Alternative Ending: Megan Feller and Becca Gulland

I gave him the directions, the aisle S-U, I saw him walking up to that aisle like he knew exactly what he was looking for. I couldn't breathe, I've only felt this way once before.

I tuck into the aisle of P-R. I don't know if I should cry or smile. I don't know how to feel, or react. Should I even show my face at this point? I've lived my whole life as a lie. I felt as if I had nothing to lose. I start to feel like I should just dip out of the store, but right before I could move I felt a hand on my shoulder, a warm muscular hand. I slowly turned not knowing what I should feel. Olly's face, his perfect, flawless, lovable face is right there, his half smile just sitting on his face, kinda like how I pictured the seashells on a beach. He grabs my hand and pulls me into his chest, I'm still in shock. I pull away and was about to talk but the words don't come out right. My words come out as "Ihrbe suihen Ifjhi" He just giggles and says I missed you Mads. I finally find my words to say I love you Olly. He kisses my forehead and grabs my hand as we walk out of the old bookstore, I catch him up on my story about how my mother lied. He catches me up on how his mother finally made the decision to leave his dad. We walk and talk for hours and then agree that we will stay together, and we will live half way between my mother and his, and include my mother in every holiday and that we will talk everyday.

Tonight: Career Day

I was surprised to find out that the police officer actually was a teacher at first. This was a shock because this is kinda how I wanted to become a nurse. Something I experienced made me realize that I wanted to change something, which is people's lifes, so I want to become a nurse. The main reason is because I want help people but the other reason is a lot of the male nurse's are pretty hit :p

Ideas for these Essays

One idea would be to write about my diabetic experience and how it interferes with my education.

Another idea would be to write about who influenced me most in my life and how they influenced me.

The third idea would be to write how I can be helpful to the community and what I can give to the community, in this prompt I could also write about how humans take away from the community and something I did specifically (if anything)

Some traits that a women may contain within that would make them formidable is bossy. Bossy isn't always a good thing but if someone seems to be bossy they aren't afraid to be mean to the a job done. Women in today's world tend to take control of many things. In many class projects I am involved with girls are the ones who tend to take the lead. So because many women tend to do this, it could be one of the reasons why they seen more formidable. Women however feel as if they need to be like this otherwise they get walked over.

What are your goals for college?

My goals for college is honestly not to flunk out the first year. All my teachers say that they are preparing us for college but I don't feel prepared, I feel dumb. So my number one goal for college is not to flunk put the first year. I want to live on campus so hopefully everything works out with that. Also I am hoping to actually get money back from the amount of scholarships that I receive but because of  how dumb I feel I doubt that it will happen. I want to go to college because both my parents didn't go to college and I want to succeed with a good paying job. I want to be able to help people medically and I can't do that without succeeding in college. Like I said before I am extremely nervous about flunking out my first year of college. I am excited though for having only few classes a day being able to pick my schedule and things like that. After college I hope to get a job in the hospital, not exactly sure what department yet, but I want to work with children or people in a medical fashion, so I would want to work in a hospital or doctor's office.

What's your favorite type of drink?

Movie Review: Marley Me

Marley and Me was one of my favorite movies because straight from the start it shows that not all friendships start off exactly as planned, there are many up and downs with every friend as well.

In Marley and Me there is a scene where there is a thunder storm, where Marley is alone in the house and Marley destroys the whole house. Now even though Marley destroyed the house and got his owners pissed, Marley and his owner still share loving memories especially when his owners have children.

I really encourage everyone who hasn't seen the movie to watch it. It has a very sad ending which many people have to go through. It's a movie many people can connect and love the movie.

Should we get free food?

Yes

No

Jake Miller, age 23, has been one of my favorite artists since he was 19. This song specifically makes me feel as if I am the only me in the world. This song taught me that if I want to not only make me proud of myself but make others proud I have to stay true to myself. Yes, the song is older but I absolutely love it because it has taught me that I must stay true to myself in order to succeed and become who I need and want to become. This song has also taught me that I can be myself better than anyone and I can't play a "part" of anyone in order to become what I want.

All About Me!

I'm a very sensitive person when it comes to topics I care about. I am a type one diabetic. I am undeceive on what I want to be in the future. I either want to become a paramedic or nurse. I don't like when people make jokes about diabetes, like McDiabetes and things like that. I don't like when people don't believe me and I really don't like when people question me. I am not in the best health conditions but I try not to let that stop me from anything even though it does get in the way sometimes.
