Beldagi 2, Beldagi 2 was the name of the refugee camp that I lived in for 10 years. Most of the Bhutanese refugee camps were based in Jhapa, Nepal, which is in the heart of Himalayas. I don’t remember everything that happened in the camp. However, from those vague memories of the camp and camp life; I still remember we lived in bamboo hut and we used to get rice, vegetables and other types of food every Thursday. An organization used to provide us food and free schooling. My father taught Nepali in one of the camp school but the income was not enough for the family of 5 so he used to tutor students.

I started school at the age of 7. The schools were also made from bamboo and the elementary schools students had to sit on rugs that was kept on the floor. Yes, school was free but I still had to struggle because I had Asthma. I would get Asthma attack at least once a week. Wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath; that's how I would know I was getting asthma attack again. It would keep me in bed for days and sometimes it used to be so serious that I had to be admitted in the hospital. Since I didn't have an inhaler, I would stay home and rest whenever I got an asthma attack. My mom would tell me “no school today” and I would ask her “why?” and her only reply will be “what if you get another asthma attack in school”. Most of the time, I studied for test and exams from my friends’ notes. If I got sick during exam days, my mom would take me to principal’s office and stay there while I did my

What if you were destined to save your town, would you be heroic enough? What is a hero? Campbell’s Heroic Journey, The Hobbit, and story/ film explains. My idea of a hero is being a person who sacrifices themselves for others, and doesn't think people are less worthy than themselves. The Heroic Journey describes that anyone can be a hero, examples of that would be The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, which is a story about a group of men go on a death defying journey to save the town. The other story is How to Train Your Dragon is similar with other supernatural events. Such as dragons and bugs. Despite having similar heroes, The Hobbit had a stronger Heroic Journey because there were more obstacles.
It was late one day in June, and the sky was as blue and clear as sparkling wine. I sat back in my hammock reading the book Unbroken enjoying myself, and my uncle came up and asked me if I wanted to play poker with him, 5$ buy in. I jumped at the idea finished my page and went inside the house. Poker is a pretty big thing in my family and I’ve grown up playing and my uncle was one of the best, so spending time with him playing poker is always one of my favorite things to do. We proceed to set up the table, “Texas Holdem“ he says, Jacks to open”. Nothing weird, so we get the game going and the pots getting pretty big when all of the sudden he drops his cards. I stare the cards dead in the eye and see that i'm going to surpass him! He looks
While I was praying for God to send me a friend I could trust and share my deepest thoughts with, in walked a man and I asked God, “Is this the one?” Like in my past, Fari was a Muslim until he arrived in Canada and gave his life to Christ. We connected very fast and had so many things in common, hit it off right away, and are still the best of friends today. He arrived here from war-torn Iran, and although he was not a child soldier like me, he knew what it was like … surrounded by violence. We hung around together so much that people would get our names mixed up. Our relationship was so close that Fari was the best man at my wedding.

Aileana and I made plans to jog along the beach and then go out surfing today. We decided to meet on the beach around nine this morning. I thought I would surprise her later with something different she would delight in. I wanted this to be a special day of having fun and enjoying each other. She now felt up to exercise. Her ribs still gave her a few twinges when taking deep breaths, but her face was back to its beautiful contours with her lush lips back to their kissable self.
I got back from Hawaii late on Friday, it was a long series of travel and at the time I was exhausted. Both flights had complementary movies,The best of all was my second flight from seattle to Minneapolis, the airliner was an older 757-200. The rear of the headrest in front of you had a touch screen with free tv shows. However days earlier I was in Maui, the first day was when we went the Lao Valley state park, it was relatively small and we forged through the paths quickly, only stopping every few feet to take a picture. The rest of the day was spent getting food items for out hotel room with a kitchen. Cooking in the room would reduce eating out and ultimately reduce cost. “Holiday on a budget” my mother would continuously say, However

Boxers are they just bullies in silk shorts., or are they genuine athletes. Boxing is a physical contest between two combatants who use their fists to defeat their opponent. While it may seem like a common bully there is more to a boxer than just throwing punches. The life of the typical boxer generally consists of time training, career fights, and finally recovering from lifelong injuries.
Tishrei comes and goes every year. I never sit and think about all the wrong things I've done, and I never have much to pray for. All my life I would pray for physical things that I thought I needed. This is the first time in my life I felt like I had what to pray for, and like someone was listening.
Growing up with a father in the military, you move around a lot more than you would like to. I was born just east of St. Louis in a city called Shiloh in Illinois. When I was two years old my dad got the assignment to move to Hawaii. We spent seven great years in Hawaii, we had one of the greatest churches I have ever been to name New Hope. New Hope was a lot like Olivet's atmosphere, the people were always friendly and there always something to keep someone busy. I used to dance at church, I did hip-hop and interpretive dance, but you could never tell that from the way I look now.
Canterbury is an English cathedral city which was a popular pilgrimage site in the Medieval Era. However, in the Middle Ages, the members of the clergy did not always live up to their lofty expectations and standards. The Church’s credibility, at this time, was diminishing due to the actions of its officials. Geoffrey Chaucer, author of The Canterbury Tales, took this pilgrimage and along the way met a few of these questionable clerical figures. During the General Prologue of the work, Chaucer provides a comical representation of all the characters he meets on his journey.
My understanding of human migration was stretched in that I learned a lot about factors that lead to migration and how immigrants are affected by migration. This course taught me that people immigrate to other countries, not because they want to leave their homes, but because they have no other choice. Immigrants are forced to leave behind everything in order to save their lives as they escape from war, violence, poverty, and in search of a better life. Currently in America, whenever people talk about immigration, they often refer to it in terms of a political issue, especially those people in support of Trump 's immigration policy. However, from reading Daniel Groody’s article
