Today, my family and I went to Kings Island and we made it through the exhausting car ride..We walked into the park and we were started looking for somewhere for a roller coaster to ride like the small ,medium, big, and huge I wanted to go on a medium kind roller coaster. We roamed around a little going around checking all of the places to eat, little games to play, and the huge rides they have. I said to my dad “ There's a lot of places to eat here.” he and said “I wonder why it’s always packed too.” I tried to figure out why but I just forgot about it and we went looking around some more until we find the perfect ride
Accomplishments take me one step closer to happiness and tranquility. For example, maintaining an “A” in a rigorous course, helping others that are struggling, cook for my family, etc. are minor achievements and events that have formed me into a better being. Sometimes, ignorance gets the best of me, and it does conquer my sweet, timid personality that I possess. Accordingly, my accolades never suggest nor imply I am better than anyone else. I never consider highly of myself because we are equally intelligent in our own separate ways. It is a way to build up my confidence level as I am an introvert myself.
A place I feel a sense of belonging is soccer practice. As I look up from my phone, I see the green grass swaying in the wind. The car drives over the rocks and I hear the gravel crunching together beneath the rubber tires. I grab my water which sloshes around in my small blue jug and get out of the car. I look up and see my teammates, all in a circle, chatting about what happened that day at school. As soon as I get to them, I join the chatter. After about 5 minutes, Katy and I lead the lines to warm up because we are the captains of the team. Each stretch helps me relax and helps me get into “the zone.” After our stretches we get water. The cold water streams down my throat. I let out a slight breath and I start running to the coaches. Practice
It was the last inning in our all-star game, and we were losing 10 to 8. Our team had 2 outs and we couldn’t get the third. Our pitcher was doing bad, throwing all balls, while all of us in the field were tired, ready to fall asleep at any moment. There goes another walk. They score again. Great! I was thinking. At this point in the game I thought for sure that I would die right there in center field. However, baseball is baseball and things can change rather rapidly.
After my tenth grade year, I was undecided if I wanted to go to college. I knew about the Move On When Ready program, but was not sure I wanted to be on a campus with most everyone being older than me, at first I wanted to take online classes. I also had to make the choice as to where I was going to attend. Proximity to home, and familiarity with the campus and professors is what determined this decision. I passed the ACT, and after considering my options, I chose to attend Darton State College because it offered me many new opportunities and experiences, and was conveniently close to home.
The first thing I would do is confront her about it. Though I hate confrontation, the worst thing I could do in this situation is avoid addressing our differences; I cannot just assume that she knows that I have an issue with her different habits. Being the practical person I am, I would have us settle on an agreement. If she were to break this agreement, I would visit my residential advisor for assistance. If it were to happen again, I would, again, reach out to my residential advisor and request a roommate
I just called the Pro Shop, and reserved the 8:50 tee time for Tuesday, October 13th. The Men 's Club has taken all tee times from 9:00 until 9:40 that day. Carol and Sandi e-mailed that they wanted to play closer to 9:00, so I hope that 's not too early for you.
The Tide detergent bottle gradually moved back and forth, as my father’s elbow creaked, refusing to cooperate. “It’s my own way of physical therapy, you see,” my father boasted. “If I keep it up, I think I’ll be able to move my elbow by the end of the month.”
Why are there no lines? Why are there no goals? Why were the benches not moved? Just some of the things that went wrong on 9/12/15. That is the day my soccer team won 8-0 at our first home soccer game. The tensions were high and we were stressed no lines or goals. We had to move the benches all while trying to get prepared for the game. Coach Troy was running late as usual coach Nick was late for the first time and we were trying to warm up without him and get a handle on what to do about the field.
I was raised with Christian values in mind, and attended a Methodist school. I was raised in the Christian faith yet I find myself, as with some of my friends who were raised in the same conditions, we seem to be growing farther away from our upbringing as we age. I find myself simply not understanding as time goes by, a complete polar opposite from the song ‘Farther Along’. One of my hopes in attending PBA is to try and find answers and a reason to try and reconnect myself. I believe PBA, from what I’ve read, has a very friendly understanding environment. One where you sit down and go into depths about faith, instead of blindly following it because it was your parent’s
It was a cold November morning in the valley of Cowan, when I fired my first shot. It was a smooth and clean feeling after I pulled the trigger. I than saw the deer hunker as the slug hit its side, and it began to run away from us. Dad, knowing I had made a good shot, still decided to jump out of the blind window to end the animals suffering. Unfortunately, when his foot caught, it was all over from then. Once, I was inside the blind and the next I was in the cold crisp air. I then saw Dad on the ground cursing himself for jumping through the window.
Over the last fifteen years, I have grown mentally and socially. I credit my growth to my ability to analyze and understand the world for what it is. Social imagination is the use of information to understand the world and ourselves for who we are. Possessing the quality of mind that can develop reason and the capacity to shift perspectives are the basis of social imagination (Mills 2000). As I mentioned in reflection one, I came to realize that my way of thinking is what helped me overcome living a poor lifestyle. Understanding social imagination means understanding yourself; being aware of factors that give to your personal history and having the ability to develop reason to understand the world better. The fresh fruit of social imagination
I was hiding under an obnoxious yellow slide for at least fifteen minutes, as a four-year-old fifteen minutes stretch out longer than they should be. Every minute was a small eternity and to me, I didn't think they were coming back. I was alone.
My in-groups are my friends, my families, and cousin. My in-groups influenced the way I see the world by loving what they love and starting to believe what are they believing. Also, we share the same thoughts. The most effects from my in-groups is that I can easily believe them once there is a new case. My out-group are people those not belong to my in-groups, so any one not in my in-groups is out-groups. In my perspective they influence me by the role they could play , so if I said my teacher is one of my in groups member , she/he learn me a new things making me understand better they influence my thoughts also , so the influence depending about the role they are playing in my life.
I have grown into not being afraid coming on stage. I remember when I was little, i always cried before i performed. Always. Honestly it helped alot. it took all the fear away. As growing up, i was asked to join groups, to sing in them. Throughout my 18 years, i've been part of 4-5 groups. what i never was a leader. I mean yes, i came up at church and led the church with the group, i guess you can consider that as leading, but being a leader of that group is a whole different stage and story.
