Rowan Blanchard: Girl Meets World

Being the adventurous and outgoing person I am, I aspire to be daring. Anything that has an element of danger catches my eye. I cartwheel down the stairs; I vigorously dive into the formidable waves at Jones Beach; I am the only girl on the wrestling team.

Most people believed the attack put an end my surfing career. Determined to prove them wrong, I returned to the water one month after the attack, once again beating all odds. It was challenging to change what I was so used to, but I adjusted and started competing again. Within two years of being back in the ocean, I won my first national title. From 2003-2006 I was doing much more than just surfing, I appeared on several popular TV shows and also won multiple incredible awards. I became a source of inspiration to millions through my acts of faith, hope, and determination.

In “Mean Girls” by Tina Fey, there are a few characters that stand out because of how interesting they are. One that stands out the most to me is Karen Smith. In the course of the movie, she deals with her friends bringing a new girl into the group and that girl ends up turning into the “Queen” throughout the movie. Karen has to go through with her friends getting into verbal and physical wars. The writer also reveals that Karen is not the smart one of the group. For example, she tries to catch a football with her chest and it just ends up bouncing off. She appears to be dull-minded and clueless. Karen Smith shows that throughout the story she is a static character because she never changes throughout the movie.

When you sit down to write an I Believe Essay, the first questions you have to ask yourself is, “What do I believe in?” It’s one of the hardest questions to answer. I for instance believe in patience, the power of seeing the big picture, and people’s power to help you become a better person. After you have figured out what you believe in, you then have to pick one of these beliefs to write about. My problem is that I couldn’t write about just one of these things. I wanted to write about all of them. I then realized what all of these beliefs have in common, a single person. I met a truly amazing person about two months ago. She’s taught me so much about life and myself. Once I saw that it became clear that the only thing I could ever truly write my essay on was her. Therefore I believe in the amazing girl who is Hannah Bourque.

Many people say that you must have plenty in common with someone in order to be their best friend. However, in the novel Finnie Walsh by Steven Galloway, this is not the case. Finnie and Paul have a few things in common, such as their passion for hockey, but they were (for the most part) complete opposites. Paul's family has a struggle with money throughout the duration of the novel, while Finnie's family is quite wealthy. After Mr.Woodward's accident, Finnie is struggling to escape the guilt; meanwhile, Paul is able to let it go. Finnie is a risk taker along with being very outgoing; but on the contrary, Paul is very timid and takes everything in stride. Paul and Finnie have few things in common;

Arnetta seems like the leader of the pack; however, she is the weakest because she has to be mean and call troop 909 names just to make herself feel better. For example on (page 281 paragraph 4)they referred to the troop 909 girls “wet chihuahuas.” She does it to make herself seem cooler but really that makes her look bad. On (page 283 paragraph 2) she states,”she’d heard one of the girls from troop 909 call Daphne a n-i-g-g-e-r.” When Arnetta tries to point out witch girl called Daphne a “n-i-g-g-e-r” cited on page 297 paragraphs 2 and 3) she pointed to a girl who could talk but never did, then she changed it to someone else(cited in page 297 paragraph 4) the girl steps forward to show her uniform and says,”See, I’m a Brownie.” the narrator

A great poet makes the reader feel connected and inside the poem. Shakespeare, Frost, and Angelou all encompass the great qualities of a wonderful writer, because readers are taken on a trip. Much like the Shakespeare, Natasha Trethewey, used “experience” to write poems that take readers on an adventure through the lives of 1912 New Orleans prostitutes. She gives these women identities. These normally shunned women were given families, backstories, and most importantly, emotions. She took what people consider the scum of society and turned them into normal women, who have doubts and insecurities. She manages to make women these women human. In this specific collection of poems, the focus is on Ophelia, a young woman who has to deal with a father

It all started with a normal teenage-girl named “Kelsey”, Kelsey Hayes. Sadly, her parents passed away in a car accident. She then moved in with her foster parents Sarah and Mike Neilson. She has been described as gorgeous numerous times with her pale skin, dark brown eyes, and golden-brown hair in loose waves and usually keeps her hair in a braid with ribbons, something which reminds her of her mother.

Madelyn Fynn, or Maddie, is the main character in the story When. Maddie unintentionally initiates conflict with a quality that she was born with and cannot change. Maddie can be characterized as a misinterpreted murderer, empathetic, and foremost, abnormal. Maddie is most definitely abnormal because she possesses an unusual trait, which is seeing the death date of every person she can see. This is introduced at the beginning of the story when Maddie says, “I’m not exactly sure when I first started seeing the numbers.” It is also asserted in the story when Maddie says, “How come I can see the exact date someone will die, but nothing about how, where, or even why?” Using this gift, her and her mother bring paying customers into their home and Maddie tells them the death date of whomever they request. They do this because Maddie’s father, a former cop, had been killed in a work related accident and later with the loss of her mother’s part time job, and unceasing alcoholism, they needed extra cash to get by.
