A famous american novelist by the name of Marilynne Robinson once said, “You never know when you might be seeing someone for the last time.” My Great-Grandma, also known as Mamani, was on of most important people in my life. Although, I never really understood what she would say to me because she only spoke Armenian. She once knew English, but her Alzheimer's stole any memory of it. But no matter what, she ALWAYS had a smile on her face. That was why I adored her so much. Even though she let her Alzheimer’s take some of her memory away, she wouldn’t let it take her personality. Mamani was a very fancy woman. She would never leave the house without any bright red lipstick perfectly smeared on her lips no matter where it was she was going. She always had AT LEAST five bracelets or watches on each wrist. She’d always had a jacket on filed with fake diamonds and rhinestones all over it. She was so amazing. I’ll never forget her. On Friday, September 8th, 2017 at exactly 8:26 PM, my mom got a call from her uncle explaining that Mamani was gone. That she died peacefully and not painfully. At that moment I was in my room reading, when I heard screaming and stomping on the ground. For a couple of seconds I thought my mom was excited. I thought her crying was her laughing. I was wrong. When I got out of my room I witnessed my mom on the ground hyperventilating. Crying at the top of her lungs. “She’s gone!” “My grandma’s gone,” my mom screamed, slamming her knees to the floor rocking

On November 27, 2015, my mom and I took Omi out for bagels. Her favorite restaurant in the whole world was the New York Bagel Shop. When we got there, she refused to eat. She didn’t eat a single thing. She slept for rest of the day and refused to eat when she woke up. At this point, we all knew it was time. It had been three days, she hadn’t eaten or drank and water. She was laying in bed with her whole family by her side. I had been next to her bed for the last couple of days. She passed away peacefully on November 30, 2015.
Religion has always been around for many years and will continue to live on. Since 2014, there are an estimated 4,200 different religions, all over the world each believing in different things Having their own set of rules and tradition that must be followed. Storytelling became a way to give people advice or telling people what would happen if they disobey their religious rules or tradition.

Losing grandma was and up until now the worst feeling I’ve ever felt…On this date, August 18, 2007 at 8:00 pm I received a telephone call.

Ever get the chance to put together your own outfit for the day? Well, I mean literally have you ever had to sew together your outfit? If not, well let me start it off with “WOW!”, grandma's work isn’t as easy as it seems. Not only did i learn how difficult it is to sew, but i had the chance to be able to express my funny side. This week i chose as one of my portfolios a unique project, where i sewed together my outfit. At first, i envisioned it being a joke, since i would never wear it personally, but I saw the fun and good vibes it would bring to the classroom atmosphere. We started off with the simple idea of creating one of the outfits used by one of the boys in the movie, The Sound of Music. First, we had to sketch out a drawing of the outfit to get an

My granny is someone who has had a positive impact on my life. One reason why my granny is a positive influence is because she has always taught me what is right and what is wrong. Another way my granny influences me in a positive way is because she always tells me she is proud of me and all of my accomplishments. This makes me want to do even better to make her happy and even more proud of me. My granny is like a second mother to me and always has been.

For many nights, only these words kept bouncing around my head. Leaving me to curl up on myself. Hoping to sleep and dream about her, dream of all the good memories spent in her company.
