When i grow up
I believe

I remember when I was just a little girl, about the age of twelve, when I went to the Bedford Stadium and hundreds of people were scattered in the stands and at half time the announcer started to announce a bunch of girls names. I looked down to see a bunch of girls in long dresses march down the field with what seemed to be prince charming on their arms. After a while they all were down the field and the stadium would get quiet, and then the announcer would scream out a name and everyone would start cheering and the girl would start to cry, get flowers, and her picture taken. I looked at my mom and asked what was going on, she said she was just crowned homecoming queen. I remember saying back “I want to be homecoming queen!”

As the years went by I always noticed the one game where the homecoming queen would be crowned but the idea slipped in the back of my mind, I couldn’t do that. I was just one little girl with a big dream. Once I got into middle school I started to be more social with a lot of different people, Being a people person helped me a lot, making people smile and happy put a smile on my face and I knew if homecoming queen was in my future I would have to start being nice to everyone. Seeing people start to notice me made me glad that I set this goal for myself because I noticed I was changing peoples attitudes with my happiness.

I am now a sophomore in high school and my life has changed tremendously, I got dumped by a guy I was dating for three years, people I thought would never leave my side did, and I met my best friend of three years. I was an average teenage girl trying to find my place in high school. I wasn’t the strongest until one night I got a text from a girl saying “I need help” This was a girl who I went to elementary school with but never really knew or talked to so I was surprised and didn’t know what to say. I replied with “is everything okay?” The girl then went into this story about how her ex-boyfriend

    During my teenager years I was going through life like as some teenager would go through. Peer pressure was among myself where I was hitting rock bottom. Things wasn’t really looking great at the time. I was hanging with the wrong crowd that almost cost me to drop out during my junior year in high school. I still can remember when me and my mother and brother was in the principle office where we was going to my a choice that would effects our lives forever. She had looked at both of us and ask if we just wanted to just drop out and I can see in her eyes that she was really disappointed with us. While I was sitting there thinking and remembering how much struggle my parents had…

    It was the middle of the summer and I was playing baseball in Jackson, Mississippi. I was playing for the Goodlettsville All-Stars. We were playing in the little league 10u world series. To get to the championship we had to win 8 games and it was single elimination. We had won 7 out of 8 games and we were playing our 8th game and it was the bottom of the third and I was playing left field. In the second inning I was felling drowsy so my dad gave me a Snickers and a Red Bull. I was for sure not drowsy anymore. I could feel the sugar rushing through my veins and I was on the balls of my feet waiting for the pitch to be thrown. When my pitcher threw the ball I had my hand in my glove ready for the ball if it was hit to me. WHAM! The ball was hit so far up in the air it looked like it hit the sun. When I realized that the ball was coming to me I was way too far back so I had to run as fast as I could and dive for the ball. I jumped as far as I could and stretched as far as I could. I barely caught it by snow coning the ball. Everybody was so proud of me that the screamed as loud as they could. We went on to win the game 4-1. The next day I woke up, jumped out of the bed, and put my uniform on. I was so excited, I was in the championship! I…

    “LET’S GO BOYS!!!! LET’S WIN THIS!!! BEAT THESE RAVENS!!!!!!” The crowd was screaming and chanting wildly as we began to run out of the locker rooms and onto the large football field. I lead them, raising my arms up and down to signal the crowd to get louder with their cheers. As I did this, I was also sprinting to the middle of the field through the large slit that was cut for my eyes. I turned back to the crowd in the stands, and the players ran around me, with smiles of their faces, to get to their positions and the bench. I started to jump and raise my arms, “ FROGGY!!! FROGGY!!! FROGGY!!!” They all chanted my name in union, some of them even had signs and horns! A large smile crept onto my face behind my large mascot mask, and I couldn’t…

    Ever since I was a little girl I dreamt about being on the Indianettes dance team. Dancing has been a part of my life from the age of four up until now. When I was younger I was not the best dancer but I loved it, and my mom already paid for my classes so i was kind of stuck doing it anyways. My eighth grade year I was preparing to tryout for the Indianettes, I was stretching, working on my technique, and working on my jumps and turns. It turns out that the old coach Sheri Bradley quit and the Indianettes had a new fairly inexperienced coach named MariAnn Barfus. I wasn't very confident about making the team. Long story short, I ended up making it along with Jaidyn Harris, Hannah Hyde, Daphnie Colpron, Carson Davis, Becca Osterhout, Mechelle…

