Throughout the summers of my high school years, I had a large amount of free time on my hands. My friends and I would usually play video games and hang out indoors since it was scorching hot. We all would go to each other’s house and play console and card games. A particular moment that I recall was when we were playing FIFA 15 and it was a tournament among us. My friend and I made it to the finals where we tied and went into overtime. As we fiercely stared at the television screen, I felt the sweat

Arousal was the energy that fueled by desire, my motivation, and ultimately my performance as I started my climb on Auburn’s rock climbing wall at the Fitness and Wellness Center.  Aware that arousal levels can fluctuate in the form of energy patterns, my fearless desire with confidence drove me for the moment.  I felt that harnessing my mental skills could power me to an optimal energy zone (peak performance and moderate to high arousal) with good flow within an Individual Zone of Optimal Functioning

What I call Home My mother was wearing a solid, warm, yellow, Tommy Hignifer blouse, paired with a black floral printed skirt, and black Garbo sandals. I needed to also dress up because my mom said it was out of respect when going to church. We were not to wear jeans, t-shirts, gym shoes, or anything that was not considered professional business attire. Clothes was not the only strict rule we had, but also time and planning.

During the young boy’s childhood he would climb in these birches wishing to get to heaven, but nevertheless, the birches would get thinned out at the top and the young boy would decide not to go any further . Also, the limbs on the birches would grow a certain inch a year, making them long and flexible

Everest?" Says that they pay … "thousands of dollars … for a permit". ("Guy Moreau").This quote shows that they should be rescued because they pay a lot of money for permits to climb the mountain, that money should also go to the rescue cost. Even though climbers put themselves in danger they paid a lot of money for the permit to climb the mountain. Another

There are many differences in the masquerade ball scene, such as the outfits they wear. In the 68 version they are wearing old Shakespearean clothing. Clothing that matches the time era of the play. While on the other hand the 96 version is more of a costume party. All wearing different themed costumes.
