The doors to my imaginations are now opening. Bright lights are flashing the path.
No one.
Nothing.
Could this be real or just a dream?
Lifted by the power of the past, taking me to unknown places.
The future awaits.
While my body is resting: but my soul traveling towards the top.

Dancing

I open the doors of a greeting world, a world where determination and passion is all there is.
Sweat dripping down our bodies only symbolizes our hard and tiring effort.
Effort which will be rewarded by the satisfaction of knowing you have reached the top.
Getting there was everything but easy, hours and hours of pure dedication. All of that is slowly fading once you hear the music. Letting it take control over your soul. Dancing you heart out, allowing your feet to communicate with the floor, allowing you arms to caress the air. My body is in complete peace, all I want is for time to stop and be able to dance. Forever.

Essay for Speak

Adolescence: a stage in every person's life, a stage in which making mistakes and learning from them is just a step to getting closer to maturity. A step to getting closer to knowing the real world that is awaiting you. However what happens when a foolish mistake is made and before you know it you are put in a situation in which now your sanity is put into line? The book "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson is such an emotional and touching story; narrating the days of a girl whose life was torn due to a horrible action but still explaining the roots to why it is important to think over what you do very carefully, otherwise the consequences could take the course of your life for the worst.

Now a days when a parent thinks about his/her child growing up what worries them the most is the teenage hood. It is not to blame, because this is the age in which future adults will be able to make mistakes but still over come them and get a lesson from such. When I was done reading the book the only thing that I was sure of was that there was nothing wrong by the fact that she went to the party. However the stupid error that she did was start drinking, beer after another. If she would of thought about the consequences before doing this she could have prevented herself all that misery that she experienced in her freshman year.

Even though Melinda had made a horrible mistake, many talented and achieved people have fallen under this trap as well. People such as Lindsay Lohan a very talented and gifted girl but whose actions made her talent fade, giving an image of irresponsibility to the public eye. It is very sad to see this because it is a fact that she could have gone so far and obtained so many things but all of this is now just a dream. However if she puts her act together and embraces this error, putting it behind her she will be able to take control of her life once again.

Being free and in control may seem the perfect thing for everyone, and it is. However by having all this freedom that is now given to you what makes all of this ideal is to be able to be in control in almost every circumstance. To have this you must always, think about the action and the outcomes of your deeds otherwise, like Melinda your world may turn upside down.

As the sun is rising up to the majestic sky, I see the birds flying towards the endless horizon. A feeling of happiness is spreading through my veins could this be real or is it just a dream? Finally for the first time in five years Belinda Lombardi would finally reunite with her family; after being sent to a prestigious boarding school in England at the age of 13.

While laying in their warm and soft beds, Belinda and her best friend Carla; staring at their breath taking panorama, were discussing the upcoming event that would change the life of loving Belinda.
"Oh Belinda, I feel so happy for you!" Carla said with such an exciting high pitched voice.
" I have been counting the days, hours, and minutes now I feel as if my whole body has been electrified by a lighting bolt! The anxiety is killing me! I can’t believe that in exactly 2 hours and 30 minutes I will at last reunite with my loving parents."
"Well, what are you waiting for let's go! You need to get ready!!"
Immediately Belinda and Carla jumped up from their beds and rushed over to Belinda's glamorous vanity.

"Too bad that in 2 hours and 30 minutes there will also be an unpleasant surprise waiting for you Belinda." Silvana thought while jealously watching Carla comb Belinda's ultra-long locks. The thing about Silvana is that ever since she was 13 years old and Belinda had arrived to the boarding school she magically seemed to enchant everyone with her beauty and sparkly personality. She hated her, hated her long river of golden hair, and her gorgeous amber eyes that stroked through any soul.


Though it seemed as if Belinda lived a perfect happy life, deep down there was still a hole in her heart that just could not heal . Ever since her parents had sent to her to England to supposedly "Expand her education" she felt as if they no longer loved her, no longer desired her company , and no longer wanted her in their lives. As if they were sick of her, irritated of her presence, or annoyed just at her sight. This destroyed her, but now that she knew that they wanted to see her again overfilled her with joy!

Patriotism

As the world comes to a point in which freedom of speech and freedom in general is very limited, I feel very grateful to live in a country in which you are able to be free. I feel very grateful for all the work and effort patriots have put in to defending the lives of many Americans, bettering their lifestyles and encouraging them to be anything they want to. Life as we know it today would not exist if it weren't for these heroes; it wouldn't even be the shadow of what we experience in our every day lives.

