we were just practicing for the next day‚ where no one would dare move from their seats‚ because‚ no one wanted to miss a second of the performance. This is color guard. This is me. Color guard has transformed me‚ and pushed me closer to the woman I want to become. I’ve learned to have a voice for myself‚ because we shout our counts as loud as we can in the hopes that‚ if we shout loud enough‚ maybe our toss will land perfectly.

see it in person. I have been 4 times. I attended a Cubs game back in the 2000’s; with a few of my childhood friends. As we walked up to the massive brick building‚ I could feel the atmosphere of excitement and the history of all the failures that it contained inside.

however‚ I find that I most associate myself with the color periwinkle. The name of this Crayon fascinated me when I first discovered it as a child in my 96-color Crayola box‚ a well-received gift from my grandmother that would mark the beginning of a life-long love of art. It sounded fanciful‚ like it had originated from the pages of one of my many fairytale books. I now know that the name comes from the periwinkle flower‚ a lovely little five-petal flower that‚ though as a child I was unaware

winter of the end of the year. My friends and I were walking back home from Friday prayer at the Masjid. We walked on down the road until we approached the river bank where it was arctic and barren along the shore. Suddenly‚ my friend had the idea of crossing the river to getting home faster seeking a new experience of adventure. I already assumed the situation could be a lot worse than that‚ but we shouldn’t live in fear‚ I thought. Before I knew it‚ I was walking on ice. It was another

We have plenty of restaurants nowadays‚ but what makes a restaurant so special that everyone wants to come to it over and over. Most of the restaurants try their best to be at the top rank but not all of them succeed. I have been in hundreds of restaurants but only some of them are the type of restaurant that you can be in love with. Today is about my journey to the fabulous restaurant The Cheesecake Factory. The location of the restaurant and how big is it are signs to how good the restaurants

food is chicken fettuccini pasta. I prefer this dish because of the great taste. It consists of a magnificent sauce‚ tender chicken‚ and mixed vegetables. This blend of ingredients contributes the flavor‚ texture‚ and appearances of the pasta. Just because the sauce isn’t an attractive color‚ which is an dull white with drops of grey from mushrooms and specks of green from the broccoli .The creamy fettuccini sauce itself is so tantalizing it’s truly what I call the cream of the crop.

"An Anecdote of the Land of Ice" My friend Josh and I didn’t say much as we loaded our luggage into the rental car at Keflavik Airport.

with snow. Like making huge snow balls‚ a perfect snow angel‚ or watching a favorite holiday movie. I think these two things are best part of winter. The worst part may be having to shovel all the snow away. On the other hand‚ I can make huge snow mountains and forts. Making the biggest snow man is another thing I’m good at. Showing my younger brother and sister how to make one is fun too. Also I like to go to the ice skating rink with my friends and practice my ice skating. This reminds me that
