A Special Day

A special day when something unusual or memorable happened, was when I was able to be with my family after the hurricane Irma. I was with my father and his family. During the hurricane, I was worried because I wasn't able to be in contact with my mom, and my other side of my family. My family where I live was so worried also because I was supposed to travel earlier, we got our flight canceled several times. I was so upset I wasn't able to have electricity, my mom trying to get in contact with everyone

dear to my heart till this very day not because it was my birthday but because it was a day that altered my life forever and made me who I am today. April 8th was celebrated quietly in the Hallo household annually but during the year 2012, there was a modification. I myself could feel it because usually during my special day I was always the first to wake up but the year 2012 came with a change, I was the last to wake up that day which was rare on any given day for I am the type of person who admires

“Special Day” Krissy Birdsall Life is full of surprises. We all know that. We don't know when the surprises will come, and what they have in store for us. I guess I was due for a surprise, and not a very good one. Manahassett Creek Park will forever be known for their luxurious turf field, and the cold that comes with the price of being built ten feet from water. This field is where my soccer clubs plays every weekend, almost every week in the fall season. It was October 22nd, just under a week

On September 23 was one of the most special days of my life. My brother Kevin got married to Amber Hayes and adopted her daughter Weslea. My Sisters Sydney and Avery and I all had a flight in Austin to Cincinnati where my brother would be picking us up.My mom got us out of school early to get ready for our flight.When we got to the airport I got a little nervous because it was my first time going on the plane without medicine for me not to freak out.we ended up having a layover in Chicago for almost

Usually, Charity lay in bed a few minutes moaning, groaning, and stretching before getting up- she hated getting out of bed in the mornings; however, knowing that something special was going to happen that day, she sprang out of bed like a jackrabbit ready to go. She felt that it was going to be a special day, but also had a nagging pain in her innards that foretold a warning of some sort; a premonition that everything was not as it seemed. Hesitating a moment, she stopped mid-stride to question

The classroom I observed is a special day class with Mrs. Cody, and it contains 11 students from first grade to third grade. The 11 student desks are arranged separately in rows facing the front of the classroom; the teacher’s desk is at the front of the classroom with two large whiteboards and the teacher aide’s U tables are situated behind the student desks. Behind the student desks is a listening center with six laptops. The walls are simply decorated with typical educational posters such as the

Some scenes in the movie The Day After Tomorrow were very plausible and likely to occur in real life, while others were simply made from special effects and could most likely never occur in day-to-day life. One very possible scene was animals sensing the weather and being able to escape before a massive storm was soon to hit. According to http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/can-animals-predict-disaster/tall-tales-or-true/131/, “Plenty of studies have shown that some animals can sense major

This past Sunday I volunteered at Special Olympics. It was my first time volunteering there beings I wasn’t able to make it last year, and it truly was inspiring. I honestly have never seen more determination, dedication, sportsmanship, and smiles packed into one place. My athlete buddy was in three events, which was the softball throw, the 100-meter dash, and the 4 x 100 relay, and I stuck with her from the first event all the way until the very last event of the day. It got to be pretty long, and

Tuesday was my first day in my general education classroom. When I arrived, there was a substitute in my classroom for the first half hour of the day, because Ms. Keane was in an IEP meeting. The substitute and the paraprofessional showed me around the classroom and told me about some of the students. There are 20 students in the classroom, and two of them are English language learners. After a short morning meeting with the substitute we took the children to gym class. I watched gym for a few

Memorial Day is a special holiday for those who’ve lost a loved one in military service. For me, the holiday is two-fold. Yes, I remember the passing of my military dad, , but it’s also the day I remember all the best things about my father. It’s when I celebrate Father’s Day. My father was always proud to be a soldier. Sure, he would grumble about Army politics or how the service caused him to have bad knees and feet. Yet. he was good at being a solider. This was ironic because he did not choose
