I would like to share a story about my maids. I used to rely on maid services because I have two children‚ aged one and three respectively. When my eldest son was born‚ I initially sent him to a babysitter who lived nearby my area. However‚ the babysitter was only able to take care of my son until he was six months old due to her own pregnancy. So‚ because of the unavailability of my babysitter‚ I really needed to find a maid to look after my kids when I was away at work. My first maid was from Indonesia

One day after school when I was eight‚ my parents conveyed to our family that we were moving due to my father’s job. I found this bizarre since we had just moved to our massive house in Fort Wayne‚ IN about two years earlier. I questioned where we were moving to‚ and my mother told us we were moving to Texas. This time we were moving across several states rather than just a few towns away. Up to that point in lives‚ we had lived in Indiana‚ so moving to Texas seemed so far away and across the country

So many times I’ve considered the concept. So many times I’ve deliberated if this was worth doing. After all‚ I only need glasses to drive . . . A few years ago‚ I asked my eye doctor whether I needed to wear my glasses all the time. And I remember my doctor’s response quite clearly: “Well‚ do you want to see all the time?” Suffice it to say I didn’t find his response amusing—more like merely facing reality. When I was in tenth-grade chemistry class at YUHS/Central in Manhattan (I am dating myself

You never know how helpless you are until you have a near death experience. One summer‚ when I was young‚ my family and I went to a water park. I didn’t know how to swim‚ but thankfully the majority of the park required no swimming ability. For one of the rides‚ I wanted to get out of my tube and jump around‚ but once I climbed out‚ I immediately sunk to the bottom. I tried to kick back up and just as my legs gave in‚ a lifeguard climbed in and essentially saved my life. He was my hero and I was

“Middle School” “First Day of Middle School: 30 pencils‚ 64 crayons‚ 20 pens‚ 12 rulers‚ and 10 notebooks. Middle of April: 1 pencil you found on the ground in science class.” This is true for many people‚ actually it’s kinda true for me. Middle School has been tough‚ I will admit‚ but I truly believe that high school will be a lot tougher. But middle school will always be unforgettable. Our middle school is a bit different then all of the other school districts. It has grades 5‚ 6‚ 7‚ and 8. Most

My body slams into the ground. I get up wipe the dust off my back‚ pop my board into my hand‚ and sprint up the stair set for one more go. Growing up I fit the skateboarder stereotype‚ I was a skater boy who didn’t care about his future. Little did anyone know‚ skating was the one thing that kept me going. I spent most of my days skating after school until dark only to come home to my parents screaming at me to throw my board in the trash. Coming from Bangladesh‚ my parents always wanted me to

Before we knew it‚ we were losing 9-10‚ but we had the ball‚ and I was about to score a layup. But number 21‚ who we called “Bowser‚” came charging at me and sent me flying off court. Not even a warning from the referees! Coach told me to come off court to rest for a
