BRINNNNG‚ the school bell rang. “Bye kids see you next..‚ ” the teacher didn’t have the chance to finish her sentence as 4-5 year olds screamed at the top of their lungs. It was the last day of school before winter vacation and the bell seemed to take such a long time to ring. Everyone’s all packed up‚ dressed and charged‚ waiting in front of the door to race out of the class and onto the bus. And when the bell rang we rushed out the doors of Locust Elementary school (an elementary school in Abilene

Ten years ago‚ my favorite pastime‚ and still to this day‚ is to run and compete in track and cross country.

My First Two Months of Middle School Normally you would think starting your sixth grade year of being exiting and really fun.

thing I’ve ever done in my life thus far was taking Spanish in my first two years of high school. Throughout my whole scholastic career‚ I never really had to try.

Upperclassmen would always tell us that senior year would be the most relaxed year of our four high school years‚ but honestly it does not seem like it. It’s not that the subjects that are hard‚ its keeping up with every class and the assignments. The thing that i am stressed about is processing all

Would there be any commonality between myself and students around a decade younger
