Cheerleading is one of my most defining life experiences. The sport allowed me to explore not only my leadership qualities‚ but also my own mentorship abilities.

At first‚ I was excited that I was able to demonstrate my leadership qualities‚ but then pressure

ZIP LINING Screams‚ yells‚ laughter shouting filled my ears just making it even more nerve racking. When I was ten years old‚ I spent a week at Sandy cove Camp for Girls‚ a sleep away camp in Virginia. From canoeing in the brisk waters of a small river to horseback riding through deep forest trails‚ there was never a dull day at this place. I was an archer‚ a cowgirl‚ a swimmer‚ and an artist all in a matter of days. Throughout the week‚ I found satisfaction in thinking that I

Erica and Danny were able to get Bill out of the chamber and to the decontamination showers. Once she was satisfied he was clean of all radiation they placed him on the gurney and transported him to sick bay. After arriving in sick bay they placed him on an exam table‚ which quickly displayed his vitals‚ which weren’t good.

9th st adventures It all started at ninth street with some friends of mine John and I started recruiting some people to come play football with us. I honestly didn’t know I had a pretty decent arm. I originally was going to start practicing to play wide receiver instead of quarterback. At the time Odell Beckham Jr. ( wide receiver for the New York Giants ) was extremely explosive and dynamic on offense. Seeing him blow up on offense made me want to try out for wide receiver. But somehow John convinced

There it was‚ The Goliath. One of the world’s tallest roller coasters standing at over 200 feet tall‚ sitting right in front of this little 12-year-old boy waiting in line at Six Flags to ride his first roller coaster. That little boy was me and this was the moment I overcame my fear of riding a roller coaster. As I was waiting in line under the hot sun for my turn on the gigantic roller coaster I was contemplating in my head if I should turn back or not. I said to myself that I’m not going to give
