I-Pass

Little did I know the school pass I received from the office ended up being more than what I had originally thought. As a sophomore, I knew that most of the passes were for guidance appointments or doctor’s appointment. After the pass was handed to me, several thoughts ran through my mind. What is this pass for? Maybe this is just for an appointment I had completely forgotten about. Or could I be in trouble? My legs moved quickly down the stairs and through the main hallway, shuffling in between

the disturbance in the pass had disappeared. To avoid being overheard by others riding close by, Larah spoke in low tones to Riasean. “What do you know about getting to the Valley of Eternal Darkness?” “The valley is accessible through the New Moon Gate in the Black Tower of the Citadel. But getting to the gate and using it will be difficult. The Oligarchs of the Citadel keep tight control over access. They have enchanted the entrance so that you must have a ‘Moonstone’ to pass through it. In ages

She had sensed his presence before he passed through the tent flap, so it was no surprise when the black-robed figure of Drakar enter. “I have a prisoner,” he said in his usual dry gravelly voice. “Bring him in.” Drakar yanked a smaller cloaked figure into the tent. With his other gloved hand, he jerked back the cloak’s hood to reveal a blond-haired young man with a bruised face, and left eye swollen shut. Dried blood appeared on his lips. He blinked and looked at Faline, a curious mixture of resentment

The wind was whipping and the rain was coming down hard. I awoke that dreary Saturday morning incredibly nervous, slipped on my black Adidas, then rushed out the door to team breakfast. A single thought lingered on every player’s mind as we quietly devoured our hearty meals of eggs and pancakes at our teammate’s kitchen table: it always came back to Monadnock. Year after year, it seemed as though Monadnock would be the team to defeat us and wreck our season; they were simply inescapable. But

Last night at Swank Field in Heath, Ohio the Newark Catholic Green Wave limped into action against a undefeated and healthy Heath Bulldog team. I think many of the nice size crowd, who knew that the smaller school, minus five starters had no chance of winning and most likely knew that this one would be ugly and that is just what this game was. Emotion can carry a team just so far and that's how this one started. On the Bulldogs first drive their multi-talented quarterback,Aaron Latiolais was

GED Exam I was a 17-year-old pregnant high school dropout the first time I took the General Educational Development (GED) test. It was in the summer of the year 2001 on a beautiful sunny day at our local university. The GED test was to provide me with a high school diploma equivalent. I had months of preparation and practice tests. I was a fast learner and always well prepared. I was confident and very adamant in passing this test. That is, until I got the results of the GED test. The test room scenery

has impacted how I am as a person today. “Let’s go panthers, let’s go!” the crowd chanted as I sat on the bench once again watching the game intensely. Sweat was dripping down my teammates face like a melting popsicle on a hot summer day. It was my freshman year during the last game of the season that I questioned why am I here? I worked my butt off during practice like the rest of my teammates, how come I barely played. It was at this moment I realized I sucked at basketball and I did not want to

our social lives to train were finally put to work. It was it. It was the NLL championship track meet. Right from when I woke up the day felt different. My stomach churned and all I could think about was how much I wanted to win. I could barely eat because my nerves were nibbling away at me. As I was getting driven to school, I kept picturing my running strategy in my head. I had two races tonight, the 400 meter dash and the 4x400 relay. Our relay team had put in hours of work. Our handoffs were

If I were to conduct research on a Sociological Topic that is applicable to my own life, I would choose to research how the experience of having loved ones pass away affects people overtime. For instance, an certain individual I know very well has only experienced the death of one individual they were close with in their entire lifetime. On the other hand, I have been affected by the passing of loved ones since I can remember. Case in point, just over the past couple of years I have lost upwards

animal to the next preschooler. I believe that the objective was achieved though this activity, as except one child was eventually able to pass along the animals properly. For example, in blue group six preschooler automatically comprehended the objective of the game and passed the animals along smoothly, while two (G.M and G.P) children need to be reminded that this is a sharing activity and that we need to continuously pass along the animals. In yellow group every
