First time moving I loved to play in the backyard of our little suburban house on 842‚ Tiablanca rd. In the front yard‚ the grass was cut neat and cleome flowers hid most the mold at the base of the house. On the porch‚ there was an old rocking chair with the paint mostly peeled off and that’s where my Mom would sit in the mornings because it had a great vantage point of the street so she could watch as my brothers waited for the bus. There were Wooden panels that lined the windows in front and they

Today is the day I go on my first trail drive. My job is to work the night shifts. I guess you could say I’m a "nighthawk". My crew and I are headed to Central Kansas with about seventy head of cattle. We are traveling along the Chisolm Trail. My buddy ‚Bengi‚ said‚ "This is not gonna be a short‚easy drive."

boosted my confidence. I did something never anticipated to do. It was the day that I had been contemplating for weeks.

My mom was cooking steak and potatoes for dinner and my dad was sleeping in his bed. My sisters were playing on their phone and tablet.

There was a Palomino in yellow‚ a Bay in green and a Bay in blue‚ a Paint in orange‚ and a Black in grey. I could see the jockeys petting

When I first arrived to Richmond Early College High School‚ I anticipated an academic career characterized by hard work‚ nightly homework assignments‚ and incredible doses of stress that a middle school classroom could not synthesize.

I still remember when I first came to America. I was at Charlotte Douglas International airport‚ looking around the totally strange place which was full of strangers. All I could hear was strangers talking in a language that I didn’t understand a single word. At that moment‚ I realized that I was in America‚ the America. I remember how people describe America as the greatest country in the world and such. My heart started to beat faster and faster‚ it felt like my heart was going to explode. Suddenly

W1T Literacy Narrative Draft 1 English is not my first language. In fact‚ I didn’t learn it well enough to have a conversation until I was about 10 years old. I remember the embarrassment of being new to a country I called home after living in Mexico for years. Things changed quickly the first day of 8th grade. I remember being energetically greeted by a slender athletic man in his fifties in a muggy summer morning. The hum of the air conditioning as welcome sound as we found our seats in this room

My First Time Driving I have never been more agitated in my life. I have got to be the most horrendous driver ever. Before this‚ I had never driven a car in my life. Nobody ever told me what to do‚ and I never found it interesting to learn how. So I drove for the first time unprepared‚ inexperienced‚ and uninterested. It was summer 2016 in sunny Gulfport‚ Mississippi when I drove for the first time. We lived right on the water‚ so the roads were sharp and depended on the water. My dad has
