Ah! I see you have come to hear my story. Well, I warn you now; I am advanced in years and might forget some parts. My story is filled with adventure, new beginnings, and confusion. But enough! I will begin. I was a girl of just 15, ready to explore the outside. I lived in an ancient city, named Baktrahkpi. This city was on a mysterious island, where many centuries ago, it was decided by the gods that each quarter moon the island would vanish and appear in a new spot, never quite the same one. One morning, on my 15th birthday I decided I wanted to go and explore, for I was now considered a woman. I knew the island like that back of my hand, but there was this other land in the distance that was miles away. I didn’t tell my parents where …show more content…
We got into the boat, it was clammy, but the coolness was refreshing. We rowed in silence for awhile; letting the waves drift us closer to the unknown land by the second. Then he said: “Why is it you want to venture there? It is safe and comfortable at home, why bother?” I replied: “We know the island like our houses. We have explored the jungle hundreds of times. It was time for a change of scenery.” He grunted in reply. Again silence. I was beginning to notice how much I hated silence. An eerie mist was growing. I didn’t think anyone (not even fishermen) had traveled out this far. I was starting to get cold. Sif had been smart and brought his cloak. I was too excited to bother. As we reached the half-way point to the land, I got nervous. I knew he wouldn’t be happy if I told him to turn around, but the sudden thought of a new place frightened me. Never once had I been off of our island, and the thought of getting lost was looming ahead.
I finally said: “Sif, if we get lost will you know the way back?” he replied: “Yes, if the current is on our side, then we will be back safely.”
“And what if a storm approaches?”
“I would do everything in my power to keep us together… but enough questions. We are almost there.” I caught my first glimpse of the city. It was nothing like I’d ever seen before! The resplendent sun setting on the towering buildings was beautiful! Everywhere you looked was a new
Journeying through the mountainous desert towards this remote, yet beautiful park, I was shocked by the extent of the untamed land. I searched my mind, tempted to recall a time. I gazed upon an expanse of earth so untouched by human hands. Before me, the earth and sky unfolded, stretching for miles with little interruption. The closer we journeyed to the park, the more I began to feel isolated from the rest of the developed world. Overcome with feelings of excitement and curiosity, I felt
“I would be honored to invite Demetri Ford and his little sister, Tiana Ford, to the stage!”
It was a fine Sunday Morning. I was about to experience a fun day of baseball. It was a beautiful afternoon for a trip to the ballpark. I could hardly wait to get there to experience all of the fun things. I was with my brother and his girlfriend and my two nephews and me.I got there by car with my brother's girlfriend and me and my nephew. When we got there we went to the park there and played on the playground. Then we headed up to our seats which were all the way at the top ,one of the best seats in the house. I went down to the concession stand and my brother gave me $20 to buy three pops and a small pop for my nephews and me. The guys who comes to you and give you the ice cream and stuff. we got slushies

Ever since I was little my life has been changed. It all started when I was 8 and woke up to my parents fighting. They were throwing things at each other, calling each other names, and hitting and pushing each other around. I went outside of my room to go to the bathroom and saw my birth mother, Katie, laying in the floor with a pool of blood by her head. As soon as i saw this I went back to my room and pretended that i never saw anything. I tried to go to sleep, but I found that unbearable. The next morning I was getting ready for school and I noticed that my birth mother wasn't there. It was then at the moment that I realized that she was never coming back. I continued on with my day and when i get home later that day my father wanted to
1st and 2nd class went first and 3rd waited. Once we were finally allowed to get off the boat we were lead to a baggage room. Up until this point I thought we would keep our belongings all the way through the island. We packed our favorite toys and some food but the most important item, was a family photo. Mom, Dad, my sister, Grandma, Grandpa, an I where all in there. Grandma and Grandpa died of old age, but Mom on the other hand died of sickness 3 years before. I stared to cry when looking at it.” Sei stark.” Said
When we got there, we saw a gift shop, and an area with a bunch of cool things in display cases with information mounted on them. It was so cold and refreshing there, it was almost as if i was
I am going to tell you a little bit of what I did this summer. School just got out and the real work begun, I started work on the first day of summer. I also played in a golf league in Gregory this summer with my dad.
Kayla informed the QP if her brother was bothering her she would get in his face and scream leave me alone then push him as she was backing up.
As a Lieutenant in the Northfield Village Fire Department I was responsible to respond to and supervise fire suppression and medical emergency duties by evaluating situations, supervising and coordinating operations, ensuring personnel safety, coordinating emergency incident response, conducting overhaul operations to minimize smoke and fire damage, determining cause. During emergency and training operations I worked closely with other department coordinating emergency operations using the incident command system. I was also responsible for preparing and provide training classes for station personnel, completing fire and EMS reports, preparing correspondence and maintaining personnel records.
Being healthy and staying active is not something my family has been worried about. I have to be honest,I thought the same thing before I started wrestling. I ate anything I wanted too, I was not too active. I like to sleep in and play video games. I was out of shape and couldn’t run very far without losing my breath. This all changed when I started to wrestle.
Dusten, Amie, and I all came home from middle school after a pretty rough day. Well, it was a rough day for me. I opened the garage door so we could enter the house because we never used the front door. When I opened the door, though, I was not expecting to see what I did. In a kennel that looked like it could fit a full grown dog, there was a little puppy. An english bulldog to be exact. When he saw us, he started barking at us. So I walked up to the cage and started to pet him through it. This calmed him down and he soon stopped barking.
The brain is 3.3 pounds, has 86 billion nerve cells, and makes up 2% of 100% of people. Though this organ belongs to all people, it is still unique to everyone. The decision made, emotions felt, and life that was lived can be held in the palms of a person's hand.
There were many things I enjoyed about my summer. I learned some valuable lessons and had a lot of fun. This was my last official summer before I become an adult; next summer will be filled with college preparations so I had to have fun while i still had the chance. Over my break I worked, I spent time with friends, and I also started driving.
“Although I know most of you want to go out and explore the surface right now, It would cause humans to panic and probably attack. I know someone that will willingly