Creative Story

As the train was approaching and the cold harsh wind began to blow, Isabella was suddenly attacked by a rush of excitement and joy spreading all over her body. Just the thought of her reuniting with her loving twin sister Victoria after being separated at the age of seven. Due to a horrible fire that killed her whole family miraculously excluding her and her sister was still very shocking. How the fire started, and who had saved the two toddlers was still, a mystery.

Now after nine years of absence in each other's lives, Isabella was dying to get to know Victoria. Thanks to the help of her Aunt Camilla who had taken care of Victoria for the past nine years, had finally tracked her down.
"If only Aunt Camilla had found me as quick as she found Victoria, I know my life and my sister's would have been much, much different", Isabella began to think.
These thoughts were soon vanished after she saw Aunt Camilla and Victoria walking towards her.

As soon as the two sisters saw each other, it was as if somebody had pressed a pause button. All they did was stare at each, it seemed as if they were both staring at a mirror, their similarities were impressive. Long thick brown hair, high cheek bones, beautiful hazel eyes with that intriguing look, were one of the many characteristics these twins shared.
"Well, is that all you two are going to do, stare at each other?", Aunt Camilla asked.
The two sisters hugged immediately unable to speak, unable to cry, their emotions took over.

It appeared as if the years had done nothing to their bond, however there was something about Victoria now, that didn't seem right. Victoria had a secret. Luckily, Aunt Camilla opened the door releasing all the tension. Asking for Victoria to come out of the room and help her unpack.
"Oh, Aunt Camilla I would be more than happy to help." Isabella said
"No!" Camilla declared. She bit her tongue. " I mean no thank you, I think Angela could use your help though." Camilla said.
Isabella was now very confused seeing her Aunt respond to her that way was unreasonable, she couldn't believe what had just happened. But as told she went to see what Angela the 70 year old woman who had raised Isabella, needed. She started to help Angela prepare dinner. As soon as Victoria and Camilla walked out of the room and towards them, she slowly began to notice Victoria's irritated eyes.
"Were you crying?!" Isabella asked very concern.
"No, no, I'm just, she began to slowly look at Camilla who gave her a piercing look.
"So happy to have you in my life again", she finished.
"I know that I may not live in the most glamorous house, and that we're not half as wealthy as we use to be, but I promise to be the best sister, the same that I was nine years ago".
"Oh Isabella. If only you knew", Victoria began to think her heart was now being crushed because she couldn't tell her sister the truth.

Days, weeks, months passed. Every day the sisters spent as if it were their last. One day while Isabella and Victoria were in the park; with Angela and Camilla. They were admiring their beautiful surroundings, the trees were looking over them, birds singing their angelic melodies, and they were breathing all the perfumes of the flowers, and gazing at all their misty colors. Everything seemed perfect, however as they were climbing a steep hill, Isabella leaned over her shoulder and was frightened by the image of her beloved Angela laying on the green grass fighting to take a breath. It seemed as if she was imploring to be able to take a breath and say something that would help her relive all this anger and die in peace but as soon as she was going to say word her whole body shut down. Grabbing her arm in pain, her face was now calmer, it was obvious Angela had suffered from a heart attack. Angela was dead.
"No, no, no!!"
"Please Angela open your eyes, please I beg you" Isabella and Victoria were bawling while Camilla was frigid. Standing there with her eyes as cold as ice, her face did not have any sympathy or compassion. She was just standing there with an expression of satisfaction.

It was impossible to recover from this tragic loss. Isabella had no idea what the future had for her, without Angela her world had collapsed. Thank god she had her Aunt and Victoria what better company could she have had she thought.

As time passed, Isabella began to get over Angela's death. She would still every day visit her tomb. The only good outcome of all of this was that Victoria and Isabella were inseparable, watching each other's back and defining a perfect example of sisterly love. However each time the two sisters would open up to each other and say how they felt Victoria still gave this impression of shadiness as if she was scared to say too much and give something away.
"Victoria are you feeling okay?"
"Um.. Yes I feel fine"
"I have to go I don't feel so well"

That same night Victoria began to have high fevers coughing what seemed to be blood!
"Aunt Camilla, tell me what is happening to my sister please I beg you!"
"Why is she doing all of this all of a sudden?"
Camilla just stood there not knowing what to say next but finally came clean and said "She has always been acting like this but you were so slow you never noticed"
Camilla reached her hand and touched Isabella's shoulder "Victoria has tuberculosis she will die"

This couldn't be happening to her, her whole life was being is ruined. There is no possible way that now that her and Victoria were finally together she has a deadly disease and will die!
"NOO!, what have I done, why me!?" said Isabella while crying her eyes out.
"Ohh, Isabella you are as weak as you mother, no wonder it is so easy to fool you!"
"You will never succeed in life you are worthless!"

