...and Fitness Paper My fitness goal is for me to run a mile in under six minutes in the four week range I had. I chose this goal because this would benefit me for my health and sports wise. the motivation that made me pick this particular goal is that i needed to get my encurance/cardio up in general. i usually go to the gym and do weights but never cardio or the tredmill. This goal would even benefit me in baseball for numerous reasons. I wouldnt get tired easy with any exercises i do in anything. i would even think this goal could get me stronger in the legs too. To attain this goal i set myself some steps to achieve this goal. I put myself on a god leg workout plan. Working out my legs would get me more faster than i am now. Another routine i did was run with some of the track team. The track team had some helpful routines and tips for running the mile. Spme of the runners timed me on the miles i ran each week. I would get faster because i also ran sprints that got my cardio up. After i usually ran the tredmil at home in the evening. I kept track of my routines on a log that was given to me prior to the goal i set. To me this goal wasnt very difficult for me as i worked through the steps because i set myself at a good pace for everything. The relevant information i searched for my goal was alright. It mainly told me what to eat or some workout routines. I seartched on how to get faster mile times on google. It gave me some websites but mainly just eating the right...

...my sophmore year. I learned alot from the failure. I was coming off of my first year of high school and high school baseball. I played summer baseball but I didn’t get much playing time. Around that time my confidence level regarding my skills and ability were pretty low. I wasnt always the first choice for any of the postitions. That gave me motivation to work harder. I would finish my school worl, stay on top of my studies so I could put most of my energy into baseball. Every practice I would do more, work harder, and just go that extra mile where most of my teamates didnt go. I worked hard everyday in preparation for the tryouts, that were coming up in the following spring. During the winter we would have winter workouts almost everyday. If you play baseball for North Medford you have to be committed...

...when i wasnt reading my novels, u 'd often catch me just day dreaming about ruggedly handsome guys and flowers and chocolates and exotic gifts. No wonder, that when i became a teenager, i had very high expectations about love and romance that were a little impossible to be fulfilled. Needless to say that those dreams were never fulfilled as a teenager but then that didnt stop me from dreaming anyway. I remembeer the first time i actually had a real crush on a guy. I was fifteen then. It was the holidays and schools were on break. There was this guy who was a neighbour and had been for a couple of years. The details of how it all began are a little blurry now but all i remember is that i suddenly had this huge crush on him and whenever i saw him, i felt butterflies in my tummy. He was very much older than me and was in a higher institution. The crush lasted for the whole holiday season and then like all crushhes, it just died down. After that came another guy, although this time, i was seventeen and out of secondary school. As at that time, i considered myself more matured.(now that i think aboutit, i wasnt that matured at all) Anyway, this new guy, Terry was an ideal guy- young, handsome, intelligent, and a perfect gentleman. I thot he was the perfect guy for me. But then, there was some drama around him and when i say drama you should know it involves anothr girl. There was this older girl, May who was head over heels in love with him this was a problem for me because...

...take the call, but there was no call coming in. The problem resurfaced again. I immediately tried turning off the traction control to see if I could hear the four chimes that would remind the driver that the traction control system is off, but no chimes, no radio, no onstar, no audio period. The following day I drove right into Chevy and told them that this car is staying here until this issue is resolved and fixed and since my warranty had exprired, they agreed that although the warranty is expired, the car is still covered because of this issue being dealth with when the BCM was replaced under warranty. They initially thought that possibly the BCM was bad and was going to replace it again, yet another service tech said that it probably wasnt the problem because all the audio no matter what feature, was distorting and shorting out, it had to be something totally different then the BCM. Well the car...

...The Moor was the “sidekick” of Robin Hood. He stayed by his side and sworn to protect Robin and save his life at least once. He is a important character in the legend of Robin Hood.

...When i first saw the cover of the anime one piece i thought to myself that well, the art isn't that fantastic and the storyline dosent seem all that interesting since i wasnt much into the pirate theme. The search for one piece, i thought it was going to be all indiana jones atmosphere. But when i actually read the manga boy i realized i was extremely wrong. Truth be told the first episode did not interest me much, what kept me going was this new concept of devil fruit power that i had not seen in any other anime, well ofcourse i wouldnt..that would be a copyright infringement i guess.

...It was dark and silence filled the streets. I took a sip of the whiskey from my flask and thought of smoking a cigarette but the enemies were nearby it was risky but my addiction forced me to smoke. I took one out from my pack and lighted it. Few moments later someone shooted from the bell tower which was fifty meters ahead. I took cover and took my rifle and loaded the bullets into it. I used my night vision goggles and shot that man with my sniper. It has been 8 years since i joined the Intelligence unit of the Army and i have had no benefit all i do is kill people, stay away from my loved ones and what do i get in return the same pay cheque every month and a medal for my service. But i have had enough this is my last operation before i retire and go back to my family in Karachi. I went to the bell tower in search of ammo and to kill any more foes who were in the area. As soon as i reached the top of the bell tower i heard shots and one of the bullets hit me in my right arm i wasn't able to pick my rifle. I took out my revolver and started shooting. But this wasnt good enough to kill him. On his next shot i threw my rifle and cap off the bell tower which made i look like i was dead. A minute later i used my revolver and shot him in the back and his body fell off the roof. I went downstairs to go and see my troop but i was curious to see the person who i had killed. After the army split it could have been anyone from my troops too. I went to him only to see my best friend...

...The hate side of my relationship with writing stems from school. This is because most of the writing assessments dont allow me to have creative freedom. 9 times out of 10 we have to write about something like why we love school (we don't) or sometime you had to do something specific that you can't remember ever doing. And then when you get to write something that has a plot instead of a 5 paragraph essay about why school shouldn't be start earlier, you have to write from a prompt that sounds like something you would find in a children's story contest. I understand why we are given prompts, i just wish we could have more creativity with them instead of writing with a specific prompt. That is why i partly hate writing. The love side of my...
