I was beginning to plan a night out for my 22nd birthday celebration with my fiance and my closest friends. I was unsure of where I wanted to celebrate it. A few days before my birthday I had fallen ill and was thinking of celebrating it another weekend so I could rest. I had put in some overtime at work, not eaten the best and had gotten very little sleep, I was convinced that was just it.
Jokingly Roy, my fiance, suggested I take a pregnancy test, I didn 't until it started messing with my head as if I should or shouldn 't. I took one, and it was negative. When I took the second test, it was positive. We were happy, but I didn 't want to get high hopes and it possibly could have been a false positive. The next day, when I got up, I felt very dizzy. My fiance made me my usual shake which I drank with no problem. We both got ready for work and left our home to start our days. He went to his job, and I went to my job the usual as I got to work I started feeling extremely dizzy, I toke a 15minute break and toke some medicine.
Hours into my shift, I started bleeding from my nose which was random. my manager told me to go home and get some rest. He knew I had been overworking myself. I called my fiance and he suggested I go to the emergency room to make sure I was okay.

I was 6weeks and 3 days pregnant, November 20th, 2013 was the day my life was changed forever. I already had a 2-year-old toddler and now twins on the way.

He was freaked out I had randomly called him at work. I told him, “Kevin I 'm pregnant with twins, I 'm at the hospital.” He asked if I was joking.

In Truman Capote’s “Children on Their Birthdays,” the reader is allowed to see the ability one person has to effect a community. Through the character of Miss Bobbit, Capote shows all of the different effects, both positive and negative, that a young girl was able to have on an entire town. Through the effects of Miss Bobbit, the reader sees how a small shakeup in what is expected to be normal can benefit something for the better.
Truman Capote created a character in "Children on Their Birthdays" who is the definition of a dreamer. Her name is Miss Bobbit and although she is only a child, everyone who knew her addressed her as Miss Bobbit because "she had a certain magic, whatever she did she did it with completeness, and so directly , so solemnly, that there was nothing to do but accept it". When she introduced herself as Miss Bobbit people would "snicker", yet she was still known as Miss Bobbit.

Im now seventeen but when I was going to turn fifteen I planned and did a party, which turn out to be a disaster. About a month before my birthday I was organizing everything, but it wasn't easy, thinking about the design of the dress was pretty difficult and also planning the whole party was terrific and very stressing. I remember how stressed I was, I eat my nails and my hands sweat because of the stress I had by then, but as days passed I was getting excited waiting for the day to arrive.
Pregnancy can be an exciting and sometimes frightening experience for many women. It was a snowy Sunday afternoon, and I was not feeling very well. I remember all week long, every morning I felt nauseated. I was craving odd foods, and foods I normally would not eat together. I was on the phone with my best friend explaining to her how I was feeling. She said “It sounds like you are pregnant.” That thought never even crossed my mind until that moment. Sure enough she was right, I was pregnant for the first time. I was excited to have a baby and never realized how many emotions or complications can take place during a pregnancy. Everybody that I knew that had babies, had such wonderful experiences. Unfortunately, this happy moment became such a monumental, emotional and stressful time in my life. During my pregnancy, I went through many emotional experiences from almost losing my child, to the uncertainty of a birth defect and early delivery.
It was August 25, 2006 and I just received the news that I was going to have a baby. At that moment so many thoughts ran through my mind. I was extremely nervous and terr...
Battling a miscarriage a couple years prior, my mother was feeling mixed emotions. Around this time, I was a senior in high school so the news was neutral for me being that I was the only child for eighteen years. I did not know if I should rejoice or complain because I was leaving for college soon. My brother was born about two weeks before my high school graduation, and I must say that it was a very intense and complicated birth being that my mother was nearly forty giving birth to her second child.
Now let’s fast forward to a few months later. It was a Friday and I was going home with one of my friends after school to spend the night. It was her cousins 17th birthday so we all went out to a popular restaurant to celebrate. While at dinner with my friend and basically her entire family, it happened again, I had my second seizure. This time while at the emergency room the doctor referred me to ...
The story you are about to read is a "real" but not really "real" account of a murder and how someone completely ruined my birthday party! Any day that we are alive is another opportunity to carpe diem and celebrate. If y'all are anything like me, you're always looking for a reason to throw a party so I figured my birthday was a pretty good time to do so. As the madam of a brothel, I already had the perfect location for my party, Southern University Museum of Art at Shreveport (SUMAS).
My second event was a little different. It was the event the totally changed my view of life. The unforgettable day was my wedding day. April 29th in the year 2002 was the day when I became responsible for my own life. Even though I have so many responsibilities I would never regret the moment I agreed to be my husbands wife. My wedding ceremony was the event that I dreamed of since I was a little girl. I imagined every detail of it. It was like a fairy tale wedding. I was wearing the most elegant dress in the world. There were three hundred people at the ceremony. I would never forget such a beautiful day.
I told my boyfriend who was the captain of our football team three weeks after I found out, about the pregnancy. ?What?? He yelled out in surprise, with his six feet four inches, two hundred and ten pounds body shaking from fear. ?We can work through this baby? I told him, trying to soothe his spirit. I remembered Jake and I always being happy, we were the perfect couple. I thought I knew him but with the condition I was in he proved me wrong. ?I love you and with this love we will conquer anything that becomes an obstacle,? he once told me. This situation on the other hand was different. He had dreams, and with so much potential, the last thing Jak...
It was a day of eager anticipation. It was a day of last-minute planning. It was the day before my fourteenth birthday. I had been looking forward to the party for at least two months. Everything was accounted for: balloons, Super Soakers, and music. There would be a barbeque of magnificent proportions. Miraculously, everyone had read the RSVP deadline and called in a week ahead of schedule. An enormous ice cream cake was to be delivered with eight large pepperoni pizzas. Needless to say, I was excited. It was to be my first party at our new house. I helped cook the enormous array of snack foods. I eventually surrendered to the temptation and stole a few strips of marinated steak when my mom wasn't looking. I had gone to bed that night with dreams of family, friends, and possibly a new stereo system.
It was December 4, 2014 and it was snowing outside. I was sitting at the kitchen table doing homework. All my family was downstairs, so I was all alone. My English teacher told us to write a paper about how I am different from my classmates. I was thinking about what in my life makes me different and slowly my whole life was playing like a movie in my head. The first memory that popped into my head was my fourth birthday party. It was supposed to be the best birthday ever. My dad was going to come. It was February 24, 2002 at my birthday party. There were so many people there, but I was so focused on my dad coming, no one else seemed to matter. My cake was pink and yellow with a bicycle on it. I had a red and blue inflatable that kids were
Childhood is the most unforgettable period of my life. Everyone has childhood memories. My childhood memories took place in Eritrea. These memories that are happiest and saddest memories are still in my mind. Sometimes I remember things that have happened in my childhood period and they just make me laugh. Childhood memories can be bad or good, but we can’t forget them. For these reasons, childhood memories are the most important parts of my life. Specifically, also I have some good memories of childhood.
It was my mother’s birthday, I forgot which birthday it was. Two weeks before that day, I was thinking about what should I do for her birthday. I thought about getting her a present and a card, but it seemed to me too dull. I wonder what can I do to let her remember that birthday for the rest of her life, although I cannot remember which birthday it was. I thought of one thing that I always wanted to change about birthday — the cake. I was young and I believed that the cake was really important for birthdays. Previously, the cakes were standard, they taste and look average, they were either chocolate or vanilla flavored with standard bakery decorations on the them, on top, they were always slapped on a white chocolate “Happy Birthday” sign. There I go, I can bake a cake for her from scratch, a unique one which she will never forget about.
