School Captain Speech
I am a coin of one rupee born in the year 1970.
But very sad to say ,
I can't celebrate my birthday.
Because I don't have any birth certificate so, nobody knows the exact date.
The year is only known to me as it's engraved on my body.

After I was born I was kept in a locker along with my other brothers and sisters
Then, one day a shopkeeper involved me in a transaction
As a balance amount, to a mother I was given.

The mother's boy wasn't fascinated by my cute body
Without hesitation, he parted me for the purchase of a Cadbury.
Don't be amazed .
In the year 1985 my value was similar to present day Rs. 25

Now let me tell you an interesting story of how I performed the job of ten rupees.
One day two friends were going to sell 20 berries.
Only one of them had money which was ofcourse I.
During the journey my possessor was mad with hunger.
He ate two berries by paying his friend one rupee.
The other friend also became hungry he repaid his friend one rupee for eating two berries.
Like this two friends who were very hungry ate all berries and I performed the job of ten rupees.

Nowadays hardly a toffee's worth is my valuation and due to fast depreciation
I am becoming of no use.
To accept me even beggars often refuse!
Soon approaching time of my elimanation
I shall be driven out of circulation and become a history for future generation when hundred rupees note will be the lowest denomination.

Hi! You know who I am
Everything in town I can buy
Parents slog to earn me
While children love to waste me.

Possessing me lights up every face
I am mighty; not soft as lace
You carry me with you everywhere
Like a child carries his Teddy bear.

Some call me the brother of poverty
Others say I lead to so much greed
Few say I'm the cause of false deeds
I'm sometimes called the mother of necessities.

Everybody wants me more and more
Oh so much me they adore
I'm just longing to hear someone say,
"Hey, just go away"!

    Good evening everyone, I hope everyone is enjoying their night. My name is Keyona and I was the one of the 4 captains chosen for the 2011 Montclair High School Cheerleading Squad. During my 3 years on the squad, I’ve had so many memories, good and bad, that helped me grow as a person. Cheerleading throughout my high school career took part in shaping me as the person I am today. I’d like to congratulate this year’s squad for making it through the season successfully as a new team. There were a lot of ups and downs, but I think we handled each situation well. As the season progressed, I’ve formed bonds with many of the girls on the team that will last me way beyond my high school experience. Some of the girls I think more of sisters than team mates. You guys made my experience more than enjoyable by joking, laughing, and having fun every time I stepped through gym doors. Even if my day was horrible, SOMEONE made me laugh or smile and my frown was quickly turned upside down. I’d like to thank Ms. Rob and Ms. HB for giving me the opportunity to be captain this year. They taught me to have a tough skin and to keep my head up in any situation I face in life. If I had the choice to pick different coaches for the squad, I wouldn’t because nobody could take their place in my eyes. Most importantly, I’d like to thank my mother Lisa White for motivating me and being there whenever I needed her. Even though she punished me every Saturday after each home game with washing loads of dishes from when she made cookies the night before, it was worth it. Overall, the season was unforgettable and I wouldn’t give my spot up as captain for the world. Thank you guys and enjoy the rest of your time here at the…

    I don't know why people gave me their money. Pity, perhaps. Maybe it was impossible to say no to a six-foot-two-inch thirteen-year-old who trips over his own bike in front of your house, falls up your bottom step, blushes red with embarrassment when you open the door, and tells you he wants your money for a talent contest so he can become a Great Artist (Hodgins 402).…

    When I read the story A Rupee Earned by I.F Bulatkin I related to it most. The story is about a young lazy boy that sits on his ass all day doesn’t do anything to support the family. When his father got a notice that he will only alive for so many days he told his son that if he could earn one rupee all of his dad’s fortune will be his. I haven’t been in a situation like the lazy boy but my family always told me that if you work hard now in school when you get older all that hard work will payoff. This story has a great example about how hard earned money and money that is given to you have different “values” to you for example the father said that “someone else’s money you do not care about that is cheap”.…

    At yesterday’s town council meeting (3/6/17), the serious problems of Cottone Field took center stage. Concerned residents and students lined up to inform the council about the worn-out condition of the field which has recently caused injuries to several students. The injuries were due to the uplift of the base layer of silica sand which purpose is to act as a cushion. Without this base layer of sand, the field becomes incredible dense, providing little to no dampening of impacts. The result of this is that students are getting sprained ankles in situations where they would normally be uninjured. One concerned resident reported “their was no difference in feel between the concrete and the field once I stepped on to it”. Another reported…

    The afternoon was cold and windy as I walked through the shopping centre of my little suburb. A busker, perhaps in his late fifties, wearing clothes that had gone well beyond their 'use by' date, played his guitar rather badly. "Don't encourage him!" called a passer by as I dropped a coin into the box. I crossed the road and entered a shop where I made regular purchases. I noticed the assistant would occasionally look out of the window at the busker. She turned to me and asked, "Would you mind the shop for a minute?" Surprised, I agreed, whereupon she took a pie from the warmer, ran across the road, and gave it to the busker. I have since learned that this was not an isolated example of her generosity.…
