Advice I Often Receive From Parents
Number of Words: 351 / Number of Pages: 2
... It gets quite annoying when I second guess
myself about what I could have done. However, when I know I did the work
as well as I could and it isn't a good mark, I don't worry about it as much
as some people might.
In conclusion, the piece of advice that I receive most often from my
parents is basically a good one, and often it keeps me motivated in the
things I do. It also shows me that my parents will support most of my

along the line I will probably pass along the advice "as long as you did
your best" to my childre ...

Jobs Are Not For Me
Number of Words: 947 / Number of Pages: 4
... at for a short period of time, I remember being constantly pulled aside and being told that I wasn’t bagging the groceries properly. The strange part was that when my boss would tell me these things he would always take me to isle seven to yell and scream at me. Why couldn’t he take me into his office where it would be private? Instead he would make a big scene in front of all the old women shopping for those lovely canned foods and completely embarrass me. I never understood that. There was another reason why I knew my boss wasn’t the brightest candle on the cake. I always had to remind hi ...

Employee Theft At Staples
Number of Words: 634 / Number of Pages: 3
... off with some RAM, Doug robbed some hard drives, and Jason even pilfered a laptop. Most of the guys claimed that the lack of proper wages justified the theft. “After all,” Doug said one day, “All we’re doing is stealing from Staples what they owe us anyway.” I was scared. Was there a chance of losing my job if I didn’t reveal the secret to a member of management? And if I did tell, would getting involved put me at risk? When is being moral wrong?
I decided that telling a manager would be the best thing to do. I chose one I thought I could trust not to release my name, and I told her everything. He ...

Creative Writing: The Chase
Number of Words: 1659 / Number of Pages: 7
... from school home on a Saturday night. They were even less lucky when it came to the matter of getting a girl to ride with them. Mostly because when she would ask: what are we doing to do, they would reply: drive around for awhile. This was not something a high school girl wanted to hear from two guys. Even the slowest of females would come to the conclusion that the proposal wasn't entirely good hearted. In the case of Alan and Dan, they happened to be looking for company, company other than each other. Their intentions, truthfully, were always kind hearted. They couldn't expect every girl to know thi ...

I Declare My Independence From Homework
Number of Words: 428 / Number of Pages: 2
... forces students to do repetitive work, even if they already
understand the subject matter. The concept of homework is so ingrained
into the minds of teachers that they do not see that it is even bad from
their prospective. Assigning homework means that a teacher must waste
valuable class time going over it when they could be lecturing and teaching
the subject matter just as effectively. In the cases of larger homework
assignments, teachers waste their valuable time grading it. Homework adds
to an already inordinate amount of time spent on education of young America.
The facts of the matter are that m ...

... I would have the right to race with the worlds best.
“Dad look it finally came!” I shouted.
My dad looked at me with silly grin and said “Well you knew it was
coming, you won your 25th race last month.”
As I stood there with a smile bigger than the sun on my face I said “I
know but I am still excited about it. Just think I will be racing side by side
with Damon Bradshaw and Kevin Windham.”
He just smiled and patted me on the back as I turned and walked to my
room. I sat dreaming of the race I will enter next month. I had no idea what
was in store for me at this spectacular event.
As ...

... was bleeding and called out
half dazed, “Albert get out now the car is going to explode!” Now I had
been to shocked to really get scared but when I heard those words fear
crawled down my neck like a spider. I looked at my door and that is when I
got really scared in the crash it had been ruined so badly you couldn’t
open it at all. I knew I was going to die at that very moment and tried to
make peace with God. I know that people say when you think your about to
die your whole life flashes before your eyes, but for me that did not
happen.

Personal Writing: My Vacation At Beech Mountain, North Carolina
Number of Words: 1009 / Number of Pages: 4
... “The Road Less Traveled” when passing through these sections.
Sometimes I sit and observe all of nature’s critters at work: rabbits digging, squirrels playing, and birds chirping. I also enjoy the wonderful views nature has to give. It is absolutely breathtaking: the colors of the flowers in the springtime. Bright yellows, warm reds, soft blues and hushed purples paint the mountainside a beautiful rainbow. I like to write poetry when I’m surrounded with such beauty; not necessarily about what I see, but how I feel and what I dream. Nature inspires my artistic side.
A very special place in m ...

... had a salty smell with a hint of ocean water. The bell peppers, both
green and red, had a tart smell, compared to their fleshy counterparts. My
taste buds watered, but nothing could compare to the next course I was about to
see.
After devouring the hors d'oeurves, the main course was set before us.
The arrangements of Chinese styled meats, rice, and vegetables were scrumptious.
The roasted chicken with its dry skin was covered by an orange sauce with green
onions glued to the surface of the sauce. The rice, darkened to the color of
light brown, housed the pieces of yellow and white scrambled e ...
