and a half of my life to becoming a better player in hopes of playing at a prestigious college. I didn't start playing tennis in hopes of playing in college or even being good; I just wanted a gym credit. After a disappointing 7th grade basketball season, I was ready to try something new. That was a little over three years ago. Now I’m trying to decide which schools I like the most and can play tennis for. I began playing tennis in the 8th grade. I'd play multiple sports my entire life until…
read these words, there is only one thing that comes to my mind, and that is, the magical season of winter. I believe winter is a better season than summer. A survey on debate.org showed that 58% of people chose winter over summer. Snow angels, snowball fights, snowmobiling, ice skating, creating snowmen, sledding, and snowboarding are all activities that are done in the winter. You might say, “In the summer there are more activities, you can go water skiing, swimming and boating.” When it’s…
and shredding. Their long tread life makes them a good choice. Since not everyone travels on rough terrain each day, another tire option is the all season tire.…
Despite all of his achievements, Vivaldi is best known for four concertos collectively known as The Four Seasons (Le Quattro Stagiorni). Paul Everett says the following: “For many people, the very name ‘Vivaldi’ is synonymous with The Four Seasons, to the exclusion of all else.” (Everett, xi). Being perhaps the most popular and frequently performed works of Vivaldi, The Four Seasons are a highlight in the history of program music. (Everett, xi) This work, taken from Op. 8, a collection of…
because the two don’t even run during the same season. When the WNBA was in the beginning stages of the league the NBA officials felt their WNBA counterpart was unable to share the arena with the team since it would put two basketball teams in one arena (Leslie). Unfortunately this argument seems to be a failure since many NBA teams have shared their arenas with NHL teams whose season runs at the same time as the NBA. These NBA teams also run their seasons with other events sych as…
final episode of “Power” Season 3. However, fans are now wondering how long their favorite protagonist will stay in prison in the coming “Power” Season 4. According to CarterMatt, fans don’t want to see Ghost inside the prison for so long in “Power” Season 4. Being the show’s lead star, there’s a big possibility that its story would be at risk as if he stays in the four corners of his cell. On the contrary, it is not possible that Ghost is will be out quickly in “Power” Season 4. The intense…
remember, running track, swimming, and most importantly playing football all four years of my high school career. I’ve developed an enormous passion for the sport of football and have worked endless summers and academic years for my senior year season. Unfortunately, that season ended quickly. During a summer practice, prior to one week before my senior year of high school, I was running a play with my teammates as one of them ran into my knee and managed to knock me onto the ground feeling…
have your best interests at heart. My dad is a teacher, so he has all his summers off from work. This means that I always have someone to take me to the beach, the movies, or maybe just relax at home. Summers are my favorite time of year because my dad always has something special planned. Last summer, we took a three day trip to Seattle. We saw the space needle, pikes place market, and other Seattle attractions. I had a great time and it was one of my favorite trips. Other summers, we take…
Playing football, was one of the best decisions i've ever made. I started football it was in the fourth grade and still have the same dream i’ve had since then (to be in the NFL). The one thing i’ve learned in football was, hard work and a lot of commitment. I say this because first of all you need to spend a lot of your time into this sport throughout the whole year. As the years go by I realized that football is a lot of hard work if you want to be the best, especially in my high school…
me on at races, and becoming some of my best friends. I looked up to them as a shining example and knew I wanted to carry on the team captain tradition as a dedicated, inspirational, and caring team captain. The opportunity for me to be a team captain came last summer when my cross country coach, Coach Corry, asked me to be a captain as a leader, runner, and example of daily dedication. I enjoyed planning activities for the cross country girls…
