Recommended: The PERSPECTIVE OF GENEROSITY

After a long stay in Europe I have returned to Charleston and have begun working and preparing for college. After reflecting on my entire trip I would like to sincerely thank both of you for providing me with a once in a lifetime experience. I would first like to thank you for your hospitality and generosity. Being able to stay in your home, eat meals with your family, and travel with you all to Sils Maria for a special hike and vacation was a true blessing that I immensely appreciate. All of the home cooked meals were delicious, and I especially enjoyed our dining room conversations (and ping pong games). I always felt welcome in your home and in your presence, which made my stay even better. Spending time with Johanna and Carl Jr. made

  • Spanish Thanksgiving Research Paper

    Since thanksgiving is coming up, I’ve been reflecting on the things I’m thankful for that I don't thank often enough. One of those things is you. I'm very glad I had you in Spanish for both sixth and seventh grade because you really brought out my love of Spanish. I never thought I had it in me to learn another language but with your help I got an amazing start with Spanish. You always encouraged us students to learn Spanish so that we could actually know it, not just to get our worksheets done. Your Spanish classes have motivated me to continue learning Spanish even after high school.

  • Graduation Speech: Tonight We Cross the Finish Line

    510 Words  | 2 Pages

    Congratulations, County High Class of 2012, our thirteen-year marathon is over. Some of you may know I am a distance runner, part of an immensely successful cross-country and distance track program. We were fourth at the state cross-country championships, and we are the best senior boys team in the state. My involvement in athletics truly linked me with our school and granted me friends whom I will remember for a lifetime. One of the most important aspects of my time in high school was getting involved. Wherever your next journey takes you, don't sit back and watch the action. Take the initiative and you will experience the benefits. Just look around you. These are the people you grew up with, the people you were teammates with and the people you have survived dozens of classes with for the last four years. They are not merely faces in a yearbook. They are your people, your community, your family. They are the greatest benefit of being involved.

  • A Trip To Mexico: The Last Trip To Mexico

    It has been a very long time that I haven’t been to Mexico for so many years and the reason being because of how many things have happened so fast after the last time I actually went to see my family over at Mexico. All I see now is a still photo of me with my family taking a portrait of us completing church service after my grandparents have gotten married with each other and still remember in my head that very moment. Today I am going to write about how it all led to the last moment I managed to have a more heartfelt but sad moment with my family before I had to go back to my birth home which is in the United States.
