What I Would Place In A Time Capsule
Number of Words: 551 / Number of Pages: 3
... the new information and technology of today, computers
serve as the most useful tool for teaching and productivity across the
globe. With the aid of computers, new and better systems are manufactured
and put to work constantly. The amount of data storage, speed, and
processing power is increasing exponentially, and the obsolete models are
taken off shelves and out of business to be replaced. Within the next ten
years alone, computers will have evolved to what most of us can't even
perceive now. By placing a top of the line computer system into our time
capsule, we can provide our futu ...

Creative Writing: The Meadow

... back. Birds flew through the radiant blue sky diving for
insects. My thoughts reflect relaxation as my mind focuses on the pleasing
imagery.
The sounds of the meadow complement the beautiful imagery, and create a
sense of inner peace and harmony. The soothing sounds drifted across the meadow
like an orchestra playing at Carnegie Hall. The buzzing of the bees feeding on
pollen made up the chorus. A woodpecker kept a steady beat as he drilled a hole
in the oak tree. Birds whistling, and peeping formed the brass section like
trumpets playing an excerpt from the 1812 Overture. All these sounds ...

Personal Writing: Good Art

... awe. All I could
say was “that is the best movie in history!”
In my mind, the movie was perfect. It was full of everything that
I like in a movie. It had mystery, suspense, and most of all it was a
thriller. I got to try to figure out who the killer was and as it turned
out, there was actually two killers which made it even better. Another
thing that was good about it was that you never knew what was going to
happen. There were so many different parts in the movie where I had no
clue what was going to happen or who was hiding where. This movie
literally kept me on the edge of me seat. ...

Personal Writing: Joining The Track Team
Number of Words: 1273 / Number of Pages: 5
... going to take to be on the track team, they “would not tolerate anything but 110% from every single person,” and this I was willing to give. So I informed my boss at work that I would no longer be available to work in the afternoons and that I could only come in after 6 o’clock. Practice was to be held immediately after school, until 5:30 p.m., and that was only if we got all of our exercises done. That Tuesday we all met out on the track, I can remember the day. It was chilly, and there was a mild drizzle. We were all bundled up in layers of clothes, huddled together trying to be excited for what ...

Personal Writing: Fragment - Changes In Life
Number of Words: 1149 / Number of Pages: 5
... these can change you both
physically and mentally for the rest of your life depending on the severity of
the situation.
In early August of `96 my life at home became a living nightmare. I
don't really know what it was that started this thing between me and my parents
but I do remember that they were always doing anything they could to just annoy
me. I doubt this was intentional but at the time it seemed that it was. They
would find any excuse to yell or blame me for things that didn't even involve me
and they wouldn't listen to anything I had to say at all. They were right and I
was wrong, that ...

Personal Writing: Why I Should Receive This Scholarship
Number of Words: 384 / Number of Pages: 2
... the world. This was a project
where I could help use my skills to help others. This project was not only
about helping those less fortunate than myself. This was a project that
would help build my confidence, and help realize what a joy it is to me to
help those who are in need. Because of my exposure to this and other
community service projects, I know that I want to keep assisting those who
need help. I want to keep climbing up this ladder. I want to keep assessing
my skills to answer to the needs of people in my community, while making
myself a better person.
To sum it up, I think I should recie ...

My Cultural Experiences And Their Influence

... and experience it themselves. Playing Thai traditional instrument manifests one of my researches. I learned to cooperate, function and focus with other people. I also learned to try my best as a leader of the band with full responsibilities and never give up. My other research would be my relation with my religion as a Buddhist. What I learned from my religion definitely uplifted my spirit and souls. I discover more of my inner self each time I meditate. This is the reason why I started to get involved in my community and try to commit the extra time I have to help others. Every minutes a ...

My Man

... down by
the water and fantasized about how wonderful it would be if it were me with
him. Soon though, in thinking that, my anguish turned into anger, and my
anger into hatred. Hatred for that mean girl who had what belonged to me! I
wanted to go up to her and hit her across the face and I wanted to show her
who was the boss. I wanted to show her what happens to people who are rude
to me.
In my thoughts, I saw them both running up to the water, hand in hand,
laughing. I sat there, staring at the girl, wishing as hard as I could
that something could perhaps attack her or something, leaving me wit ...

... arm. My heart sank as I searched for the open wound. My first thought was that he cut a vein in his wrist and panic raced through my body with the fear that he would bleed to death before I could get him to the hospital. As quickly as I could, I grabbed him from the floor and ran to the bathroom to get a towel and wrapped it around his wrist. I flew out the door and down the street to a neighbor, bare feet and all. I pounded on the door like a maniac and screamed "help, my son is bleeding to death." She let me in and took Travis from me. Her boyfriend, Bill, who happened to be friends with my bo ...

Personal Writing: "Do You Want To Go To Space Camp This Summer?"
Number of Words: 735 / Number of Pages: 3
... I thought it was senseless to come here if I only talked with
Japanese friends. On the second day, we were divided into teams with three
to five Americans on a team. I tried to use my poor English to make
American friends, but it was really difficult. First, I could not even
introduce myself without looking at my note book in which I had written a
few sentences down. Second, the Americans had never had any Asian friends,
so they were surprised when I bowed, and they asked me many questions.
They tried to understand my English, which sometimes took a few minute,
even to ask where the b ...
