It was a cold winter’s day and the snow was falling from the thunderous sky above. The clouds were black and the air crisp. As I looked out the frosty window, which was cold to the touch, the first thing that came to my head was my grandma. My grandma is an elderly woman suffering from dementia at the age eighty-three. She is living in a sixties style bungalow which was far too big for her as she only uses about two of the rooms; one for sleeping in and one for eating and watching television. I thought
In their own minds however, it may be a different story. A loss of strength, a lack of courage, and a never-ending battle within that keeps them all but free.

Growing up I was always surrounded by animals, and I have had a passion to love and care for them for as long as I can remember. Naturally, this made me want to become a veterinarian even though I was barely ten years old. Unfortunately, I realized that things aren’t always as simple as they appear, and just because you love something doesn’t mean you’re meant to do it as a career.

One day, my dog, Roxie, came home from being out side for almost 3 hours. We thought she had been lost and started to call neighbors and family members that live close. The next day she started acting weird. She got a fever and starting pooping and throwing up everywhere in the house. We took her to the vet, to find that she had lime disease. She was put on very strong medication as well aa a cone. She was miserable. After two weeks of this it began to perish. She was fine for two years, but then
“That dog is so futile! All he does is sniff, bark, and whine! I can’t tolerate with such a dog!” I sighed to myself as my beagle, Puddles, circumnavigated around me, twitching his tail. I pushed him away and perambulated off to my room. I am not friends with animals, and even though I live on an old farm with my grandfather and grandmother, animals are not one of my interests. Puddles, was an old dog but with much energy. He was constantly jumping up and down on people with his muddy, and feculent

Invesco Field at Mile High is the newly installed stadium in Denver after they got rid of the old stadium. All of the Denver Bronco home games are put on here. I would have to say that this place is the most memorable place I have ever been too in my life. It was near 11:00 on a Saturday morning when I saw the stadium that was hosting the greatest concert of all time. The stadium had an interesting architecture such in that the top of the stadium had rolling curves as if it was a roller coaster
The sun shines radiantly upon the towering stadium at the corners of Michigan and Trumball. Spring has arrived and erased the dreary, grey weather of winter. The old dilapidated stadium will come to life in a couple of hours to mark the beginning of an anticipated season. Brringg!
