ear Diary Today is Tuesday, I was awakened by my brother leaning over me his cold fingers brushing over my unkempt hair, he whispered softly in my ear telling me to wake up. Just as I reached for my jacket, I heard the harsh sound of a siren, alerting us to the danger that, as I look back now was the last thing I remember before my life changed forever. I remember the scented flowers perfume overwhelming us as we drive in the car that is barely functional, feeling the full extent of the potholes as the car has no shock absorbers. As we drive into the towns port I notice a figure walking towards our car. I still remember to this day the face of the officer as he stared past the plastic windshield of our car, his narrow eyes focusing on

    When I woke we were just outside the city. When we reached the very edge of the city we were stopped and surrounded by countless hordes of people. The truck rocked, swayed, and squeaked as the people smacked against the sides of the truck. Everybody was a blur as I began to panic as we were surrounded. But then I realized they weren't out to hurt us they just wanted their voices to be heard. I couldn’t understand a word that they were saying though because there so many different people yelling things. It all kind of just faded into one loud roar that wouldn’t die down.

  • Personal Narrative: My Chemical Romance

    273 Words  | 1 Pages

    The first band I chose was My Chemical Romance because, I have heard of them before but had never listened to them. I first listened to two of their songs Welcome to the Black Parade and Teenagers from their album The Black Parade. Then I listened to another two Helena (So Long & Goodnight) and I’m Not Okay (I Promise) from their album Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge. After listen to these songs by My Chemical Romance they have a very loud and emotion filled voices, which is good because I believe they want to get the point across that there are bad things that happen in life but one cannot dwell on it. I would put My Chemical Romance in the rock genre because, they use a lot of percussion instruments like the drums and the guitar. I like their

  • Essay About Fragrance

    Aromas we smell are processed in the limbic system of the brain which is where emotions and memories are stored. So we are literally tapping into a very deep part of the brain when sniffing a fragrance. There is no filter on the sense of smell either, so we drop into those emotions or memories instantly. This can happen out of the blue, when we least expect it. A stranger on the street might wear the same cologne as a first lover, causing us to feel breathless and sentimental. Perhaps the scent of a musty cabinet might smell exactly like grandmother’s attic where we used to play as a child triggering joyful memories. Scent is powerful. In products it might achieve a myriad of results like give us confidence, keep us calm, or make us feel sexy. A well-fragranced product should be a gift and tool for the

    Two-thirds of children who participate in extracurricular activities are expected to attain at least a bachelor’s degree, whereas only half of children that do not participate do (National Center for Education Statistics, 1995). Childhood is a very important time in our lives, a time when we develop many vital skills that follow us into adulthood. Some people laugh or scoff at us parents that keep our children to busy schedules. Those same people would also argue that our children should be allowed to have a childhood, to not be so tightly scheduled in their daily lives. Before jumping on that bandwagon, I would suggest doing a little research. Participating in after-school activities has shown to benefit children in many ways. Children should
