Choices It’s Friday April 25 and it’s my final senior party of the year. My friend bailed on me and my parents are at work so if I want to go I'm just going to have to walk. I would have my beautiful vintage 1969 Chevelle Malibu but my mom took the keys away so I can’t drive it. My parents have always warned me not to walk at night late but it’s only 8:13, that’s not that late. And it’s my last party as a highschooler, I have to go. Walking up stairs to my room to check my makeup and make sure this is the outfit that I want. It’s a cocktail sequin dress with a black leather jacket, and some flats. Lovin the outfit and my makeup I grab my purse, phone, and head down stairs. I texted my parents that i'm heading out, while I lock my door to …show more content…
I feel a big strong hand grab my arm and pull me to a stop. I scream as loud as my little voice and go. Hitting him he grabs my other hand twisting it hard, sending a screaming pain up my arm. Letting go of both my arms. He covers my mouth so I won’t scream, taking his other hand he places is on my back and gets lower and lower down my back. I start to squirm and to get out of his grip but it’s so tight. He start to pull up my dress revealing my underwear. I tried to kick him but he shoved me on the floor, hitting my head hard on a branch. Going dizzy I can feel him climbing on top of me lifting my dress up higher. I wanted to scream, I wanted to run far away, I wish I had listened to my mom. But I couldn’t run away, or scream I was so dizzy from hitting my head I blacked …show more content…
Doctor Todd raises his hands up in the air as if he is surrendering.
“Just tell me your decision on what you decide to do next with the information I just gave you, I will give you some time to think” Walking out the door I cry again. I don’t want this baby, I didn’t ask for any of this. It’s so not fair. I won’t ever be able to live a normal life again. Having a baby to take care of. What if I abort the baby then I won’t have to deal with any of this. No that is so wrong I can’t take away this baby’s life just because of someone’s stupid mistake. Just because I didn’t have a choice or say in this, dosen’t mean I have the right to take away this baby’s right to choose.
I am deciding that I am going to keep this baby, especially for the reminder. Not the reminder what that man did to me. But as a reminder of choice. A choice of keeping this baby, a choice of moving on with my life, especially since I had no choice in this happening. No matter what the circumstances are or how bad this may be I have a choice of keeping this baby. And this baby should be able to have a choice about his or her life. I am going to take action and make decisions for my own self. And not let others make things happen to
I think I should be in the Junior Honor Society. I have met the requirements to receive this opportunity. I would not let this opportunity to waste. I care for the community and do what ever service to help it out. I help do services for the library when they need it. For example on March 10,2017, I helped make capes for sick kids and then gave them happy birthday cards for the birthday kids. I help out my community by helping people shovel their driveway. Like some of my neighbors can't do it so I ask if I can do it for them for free. I look out for people to make sure they are ok. I am a captain of a football team because of my great leadership skills that can be useful. I put effort and time into my work. Around the house I am a role model
The democratic party began in 1848 and is the oldest party that is still active today.
Her boyfriend, also the father of the baby, provides false feedback on the whole situation. “I’ll go with you and I’ll stay with you all the time. They just let the air in and then it’s all perfectly natural” (642) claims the boyfriend. The boyfriends makes the procedure seem like it is no big deal, it happens all the time. These words fight against what the woman might actually want. She knows it is not right to kill an unborn child but is still worried about her boyfriend’s thoughts. She asks her boyfriend, “If I do it you won’t every worry?” (643) Obviously, her decision is influenced by her boyfriend but she still doesn’t feel right about what he says. She knows it will change their or her life forever and contemplates if the boy will still be around if she decides to keep the baby. These choices will affect their life completely but what the girl decides in the end will hopefully turn out for the best. The woman replies to her boyfriend after he asks if she felt better after their long conversation “I feel fine,” she said. There’s nothing wrong with me. I feel fine.” (644). This shows she is tired of talking about the whole situation as she realizes her boyfriend is not really listening to what she says. No one knows the outcome of the choice the couple was faced with, but just like any major decision in life, the final decision will ultimately determine how the rest of their life will
We each have different ideas on what the right or wrong thing to do during a difficult situation is. In David Foster Wallace’s short story “Good People” a young religious couple are hesitant on a decision of abortion when discovering they are expecting an unplanned baby. Not only are they struggling with the situation, they are also having a problem within their relationship. The couple has to face their fears and thoughts on what they were going to do. This is very similar to when I had to make a difficult decision, when I became pregnant with my son at a young age.
The role that millennial leaders play on Capitol Hill has not dramatically changed since the time its generational counterparts held office. I recall moments in history in which political figures such as Thomas Jefferson, Frederick Douglass, and Barack Obama embodied the roles of successful leaders. What all the aforementioned figures, shared in common as well as should any Millennial on Capitol Hill is the spirit to act as a national respondent on injustices, negotiator, and advocate of the people. These qualities have been evoked by all the greatest leaders I can think of and still are relevant to any leader today.
