Kennady Peters and I have been best friends ever since the age of two when we were in the same pre-school class. During our sophomore year of high school, we were inseparable. There were times where Kennady would stays for days at a time at my house. We would play video games, watch movies, or just talk and hang out.
Eventually, those tiny activities got boring. On the night of February 13th, we decided to go to Tequila’s for dinner. We had a lot of fun, but we were not ready to go home just yet. We needed something more adventurous and mischievous to do. We decided to go to Walmart to buy a fish. Once we got to Walmart, we looked at all of the fish, but ended up leaving because we realized that we couldn’t really “play” with a fish. In the

We would all go inside, but Devin would go find a worker and buy the hamster, while Kennady and I pretended to look at dog toys. Since he was 18 and the man working couldn’t care less about his job or anything happening, he gave Devin the hamster without even looking at his ID. We gave Devin the money to buy it and we finally got our own hamster! After saying many thank-yous to Devin for coming to help us, we decided to take our little “baby” home. Keep in mind that my parents gave me no permission and knew absolutely nothing about us buying any pet at …show more content…
We chose to name him Farley after the famous comedian, Chris Farley. We named him this because he was both overweight and funny, just like Chris Farley was. Kennady and I had the time of our lives whenever we picked out accessories and toys for him to play with. We bought him a little car that he could play in, although he was too fat to even fit inside of it. We even made a license plate for the car that said ‘FATASS2’. We watched him play with his toys for hours on end and enjoyed shoving the hamster down the sleeves of our shirts the most. It was so ticklish and funny whenever he would crawl up and down our arms. Right before bed, I remember just watching him play in his tiny hamster wheel and thinking about how lucky I was that my mom let me keep
Your Inner Fish is a book that explains evolutionary concepts from multiple different scientific viewpoints. It explains how fossils help us to understand where we started from, and how we evolved. It also explains how DNA can help us track where we came from and trace our ancestry.

Lobstering is in my blood. It is what supports my family and most of my town. I have been doing it my whole life i’ve had a lobster license since i was 8 years old which is as young as you can get one. I love summer just for lobstering season plus I like the money outcome. I hate school starting the most because it tires me out because I play football everyday except sundays and some saturdays so i have to wake up early and haul on my days off from school.
It all started on crisp morning, the day my parents told us that we were getting a dog. We asked “What kind of dog we were getting?” They said “The dog was going to be a Golden Retriever”. Everyone was excited about the dog. Then we all had to “puppy proof” our house just in case she would get into anything. We had to make sure that we had all the necessities for the dog.
"eeeee!I can't wait to get my guinea pig!" July 6 2016, It was the day before my birthday and I really wanted a guinea pig. I knew so much about them and couldn't wait to get one for my birthday. On my birthday, I Revived 100 dollars in gift cards to Pet Co and Pet Smart. First I decided to go to Pet Smart I bought a cage for 49 dollars and food. They didn't have the guinea pig I wanted there so we went to Pet Co, when we got there I also bought bedding, hay and a pink igloo.
While roaming around a corner store with my grandmother, I saw some old fishing rods in the back corner of the store. After looking at them for a few minutes, one rod seemed to stand out more than the others. The price tag on it, was a bit of deal breaker though. On a student budget, three hundred dollars seemed a bit out of my price range. The more I thought about it, the more it didn't seem like the smartest purchase to make.
Ever since I was a kid I have enjoyed fishing. Fishing relaxes my mind and allows me to get away from the stress of the real world. From the cool breeze around the lake to the fishes nibbling away at the bait, it’s all just very relaxing. There was one day where I caught more fish than I had ever caught before. The entire day had been going my way. My boss called me and gave me the day off and that alone is a good way to start your day. After getting the day off I was able to get a few extra hours of sleep. Being able to sleep in allowed me to get the some rest that I had not been able to get for a few weeks. After getting my well-deserved rest I decided to go to the pet store to get some fish bait. Fishing was not my original plan for that day but since I was able to get the day off and I didn’t have any other plans I was able to plan to do one of my favorite things.

Getting ready for the big day, it was a cool summer morning, the water was like glass, mist on the water. My dad, me, and my friend launched the boat in the water ready for the state Bass Fishing Tournament, we had never been so pumped in our lives. Three!!! Yelled the director, we take off to our first spot of the morning, a spot we had done good in practice the day before. The first spot was a bust but we bounce back and get to our second spot. I throw my chartreuse spinnerbait next to some reeds in the water and next thing i know i'm hooked up!!! I yell “Matt get the net” He scoops the fish into the net and that's our first keeper of the day. Next cast I hook up with another Largemouth bass that weighed about 2lbs. I continue on the trolley
I have many whales, yet I struggle with one Moby Dick and that would happen to be holding on to the past. While I was watching Moby Dick I noticed a little of myself in Captain Ahab. While analyzing the passion he has to get his revenge on Moby Dick because of the past is somewhat of the way I am with the past situations in my life. For example, holding onto the past was something I found myself doing when a future situation would occur in addition to not being able to leave what has happened in the past to move forward in the future. Lately I’ve been consequently stuck in the past that I miss out on so many opportunities that could be beneficial to me. For instance Captain Ahab, he is was so focused on what happened to him in the past that he doesn’t realize that his future will be transient trying to get revenge on something that happened to him
We were all pumping our sweaty legs on this very hot day in Martha’s Vineyard. We were staying Massachusetts and went out to the island for the day. My family and I all rented bikes so we could ride around the island and enjoy the ocean view, and the pleasant breeze all over our bodies. Even though we had that breeze the temperature was still as hot as the blazes of hell.

Before elementary school and into preschool, I had two close friends named Reilly and Sidot that lived in the same apartment complex as me. I remember one time I made a sign for my door permitting only the two of them, and my cat, because I was mad at my mom for some reason or another. The three of us played together often, though I don’t remember exactly what we did. I remember a time when Reilly got sick and I made some excuse of returning a forgotten toy to go see her. She had a sore throat so I suggested to her parents that they give her popsicles because that’s what my mom gave me when I had a sore throat. My mom later found me at their house laughing and eating a snack when she went looking for me after realizing I had been gone way too long to just be returning a toy.