    It was a fun game to watch, as we all thought about us playing on that court the next day. It was finally game day, and we had to play Stewartville, 2nd place from Minnesota. They were athletic, but we ended up winning the close match. Our next rival was the Bismark Thunder, 1st in North Dakota and last year's national champions. We were nervous since the were taller, stronger, faster, and just better than us. We lost to them, but we were fired up to play for 3rd place. The team headed over to the Target Center for the 3rd place game. Playing there was so neat, being under the lights, having them announce your name, and just being with the tam. We played Grafton, who placed 2nd at state in North Dakota. They looked like us, athletically, so we weren’t too worried. We came out with a bang, ready to play. Darby and Ellie pushed it up the court on fast breaks, giving us the early lead. Rilee and I played great defense on the post, as well as Marlee on the wing. Jenny came in and scored a couple before halftime. We were tied 17-17 at the half, and we knew we would have to work even harder. Halftime was over, and we played our hearts out the rest of the game. Mavis and Paige played great offensively, as well as Taylor on defense. We beat Grafton, 36-34, with Darby’s 1:00 left, 2-point shot. We were so happy that we had pulled off that win! We spent the next hour at the…

    Ever since I was little, softball has been a huge part of my life and I am happy that softball has continued to play a role in my high school experience. The night we won the 2014 division 1 softball state championship is a night I will always remember and cherish. We ended a long season, where we worked hard every day, by going undefeated and winning the state championship game against Smithfield 8-2. This year was special to me not only because it was my first year as a varsity starter and we won the state championship, but because of how close the team was. As a team we made many memories during our undefeated season and during our trip to Disney. My 2014 high school softball season is a season I will never forget. Although 2014 stands out the most, I will always remember my softball career at North Kingstown High School. I might not be able to remember every base hit or every play, but I will always remember my teammates and how much fun we had.…

    I had not seen my friends since the last school year, but none of my so called “friends” would even acknowledge me. Here I was again, scared out of my wits, at a new school, and looking for friends. I met new people and they took me in like a lost puppy looking for a home, one of them ended up living very near to me. Her name was Simi, she was very nice to me; I thought that Simi would actually be the friend for me. It turns out, I was wrong, Simi used me to get what she wanted and I was gullible enough to cave in to her demands. Later on in the year, I finally (after years of searching) found the perfect group of friends. They were amazing and they felt just like my friends back in Ardmore. From that group of friends, I found my best friend Elizabeth Helms, who is still my best friend…

    It was game day the field was rough and dry the goals were painted yellow, the burning hot sun was shining off our helmets. The team practiced so hard for this game it was the game that everyone wanted to see. It was only five bucks to get in. the coaches called all the players out on the intercom for the pre game meal, we were having some watermelon and some chicken and a potato it was very good. The chicken was the best. we started warming up when coach had called us down to the field. We had went over some offense and defense. When defense had went out on the field, we had worked on some pass blocks and some blitz plays. In my opinion pass block was my favorite. Everyone's pads was tied tight, cleats were wrapped with white tape, chin straps…

    All throughout school I strived to be a great student, always trying my best and never giving up. I didn’t really have any life changing moments that shaped me into who I am today that is, until freshman year.

    I decided I needed to make a change. My classes were filled with students who I never talked to, because we were stuck in certain groups in middle school. I branched out and began talking to new people and met a girl who seemed to have similar interests as me. Every class we would talk and we decided to walk to our lockers together in the morning. This would be a change, because I always walked with my other friend to our lockers. The next morning, I met up with my new friend, Jen. Jen and I walked to our lockers together and I heard hushed talking behind us. The voice came from my old friend who was telling someone about me. She now turned the tables and gossiped about me and how I was mean for ignoring her. This shocked me and I knew then and there that I had to drop her as a…

    Hi my name is saeed abuhadi, I am student in prince mohammed bin fahad university majoring finance.

For the English I learned english starting in sixth grade because I went to a weekend English Institute for maybe 7th-9th. There is a book which helped me a lot is called " English nertive" it teach modern day English though but I found it helpful to understand how to speak to normal people.
