dear friends... I take it as a honour to stand before you and say a few words on Indian Independence Day. It was today on 15th August that India woke up with Freedom way back in 1947 which is one of the biggest achievement for us. Who can forget that midnight of 15th August 1947 when Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru hoisted the Tri-coloured Indian Flag on Red Fort. Since that day we have got a great reason to celebrate this occasion every year with pride and honour. Independence Day in India is celebrated

My Snow Day When I was younger‚ I would maybe in the 3rd grade‚ one day we had a snow day from school my parents took my siblings and I to the hill to sled. My dad took me to the very top of the hill and had me scared out of my mind. I saw a lot of adults going down with no problem till they hit the bottom then ended up flipping over. So I sat back and watched some kids my age try and it at first they were crying a little bit saying the hill went too far down. Well some of the parents would get

2:00 AM‚ I was awoken by my cousin and all I felt was excitement and exhaustion. Right away‚ I called my friends to wake them up. There was no “Good morning‚ Janie.” on the other end of the phone call. The only greeting I got was drowsy voices saying‚ “Yeah‚ I’m up.” I hopped out of bed‚ running on only 3 hours of sleep. My body wasn’t ready to begin this journey‚ the excitement in me was the only thing getting me through Monday morning. I arrived at the middle school and immediately found my

long way; I learnt my lesson the hard way. I happened to be a very judgmental teenager and I lost many friends that way. Even before speaking with or having any contact with an individual‚ I judged them based on what I saw on the outside. My friends‚ the ones who stuck with me‚ always told me that one of those days‚ I would be taught a valuable lesson; and boy they were correct. I remember the day as if it were yesterday. It was just a regular boring and sunny day in my neighbourhood and I was sitting

I remember those long‚ horrible terrible days spent at wrestling camp. The combined smell of over 50 boys working out IS hard to forget‚ after all. I was a mediocre wrestler at best (still am in fact)‚ but even I knew these guys were on a tier far higher than I could ever hope to reach. While I was there‚ I got all beat up‚ exhausted‚ and even cried. I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep up with these guys. But I’d’ve rather died than not try. And besides … HE had seemed so happy talking about it.

It’s November‚ so that means its deer season. Every year deer season starts on the second weekend of November and last for ten days. I get really excited around August because during this time my family and I start exploring the woods looking for signs of deer. We look for signs like scrapes on trees‚ footprints‚ and tall grass that looks like it has been laid on and flattened. We set salt blocks out around our tree stands and set our cameras out hoping to catch a picture of a big buck. After we

Enrichment Activity I love watching movies in my spare time‚ so when I saw that for this assignment we were allowed to watch two movies and report on them I was ecstatic.