Was she hallucinating? What is happening, what happened to her Aunt that changed her to a devil.
"My plan is going wonderful!"
"What are you talking about!? What plan?!?"
"Oh, have you ever wondered how on earth only YOUR house got burned and how miraculously you and your sister survived?"

Isabella could hear Victoria in the back ground, hearing her struggle trying to get up and finally tell her the truth.
"Isabella.." Victoria's voice was almost gone her whole face was so pale her beautiful hazel eyes had a dull stare and her stance was becoming weak.
"Oh.. Victoria please don’t waste your energy trying to prevent what is going to occur" Camilla's gave an expression of cruelty to poor Vitoria.
"I was the one who killed your family, I hated my sister your mother! She was always the favorite one who lived the perfect life with the perfect husband!"
"Now I have the money that you two would have inherited however, since she can die any second, I will need someone to pretend to be her and that will be you my dear."
"Otherwise the money will not be available for me anymore and Auntie Camilla doesn't want that to happen."

Isabella felt so weak watching Victoria practically fall apart in front of her eyes and hearing all of this all at once was too much for her. She wanted to do something but it seemed as if her whole body was opposing.

"Isabella, oh Isabella your life is going to.." before finishing what Camilla was going to say they both saw Victoria slowly drop down to the floor lean over to Isabella and say
"Isabella, I will never forgive myself for putting you on what you are going to live for the rest of your life, please forgive me" Her eyes began to close, but still she managed to look at Isabella one more time and say, "Please" her soul was free now, her soul was free of evil, her soul was free from Camilla.

It was a warm and sunny morning in the small country of Luna Blanca, the birds were already sharing their beautiful melodies with the world. Something inside, told Arianna Scippa that today would be a great day, the day she would be free and not live up to her father’s name, the King of the Luna Blanca; Luigi Scippa.

Since the day Arianna was born she was always told that she would never be a normal girl, and sadly she was now starting to believe it. She was never allowed to play outside nor have any friends that weren’t in her level, social and economical wise. However, one day when she was walking in the streets of Manta with her nana Leonor she noticed a good looking but poorly dressed boy who she had never seen in her life.
“Nana have you ever seen this boy before?” Arianna asked.
“No, I’m surprised I have not.” Leonor responded.

Without taking no for an answer, Arianna immediately made her way towards the unfortunate boy, who seemed to make her feel quite anxious in some way. When she was finally by him, she became aware of his stunning green eyes, which seemed similar to hers, something that was very bizarre due to the fact that she only knew two people that had these colored eyes her and her father.
“Hello, my name is Arianna Scippa daughter of Luigi Scippa, and I’m afraid I haven’t had the pleasure of meeting you.” Arianna said.
“Oh, well I am Rafael Gagliardo, and the reason why you have never seen me is because I am from Italy and I have been granted a scholarship which allowed me to come to this country.” Rafael answered.
“So you’re from Italy how interesting, you must know that Luna Blanca is a wonderful country and I would more than happy to show you this amazing place.” She said
“Arianna, I do not think that your father would be very pleased of knowing that you are talking to this boy, someone who you have never met!” interrupted Leonor as she was pulling Arianna away.

Even though Arianna knew this very well, for she was always told to never talk to any strangers, something about this stranger in particular gave Arianna a feeling she couldn’t describe. It was as if she had always known him, but this was clearly impossible since he had just gotten to Luna Blanca. Unfortunately Arianna was obligated to say good-bye to this boy, and to the chances of knowing him better.

