Student writing: The most influential people in our lives
Jan 31, 2018
I believe that family and friends are the most influential people in our lives. Our experiences we have with the people around us mold us into the people that we are; that makes them very important. And without them, life would get very boring.
My friends and family have always been really...
Student writing: The power of kindness
Jan 31, 2018
Growing up, kids are always told not to talk to people unless they know who they are.
Sometimes, however, the people you don’t know are the ones who can lift you up the most.
I believe everyone has the power to be kind, and more people should take advantage of it.
There are so many little ways...
Student writing: Work ethic
Jan 31, 2018
I believe that today’s generation for the most part does not know how to work. Some kids these days have everything handed to them by parents. A good majority of kids do not have their first job until they’re out of high school or even out of college in some cases.
I believe having a job at a...
Student writing: Never forget to say 'I love you'
Jan 31, 2018
I believe in always saying “I love you.” When I was child, from the time I can remember, conversations and phone calls never were ended without “I love you.”
When my family met up for holidays, all goodbyes to end the day were the grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and children always being reminded...
Student writing: Discovering the art of art
Jan 31, 2018
I believe that art isn’t just drawings and sculptures; it is a life skill that can be discovered and improved upon. It’s anything you want it to be, no matter what others think.
I didn’t always know what art was, or how it worked, but ever since I took art classes in school, I’ve been given a...
Student writing: A game of lessons
Jan 31, 2018
Golf is a game of lessons. It’s a mental game and a game of strategy. I believe that golf helps take me take life one step at a time.
There are times that I have really struggled with letting one bad shot or hole affect the rest of the round. My lack of mental focus jeopardized the majority of...
Student writing: Always have respect
Jan 31, 2018
Working at a care center has taught me respect and how my actions can affect other people.
When I get to work it’s easy for me to tell when a resident hasn’t been taken care of correctly. Residents will have a bad attitude; they become cranky and aggravated and refuse their cares when it’s time to...
Student writing: Batter up
Jan 31, 2018
I believe that life is like a game of softball; there is always going to be a pitch coming in and the only thing to do is to frame it.
Framing a pitch is an action done by the catcher when they catch a ball and then try to quickly move it into the strike zone so that the umpire sees and calls it a...
