Popsicles: the best refuge from the summer heat on a stick. The crisp, cold air flowing to your mouth, accented with just the right tang of orchard-fresh fruit, like frozen fruit coming out of a commercial cooler. I love popsicles—actually, I loved popsicles, until I actually ate one. It's a bright and sunny day—the same weather they had in Pearl Harbor. As I stab open the plastic packaging with the stick inside, melted popsicle starts to roll off the stick and onto my hand. Instead of greeted by a whiff of morning air, I'm blasted by air from a mini fridge on the poles. My mouth is caught totally off guard. As the cold ice missile hits my tongue, all of my senses are numbed—no taste introduces itself to my taste buds because my taste buds …show more content…
(After you finish eating only ice for a week, try watermelon for a change.) You probably won’t even need to drink water; you’d get it all from the watermelon. But, that being said, would you consider the individual substances in watermelons food? Probably not. (Project after you finish the watermelon diet: Eat only lycopene for a week! It’s even worse than seeded watermelons.) So, how is watermelon food if the individual substances that compose it are not? I have no idea. Perhaps the combination of a bunch of chemicals makes a food food. Then, if I just put all of the substances in a watermelon in a container, would that be a watermelon? No, because the chemicals themselves are separated; they aren’t one whole piece. Maybe if I mixed all of the molecules into one whole pill-like-thing, would that be a watermelon? No, because it’s not in the same arrangement as a watermelon. It’s like if you put a grand piano into a wood chipper and glued all of the pieces together in a pile: no, it’s not a piano, because it doesn’t work like a piano at all. A bunch of wood and metal wire glued in a random arrangement is not a piano, even though they’re made of the same parts. Final idea: Let’s make a watermelon among the substances that we just separated! This is definitely a watermelon now, but why would anyone go through the effort of deconstructing a watermelon in order to reconstruct …show more content…
The answer is that, like watermelon, I am not myself. I am not the same person as I was when "I" wrote the word "word". I've lost cells; I've gained cells. I've lost memories, I've written new ones. I'm dying a slow death; I'm living an insignificant life. Just like the food, no one will care about the bruised apple at the bottom of the basket. No one will care about where the skipping rocks are on the riverbed. No one will care about this essay, kicked into the literary gaols, chained to the bars, begging for someone to read it. You'll certainly forget about this essay in thirty years. I'll probably forget about this in about a hundred days. I've already forgotten about what I've eaten for dinner last
As you may know, there's nothing better than sitting in a hot tub, after a hard day's work or a long day of driving the kids from one place to the next, grabbing dinner on the run and ending it near complete exhaustion No, there is nothing that can get you physically and mentally relaxed like a long soak in a hot tub, that's for sure. So what is it about sitting a hot tub that helps take all of the worries of the day and makes them disappear? Seriously, it sounds almost magical, doesn't it? Is it the steam from the hot water that grabs hold of the tension in your body and then floats it all away that does it?

Other reality-TV families have their California dream houses and Jersey McMansions. But the hottest stars of the moment live in a cramped white clapboard house in rural McIntyre, Ga., where the Christmas lights stay up year-round and the train tracks run alongside the backyard. Inside, it’s worn but homey. And other than her dad’s shrine to Dale Earnhardt, the only nod to decor is Alana Thompson’s impressive wall of pageant trophies and tiaras. There, the 7-year-old giddily spins in circles while posing for a PEOPLE photographer.
Imagine for a moment yourself waking up in the morning, looking down and seeing that you are in somebody else's body. Your thoughts are still the same, all of your emotions, desires, sentiments are still the same, but on the outside, in the mirror, you are not yourself. The world no longer remembers the old you. It only knows what you've become. Were you ever somebody else?

In Suncrest Elementary School, the school that I attend to, every year they would pick a fifth grader who has the best art picture and would be the cover of the year. I was excited to become a fifth grader because I want to be on the cover of the yearbook. It was until the beginning of April was when Mrs. Barnes was announcing that one student would have their art picture in the cover of the yearbook. I was so excited that one of my classmates including me would be chosen to cover of the yearbook and including in the newspaper. We all started working on our picture, but we were told that we had to include the words Suncrest Elementary School and making sure that we are spelling it correctly.

Persuasive Writing- Dairy, Dairy Quite Contrary Picture the idyllic scene, you know the one I mean: grinning cows grazing on a grassy expanse of land, prancing about and mooing to their heart 's content. What about the scene in which a mother sets down two cold, healthy glasses of milk for her children to drink and they proceed to consume the delicious refreshment in mere seconds, leaving nothing but an adorable, frothy moustache above their top lip. Unbeknownst to this mother, and the 93% of Great Britain who drink cow’s milk, she has just handed her children a glass teeming with hormones, steroids, pesticides, and antibiotics. The dairy industry has spent copious amounts of money over many decades supporting the idea that milk is essential
