Personal Narrative: Sextillion Emissions

Here I am, standing with a mind overfilled with whats, ifs, options and possibilities. All beginning with a ticket, but not just any ticket, a ticket of my choice. I can go anywhere in the world, see anything or meet anyone. The world holds an abundance of magical cities filled with beautiful views. Paradises’ to temporarily ease reality and magical places filled with superficial smiles to cover up the hurt and evil within the country. So where would I go?

Dad suggested that I write you instead of talking to you over the phone, so I’m somewhat begrudgingly listening to him. As I’ve learned, there really isn’t a good place to start, so here it goes. I’m gay. There it is, I said it. I am romantically and sexually attracted to men instead of women. Around 13, I thought it was just a phase that I would grow out of, and I didn’t really process it much, but as time went on it just became more and more apparent that I was NOT going to “just grow out of it”. I started hating myself more and more, thinking that if I had more willpower, more faith, if I prayed harder that I could change. I thought I was broken, and my health reflected this. I started throwing up regularly, especially when I was stressed.

There are eight planets in the solar system Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. There is also a Dwarf planet Pluto.

Throughout recorded history there had only been seven known objects in our solar system. These seven planets were the sun, the earth's moon, earth, and four other objects. Uranus had not been discovered as a planet but was categorized or labelled as a star by numerous people.

You see Jackie trusted that no matter what I did (big head) ―I would come home to her. This trust would become a trait I'd desire and exhibit throughout the rest of my journey. My regret is that the lack of understanding of how to properly use this trust cost me, Jackie. As I eventually tried a relationship with an upper classmate. By the time I realized the importance of that trust trait to my growth in manhood, life had moved forward — Masculine Vulnerabilities.

"NASA's Kepler mission has doubled the number of known planets outside of our solar system. In what can only be described as a "bonanza", 715 new planets have been reported thanks to the Kepler space telescope's planet-hunting mission. Using a new method for verifying potential planets led to the volume of new discoveries from Kepler, which aims to help humans search for other worlds that may be like Earth."

This is for all of my homegirls that have decided to explore outside of what they’re accustomed to. The girls that, despite understanding the fluidity of sexuality, are still freaked out by how this one guy seems to have caught your attention beyond a “friend” level.

After I submitted the last journal, I feel very motivated and I was extremely ready for a more progressive approach towards reducing my risk factor. Surprisingly, I went to a birthday party on Sunday, March 19 at 5 pm. I did not do well at the party because I ate two slices of cake, fried chicken, and cookies as well. I did not count my calories neither did I reduce the amount of sugar consumed. As a result, I felt horrible after leaving the party, and I could not believe that I consumed a large amount macronutrients. Moreover, I need the discipline to maintain a healthy body and to reduce my risk factor. The following Monday to Thursday after the party, I ate a large salad, and an apple every day. I drink plenty of water to hydrate my body

On Saturday evening September 2,1017, at an approximately 8:10 p.m., I was sitting on the couch living room. With a PWS in my arms, Angie B. was sitting on the sofa as well, but she was on her cell phone. The PWS was crying, and I was trying to calm him down. I asked Angie had she took out the trash in the bathroom because it was almost full? Angie replied that is what the 10:0 people do. I said, “Angie come on be a team player and take out the trash, and by the way your PWS laundry basket is full you might want to pull it.” She continues to look down at her phone. All at once, Angie jumped up off the couch, looked at me, and said that I have been on her case for three days now. I said, " I haven't been here for three days." Angie left the

In 2013, an estimated 232,340 new cases of invasive breast cancer were expected to be diagnosed among US women, as well as an estimated 64,640 additional cases of in situ breast cancer.That year, approximately 39,620 US women were expected to die from breast cancer. During May of 2001, I’ll never forget visually experiencing what cancer does to people. I saw my grandmother grow extremely sick and then die due to breast cancer. In that moment I was thoroughly confused as to why doctors couldn’t prevent this from happening; what didn’t they know? What didn’t they do? I lost my best friend to this horrible disease, and as I grew older, I realized I didn’t want anyone to feel such pain.

Mark Zuckerberg once said,” Nothing influences people more than a recommendation from a trusted friend”. In life we are constantly being told how we should act and who we should look like by society as well as our family and peers. When it comes to sexuality influence can come from most anywhere your parents, your sex education class, your religion, or your friends. Usually it is the combination of these influences that shape you and make you who you are today.

“You would be prettier if you wore makeup,” adults that barely know me say. “Of course you want children,” they inform me. They ask “Why don't you have a boyfriend?” As a female I have become accustomed to this objectification of my body and life choices. In the eyes of my community and my country, a woman’s value is directly linked to what she has to offer a man so my unwillingness to change myself to attract male attention makes me a poor excuse of a woman. I have to constantly hear my male peers mock girls who wish to pursue a career in a male dominant field, claiming women just aren't capable of the same thing as men. Women across the United States, including myself, are raised to feel inferior to men, taught we are incapable of doing

Today, I started early because he called me a day before saying if i can come and help him and i did. We took down transmission from a ford truck, and it was a manual too and we fixed the clutch system because the old one was pretty wasted and it wasn't working right. Then we went to a near by Auto Zone store to buy the new one and we came back we installed the new one and put everything back in its place. later on when everything was good we took it for a test drive and it worked perfectly fine. after we had finished with that truck, there was a Nissan truck that need to be check and we found out that there was a problem with the intake system. it had some carbon within it and we cleaned it and replace some little parts. we finish that truck

First of all, the word Silent can apply to the natural world. When I lived in the countryside of Vietnam on the other side of the globe, about 4:30 every morning I woke up with my mom and went to Church. My mom and I rode on a small bicycle and on the road which was close to the river. Along the river there weren’t any boats going backwards and forwards with the water. We rode on that bike; there was no sound around us. The atmosphere around us was so amazing, because I could hear the sound of the mosquitoes flying beside my ears. That’s how silent it was in the
