It was around December, and my uncle invited me to go hunting with him, so I said "Sure". I never had a chance to hunt because my family aren’t big hunters. It was an offer I couldn’t say no to .Early in the morning I headed down to a part of Arkansas I never been through and seeing why they call it the natural state made me excited for what was going to happen later that day. Arriving at the spot of the woods where we were going to hunt, I put on my equipment and headed out with my two uncles and two cousins. Having a 22 on my hand, I started to realize I wasn’t going to kill anything. As the day carried on, my uncle started to get a bit frustrated because we were probably going to go back home empty handed. One of my uncles suggested that we should probably go back in to woods and give it another shot. That’s what we did, we all split up in groups of two, and I ended up with my uncle. My uncle and I started walking in to the woods and couple of minutes in to it we ended up right by a hill. My uncle suggested that he was going to go up the hill and scare something, so a deer will run downhill. He also told me that I should walk along the hill at a steady pace, and when I see a fence to wait for him there. As my uncle went up the hill, I lost sight of him and everything went silent. I walk along the hill like my uncle said and finally stopped by a big long fence and waited for him there. Minutes passed and I still had no sign of my uncle, and doubted myself if this was…
It was summer time and I was wearing my West Scranton football shorts and shirt, it was a normal day in the summer I was sitting in my living room with the air conditioner turned all the way down to 60 to get a cool breeze. I was watching Iron man but I really was not that into I kept drifting off and thinking what I should do with my day. My older brothers Shawn and Anthony came to the door around 2 in the afternoon and asked me if I wanted to go swimming.

So we left and went to a place called the “Rez” it was a place where high school and college kids go to jump off rocks and have a good time, it was a nice area surrounded by…
On a sunny Saturday morning when I was 5 years old, my sister and I were playing a game where we would push ourselves off of our bed like it was a slide. Our room was a pigsty; it looked as if a tornado had passed through. The mess from our closet met up with the end of our bed. I had just slid down the bed feet first into the mess when it happened.…

I was eleven. It was one summer morning around 8:30, when my mother, siblings, and I woke up early for a walk to the store around the corner to use some coupons that were to be used only that day. In line for about half an hour, my vision got muddy all of a sudden. Seconds later, my eyes vastly floated into a gaze of never-stopping kaleidoscopes. I woke up with my family in panic and with unfamiliar faces observing me. I looked up and saw a lady on the phone, on the line with paramedics as my mother and brother rushed to say “he’s awake now”. Strangers approached me fanning heavily with thick newspaper. Embarrassed, I wanted to hide so I shriveled up into a ball and leaned back onto a wall. Oh how I wished I was blown away by those gusts.…

One of my greatest fears is the fear of sharks. Silly right? When I was little, my grandmother would always take me and my other siblings down to the beach since her parents lived in florida. I would always take my goggles and snorkeler, swim out into the open ocean, and begin my search for sand dollars. One day came to where I had became lost in my search and found myself to be a little too far away from the shore. I popped my head out of the water and realized I couldn’t touch the bottom even though I had been able to see it. I dove back into the water only to find myself facing the side fin of a bull shark. I was instantly paralyzed with fear and thought I was looking death in the face. I swam as fast as I could to the sand bar because I knew it was closer to my location than the actual shore was. Once I was sitting on a whole bunch of sand and there was about an inch of water around me I was finally able to catch my breath. I crawled back to the shore where my family was and told them about my encounter. Being little they didn’t believe me, but not once did I go further than the sand bar after that. They told me to dry off because we were going to walk to a crab shack that happened to be on the beach we were on for lunch. We were only halfway between our set up and the crab shack when screams were coming from behind us. We…

When I was 14 years old the fights and arguments my parents had was so stressful to me that the only choice for me was to break out of my house and run away, but not forever. I only wanted to catch some air , because my head was about to explode with all the noise going on coming from my parents room. All I had was my cell phone in my pocket, so I decided to call a friend. The only person I could think of was Felix, so I picked up the phone and called him at his house number. After it rang twice, his mother answered and said “If you are calling him to leave the house, I will not pass the phone to him”, so I lied and replied “No I am not calling him to leave the house. I was actually calling him to see if there was any homework?” She then passed the phone to him, and I explained everything to him and shortly he did leave the house and came to look for me at the middle school where I was at. When he arrived he give me a hug and told me I should go back home because as soon as…