Nurses are dependent on by people, because everyone in life needs medication. I chose to do my Senior Capstone Project over becoming a Nurse, because I feel I am the right candidate. Throughout this research paper I would like to introduce many circumstances a Nurse has to go through, and steps it takes to get to where these life changing leaders are today.
For years, the mother-to-be was, and still is, the sole decision maker of the choice to terminate the pregnancy, whereas the father has little to no say in the matter. In most relationships the decisions are two-sided, parenting included, so why is the choice to keep or abort the fetus one-sided? Men and abortions have never been addressed positively or addressed at all. The stereotype of men wanting an abortion solely to relieve himself of his parental duties is perceived as a norm in today’s culture that generalizes all men. It is essential that the woman and the man involved in the conception of the fetus come to a mutual agreement on whether or not to have an abortion. Every choice up until the point of conception, throughout the pregnancy,
When I think of a senior project, I think of an educational opportunity that help students obtain adult-like skills, interests, and hopefully, maturity. Also, it’s a form of expression for most students, because it’s their chance where they can show and demonstrate what they’ve accomplished throughout their experience with their topic. As I mentioned before, it helps students obtain interests but also helps them acknowledge others and expand their minds to new possibilities or opportunities. I also think that senior projects are beneficial for a student's future because if they worked hard enough on their topic, and chose to pursue it as a career, they could have their senior project as a listed experience to set them aside from other applicants. Even
The well-being and safety of your aging loved one is important to you. Since you cannot be with them every day, you want to make sure they are receiving the best care possible. Although, you know that your senior loved one needs assistance at home they might not be as open to the decision. There are things that you can do to communicate your worries and concerns with your aging senior.
Tears began to fall down my cheeks as he pressed his body into my back. I then felt....pressure....down below. And a searing pain ripped through my entire body as he forced himself inside of me. I could feel warmth running down my legs. I don't think it was water. I closed my eyes tight and tried to think of my family and making spaghetti with my mom and playing the piano with nana. With every thrust I felt myself sinking deeper and deeper into long lost memories of a time when I was truly innocent. I didn't even realize it had ended until I woke up in the medical ward 4 hours later. I was lying on my belly, my ass covered in blood-soaked bandages. They told me I had been stitched. They told me u would be okay. One of them leaned down and whispered to me "you deserved it" with a slight chuckle. I never saw their face. I shuddered to think that they could be treating me regularly. With such disgust and disregard for my
The United States of America has two major political parties, Democrats, and the Republicans. President Trump‘s approval rating throughout The first few months of his term compared to that of former President Obama reveals why certain sections of America like one over the other.
A political party is a partnership of individuals with similar beliefs who collaborate with each other to win elections and gain more control over the government. Political parties challenge each other for political power and for the capability to put their beliefs and policies into implementation (Sparknotes Editors, 2010). The first party, created in 1787, formed because Hamilton and other leaders wanted a strong central government; they called themselves the Federalists. In 1796, anti - Federalists joined together with Jefferson because instead of a strong central government, they believed in a strong national (federal) government (Scholastic Library Publishing, 2007). Since then, about 50 political parties have formed in the United States;
Your Pleasure Should Not Be My Pain: The imagery in Mark Wills Don't Laugh at Me It would be nice if we were all accepted just as is, and loved unconditionally. Mark Wills is an American country music singer, and in his video, “Don't Laugh at Me” that is just not the case for some. There are many people in the world who have been or are bullied, judged or laughed at just for being themselves.
The rising sun was orient in the blue sky. Dewdrops sparkle in the morning sun. Someone patted me on the back. The man whipped out a knife. He was a fat clumsy and dirty looking man. His hair had been badly cut and the ends were uneven. The sight made me stop dead in my tracks. Fear stole into my heart. He cowed me with his threats. The smell of smoke clung to his clothes.On the one hand, he had pressed and held both my hands. On the other hand, he continually stroked my body. He just bear down on me with all his strength so I was unable to repel and move. The rough cloth pricked my skin.Then I just lost it and started screaming. "Stop it !" I bellowed at him. My word made no impression on him. No one was on the scene at the time. Why he did it? What was his intention in doing that? How could this happen to me? Why should it be me? After that, every step I took sent the pain shooting up my thighs. I could not breathe. As I straightened up, the ache in my back grew worse. I bore the pain without a word of complaint. I thought it would
On October 31st 2014, I attended my best friend’s halloween party. We all had to dress up and arrive at her house at ten o’clock. This was the first non-birthday party I had ever attended and I was excited to finally be out of the house past nine o’clock. My best friend and I decided to get ready together. She chose to dress up as Marilyn Monroe and I as Daisy from The Great Gatsby. Our costumes were intricate and realistic. She wore the typical Marilyn Monroe white dress and a bright red lip; while I wore a gold tiered flapper dress with a jeweled and feathered headdress. By the time we were finished getting ready, the party was about to start. By eleven o’clock the party was finally getting started. The music was booming and everyone was dancing; when suddenly I received a text. It read, “I see you.” It was signed by someone named “JJ.” I didn’t think anything of it because it was Halloween and
