As Malcolm X once said, “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.” This quote inspires a lot of people like me to try harder and to never stop at one point and give up. In the book The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates, is about two people with the same name and born with the same path, going through challenging life obstacles. They both grew up fatherless and had a difficult childhood.
“Live Like You Were Dying.” by; Tim Mcgraw Throughout the song “Live Like You Were Dying” it 's expressing how everyone should appreciate their life and actually get out and do things. The artists is talking about a young man who’s just found out he was dying, he spent the next few days talking about the :sweet time” and how he was gonna spend his last days. This man did not let the news of dying get to him though, once he let everything set in he really started living, he did things he probably never would have done if he hadn’t found out he didn’t have much time left in his life.
In the song, it talks about how when you’re young, you have so much time ahead of you that you take it all for granted and don’t really live when you’re meant to live. Once you get older however you see how much time you have wasted by doing nothing and then you regret passing up those opportunities. Listening to classic rock (or as my friends refer to it as “dad music”) for my entire life, I have heard many songs about people wasting their younger years and wanting to go back but they can’t. I have always had a motto of “living in the moment” which I think is very common among my generation, but I believe that it really is the smartest way to live. The worst thing you can do is waste your youth with nothing to show for it.

As a proud member of the Mercedes Tiger Band color guard and drill team, a lifetime goal for me would be to join a marching band and/or college dance team. Coming into high school I never thought my passion would be to be performing in front of hundreds of people every Friday Night for four years. It has become my passion and it brings me much joy to perform and have the time of my life on that football field. I have had an amazing four years participating in many extracurricular activities but I have found that my biggest passion is colorguard.
Robert Frost, a great American poet once said, “In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: it goes on.” A life of a person will end, and no matter how hard people try, nothing with life can control time. Therefore, no people can master life. However unattainable the aspect of governing time is, several authors have attempted to give the world lessons that help each person to use the time life does give. In the poem “Acquainted with the Night”, Robert Frost describes being alone in life, while Tim McGraw expresses the celebration of living life to the fullest in his song “Live Like You Were Dying”.
While working on the progress of teaching myself to take risks, I learned to be more selfish, for I have never taken care of my mentality or my appearance instead I worry for other people. With these five paragraphs for you, I 've never told these secrets to anyone on this Earth not even to my parents. I hope you can understand this unhappy childhood I have that shaped me to become a much more independent person I am right now. I hope you can recommend me to my dream school, where I can express myself and gather enough knowledge to help the rest of the world out of poverty level and prevent any children from experience

After years of my friends recruiting me, I decided to join cheer for the first time. My Friday nights were now spent on the sidelines cheering on the football team, instead of yelling from the bleachers. Cheer brought me closer to my friends. We made memories at practices, games, and on the bus rides.
“As I stopped taking [music] as seriously, I started writing songs again…I was just doing it for joy, really, for the joy of writing. Just the necessity. You feel like you need to after awhile.” As a band, Evermore released their last album Follow The Sun three years ago, and Hume has used to the time since to formulate his new solo project Peter Rabbit.
and I went with my brother and best friend Bri. That was still one the best days of my life since I saw so many of my current favorite bands all in one day. I will definitely remember that day for the rest of my life. Ever since that experience in 9th grade my interest in music has
This is still the first chapter in our life together, there are many more to go. Hell, there 's even a few more books to make in our process of loving one another until death do us apart. Even then, I 'll be buried right

With nothing to lose I attended my first meeting, from there I had done something I had never done before, I helped create the show, constructionally and technically, I had watched as pieces I created with my hands turned into a whole new world. It may seem strange, but hearing a cue you’ve been working on perfecting for hours ring out in perfect time is simply euphoric. That feeling of accomplishment and joy I had been longing to feel had returned and from there I was hooked. I worked in production from the winter of my freshman year until the spring of my sophomore
