My mother’s father is from the Middle East while my father’s family is European. Vastly different origins within one family can create obstacles to achieve one decision. Watching my family work through their ideas and beliefs has helped prepare for one of my more difficult high school experiences. To date‚ the most significant experience in being a

Year of Writing Form fifth grade‚ everyone made sixth grade sound like a sign up for your death wish‚ but what everyone told me was wrong. My favorite part about sixth grade is the fact that we have so much freedom. At Davis Creek‚ we didn’t have a lockers‚ we weren’t allowed to chew gum‚ we couldn’t even keep our phone in our backpacks. So‚ when middle school came and I saw everyone chewing their gum and having their phone in their pockets‚ I was about to flip out! On the first day all I remember

It was a chilly Monday night‚ and I was sitting in the Ed Landreth Building for the first time since the summer before my junior year of high school‚ when I attended the TCU All State Choir Camp. I reveled in the sights and sounds of the music department; every sound felt familiar to my entire high school choir career. It became fifteen minutes until the recital began‚ and my friend Taylor and I quickly walked into the Pepsico Music Hall. “Just wait!” She told me with excitement. “You’re going

When I decided to try out for my high school’s baseball team‚ I had the mindset of Little League: you show up and you play. I arrived at tryouts wearing my school baseball hat. I hadn’t trained over the winter‚ but because sports are relatively non-competitive at my school‚ I felt confident I would make the team. On the last day of tryouts‚ my coach called my name. “I don’t have room for you on my team‚” he said.

In the summer going into freshman year‚ my grandpa said to me he expected a state ring. I told him that was impossible. A freshman doesn’t get a varsity spot‚ especially with as much talent the upperclassmen have. Little did I know that anything is possible when I put my mind to it. My first sport in high school was soccer and I wasn’t prepared for the amount of fitness I needed. I thought that I was in shape‚ but I was in for a rude awakening.

Maddie Zisk My first day in an English speaking school. I thought back‚ to everything‚ everything that had happened and where it all had started. Here‚ it had started here. Memories flooded back‚ memories of people‚ memories of places‚ memories of… of everything. With one last look around I took a deep breath and boarded the aeroplane‚ I was ready. I arrived the day before the start of the second semester. Though my things had arrived almost a week before‚ but I had been content living out of a suitcase
