The Big Race Childhood is a time of adventure and exploring. For me, I took adventure and exploring to a whole new level. When I was only eight years old, I entered a ski race on the 2002 Olympic course while on vacation in Park City, Utah. Every year during Christmas break, my family and I take a trip out west to go skiing. That year was particularly special because it was going to be our first trip to Utah. Two weeks before for our trip, my dad was doing some research about all the events that

I believe in. Sadly, I do not do that as much. I am a lady who knows how to figure out problems in the world beside mine and that’s ironic. It has been a roller coaster year and I hope you will forgive me for being too indecisive. I opened myself up to love.

My Father Affects Me I am the only child in my family. I am the apple of my parents' eye. My mother gives me all the things I want. However, my father looks solemn. He never talks too much to me. Maybe he is busy all the time, and maybe he does not like to express his feelings. For this reason, I can remember all the things that happened between my father and me. A hero, he affects my whole life. When I was seven years old, I was in primary school. I remembered clearly our teacher told us that

One may never expect to be alone and to be left by the one person they can’t live without. “On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before (59)” this one quote shows that one day you have to have acceptance, acceptance that the someone or something has to and will eventually leave.
