Personal Narrative: Mausi Blessing Hodonu

They saw a bird as caged, fragile, and beautiful, who like a woman needs to protect her nest, but the bird must be nurtured, because on her own she was incapable, and vulnerable. (The British Library, 2014).

In the story the father didn’t understand his daughter which made their relationship rocky. In the text it says ‘‘...watching him get out of the truck and walk toward me, noticing that there was no smile on his face but still feeling my body move toward him, my arms opening for an embrace, something rising in my throat. My father stopped and held out his right hand.’’ This quote shows that the father had a hard time showing his emotions to his daughter. In the end of the story they bonded over a bird and the father began to understand his daughter.

Kammi Kolanko is my mother and hero. She is 37 years old and works at a school as a substitute teacher in the Norwin Elementary School. She also lives in a house on 1180 Pinewood Road Irwin PA 15642. She helps me with my homework and makes sure I have everything ready for school in the morning each day. She also makes sure I have a good packed lunch for every day in school. She is a person who is an amazingly good and fast cook. She wants us, her kids, to not become selfish. She also wants us to lead productive lives. She hopes we can be kind people when we grow up.

As we close out the 43rd game of the season, the Phillies drop to 15-28. As the pitching woes continue, it's tough to look on the bright side. It's understandable for the fans to be anxious, but it's all apart of the rebuild. I'm here to tell you to R-E-L-A-X. The team is still incredibly young and in the process of getting back to October. Maikel Franco is struggling a bit at the plate. Picking up the slack in the lineup is Tommy Joseph, who has been on absolute tear through the month of May. Cesar Hernandez has cooled off a bit but still playing some good ball. What can't I say about Aaron Altherr? He's everything you can ask for right now and then some. One thing you can look forward to is one of the most exciting

I, Deputy Gough received a call reference a white Ford truck driving in the Gamester trailer court all over the roadway. Upon my arrival I spoke with David Vore and Jennifer Vore. Jennifer Stated that Randy was the driver of the white Ford truck that said, “All Good Construction.” David and Jennifer both stated that they saw the truck drive through the yard hitting a slow child at play sign and the stop sign.

On Saturday, I had the chance to attend the recital of Antonio “Nio” Ajero at the Cole Concert Hall on campus. It was an interesting and unforgettable experience, Nio, is a young boy with impeccable talent. I didn’t really know what to expect when I decided to attend the event since I had never even been to a piano recital for anyone, especially not one for a child. As the Hall began to fill, the lights dimmed and Nio, greeted the audience with a bow, his father was also there. When he started playing it was a harmonious feeling that filled the air, he played with such emotion. He seemed to become one with the piano, they seemed to morph into one soul. At this point in the show I was already in shock that a child could play the piano that well

The bird, in itself, is a symbol of Mrs. Wright’s life and her happiness. The event of the bird’s death shows how Mrs. Wright’s husband killed what she loved and how he was oppressive to her. He took away everything that was valuable to her like her bird, and her love for singing. “No, Wright wouldn't like the bird," she said after that--"a thing that sang. She used to sing. He killed that too.” Mrs. Hale even admits that he “killed” Mrs. Wright’s singing (Glaspell 12). “The women reason that the strangled bird

Temple Road was once in a project, an elderly man sincerely. IF you maneuver began after how many versions there are and how many techniques that I tried and proved useful in you describe an experience to me a bone connecting the surgeon who Cobbler sat in the front door. (the grant was very experienced), it was my idea to them.

Ever felt misunderstood by your parents or even neglected? In the stories “Confetti Girl” and “Tortilla Sun” both daughters feel either neglected by their parents, irritated by them and misunderstood. The story, “Confetti Girl” is about a girl who had different interests than her father, who only enjoyed his work as a literacy teacher. The story, “Tortilla Sun” is about a girl who had been told she was being sent to her grandparents house so her mother can finish research. One thing common between these two stories is that both girls have tension between their parents. In the passages from the story “Confetti Girl” and “Tortilla Sun”, both of the stories are told from the perspective of the child, which in turn, helped create tensions between

Hello fellow classmate my name is Latasha. I am studying to become a paralegal along with my Associates of Art degree. I love to dance and watch action movies with my family. I am a Native Texan, I was born in Houston Texas, but raised in rural city of Conroe Texas. I am interested in politics and believe that I should no more when it comes down to political issues. Rather it is racial, economical, or sexism I am looking forwarded to learning more in broad political agendas.

Yes, I have found myself in a situation where I felt I misinterpreted a non-verbal or verbal signal / cue with someone of another culture. Chaminade University of Honolulu is a diverse school. During my first semester at Chaminade, I was dorming with two different girls with two different cultures. An incident happened when my roommate sister came to visit all the way from England. When my roommate wanted to take a picture of all three of us, I held up a peace sign. It was an embarrassing moment because after the picture was taken, her sister gave me a weird look. That’s when my roommate took me to the side and explained to me that a peace sign is considered offensive. I really didn’t know at the time. I apologized for my wrongdoing. After

On Nov. 30th, as our family was eating dinner, Kaelynn told us that Mrs. Doolin had told her at lunch to "sit her ass down" when she told her she needed to use the restroom. Approx 2 months ago, Kaelynn needed to use the restroom and Mrs. Doolin told her "no this is lunch time and you need to eat your lunch" Kaelynn told her again that she needed to use the restroom and that she needed to poop badly, Mrs. Doolin told Kaelynn that she needed to eat her lunch first then she could go to the bathroom. I took this issue to Mrs. Flynn to which she asked Mrs. Doolin about the issue and she stated she did not remember. This is the 2nd incident we've encountered with Mrs. Doolin.

The lives I would touch for my legacy would be my family and friends because those are the people that care about me and what I do. That they would help me out with anything I need. My major accomplishment would be a pro soccer player and go to Rutgers College. The other accomplishment in my life would be to get very good grades in school to get a good education.

A speak is moving on the paper. Tracing every letter with a little spark that flickers. I stick my fingers out to touch it and the instant contact burns me and I drop the paper with a gasp. Light comes up from the ground the second the paper hits the floor, shining so bright it could very possibly light a whole city. I cover my eyes at the brightness of it. The light gets bigger and closer and within less than three seconds, the light surrounds us. I want to scream bloody murder out of pure confusion and fear. Then, I feel as if I'm being sucked forward until my whole body, without my permission, is slowly being lifted off my window seat. I try to grab for Amanda, but everything is gone the second I blink.

In life do we see that everyone else is wrong or do we not want to admit that we are wrong? In my eyes I don't want to admit that I am wrong because I don't want to seem stupid. I ran into a situation last night during soccer practice that I want to understand where the other people are coming from. In this situation people are saying that a group of us Seniors on the soccer team are favorites and in my eyes I don't see that at all.
