Sprained ankle

Twisted Day “Throw me the ball right when I make the last cut, Mohammad. But watch out for those trees over there!” I yelled as I was lining up for a pass. It was a cool summer evening in June, and my friends and I were outside at our neighborhood park practicing for the upcoming football season. The sun was setting and the sky was mixed with orange and pink and it was so beautiful that it could have brought a tear to my eye. “What’s good Jesse, you ready to get some work?” my friend Christian excitingly

This September sophomore students from the Macaulay Honors College participated in the school’s fourth annual Bioblitz, which took at the scenic Brooklyn Bridge Park. Whether in rain or shine, or night or day, Macaulay students had the unique opportunity to observe, study, and draw discoveries from the vast organism population of the park in ways regular attendees of the part are not able to.

Upton Sinclair’s classic novel, The Jungle, strongly illustrates the negative consequences of capitalism through the harsh conditions immigrants faced living in America in the early 1900’s. In the novel, the reader is introduced to Jurgis Rudkus and his family who emigrated from Lithuania to the States in hope for a better future.

Would you ever choose something that you love so much, but you know will impact the rest of your life? Would you be willing to compromise your current lifestyle or what could happen in your future? Those are choices that you are required to decide before entering any sport, but those questions are most prevalent when wanting to join gymnastics. In my life I have faced tons of pros and cons in result of this sport, but made this choice long ago. I chose to put time and energy into doing what I love