However, as time passed it seemed as if destiny wanted Rafael and Arianna to become friends because every time that Arianna and Leonor would go for a walk in the streets they would always come across this boy. At last, when Leonor wasn’t paying any attention Arianna managed to make her way towards him, once again. This time as she was making her way through, she noticed that Rafael was a painter just like her; due to the fact that he had displayed his art work for everyone to admire. As she observed his work she was surprised by how beautiful they were, too bad she wasn’t as talented as he was.
“Hello Rafael, how are you doing,” Arianna said
Surprised by her arrival, Rafael responded “Good Thank you”
“Rafael, I have to say I am impressed by your beautiful art work” said Arianna
“Thank-you very much, if you want I don’t have any trouble teaching some of my techniques, in which I am sure will be useful since I have heard that you are an artist yourself” Rafael assured.
“Oh thank you, and yes I do accept your offer” Arianna said with a friendly smile.
To Arianna accepting Rafael’s offer seemed all right, little did she know that by accepting it one of the biggest secrets there could be would slowly get revealed.

As time passed, and as Rafael and Arianna continued their art lessons a strong friendship grew as well. Rafael had told Arianna about his life and how he and his family weren’t the wealthiest, also how his Father had taught him all he knows about the arts. However, each time they would meet in Arianna’s palace for their classes, she would notice the similarities both of them shared. The stunning green eyes, the beautiful red hair, but most importantly a birth mark right behind the right ear which symbolized the Scippa heritage, were a few of many things they had in common.

At times Arianna would just try to ignore all of their physical similarities, but as the days went by she was getting a more and more suspicious, until it was all revealed. One cold and rainy day as Arianna and Rafael were getting ready to begin their classes, a huge argument captured both of their attentions. It was Arianna’s Father talking to his assistant, they were having a very loud argument about some secret, in which Arianna had no knowledge of. But as the argument got louder she heard the most shocking thing ever.

Fifteen years ago when Arianna was born, his Father was the most powerful man, and still is, in Luna Blanca since he was the King. The only chance for him to get let out of his throne was if he had a son, someone from own blood. Luigi knew this very well, and this was exactly what he had always feared. That’s the reason why he had sent his own son away, to another country where no one would know of his existence, so he could still rule Luna Blanca.

As horrifying as this seemed it was the truth, even though Arianna never spent time with her Father and thanks to him she always had to be watched by bodyguards, she still loved him very deeply and knowing that what he had done just tore her apart. Everything made sense now all the their similarities weren’t just coincidence, Rafael and Arianna were twins. Now she knew she would never feel alone ever again, and she would have someone that could make her feel better besides Leonor.

After that day it seemed as if Luigi had disappeared from the planet, because he was never heard from ever again. It all seemed like a miracle the way Rafael and Arianna met and how they got to know each. Rafael was now the King and he had ordered to bring all his siblings to Luna Blanca. From that day on Arianna and Rafael Scippa lived a happy and peaceful life the way it should have always been.

Love and Friendship Essay

As we grow from a child to an adult, there are many events in our lives that can change drastically and determine who or what we will become in the future. However, many of us have something in common, something desperately important something that can have a great impact on how we act, talk, and think: love and friends. Love and friendship is something very valuable to have in life because without it life would not only be dull, it would also bring grief and sadness to our souls.

One of the most significant feelings that a person can experience to be successful in life, is love. Love is an emotion that is innate to some human beings, or can be developed by time or ones experiences. For example, when you are born there is an immediate feeling of protection and affection that your parents will feel once they see you, and as time passes you will learn to love them back as well, and learn how to love others too. However there are also the types of people that overlook this sentiment, these kinds of people are not strangers to loneliness and melancholy and they live their lives filled with misery. A perfect example is a character in the book The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, about a man that lives in such deep depression that he finds himself raping millions of young girls to feel content and not abandoned, destroying not only his life but sadly the girls’ lives too.

Even though love is an important emotion, friendship is essential as well. Friendship can be a companionship between a related or non related person. Real friends can be a little like a source of self-steam because whenever you are feeling sad or depressed they are by your side helping you get through a complicated time. True friendship never dies no matter if great distances or extended periods of time are involved, if it’s a true friendship it will last forever. This reminds of the time I had to say goodbye to my friends in Ecuador, even though we live millions of miles apart we always keep in touch and in my recent trip to Ecuador we reunited and it felt as if we were never apart. Friends, the right ones, can improve our lives and help our future become brighter.

Love and friendship, are both two very important feelings that help us be grateful for life in every unique way by appreciating the happiness that we live everyday. Hopefully now that you have understood the meaning of love and friendship you will be thankful and grateful to have a happy life filled with love and friends.
