Tears streamed down my face. Each falling in time with my rigid breath and heavy sobs. One never forgets a night such as this. A night spent in the halls of the oncology ward‚ just feet away from a woman who I loved‚ and who I would never get the chance to tell. I remember this experience vividly. All the way back to the moment I found out my Aunt Kirsten had stage IV breast cancer‚ which marks the cause of the most grievous night of my life. At approximately 11:30 pm‚ the world quiets to a whisper

The crisp fall air lapped my face like a little puppy licking a boy. The air felt like a little leather whip was hitting my face constantly‚ giving me burns. But of course I knew it was windburn. I was sitting up in my favorite tree. I looked into the distance and saw the brown‚ red‚ and yellow leaves coming down from their trees and bushes. This time of the year was usually my favorite. Fall was my favorite because of the beauty and the colors. But not this year. I will always look back as long

Soccer has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I first started playing I was four or five years old and am still currently playing for the Cape Coral Cyclones and the Oasis Sharks Varsity team. The game of soccer is a way for me to get away from all the stress and issues that I’m currently experiencing. When I’m on the field there is nothing on my mind except playing my game. Soccer has been a major part of my life ever since I was a kid and it has had a huge impact as well. Along

blood-curdling shriek rattled my eardrums. I sighed. I could feel a lump in my throat‚ overwhelming exhaustion pulled on my teary eyelids. All around me‚ children ran and forced smiles‚ whispering to one another as they tried not to notice the girl screaming in the corner. And across from me‚ a wailing ambulance‚ was Lauren. Earlier that day‚ when I first arrived at camp‚ I hopped out of my car with a grin. I had worked with people with special needs for much of my life‚ so I felt prepared to handle

November eighth of last year‚ a day that will live with me forever‚ evolved into a day that my car (Lexi the Lexus) and I almost died. On this lovely Sunday afternoon‚ some friends and I headed out to enjoy our normal Sunday Funday. Shortly after leaving the house for a drive‚ the song “Jesus‚ Take the Wheel” started playing. About ten minutes after the song we sped along about 75 mph down a blacktop back road‚ singing‚ laughing‚ living the time of our lives‚ and carrying on as normal‚ when we

wanted to get put into a group with one of my close friends. I was almost as excited as if it was going to be christmas‚ because I was waiting for this unit for a while. The teacher told us to get into straight lines like a ruler would make. I was imagining playing this sport with my friend and showing him cool things in it like‚ shooting it from half court or dunking. The teacher was spitting us our groups and I heard my name first and got chills crawling up my spine like a cold frigid winter breeze

blood pouring out of my mouth. Thats a good story. I am here to tell you about it. I was about ten years old‚ 4th grade. My basketball team was awful and horrible combined into one word. Awfible? Well anyway‚ this game was leaning toward us this time. We were winning by two points‚ and I knew i had to step it up. I did. I got a few buckets‚ a ton of rebounds‚ and some steals. I was doing great. Until a kid on my team elbowed me in the face‚ which cause my braces to split my lip wide open. It took

1. I choose to 5S my backpack because it had been causing small annoyances in my everyday life. For example‚ I would spend an unnecessary amount of time looking for a writing utensil‚ my keys‚ or wallet. This became a problem when I needed to find these items in a hurry. I also had trouble finding papers (and nametags) I needed in the main part of my bag‚ because there were many unlabeled folders and papers scattered around. 2.
