduced to the pieces of paper that would follow us forever: our academic transcripts. My classmates joked

Dear. Mr. Lac Su I would like to start off by saying Thank You very much Mr. Lac Su‚ Reading your book brought to surface many of the occurrences in my life that I have found myself hiding from. You told my story seen through your eyes but from a different environment‚ I honestly thought I was alone in this world until I read your book. From moving from your home land‚ to being bullied and picked on for your accent‚ losing a friend through tragedy and having to meet new friends in a

I didn’t always like going to school in the morning; in fact‚ I used to hate going to school. I always found it boring‚ useless‚ and a waste of time. I always asked my self‚ “when will I ever need to do/use this outside of this classroom?” The process of getting up early‚ getting ready and then sitting at school for seven hours a day Monday through Friday didn’t appeal to me one bit. Little by little‚ I had unknowingly programmed myself into thinking that it was such a burden to go‚ that I eventually

Good and Bad Experiences One of the many memorable scenes in Lac Su’s memoir‚ I Love Yous Are for White People‚ takes place in Chapter Four. It is the scene where Lac’s father takes his family out to buy their first restaurant meal. I find it a very interesting and hilarious scene. Pa receives some extra food stamps from Uncle Sam‚ so he decides to take his family out to the restaurant around the corner of their house. Obviously‚ this is the first time of them eating in the American

One of the aphorisms in this novel that I love and applies to me is‚ “If you really want it‚ then you’ll make your dreams happen.” It relates to me because I’m trying to be a foreign exchange student next year. It’s been a goal I’ve had for awhile‚ and so many people try to tell me I can’t do it. I’ve set my mind to doing it‚ and I think everyone should think this way and try to achieve their goals. People should aim high in life and never stop until they reach the top. Anything is possible if you

Monday night‚ and I was sitting in the Ed Landreth Building for the first time since the summer before my junior year of high school‚ when I attended the TCU All State Choir Camp. I reveled in the sights and sounds of the music department; every sound felt familiar to my entire high school choir career. It became fifteen minutes until the recital began‚ and my friend Taylor and I quickly walked into the Pepsico Music Hall. “Just wait!” She told me with excitement. “You’re going to love it.” Time went
