Number of Words: 5097 / Number of Pages: 19
... and all the employees at the store I started at were new to each
other. That is they had worked for the company at other stores but had not
worked together. I was hired when the manager went to his yearly manager
meeting in Reno. When I was hired I was hired on as a delivery
driver. The delivery driver is responsible for all of the deliveries and
pick-ups of store merchandise. The only training that I received were two
videos. One video was on "Smith's Safe Driving Techniques", and the other
was "In-Home Deliveries and In-Store Deliveries". Through working
with the company I learned many new t ...

Personal Writing: What I Learned This Semester In English Class
Number of Words: 713 / Number of Pages: 3
... at producing good output. Also, my goal
isn't to write a paper that will get a good grade. Now, my goal is to
write better papers. I write to become a better writer.
That is, I feel, a very important thing that I learned this semester. I
don't think, "O.K., I have to get at least a B on this paper." Instead, I
think, "O.K., I have to use this assignment to improve my work." This is a
much better approach because it causes the writer to try to produce a well
written piece. Writing for a grade often causes the writer to do just
enough to get by.
I also learned that it is much easier to pro ...

... to see her bedroom. She was safe,
at least for now.
Her mother opened the door, slowly. She smiled and said, "So,
you're awake, sleepyhead. Listen, Julie is here, time for school, summer
vacation's over."
As her mother left, she got out of bed. She got out from her
covers, and she noticed a few small scrapes on her leg. She thought that
she must have cut herself on the way home the day before. She quickly got
dressed, and walked out the front door. Julie was standing in front of her
car, a gift for her last birthday. Robin hopped in Julie's new car. "I had
the weirdest dream la ...

... foggy sea
zone where dozens of ships have been vanishing lately without a trace. Let
me tell you it was not a lot of fun!
Interviewer: I see. Could you also please tell me why you ventured down-
Mr. Pitt: Sure. I was sent down there to find it, and salvage it, all
before the sea explodes.
Interviewer: Um, find and salvage what?
Mr. Pitt: Oh yeah, the STARBUCK. It's the latest American super-sub, an
underwater nuclear arsenal. So I had to go down there and disassemble all
the nuclear warheads before they're reached by foreign terrorists. And I
wasn't kidding, it really was no fun! All th ...

Our Father-Son Relationship
Number of Words: 380 / Number of Pages: 2
... with me.
Our relationship now is a lot better than ever after getting some major counseling. After a counseling session, my father came up to me with tears coming from his eyes, saying, “I love you.” I can also remember his putting his tree trunk arms around me, hugging so tight, not letting go. Since counseling, we talk all the time and go many places together. I am so glad our relationship and friendship has tightened rather than lose my father completely.
Parents in today’s world play a huge role in children’s lives. Perhaps my father had an extremely bad temper because his fat ...

Personal Writing: Why I Need A Car

... hours to get
anywhere. The closest commercial area to my house is Park Royal and that
is a two hour walk away. There are no small stores and if I want milk, the
closest store is in North Vancouver, would you believe. I guess they
expect everyone to be so rich, so they can afford a car for every member in
the family (think again). Waiting for the buses in the freezing rain or
snow is so annoying. If I just had a car, I could jump into my it and
drive to Park Royal in a fraction of the time. I wouldn't have to wait for
buses anymore and I wouldn't have to stand in the terrible weather waiting
for ...

... would stop us and make an example of whoever messed up.
He would say, "Did everyone see what Bryan just did? That is what you should
not do." He would then gripe a little and after that we would continue our
practice. I feel that this method of coaching during practice made my teammates
and I closer as a team during the game, but we always dreaded practice. I
prefer the nice-guy coaching method during practice. This makes practice more
fun. The coach is serious about making our team better, but he realizes that
people are not perfect. During calisthenics he would talk to us about our day
at sch ...

Following A Dream Toward Freedom

... threatened by the
lack of food they receive. Imagining the things they go through everday makes me
wonder about my freedoms. Why is it that I can go to my refrigerator whenever I
want and be able to get a nice, clean drink of water. When Meanwhile in some
foreign country some 10 year old kid, who has the same thirst as I do has to go
to a lake where the animals bathe to get a foul, disease infested drink.
Knowing about these peoples sufferings really makes me realize how important
and how special the freedoms that Americans posses are. I believe everyone
takes their freedoms for granted. We are ...

... kept talking
but I couldn't hear her. If it was because of the music or just how
shocked I was. Anyway she started to walk away and she motioned for me to
follow her. In my state of shock I followed her through the crowd to their
dressing room backstage.
Being backstage was the experience of my life; I never wanted to
leave. Everything was free and to me at the time the two best things were
I was underage and drinking and I was hanging out with my favorite band.
When I finally sat down and talked to them I could not believe how laid
back and happy to talk to me they where. I mean they didn't ca ...

... clearly
an unwanted and certainly uninvited guest, but not even the many fathoms of
jet black water could keep him from his prey. He fed on fear, and the
greatest feast of all was just beginning.
Meanwhile, the mouse began to grow restless in his hole.
"Helm," the voice was confidant, "bring us about to a new bearing -
6148 mark 72."
"Yes, sir, coming to new bearing." Moments ago this new voice had
been sure and strong but a trace of trepidation could be detected. "Sir...",
the anxiety in the sonar officer's voice grew rapidly. Now, like an animal
trapped in a cage, the voice grew ...
