Riding the Bus with My Sister

District in 4th grade. I didn’t talk to any one for a while then I started to make friends. My first friends where leEric Brandenburg and Jordan Newby, they were my first friends and after that I started to make a lot of friends. I was the first 6th grade class to graduate from Logan when it first became an elementary. Before I came to seaman school district, I went to 501 for half of elementary from pre-k to 3rd. My mom then got a job over here and we moved over here before 4th grade. So I had a whole

1. Before implementing the technology blackout, I found that I use a lot of my time using some sort of technology. For instance, in a 48-hour time period after keeping a journal of the time that I spent watching television, watching films, listening to music, surfing the internet and using a cell phone I was surprised to find that I spend a total of 5 hours surfing the web in a 48-hour time period. I also found that watching television and films has become something of the past with only watching

Upon his head is a woven reed, safari-like, hat, and he grips tightly to a long bamboo cane. Behind us, a rising hill sits, covered with vegetation so lush, the humidity seems to radiate off the picture. I run my fingertips over the rough edges of the frame and smile at the picture of my friend Hannah and I. It had been photographed in Thailand when our youth conference group had taken a trip down to an Asian elephant sanctuary camp. And this leads me to a realization. The photographer of the photo

Why should you be chosen for this program? I think I should be chosen for this program because this could be a great opportunity to challenge my comfort level in what I imagine is a fast-paced and overwhelming environment. Also, I am very interested in exploring the medical profession and enjoy working with and helping others. Another reason is that I really want to see if I am capable or have what it takes to work in this challenging, yet rewarding field. I realize I will possibly shadow doctors

game with my friends. The day was normal, and I remember glancing at the clock around one because I was ready for math to be over. It was not long before we were on the bus riding home. I remember getting off the bus to see a police car and three other cars parked in front of my house. My sister and I walked around to the back and let ourselves inside. The door to the rest of our house was shut and the three of us were told to stay in the living room. I remember walking on the back of my couch practicing

On September 30, 2007, my father, Rodney Woodington, Senior Master Sergeant of the United States Air Force, presented my siblings and me with the Coin of the Military B.R.A.T. The coin is awarded to the children who spend their lives serving along their parents. The words inscribed on its crest: boldness, responsibility, adaptability, and tolerance, each of these traits that I have acquired on my journey from base to base, continue to be my guiding lights. Boldness: “…to bravely go where others

As my mother entered the house after being gone all day, I could see it in her face, she had bad news. She wipes a tear and says, “We won’t be able to stay here any longer.” At first I understood this as her telling us we would have to move once again, another house, same city, no big deal. I had grown to be used to this kind of news. I was correct in the sense that we were moving, but this move would not be like the previous moves we had made. My mother then went on to explain that we would have

While reading chapter twenty one section one I was introduced to the topic of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. In this topic it introduced a man named Martin Luther King, Jr. However the chapter gave very little information about Martin Luther King, Jr. In this research paper I will be explaining the background of Martin Luther King Jr, the rise of MLK Jr, some of the achievements he made, and how he died. Martin Luther King, Jr. was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on January 15, 1929 (History.com Staff)

Then we piled into my mom's friend’s car and went to her house. She tried to make it feel normal she had us do our homework, we watched movies, and she made us dinner. But, no matter what she did there was always a nervous, sad feeling that filled the air. After a few hours of being at my mom's friend’s house, she got a call from my dad saying that he had my mom and they were coming to pick us up. When I got into the car I looked at my mom she looked sad, embarrassed, and tired

that features the more modern safety features, it would definitely bring a great peace of mind to me knowing that both my passengers and I have all the resources possible to be safe in case of an unfortunate event. I know I can just get any old used car for a grand but I don’t believe saving a couple thousand is worth more than the value of the lives of those that will be riding with me. Not to mention older cars always have more mechanical problems than newer ones and in the long run you may spend
