Warm beaches and plenty of fun. Last summer on Memorial weekend my friends and I packed up and took a trip to Miami Beach, Florida.

Why did you choose to apply to UCF? When my family moved to South Florida in March, 2001, my parents thought of my education first. They quickly invested in pre-paid college scholarships, and took interest in which schools I would be attending. At the beginning of high school, my parents and I discussed my college options.

Bob Mrs. Allen Honors English III September 5th, 2012 Daring to Dream Most all citizens of the United States of America believe that they can achieve the American Dream because of the opportunities afforded to us by our freedom if we work aggressively each day towards the goal. While the dream itself may be different for each individual, it is the idea of achieving the dream that has made the American people grow and prosper for over two-hundred years. The illustration of the American Dream given to us by Neil Armstrong exhibits the life achievements that can be obtained when you make the most of opportunities put before you through hard work and efforts. Neil Armstrong’s life embodies the very essence of the American dream through his life achievements. Obviously, Neil A. Armstrong was the first person to traverse across the rocky soil of the moon.

Duncan Ugland Sophomore English, period 2 Mrs. Richmond 23 January 2013 A Traveler’s Tale My family and I landed across the ocean to explore new and amazing wonders. Our destination was a small village on a prominent mountain peak approximately two hours away from where we had touched down. It was where my grandfather grew up when he was a young child until he moved to America with my grandmother (also from Italy). They were blessed with a child who would become my mom. She had visited the village a few times in the past, and on this trip, she had one of her cousins who still lived there take us to our destination—Poggio Umbricchio, Italy.
