My heart thumped with heaviness while my eyes slipped passed the car window as my family approached the local cemetery. Slate colored clouds hung low against the horizon, properly setting the temper for the journey we were making to my great-aunt’s grave in remembrance of her birthday. The car ride up to the local cemetery in a small town in New Jersey was as silent as the ghost of my great-aunt herself- empty and bleak. I only assumed that everyone around me was clinging onto the past memories we
It was a bright Saturday afternoon and my birthday. I was scrambling around trying to make my house look somewhat presentable. Rrrrrinngg. As one the guest rang the doorbell, I quickly jumped up ready to receive them. “Oh my goodness, T-Taylor Swift is literally standing 3 feet away from me!” I squealed. In the corner of my eye, I could see Taylor's limo drive away, then I realized I had been standing there for a whole minute, making her wait. “Oh i’m so sorry, please come in and make yourself
When a person´s birthday comes around does he/she ever wonder what happened on his/her birthday before he/she was even thought of? Do they ever wonder about the special events that happened on that day besides their birth? I was astonished to have found out how much had happened on October 19. I was born on October 19, 2000. My parents are Billy and Teresa Summerlin. I was born in Mission Hospital on a Thursday morning. It was fifty- eight degrees and it was dark outside. My doctor was Dr. David
What Happened On My Birthday? When a person´s birthday comes around does he/she ever wonder what happened on his/her birthday before he/she was even thought of?

was about 9:30 AM, and my arm was still aching from getting my annual shots the day before. Every year, I dread going to the doctor's office to get these shots. They make my body feel significantly weak, and they always make me sick to my stomach. It was the weekend of my birthday, so I was planning on having my friend, Melanie, over to have dinner with us and to spend the night. I usually have a big party to invite all of my friends to, but I just wasn’t feeling well enough. My mom said that it was
do some research and decided to do something that is close to me. My birthday I know I was born on that day but I really did not know much of what has happened before my birth and during my lifespan. I bet some of the people reading this is like why I've learn that even out twenty dollar bill hides a secret. But back to my birthday's history I'll talk about stuff that has happened. The Price of gold in 2001 was $264.10 per ounce on my birthday.Gas was $1.54 in 2001 good price compared to today's price
their own birthdays. On May 13, 2000, many people had to mourn over the deaths of their loved ones. When people are children, they never quite realize that anything other than their birth happened on their birthday. Now that I am becoming a young woman, it is past time to find out what else happened that day through my own research. I had to ask my parents what they remembered about my birthday first. They are, of course, a reliable source of information as to what happened within my own family
Every birthday is supposed to be special and happy right? Wrong. They are for sure memorable, but not necessarily in a good way. Do you ever have an experience that ruins something that you had cherished for so long? There have been lots of times in my life that I have been confronted with situations that changed the way I viewed myself and others, there is one distinct time that I remember abruptly changing my view, and finally learning some very important messages. On the particular day that my
Every birthday is supposed to be special and good right? Wrong. Definitely special, but not in a good way. Do you ever have an experience that ruins something that you had cherished for so long? There have been lots of times in my life that I have been confronted with situations that changed the way I viewed myself and others, there is one distinct time that I remember abruptly changing my view, and finally learning some very important messages. On the particular day that my eyes were opened, my birthday
ANY OTHER ORDINARY DAY, today’s my ‘welcome to this world’ day. Some would call it my birthday, but birthdays are special and this day, this cold rainy seattle night is anything but special. The particles of cooled gas trickles down making a soft pattern against the broken city streetway. Nothing but city lights and moving cars engines greet me with a cold rhythm mimicking what would be the happy birthday song but in a more ruination melody. Sadness clouding my iris, which are meant to be filled
