This i believe.
I believe that you should never give up even in bad situations. I was in the ultimate Frisbee playoff a cold and clear day with a smell of dead leaves in the air. We started the first game off and won after the game with sharp intakes of icy air we knew it would be a long day. We proceeded to the next game with high hopes. We started the second game colder than we were before. We lined up and got ready for the throw. The throw was in the air and soaring across the field like a bird. We then proceeded to win the game rather easily. We seemed to breeze through the next few games. Then we got to the game before the championship and we were getting tired. We still had won every single game till then and it felt as though that one game was going to foreshadow the next game. We won but it was closer than it had been before and we got a little nervous. Then we got to the last game, and we're very upset to find out that the other team had just had a one hour break. My whole team was really mad because we had just played four games in a row. But even with the odds stacked against us we did not give up. The team put up a very good last effort and we're able to not get blown out of the water. I saw this as a reason to keep working harder all because we lost. So I think that this experience was a good lesson to show that I had to keep working to get what I want to get next season. To win the championship so I will work extra hard to achieve this next year. Due to that last game I learned that I can't give up ever.

Kentucky school shooting
By:Noah briggs Sadly school shootings seem to keep popping up and now are viewed as a more common thing. Recently a school shooting in Kentucky resulted in 2 dead and 17 injured which results in the first fatal school shooting of 2018. This does not bode well for 2018 considering there have been 283 school shootings since 2013. This will sadly be the first of hopefully a few school shootings at schools this year. But the best thing that you and I can so to try to stop such a horrendous act is to try and be as nice as possible to everyone we meet. I realize the problem might be a home issue and that makes me feel as though the counselors need to make sure that everyone is stable while going to school. Sadly this can happen anywhere even in the best of places It can happen to my school or someone else's. So I feel as though everyone should care about this and try to do as much as possible to try and prevent this from happening. I feel as though this is a important issue because it can happen to anyone including myself or someone I know so the fact that I can try and do something makes me feel better for me and everyone around me. |
