Winters tale

My passion is playing sports. I have always been athletic as I grew up playing all different types of sports. I did gymnastics, basketball, and I continue to play on multiple soccer teams. However ,I have become a lot more passionate about track and field. Track and field is more of a laid back sport compared to others as it goes on in an order of events. The events I participate in are various sprinting events and the pole vault. Pole vault is my favorite of the two events because there are not

A shatter zone used to be defined as “a belt of randomly fissured or cracked rock that may be filled with mineral deposits”(Moon,pg 1). After World War two the meaning changed dramatically.

Just think of tanning in the sand on a beach and sipping a sweet drink. To some, that sounds like the life. The summer season is by far better than the winter. Summer has so many more perks and positive traits than Winter. Some find themselves even getting depressed in the Winter. Although, I do thank mother nature for giving Summer.

do I. The changing of the seasons not only have an effect on the way I dress, but the way I act. Fall marks the start of a new school year and with a new year brings purposefulness and a strength of character. I find myself down memory lane in the winter months, remembering the warmth close family and friends can bring. Spring allows me the chance to regroup, reexamine, and reenergize. The long awaited summer finally arrives, bringing a carefreeness that fails to exist during the year. A “new me”

How to Choose the Perfect Winter Coat I live in a place where the winter is long and very, very cold. Over the years, I learned how to choose and invest in the perfect winter coat (coats, in my case, as I have two!) And I decided to share some tips with you. 1.

Putting it into words makes these past events the future. They become immortalized in writing, they become forever. But maybe putting words to my thoughts and feelings will alleviate some of that terror. Maybe I’ll be setting myself free. It was winter of last year in Connecticut.
