My favorite place is my grandfather’s log cabin in Leakey‚ Texas. It is not fancy or anything special but it is my home away from home.

As the 8th grader looked into the classroom and told me what it was all about I put my hand on a piece of art hanging on the bulletin board. It was thin paper‚ yet there were so many layers of paint. You could feel the detail itself‚ there was so much put into it that you could feel it. I’ve never seen anything like it. “Ready

memorable was going to happen. Although a part of me kept saying that I wouldn’t and should not enjoy‚ I still drove the pessimistic side of me away. Without a doubt‚ the fieldtrip was a go. No backing up. As I arrived just in time at the meeting place‚ which by the way is a cemetery‚ everyone was already there. My fellow students were already there‚ with their stuffed bags and with headsets covering their ears. The teachers were all ready and were busy coordinating with whoever they should be talking

An Athlete’s Home Home is where the heart is. If this is true then‚ my heart belongs to a special place. Not just any place‚ but a place where the chalk line connects the grass to the dirt‚ where three bases signify my safety‚ and a green fence is my brick wall. When I pull around the corner my view fist goes to the baseball field not the softball field‚ but that’s what makes it so unique and special in its own way. It’s sort of like a home‚ with a fence for a wall and trees for the roof. Different
