When I first read our topic for this journal, I started to get nervous. I immediately tried to think of times when I had misinterpreted someone or something and I couldn’t seem to think of any. I was clearly overthinking it a little too much, especially because I misinterpreted something just last week. I have a couple of friends who enjoy going bowling as much as I do and last Thursday my friend Courtney asked if I wanted to go bowling on Friday. When we have gone bowling several times in the past, we have usually gone around 6 or 7. We usually choose to go around that time because everybody is off from work and it gives my daughter Brooklyn the opportunity to go with us. So, with much excitement I responded back, “yeah, that sounds great!”
I was convinced at one point in my life that I wouldn't graduate high school, let alone get a college degree. I grew up in a broken home, where there was physical, emotional, mental, and sexual abuse. This all had a tremendous affect on me as a young girl, well into my teenage years, and early adult hood, and significantly impacted the choices I made for myself at the time. I moved out of my home at the age of 15 after my mother remarried, I went to live with a friend which I thought at that time was a great idea. It wasn't long after that I began smoking marijuana, doing cocaine, drinking and taking rohypno. I was hanging out with all the wrong people, and I stopped going to school for over a month my junior year. One morning after I had drank
Growing up, my parents and I always took the time to read stories together. Before bed, before school, while playing with dolls in the bathtub. Fiction and nonfiction stories alike taught me about both the physical, literal world around me, and the world I could create in my own mind when I needed to find comfort. It was through the works of fiction, however, that I learned despite the hardships of life, I could disappear into a world I could mold however I pleased.
“You have SVT” said the nurse across the room. A month earlier, at a track meet, I breathed heavily, staggering to the long jump pit. Maybe the familiar bass drum in my chest was nerves? The nurse tapped her pin. Sitting in a little room at the Heart Center of Nationwide Children's Hospital I was lost. Questions flooded my mind. I blankly stared at the nurse staring back at me. “Ultimately you have three options,” the nurse nodded with a half smile, “one of these options, we don’t offer often: a cure.”
Once upon a time, there was an illegal immigrant named Rosa she came from a poor family and her mother left her when she was 4 years old for another man.
The pixies leader looked at the quartz and garnets with interest. He flew closer and picked up a medium size quartz crystal and bit into to to check whether is was real or not. Once he was satisfied he agreed.
All my life, my main goal was (and still is) to move out of Wisconsin, say goodbye to the negative fifty degree winters, and explore the world. Looking for a career that incorporates my love for traveling and my intrest of Business has always sounded like a dream.Going to new, exotic places has always been a significant part in my life. After all, my first trip was when I was eight months old to Turks and Caicos. Throughout time, our family traveled to most of the Caribbean, I was infatuated with everything about these countries. At the age of ten, I started taking online Spanish courses.In the past year, I started to learn my third language, Italian. Learning a language takes a strong memory, from memorizing the spelling to all the forms the word has to be in.
Most of your posting was geared towards something I mentioned in mine, and I couldn’t agree more. How exactly do we combat the nature of warfare used against us for the last 13 years? How do we counter the ruthless tactics? Using women and children as shields and weapons themselves, seeking shelter in mosques, suicidal tactics and IEDs? Up-armored vehicles and better equipment will only go so far, and while we’ve made huge leaps in the realm of modernizing our force, I don’t believe it to be enough.
As well as there is the other sentence in this article said, “They undoubtedly saw rainbow patterns in the misty spray, but were convinced they had discovered a fairy grotto.” I would like to visit South Island and Milford Sound again as last time I did not see a rainbow. I would imagine that I rotate my neck to see the rainbow, it would be as a heaven, discovered a fairy grotto. Event though, “Jessie explains that Milford Sound is actually a fiord, carved out by a glacier and then flooded by the sea, whereas a sound is a flooded river valley.” For my opinion, it seems that Milford Sound is just a fiord rather than a sound. However, it is still the most experienced traveller, which means you won’t regret to travel under the one of the most
June 20: I woke up early this morning to my mom coming into my room. She always barges in using my stuff and that usually gets me annoyed and wakes me up because of how loud she is. My mom always greets me saying good morning once she sees that I am awake. Usually, I’m not always in the best mood when she wakes me up really early so I just tune it out and ignore it. I work every Monday morning so my mom always asks if I want a waffle or bagel, a typical breakfast meal she would easily make. After she asked me if I would like something to eat, that's when I decided to respond. She also asked me what time do I go to work, she always asks every week even though I always go at the same time. After I review our conversation, based on Jack Gibbs
After reading, I thought about the mental health continuum and how fear, the root of anxiety, was such a universal part of the human experience. While creating the piece I thought about how anxiety blurs out reality, trapping the individual in a swirl of fearfulness and intense worries. It is not considered pathological to be a “worry wart” or a “scardey-cat.” The problem is not the presence of fear, instead it is the overwhelming, debilitating, and persistence of those fears and worries.
After five hours under Mrs. Gonzalez’s 1997 Plymouth, my hands were so dirty I had to wash them ten times just to see my fingernails again. She was a familiar face around the shop, given that the teenagers down the street found her car to be an easy target for mischief, but this time, they had gone too far by crawling underneath her car and cutting out her catalytic converter (it has a high resale value on the street), and she couldn’t afford a replacement. When I said, “That’ll be $425,” she looked like she was about to faint.
his past weekend, was all together, a terrible wind storm, if you ask me. There were branches collapsing off trees, covering the road. Trees ripping out of the ground, and making a great disturbance, making power lines fall and break; as an aftereffect, Gray had no power. The outage time differed for each person in the town. Therefore, some people STILL have no power to this day. I have my power back, just because CMP came to fix it in my range. For the remaining people, they are in the process.
What causes laughs, the place you get stuffed, and involves sleeping? If you guessed a New Year’s party and/or sleepover then you guessed right. When it was time to leave my house, I was told to take soda and chips so I brought chips and soda.
Looking back on my younger days, I realized that I'd come a long way from childhood. I've grown from a small child to a mature, smart young lady. There are some things I have changed dramatically, and there are some I've kept because it’s a part of me in a positive way. Back when I was younger, people knew me as the girl that’s very shy and didn’t talk to anyone. Since then my personality is through the roof, people attach themselves to me easily. Now people know me as the girl that smile all the time, very positive, uplifting, active, and likes to have fun. At times it can be a bit much, so I love being home alone in my world relaxing, taking a break from everyone's energy around me, or detoxing myself from people emotions.
Kids always complain about how their parents compare them to the older sibling and they always want to be different from them. I always wanted to be more like my older brother, Alec. Everything he did, I did too. He joined swim, and later I followed in his footsteps and did the same events he did. I always looked up to him and he had a strong influence on my life and the things I did. Track season came along and I was participating but I didn’t know what events to do so I looked to my brother for advice. He also did track and suggested high jump and long jump, I had already decided on long jump but was way too afraid to do high jump because I had never tried it before and it looked so intimidating.
