... going to go. Kyle affected all of us at school. The next day after
the accident the whole school as grieving. I knew then that Kyle was a
part of us all and when he died a little part of us all died with him.
Kyle was really smart and talented; he wrote poetry, he was accepted to a
good college and he was a really good baseball player too.
This shows me no matter how bright your future looks it could end

... much. These programs are not useful because they don't
satisfy any of the two demands: 1) It doesn't fulfill any of my needs.
2)It's not suitable for a wider audience.
Today, the list of programs I have made, satisfy in a much more
professional way those simple requirements. I have made, in cooperation
with a friend, a game which tests your short-term memory. There must be a
thousand of those on the market today, but 'RecoN' has a very nice
graphical interface, and online help. We released the game as 'shareware'.

Shattered Perfection
Number of Words: 469 / Number of Pages: 2
... to change once I started, and being so young and fickle, that discouraged me from liking things that I could have later on.
The pressure to be perfect in every way has always had an enormous impact on me. It has resulted in pressure I put on myself to be perfect, which has caused a lot of problems and stress in my life. If someone else pressures me in any way, negative or positive, it has a negative effect on me. This also never really resulted in much of what my parents wanted after I reached a certain age.

Number of Words: 478 / Number of Pages: 2
... In all her years, she had never experienced anything this horrible. She sat, glued to her spot in front of the television, and cried. Over and over again, she watched the replay of the shooting and would cry some more. Walter Cronkite’s voice echoed throughout her modest home, repeatedly recounting the tragedy.
Two days later, her entire family gathered at her grandmother’s home for dinner. My mother refused to join them. Instead, she sat fixated to the television. It was around 12:30 noon, as she recalls, that she started screaming, “Oswald’s been shot….Lee Harvey Oswald has been shot.” Sho ...

... to replace mainfold heaters that were available for owner
installation. Those who did not have heaters put hot coals under their car
to get the oil warm before they went into town. In the 30's larger tires
with safety tubes were developed, and carried less air pressure compared to
the old narrow, solid rubber tires which required about sixty pounds of air

recovered the runner had rounded third base and was at least halfway home. The
runner did score on a close play at the plate. The run gave the other team a
two run advantage going into the sixth inning, which was the last in midget
league. I knew at this point I was going to have a hard time facing the other
guys on the team after this big let down. It also made me decide to quit

America's Pastime.

said to my friend,
"Hi, I'm an American, I'm a dumb-ass!"
