Today was the usual day at the base as one of the guards watched the show on the television. Nothing was showing up on the radar as men were looking at it for any sudden changes. Tristan Dimont, a private, was looking at the radars until he heard footsteps and got up to salute. The others soon got up to salute at the captain. He saw the captain walked towards him and looked at the radar. "Has anything changed?" the captain said towards the private as he looked at the radar. The private looked at the radar and said, "Nothing so far, sir." he quickly turned to the captain, "But, the radar did spot a couple Spanish ships earlier.".

UP TO THAT DAY, I'd had a Brady Bunch, cookie-cutter, beautiful life. I now know what it's like to have a 110-story building that's been hit by a 767 come down on my head. For better or for worse, it's part of my life. There are things I never thought I'd know that I now know.

A situation that best describes a time when I initiated a new venture was the decision to purchase a restaurant business. Prior to this opportunity, I had recently graduated with my first university degree and was already presented with an offer to work full-time at GE Energy where I completed my internship. As I was considering the offer, the opportunity to purchase a restaurant presented itself and aligned with my strong desire to become a successful entrepreneur.

The burden of motherhood can prove to be far too tough for some women in today’s society. One habitually is informed about a woman who either abandoned her child for adoption to a firehouse or even worse, which could be better, left unmentioned. Some mothers can fill the role of motherhood and beyond. The female who filled this niche in my lifetime was Zulma Enid Saldaña. Not only did she go above and beyond with her role as my mother, but also surpassed expectations as a father in my life as well.

My Grandmother passed away when I was Fourteen years old a freshman in high school. I have never been more devastated in my entire life. My grandmother and I were very close we spent every day of summer together when I was little up till I was old enough to stay at home by myself. I remember that every Friday we would go to the bank so grandma could get a check cashed and we would use that money for lunch. My grandmother would always let me chose were we were going to eat and me being a child it was usually McDonalds just to play in the little playset. On Thursdays my grandmother and I would go to visit the sick from church and would make fruit baskets for them. Going to the nursing home was my favorite thing to do because you could see the

One would think that purchasing your first home would be a very fascinating experience; after all it is one of the most major purchases of your entire life.  In America, home ownership ties in with the American Dream and the spirit of working hard to one day earn through hard work a home with a white picket fence. My husband and I felt that it was time for us to reward ourselves for all the hard work we have been putting in over the years by purchasing our first home, which was well overdue. I quickly learned the process of purchasing your first home can be very frustrating and stressful. However, if you survive the home buying process the reward is priceless once you move

The air in Florida was humid, but nice. It had rained just minutes ago, giving the feeling of cool freshness. None of the rides had been shut down, it hadn’t rained hard enough for that yet. The singles rider’s line was moving quicker than the group line. Thankfully, my dad, Kim and I didn’t mind riding with strangers. We just wanted the thrill of Disney World's Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster again.

think we already found him." He looked past Xion and Roxas. "Saïx you can come out now! Your game of hide 'n' seek is over."

First day of January 2010 is the day that I would never forget. Everything that happened on that day will always stay vivid in my memory. It all started with a Sunday morning. Unlike usual, that day, I woke up with a bright smile on my face. As soon as I opened my eyes, my sight immediately looked at the side of the grey cupboard at the corner of my room where I hung the calendar. I was so happy when I saw the calendar and the day of first January had finally arrived. I have been waiting for that day to come, first day of January used to be the most exciting day for me because it was my birthday, an important day that I will celebrate with the one and only person who I loved the most, Ben. He was my childhood friend, my neighbor, my

One day, as I galloped across the green grass, I gazed up at the tree. The tree that my older sister always climbed, my daring curiosity never as great as hers. I was a young kid at the time, maybe eight or nine years old. Imagine my point of view: a towering tree with scratchy limbs and insects attached to its leaves sat staring back at me. I was determined to live the seemingly lavish life that my sister had while perched in the tree, retrieving a stool from the worn down shed that sat adjacent to my Nana and Papa’s house.

Most children look up to their guardians/parent with respect and trust. A parent should protect and nurture their child so they thrive in the “real world”. As a parent, you should not spoon feed your child forever and you shouldn't ignore them, but you should find the happy medium so that he/she can fight through some adversity. As a teenager, many people grow apart from their parents because they think they know everything. This personal narrative is about a time I thought I was too good for my parents.

“Help, someone help me! You can’t take me I have kids to take care of!” I peek out of my kitchen window into the barren town and see another jewish man being abducted from his home by a group of nazis. The past few days have been filled with screams and terror ever since our town has been invaded. It will only be a few more days, possibly even hours, before the inevitable occurs and our whole family is ripped away from each other. As not only fear, but anger seeps into my veins, I walk into the small, dark living room and gather on the grey worn out carpet by the fireplace. Next to me are my two brothers and my parents. My parents are whispering about plans to continue making money since my father had to close down his delicatessen because of the fact that jews are no longer allowed to sell. My brothers Isaac, Mendel and I keep asking questions about what is going to happen with us and our home. My father continues to tell us not to worry but I can see the fear in his eyes every time we hear a noise outside.

It was a short yet much needed weekend for Scoob and the gang, full of bright colourful days, and lit by the scorching sun. Luscious waves which were breaking close to shore and palm trees swaying side to side, as if waving to the fishermen who were pulling in their monster catches from the sea.

I hoisted myself up the first limb and slithered through the winding sprigs. My moves were almost like clockwork, delicate and in rhythm with my breaths and my appendages. The uneven and disheveled wood was a great grip, but tore into my subtle fingers. My shoe’s soles couldn’t take the uneven surfaces and relied on my arms to do all the work. The offshoots got thinner as I proceeded up the tree, forcing me to be more skeptical of my movements. I began to worry about the drop below, but my worry faded away as I felt the warm touch of the sun wash over me. One more branch remained. I grasped that last branch and let out a deep breath. I relaxed a bit and examined my hands. They were raw. The adrenaline faded and I was left with skinned, throbbing hands and 50 feet to the ground. Somewhere down the hill, my dainty sister was struggling her way up the hill. I returned to my big sister mode and started my descent down the tree. This part was even harder than climbing up the tree with depending on my legs to support me. As the twigs got wider, the gaps between them increased too. Sometimes I had to extend my whole body length just to reach the next twig. This seemed weird because I didn’t remember straining myself
