I never would think about showing an animal. I decided to go wild and show a steer my junior year, I did not think about showing an animal so big before but it was worth the wild. I knew it would be hard work, dedication and responsibility. I worked so hard to get where I wanted that steer and it sure did pay off. Being successful is something that someone feels when they work for something that they tried so hard on and then succeeded in it. Success is the way I felt when I was getting ready for the show while I was standing to be called in my class and how I felt when I got out of the show ring.
It was a hot day in April, two years ago; around 6:00 p. m. I was getting ready for our annual county show. When me and my friend Kylee had just

I set my steer up where I was supposed to and when the judge came up to me, he asked some questions while he felt on my steer. “What breed is your steer and how much does he weigh?” asked the judge. I answered, “He is a shorthorn steer and weighs 1,100 pounds’ sir.” He moved onto the next steer. The lead guy moved us around and the judge started picking. If the contestant got picked first, then they were last; and if it was three other steers left, the contestant would be in the top of their class. While I was looking at the judge, I was not paying attention around me, so I decided to look next to me. When I did, I realized I was in the top 4! I got serious and set my steer up just as I am supposed to; I made him look fantastic! The judge put up his fingers as numbers to us to tell us what place we got. I did not realize that I got 3rd place out of 10 in my class. I went to shake the judges hand after he was done talking about why he placed this way. I walked out of the ring, my ag teacher was jumping with excitement and my parents were there to give me a hug and take more pictures. I was so excited; it did not hit me that I got 3rd until the night was

“Life is like a box of chocolates you never know what your gonna get” (Gump, Forest) sounds familiar huh? When I ponder on the idea of an electrifying episode in my life, I think about the unexpected things that have happened. However something out of the ordinary “tickled my fancy”. After all my years of thinking it was impossible, the improvable became reality. Now just for a second I want you to sit back, relax, and enjoy my journey of becoming Student Body President.

I was in 8th grade, but I walked out that high school gym with my shoulders back and head high like I was the big man on campus. My confidence went through the roof. In one day I had gone from extreme anger with my parents. Then I experienced terror as my parents drove me to the high school. Surprisingly this turned around to confidence and pure excitement for the years to come.
Allen had fallen from the ceiling after another short hour or so, it turned out that the small lime green, beeping and glowing contraption was an energy shield. Something Mike had commended him on retrieving, telling him how crucial that will be for him in battle. Phoenix smiled as the days events played out over in his head, they were getting stronger now, they’d escaped a head Elark facility without a single fatality. The three grown ups were in the kitchen talking, Phoenix expected they were discussing their next moves. Daniel was sitting at Carter’s desk by the window with his head propped up on his hand, absentmindedly tapping a pen on the hard wood and looking lost in thought. Carter was in the shower where he’d been for the past 30
On Thursday December 8th 2016, my friends and I were in Leah Zara Myers room who invited Andrew to join us. At approximately 23:30, my friends left the room for a short time leaving me and Andrew by ourselves. He made an inappropriate comment to me saying, “You don't realize how attractive you are to men, I just look at you and find you very attractive. I realize I'm making you uncomfortable, but I thought I'd tell you.” I thought this comment was bizarre, but just decided not to reply. At about 00:30, I went to bed and met my two friends in my room. As I left Leah's room, Andrew touched my elbow and asked me if I wanted him to walk me to my room. I said no and left the room. When I arrived back in my room, I told my one friend the strange
Starting anything can be extremely difficult. Whether it be starting a new job, school, or even a family everyone has or will start something. In most cases, individuals learn best by experience. One cannot experience unless he or she starts. Because I love to start things that are generally chanllenging to others, I decided to start an online accessory company: The Purple Collar LLC (limited liability company). I have been told on several occasions that I am an old soul. I decided to take these words and utilize them to do something that I was interested in. I have wanted to be a CEO since I was in the 4th grade. I asked myself, “Why wait until you are old to be mature and do appropriate grown up things?”
In January of 2013, my dad said that we were going to get some paint. Inside the hot, non-air conditioned Prius, with my brother Ryan and my dad, we finally stopped half an hour later at a Bass Pro Shop in Victoria Gardens. My dad told us that we were going to take a break and just to sit down near the entrance of the store. As a man and a kid slowly approached us, I suddenly realized that we were waiting for two of our family's friends. (I'll just say that the man's name is John and the kids' name is Jason).
“We will now do a few simple stretching exercises designed to remove tension and stress to help you relax.” “This exercise.” Sly said. “Is something you must practice every day.” “Put your hands on the table close them and make a fist.” Squeeze as tight as you can.” “Now tighten every muscle in your body, stomach, arms, legs, everything as tight as you can.” “Hold it for a count of ten release the tension very slow, very very slow.” “Now do it five more times.”
Imagine that it is your birthday, and all you get is to go to a horse show. Would you be happy? I know I would because I admire horses.
I gently closed my father’s car door and walked alone as best I could to the cool stone etched with the two words that mean so much to me, Elizabeth Jane, my mother’s name. I know my father is watching me. He couldn’t bring himself to the place where his wife’s dead body lies and I respect that, but I could, I needed to or else I wouldn’t be able to keep myself from believing that she isn’t gone. My father agreed to bring me here, but I know him, therefore I know to watch my actions until I can fully convince him that visiting my mother is healthy in my personal journey of grieving. My father is worried for me, that much is obvious. I knelt beside her grave and my thin legs brushed the vibrant green grass. It is spring. Spring bursts with life,
As I stood in my cabin with my cousins changing into our swimsuits I couldn’t wait tonights game. We were at Stoney Glen a camp that my cousins and I go to each year. Every night we play a game and tonight the game was the water olympics.
Elene exited the car and followed her father to Mr. Yu’s home. To piano lessons: 3:00 pm. Arrived and opened the gate: 2:45 pm. She entered the house: 2:50 pm. Her father led her over to the bench as she waited for her turn. Ten minutes from now. Just like clockwork.
It’s my opinion, immovable objects and unstoppable forces should not get married. When I was nine I didn’t have a personal concept of what divorce meant. I had an “it could never happen to me” mindset. By December of 2010, it was official, I was now from a broken home. I found myself part of two very different households, both of which have shaped me into the person I am today.
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.
