and recited the famous speech from Miracle that would get us excited and put a smile on our faces. The game started and they played music to get the energy of a dead hockey rink going. The first two periods seemed to last forever as if each drive took an hour due to how big the sheet of ice was. It was an Olympic size ice rink that made other rinks look and feel pathetic. Despite a valiant effort we lost 4 to 1.
First aid training is a necessity. Why? It is for the fact that people always get subjected to freak accidents. They do happen in the most unexpected time and place. Being trained in administering first aid is indeed beneficial because there is a great chance for you to save lives at any given time.
We still had time for fun such as sleigh rides down the road in front of our house, skiing in one of the fields that had a steep slope (these skis were hand made by Dads cousin Augie (August Johnson) or Ice skating on one of the three fishing pons we had. Our skates were the kind that clamped onto your shoes. No fancy shoe skates like you have now. As we skated the clamps would loosen and you would have to stop and tighten them. There was also a strap that went around your ankle that kept them from falling completely off.
Boardman makes us realise the danger in the ‘Everest’ and places like that however we see all the fun side of the trip Hyde made, even when she broke the rule of ‘stay in the boat’. Item 3 is much more formal than item 1 using masses more of sophisticated words and more emotional
Two years ago when I was 15, I suffered a spinal cord injury. I was at the top of my game,top of my class and top runner on the ski team.I do not want to sound too full of myself when I say I was "overwhelmed" with responses from the hottest guys but there he was H***** I never really had a boyfriend til then.We seem so perfect for each other I thought he was my soul mate. The night before I broke my back he said he loved me. So much for his being in love. Once I had licked my wounds and felt ready to try this again so i got back out there with what I thought were my true friends.
Previously I’d only been to this part of the area in a car, so now being able to ride the streets was truly an event I’ll always remember. We rode to the top of Great Oaks to Bright Water, where at sixteen years old, I witnessed one of the largest hills I’ve ever seen. Standing directly at the bottom, I looked up and felt the menacing road was mocking me. I turned to Joey and saw the same look in his face: wanting to conquer the slope. We walked up the hill carrying our boards, wanting to savor the thrill of riding down.
the moment when the end of the year come you feel excited that it finally came. when you take a different direction, when you passed all of the bumpy roads and it smooth sailing from here on. Then, when you feel relief knowing that something better is waiting for you at the end. Then you reach it and cherish it forever more. There's nothing to it simply just enjoying it letting it flow through.
[pic] Being in a forest with no showers, no toilets, no beds and climbing up mountains every day was where all the year nine’s had their adventure. Before I went to Outward Bound I thought that I wasn’t going to like it as I didn’t know what to expect because many people had told me their experiences they had on Outward Bound. Now that I’ve been, I would love to go back there to see if I can do the exact same activities, but only do them better! The nine days that we were away from our parents, there were a few times I wished I were at home spending time with my family. My group members and I somehow survived the horrible cold weather, and sleeping on a hard rocky surface, that I thought was extremely uncomfortable.
I honestly loved it and I’m not outside person but it was amazing trip. the people that went with me was Chief Erin, Chief Tricia, Chief Tim, Chief Kristin, Cherish, Kate, Mallory, Makayla, Ally, Faith, Heaven, Katlyne, Chantell, and Alex. First, One of our canoes tipped so we had to lift it up. And then we put the canoes on the rocks. So after we put it on the rock’s we had to put all the stuff back in our canoe and we got lucky because a little bit of are stuff got wet that was all.
I nearly land a trick I've been trying for a while now. After a few seconds of awe I try again eagerly. I miss the pedal and rip open my shin. My heart races and I can't help but to smile. I try again, and again, and again, until I land it and ride away smoothly.
