I didn’t know that this day would be the worst day in my Altai life. It was the day we headed off to hike and get a ski/chair lift. I woke up at quarter past eight, like always. I changed my clothes and went to brush my teeth and say hi to my friends/classmates. The scent of the morning breeze was amazing. It was chilly, but fresh. After I went brushing my teeth, I went back to the cabin to put the stuff back and wake up my roommates. I got back out, to play with whoever is outside.
I saw a girl playing softball with some other people (only throwing for us and the girl was a catcher), so I joined in too. I was playing for about 10 minutes, and then got distracted. That moment was the beginning of the worst moment in Altai.
The mad crapper (I know who he is) passed the ball to mek to let me throw. Into my face. It crashed onto my glasses, eventually hitting my right eye. I was kind of distracted by other people playing frisbee and he didn’t call my name before he passed to me on my face. I should’ve kept track of the ball. The mad crapper said “Are you okay?”. I lied. It happened so quickly, so I didn’t know what

I went in my room, feeling devastating, and rested a little. It was time for dinner, but I really didn’t feel like eating. I just went to sleep, but it was hard to. I woke up. My roommates were there and I said hi and went to the banya assuming it will make me feel better. I guess it didn’t help, because it was so freezing outside my jaws were trembling light-speed after I went there. I was probably worse. I guess I caught a cold. I brushed my teeth and treated myself a medicine. I slept. I woke up. I was feeling great.
Theme: I will keep track of the softball because if I don’t, I will get injured somewhere when a person passes to me and get a headache during all day. I am not going to the banya when I don’t feel good because it probably could make me worse. I am not trusting the mad crapper in
The umpire calls, “Strike one!” I thought it wasn’t a strike, but I went with it because I didn’t want to get into a fight. I step out of the box, fix my batting gloves and take another swing the get back in. The next pitch comes and you could hear a “DING”. I swung and hit it down the right field line.
I had just arrived at our small lake cabin, ready to go to bed. When I woke up the next day, I did my normal routine, eat, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get dressed. With nothing to do at sunrise, I head outside, hoping to go on an adventure. But with no luck on a gloomy day I just ended up playing catch with my cousin. About 5 minutes later, my dad walked out, watching us play catch in the misty morning.
Journal Day Entry Two While having a long great discussion with my girlfriend about a topic that I would have never come across my mind, it was about further education. It is true, there are many different ways to receive education for example, trade school, online, university, community college, junior college, or even military. Out of all that was mentioned earlier, the most popular forms of education is online, going to a university or a community college, or even joining the military. It is unusual to me to hear about junior and trade school.
I nicked the ball with the end of my bat and the ball dribbled out softly to the shortstop. Drat, I missed my pitch. But I was not deterred. I had to beat out the throw. I sprinted towards first base with everything I had.
There were 2 outs and bases were loaded. I threw the pitch. The batter swung and hit this one to the furthest part of the field it can go without going over the fence. While the batter was running the bases I was grasping
Then he throws a fastball right down the middle and i hammer it to left field. The runner from third scores and we win the game. My whole team comes out and jumps on me slapping my helmet. Everybody is cheering and i'm so happy this is the greatest day of my life.
I sprinted for the ball that was bouncing towards the middle of the field. I jumped with the ball to make a header. Crack! I was on the ground and I remember feeling a sharp pain on my forehead. I felt like someone threw a rock at my face.
The first pitch was a fastball inside. The pitch hit me in the leg. It felt broken. The pitcher came over and made sure I was okay. My mom called 911 and an ambulance took me to the hospital.
I take one foot out of the box and let out a breathe I didn’t know I was holding in. I once again looked to my coach Mike for direction and go to take a practice swing. Little did I know the catcher was getting up to pressure Maddy back to first base from her lead. As I was taking my swing I heard a thud, my bat had hit something solid.
Jason 5 The Worst Hard Time The Worst Hard Time The Worst Hard Time, written by New York TImes’s Timothy Egan in 2006. The book takes place during a time called “The Dirty Thirties” or “the Great American Dust Bowl” a time which spanned about 10 years with very severe dust storms and drought, which estimated to have caused over $30 billion dollars worth of damage by today’s standards. The dust storms, however, were not the result of mother nature but rather the result of the industrializing world and surplus of crops which flooded the market, soon after farmers were unable to make the profit from selling their crops and slowly lost money until they could not afford to keep their land fertile. Thus causing a barren wasteland where their crops were.
All of us had fun, but we were exhausted. We went back to the rental and played some video games. Soon after my mom shouted, “Come eat dinner!” Then me and my sisters raced down the stairs and went right to the dining room. We ate to our fill and then we went right to
Eliza’s Memoir I play softball. It was All-Stars, and we were in first place at the moment. We had won three games, to London, Circleville, and another team whose name I can’t remember. It was the second to the last game, and our team was watching from some nice shade in the outfield (By the way, it was in the 90’s while we were there.
I went home that day with a broken heart and a young boy being disappoint with no fish. Also, the road trip was probably the most annoying one, but one to
“Here is the tragedy: when you are the victim of depression, not only do you feel utterly helpless and abandoned by the world, you also know that very few people can understand, or even begin to believe, that life can be this painful. There is nothing I can think of that is quite as isolating as this” (Andreae). I began to struggle with depression when I was in my second year of middle school. People always assume a major life event is what caused it, but nothing had changed: my dad moved out of state when I was in the fourth grade, I was friends with the same people I had been friends with the previous year, and I had never been very close with my step-father. But none of this was new to me, so what had caused this change in my mentality?
One of my experiences with failure took place when I was in fourth grade. There were many problems accumulated and I was a child who needed people to see if I did my homework or study for the test, because I couldn’t concentrate and was distracted by anything in the room. My brother also had problems that year, he needed more attention because he didn’t get along with his math teacher and my Mom was always after him with the homework; otherwise he would have failed Math at the end of the year. In fourth grade, the teacher that was assigned to us was one of the strict teachers that were in that school
