The fourth grade celebration was one of the biggest parties of the elementary years, at least that 's what everyone said. But what they didn’t say, was that it could cause a boy to go over the edge. To cause him to end up in a coma. They didn’t mention that I would end up making a life or death choice. Maybe they just didn’t know what I was in for, maybe nobody did. I haven’t even stepped foot into fun slides since. It was a traumatic experience, and the worst part is, I can’t get away from the people who caused it. I was dating Lee Rapp at the time of the incident. The fourth grade celebration wasn’t going to be our first date, since we had already gone on a field trip, and to my birthday party. I should have known something would end up happening, just with how he was acting. When I arrived at fun slides, he was already there. I was turned and talking to my mum and he snuck up on me and squeezed my sides, then lifted me up into the air, a …show more content…
Basically, he wanted to kiss me. Now. But I was not really ready to have my first kiss in front of a crowd of 4th graders. Plus, my mother had just taken extra measures so that I couldn 't even kiss him if I did want to. So here I am, standing in this chaotic mess of kids in my grade, my boyfriend and my best friends out of sight, and Jenna Luikart grabs onto my arm, dragging me to an unknown destination. She leads me off somewhere away from the crowd, and begins to beg me to kiss Lee. She tells me that she didn’t have a chance to kiss him when they dated, so I must kiss him for her. I told her about my dilemma , that I didn’t want to use my first kiss like this, and that I had stuff on my lips so I would get in trouble if I did kiss him. Then, most unexpectedly, she started dragging me across funslides. By my ankles, no

Exciting time to be a baseball fan. With all of the drama and distractions in the sports world lately, it is refreshing to turn on TV and watch a sport that is devoid (for the most part) of drama.

Giancarlo Stanton: With just three games remaining, Stanton needs just one HR to join the elusive 60-HR-club. How elusive is this club?

Homeroom Reflection Junior year I have grown as a student this semester by watching the mala movie. This has helped me grow as a student because it showed me how just one voice can change so much in a community. From this experience I learned how Mala was an ordinary girl but who ones spoke up for what she believed was right for her community and the people all around her. After she started to change her community on a positive way for example, have more schools so students can have an education and making sure girls were able to attend school more often. Therefore, when she spoke up for what she thought was right and changed people 's life there was some who didn 't appreciate what she was doing so decided to shot her and ended up shooting her on her forehead.

This year, I was invited to my friend’s birthday at Disneyland. I was hesitant about going, since I’ve only ever been on rides like Mad Tea Party, It’s a Small World, and Haunted Mansion. I knew all of my friends loved rides like Matterhorn, and Splash Mountain. As scared and hesitant as I was, I knew that my friends would never force me on a ride I wouldn’t want to go on. So I went, the first ride of course, was the Matterhorn.
I am writing my research paper on whether the idea of transitional programs are decreasing Recidivism rates in Pennsylvania. I found a specific one called “Halfway Houses.” The term “halfway house” refers to a small, closely supervised residential program where people making the transition from prison to the outside world get drug treatment, job placement and other services (New York Times). There are certain rules that they must follow, however, this will make the participants more accountable and responsible for their own actions. This certain type of transitional program assist the participants in focusing on their self and maintaining the transition from prison life to life back in every day society.

‘The Seventh Day: Revisiting Shabbat’ display at the Jewish Museum of Florida International University in Miami Beach through Oct.25, and this traveling exhibit is from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion Museum in New York. Through the work of leading international artists, this exhibit presents contemporary and often provocative depictions of Shabbat. The practice of Shabbat evolved, changed and expanded over millennia to meet the needs of people, respond to the growth of rabbinic law and adapt to the life of travails in the Diaspora. Because of the technology and culture in this era, there is no more boundaries to separate work, play and relaxation, and this exhibit invites people to think of their own definition of Shabbat
From the very beginning of time, the Sabbath has been a sacred day. In Genesis “God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work he had done in creation” (Genesis 2:3). The Lord made this clear again when He rescued our ancestors from Egypt and gave Moses the Law saying, “the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God. You shall not do any work, either you, your son or your daughter, your [slaves], your work animal, or the resident alien within your gates” (Exodus 20:10). And again, Ezra the scribe reread the Law to the people and said that as a result of the breaking of the sabbath, “our God has brought all this evil upon us and upon this city” (Nehemiah 13:18).
