It was early spring of 2013, and I decided to message a girl who I had heard a lot of amazing things about. Her name was Moriah Ebron, but I learned that she went by Mo instead. She was incredibly kind, and we had a lot in common. As the year went on, we learned more about each other and we wanted to meet in person. It was odd to me, having a best friend who lived so far away, but while her parents were planning a camping trip to Virginia, she was planning a visit to West Virginia. During the middle of fall, Mo started the journey from Delaware to West Virginia.

After 12:30pm we were already at my sister’s (Adele) house, ready to give my niece a hug and her annual present. At the moment Maritza wasn’t home, so I stalled for a bit.

Her lip had a big red lump. I managed to not ask her what had happened on her lip. I’m thinking it’s a “I fell down” type accident. The party went off, and

It all began with a simple phone call one night after dinner. “Joe,” my dad hollered up the stairs, “it’s for you. It’s Jackie, and she sounds scared.” As I treaded down stairs to pick up the phone, I was nervous. Jackie usually never calls me on the phone unless it’s something serious, and my dad telling me she sounded scared made it worse. Approximately 30 minutes passed at Jackie whips her silver Mustang convertible into our driveway, and Jackie was leaning on the horn before the car came to a complete stop. Grabbing my coat from the couch, I sprinted out my front door faster than i’ve ran in my whole life. I got immediately in her car and we drove away. I’ve never seen Jackie so scared in my life. She was driving at least 20 miles over

Do you remember when you were a teenager? When you were exceptionally awkward and most concerned with your peer’s opinions? I am certain that you would agree that your teenage years were some of the most stressful of your entire life. Currently, your teenager is experiencing this same anxiety-filled time period, which is overflowing with self-discovery and mistakes, that you once endured. Although, your teenager may not act as though they require your support, they do need it. Nevertheless, you might struggle to provide assistance as you grew up in another environment and cannot understand their decisions. As a result of a difference in values and experiences, teenagers and adults struggle to interact in a positive manner. Yes, this is frustrating

It was three a.m. in the morning, and I had just crawled into my comfy bed. Being that I was twenty one and working at Pizza Hut till one a.m. this was a normal ritual. I heard my phone text alert go off, but I just wanted to get some much needed sleep. Being it had to be a pointless text since it was so late I ignored it. Suddenly my phone ring, it was my younger sister, Amanda, who was seventeen at the time “You need to come get me from Amber’s house”, is all she said very quietly. “Wait it’s three in the morning and you want me to come get you?” Amanda started quickly talking about being at Amber’s house, a party and cops. By now I was anxiously awake, getting dressed and finding my keys. I didn’t know the whole story yet, but it

Growing up, I’ve always been involved in many activities, one of them being that I was on a tennis team. While on the tennis team, I met a girl named Madison, who is still my best friend to this day. As we became closer friends, we liked to hang out and have sleepovers. On one weekend while I was at Madison’s house, her family asked if I wanted to go to the lake with them and stay in their camper. I said yes! As we packed our things and got everything in the car, I was nearly bouncing of the walls I was so eager to get to the lake.

You know everyone has that special someone in their life that shapes them and for me it is my cousin. Since that one day back when I lived in a small apartment made with brown bricks referred to as the “jungle”. Everyone lived in the jungle because it was affordable and there was lots of stores that were walking distance. My entire family lived there which made it special because we were always together, but it was more special l having Janet by my side. All I ever saw was her crawling up the stairs to get to my apartment, saliva drooping down from those chubby cheeks and her bright hazel eyes. As a child I didn’t know she was my cousin but she was always with me. Whenever we played,we always fought with each other over little things like dolls or who would get to hug my grandma first when she came over. I would always laugh at her when I heard her crying because it made me feel like I had done something better than her. We still managed to have our good moments though. It felt as we’d been attached since birth because of how close we were. As months passed and I gained more knowledge, you’d think we would get along more but we didn’t. I thought of her as a spoiled brat, every week I would go down to visit her. She would appear all ecstatic trying to greet me at her door with a bunch of Bratz dolls because she would get new ones every week. She’d basically get everything that she wanted and it would make me so mad because my parents never bought me toys. I would only get the

Trying to find a good friend is like finding a four-leaf clover; it's hard to find, but lucky to have. The term friendship is a unique bond between two individuals—whether it’s a charming boy and a geeky girl, an elder woman and a young adult, or even between a cat and a dog. Friendship takes no form, instead it is the individual trust toward others. Dating back to the creation of the human species, people were familiar with the idea of companionship, in addition of being a companion, it relies on a sense of comfort and protection. Presently, people still share that bond of comfort and protection toward others, but the term companionship has changed into what is now known today as friendship. The world is currently evolving into a digital era, a generation where everyone and everything are connected by the power of computers, including meeting new people across the world where it’s impossible to meet in person. However, even though it’s easily accessible to make friends online, it can never favor those who live locally. The reason why is because in the digital world, people are highly deceptive and are limited in communication while in comparison to those who lives locally. However, it isn’t wrong to make friends online, even though, some of them are misleading. It’s more suitable to have friends locally as they have better communication efficiency, living proof of actual identity, and as well of physically spending quality time together.
