When I was a growing up I grew up with one of my cousin Fabian and my little brother Memo. We would all play games but the one I liked the most was pushing each other down a hill riding a bike. Well first we were around 7-8 years old so we knew how to ride a bike. My cousin and I were the oldest and my little brother well the youngest at that time. So we would go to the back yard and then we had a hill and then that’s where we used to play. So we told my little brother to get on the bike because he was gonna go first and then he did. After that Fabian and I pushed him down the hill he was fine because when he was almost getting near the house he threw himself of to the side and we would try, and fall onto a slip and slide that had water and then he slid down. After that we would all laugh at how fun it was after all. But at first the idea was to go down the hill riding the bike. But then when it was really hot we wanted to get wet. So put the slip and slide which was way funner once we had to throw ourselves onto it while we fell. After I was gonna be my turn to go and then I got on the bike and then I told them, “ok i’m ready” …show more content…
Then after I jumped of the bike I remember that I barely made it onto the slip and slide. Then I heard my brothers laughing at me cause I guess they thought it was funny how I fell onto the slip and slide. I was laughing and screaming after I was done I guess that I learned how to be brave with them. Which I thought it was fun when we played boy games as my aunts told me that I had to play with dolls and girl games. But my dad and my uncles always supported me they said don’t listen to them you can play whatever you want. After my aunts still bought me dolls to play with and then I would tell my
We hit a down hill point so we grabbed drift wood. It would save man power and be faster to sled down. The rest helped Landon out the most because he was the smallest so he didn 't have energy left to use. But this refreshed him so we could keep going. Time was not on are side. The only thing keeping us alive was the fact that if we got out we would be the first ones ever to make it out not dead. It was about the hottest point in the day now and we had to find shade or we would get to dehydrated and die. We drank all the water we had just to fine out that we had a under ground stream below
As time went by, we were hungry, so we ate food and bought drinks during the day. While we ate lunch, my friend told me that he still was hungry, so he got more food! After lunch, we changed into our bathing suits and decided to go to the water park. We went down long water slides. “I’m not going in the lazy river,” shouted Gavin.
The novel “Little Brother” starts of with four teenagers getting mixed up in an explosion while playing a role playing game, they then get arrested by the Department of Homeland Security and are later then questioned and even abused. In the end, they are released, but one of them, Darryl, was not and the DHS refused to tell the group where he was. After this event, one of the four teenagers, Marcus, started to revolt against the DHS through technological attacks and he creates a network of teenagers, called the Xnet, using the X-box consul to communicate. In the later part of the novel, he tells a trusted reporter about the ordeal that he and his friends went through. When the report was published he was yet again imprisoned by the DHS. During a waterboarding interrogation, the local troopers raided the compound where the DHS were staying and in the end they were able to free Darryl and many others who were being interrogated by the DHS. The novel was heavily influenced by Orwellian ideas, specifically George Orwell’s “Nineteen Eighty Four”; it tackles issues about social movements. Which is well connected with Manuel Castells’ Network Society, in which he discusses as to how the characteristics of a network society; he informs us that power lies in those who are part of this network society and are able to influence other social actors. Because the spread of information is so horizontal in this society ideas spread fast and makes it the perfect platform for social movements, like Marcus’ Xnet, to arise.
My younger cousins were pretty much running around and chasing each other the whole time.
I was 5 years old, I was shy and didn’t have much courage and talk to people. Making friends was always hard. So sitting with my mom and helping her with my baby brother was what I chose to do the whole game. Like I said, ‘I chose’. My mom told me that we had just won our first game and that we had about an hour wait before we went on to play our second game. She wanted me to go play with this big group of kids. They were all my age, More than half was boys and maybe there was about two girls. I had said, “Ok”. But inside, my heart was racing, my brain was telling
One day my father and grandpa went fishing but I wanted to go with them, but I had no experience, they would not teach me, and they were going to leave in 3 hours. Before trying to convince my father and grandfather again I talked to my mother and for some reason she knew how to fish so she taught me some basic skills. After the small training session there was about 5 minutes left and my father and grandfather were checking for any hideaways in the car. As they were doing a final check I sneaked in with a fishing rod and a cap and lay inside the car speechless. At the fishing spot, my father and grandfather unloaded their supplies and I fell onto the dirt floor, when they discovered I stowed away they were mad but I told my father and grandpa that I wanted to go fishing with them and they accepted my
We were traveling thought all the beautiful places and cities in the country. During our vacation, one day we stopped at a restaurant in a small town. As we were eating, my 16-year-old cousin said to me hurry up, finish your meal and we’ll go play outside. I was a little boy just turned six years. I was excited to go play outside with my cousin, so I was the first one to finish with my meal.
When we got to the bottom Tennessee and I were laughing and throwing up our arms in victory. Anna wasn't too happy with us at first but she got over it, though she never did go down The Death Slide that day.
Once I carried him milk in a bottle Corked sloppily with paper. He straightened up To drink it, then fell to right away Nicking and slicing neatly, heaving sods Over his shoulder, going down and down For the good turf. Digging.
I slid on bright and colorful slides. We had playgrounds in elementary school. When my friends and I went to middle
the age of sixteen. At that age, I was only 13 and was well informed that she had started
On that fateful day in March, I was a couple months shy of my third birthday. My family and I lived in New Mexico at the time and were renting a house with an outdoor in-ground pool. The day was beautiful. I was outside with my oldest sister Rachel and my father. Rachel was diligently reading curled up on a bench that sat against the house, and my father was mowing the backyard. My mother and my other sister were in the house. Off to one side of the house there was a group of large bushes. I was playing over there with one of her large cooking pots, off in my own little world. At one point while amusing and en...
When I was young, Uncle Mick would take the time and play with siblings and myself. He would do everything such as chasing me, playing board games, and card games. I would watch history on television with him, and old War Movies. We not only played but there was hours of fishing, hunting, and game being cleaned, which was all fun for a young boy like me.
All of my cousins and I were inside throwing stuffed animals at one another from the bunk beds in the basement because it was the only place in the house where it was cool. It was like a game of dodgeball but with stuffed animals instead of balls. The reason we played this game with stuffed animals was because there were three whole bins full of old stuffed animals. All the stuffed animals were kind of beat up and smelled like dust. We were playing this game happily but things were getting intense and very competitive because Henry and Grady were on opposing teams and they are each other's biggest rivals. Henry and Grady, my 2nd cousins, are brothers. Henry is a year older than Grady.
One of my favorite past times with my brother is playing video games. I don’t fully understand the games that we would play so I can’t really go too into detail on what we they were like or even how to play them. I’m really not never very good at them and most every time my brother beats me. Either way it is a wonderful way to bond with him.
