issue in my life. What I did not know was how easy it would be to change that. Most of my life I struggled with anxiety and social awkwardness. I never knew how to talk to people because I always tried my hardest to avoid the situation. When I got thrown into a situation where I had no choice but to push past my anxiety I realized a lot.

Two Beaches in Vietnam There are many beaches in Vietnam‚ but I only have been to Nha Trang and Vung Tau‚ which are two famous beaches in my country. Even though both of them are wonderful places where people can relax on vacation‚ I prefer Nha Trang for three reasons. First of all‚ the sea view in Nha Trang is more beautiful. While Nha Trang has a blue sea‚ white sand‚ and a long range of coconut trees along the beaches‚ there are gray sea‚ yellow sand‚ and many rocks near by the

English 111 March 16‚ 2009 As my boyfriend and I walked along the crowded pier: we inhaled the smell of freshly cooked crabs‚ shrimp‚ and lobster that came from the little blue restaurant that sits right on the pier. I could tell that the pier was an old bridge by the cracked cement and the old yellow road markings. The silver rail that surrounded pier was also aged and rusted. After walking about a mile we meticulously lined our poles on the rusted railing. My pole was blue and silver with bells

that I look back it is a funny story to tell. To start from the beginning I have always strived to be the best daughter‚ student and athlete to make my parents proud. Until I reached the age of 15 when I became a sophomore and got a little off track and started to go downhill. Not only did my grades start dropping but I started to lose respect for my parents and did not care about what they thought. I was a typical teenager that got caught up in the wrong crowd and doing all the wrong things and I

If I have had a bad day or issues are on my mind‚ the one place I go is the golf course alone. It was a scorching hot day and my mom dropped me off. I told her to come back in an hour and a half. I grabbed my golf bag and threw them on my back like a bag of bricks and begin to carry it over to the range. As I walked by the first tee box the workers were packing up for the day and heading home. I could hear lock on the door click and I knew I would be one of the few people out this late. In the sky

Myself as a Writer Gatphan Atassi 2nd Period AP Lang It is no surprise to anyone who has known me since my years as a "wee-little" first grader that language is my "Achilles Heel." The inner confusion in an up-and-coming student’s head when introduced to two languages since birth is quite a mess. Having to live in a world half dominated by the colloquial English language that is spoken everyday while the other half is controlled by the strict rules of Arabic drives me insane at times. Lately
