One leader that I admire is my mother. She has taught me to do everything to the best of my ability, work hard, and be resilient. When my parents were in the process of getting a divorce, my mom went through many difficult times. Nevertheless, she always stayed strong and did a terrific job of taking care of my little brother and I. When I was eleven years old, my mom introduced me to cycling. Since then she has completed three century rides which are one-hundred mile bike rides. After she finished
From observing myself in a game situation these are what I consider are my strengths and weaknesses for Netball and why I think each one is a strength or weakness. Strengths Weaknesses > Shooting > Shoulder Pass > Bounce Pass > Chest Pass > Pivoting > Footwork > High-running Pass > Reaction Time > Agility > Speed Strengths: Strength 1: Shooting is one of my strengths as I think I perform it correctly. By correctly I mean having a balanced position (standing
Three states, 12,000 feet of climbing over three mountain passes, 206 miles, killer views, must be done before sunset, my goal was to finish in less than 10 hours! LOTOJA, is a bike race that changed my life, from thinking 'what am I doing', to overcoming obstacles, including breaking my neck. My crazy story with LOTOJA all started a couple years before when my parents, unbeknownst to me, signed me up for LOTOJA as part of a family trip to Jackson Hole Wyoming. I was about to return from a 2 year
As I began to walk across the oily, old railroad ties of the run down train bridge, my nerves slowly began to build within me. No railings, nothing to hold onto, I tried not to overthink my steps. Stepping from one railroad tie to the next with a small gap in between each tie, I could see straight down into the water below. I only had to make it to the other side of the bridge and I knew everything would be okay. Halfway across the bridge I started to become more confidant and comfortable with each
The abandoned mine down between the hills hidden out of site, not even marked on maps, carries a reputation of horror and mysterious events. Only the bravest of the brave even consider entering the abandoned mine since the only thing that has left it are stories of what happens beyond its entrance. The mine has been abandoned for 80 years, and whatever goes into that place never comes out. Although these stories should be enough to keep me far away from that mine, I let my curiosity get the best
Vacations with my dad began like ritual; the ceremonial collecting of every brochure and pamphlet in sight and the eventual sacrifice of our down time by meticulous scheduling that filled every second of our trip with some or the other activity. Our trip to Cape Town, South Africa was no different. Seconds struggled by as I found myself, once again, waiting for my parents to finish talking to the tourist relations agent in our hotel. They had laid out every single brochure on the counter, and
You can’t take it anymore. If you have to look at those scratches in the living room floor, the foot traffic stains down the hallway, the Kool-aid stains under the dining room table, or the chipped tile in the kitchen one more time, you might go off the edge and wind up in the looney bin. You are tired of going to a friend’s home and secretly envying their perfect looking floors. Gone are the days of flipping through magazines and drooling over the pictures of nicely decorated rooms with flooring

On June 27, 2015, my entire life flashed before my eyes. I never could have anticipated what that particular day had in store for me and my best friend, Virginia. It was the day after my birthday and I felt the excitement built up in my chest as we drove to Charleston, South Carolina to celebrate on the beach. It was our last summer together before we both headed off to college and all I hoped for were a few last joyful moments spent soaking up the sun before we had to part ways. I thought the trip
How tall would you like to be? We live in a culture that commends or even glorifies height - like it is a virtue that someone has worked towards. Height is almost completely determined by genetics - so a reward for being tall seems a little unfair, don't you think? You were born with the genes you're stuck with - and there isn't much you can do about it. Or is there? The struggle to be tall Most kids, especially boys, yearn to be tall. The short kids are the ones picked last on teams, made fun of
Legends of Bigfoot told for hundreds of generations. Myths of ancient sacred burial grounds that generate paranormal activity. Tales of legendary people who dwell in secret societies beneath the mountains surface. From natural, to supernatural events, the volcanic Mount Shasta, is the originator of many campfire-worthy stories. The more that’s revealed about this Northern Californian landmark, the more it seems to be the true ‘Magic Mountain’ of the west coast. As intriguing it may be, there’s more
"Sky! Skyrus! Come back!" I heard my mother, Nevaeh, call to me. I didn't respond, I just flew faster. Being an angel isn't as easy as you would think, but being a hybrid between an angel and a vampire bat or Vampyrus is even harder. Mostly because of my wings. The shape was that of any normal angel wings except mine were raven black and the feathers only came down half way. The other halves, while still black, were leathery like a bats. To be honest, the entire lower halves were like giant bat wings
items” like “the Metric system.” BBC’s Fraser Mcalpine has an alternative way of thinking. Fraser believes that the Metric system is used best in currency and actual measurements, while the imperial system is better for everyday life. Even if people aren’t willing to go just the Metric system, or just the Imperial system, this provides the middleground that can make many people happy. Although, this could pose a risk in the long run, because using two systems in the country could present turmoil. Due
Bluegill Fishing When bluegill fishing, really big bluegills are rougher to find than trout and harder to catch than bass. Although small bluegills are a pushover, locating and catching their slab-sided elders can involve solving some tricky problems. Bluegill, sunny and panfish are just a few of the names given to this scrappy fighter. Catching bragging-sized limits of this colorful fish takes know-how and skill. I will attempt to define some of the toughest problems in bluegill fishing, and to
What Being Tall Means to Me For me, being tall is something that is engrained in every single cell of my being. In my case, my height is due to two completely different causes. The first reason for my tallness is that my father is 6’3”. Having a father this tall was mostly likely going to mean that I would not be petite. The second reason for my height was that I was also born with a genetic disorder called Trisomy X. This means I have an extra x chromosome. With this chromosome anomaly typically
Adolphe Appia was a lighting designer that lived from 1862-1928. However, his legacy and theories on lighting and stage design will forever live on and continue to influence the world of live theatre. Adolphe Appia was born in Geneva, Switzerland in 1862. He grew up in a very practical household, with very little to inspire Appia artistically. His father was a well renowned physician and was a very stern and forbidding figure in young Appia’s life. This caused him to become very introverted
