My favorite experience with a friend

My favorite experience with a friend

by: arjun agrawal
I like sharing time with my friends. The best experience I have ever had with a friend was when I met my best friend Justin Bailey. 

It was the first day of school in 5th grade. I had an old friend named Jason. Jason and I have been friends for such a long time. But we parted ways. I had no one to play with.... A few moments later someone came up to me and said.... "Hi...umm........what is your name?" We introduced ourselves. His name was Justin Bailey. It was first recess, and I walked with Justin. Justin and I didn't know what to do. We were bored. Then I reached out to Justin and suggested a game called 4-square which I was good at. Justin was very flexible and tried it out. I showed Justin how to play four square. He got so interested that practiced with me for weeks during every recess.  Now we play like a pro.

Justin and I are both very compatible with each other for two main reasons. We like the same things and we support each other.

First of all, we both like to play the same games. First game in particular we like is a game called 4-square. We have teamed up to defeat everyone in our school.  That was awesome and it felt like a major accomplishment. Another thing we have in common is that we like to play a video game called Minecraft. Minecraft is a  game where entire world is made up of blocks. You have to use your creativity to build a home and defend yourself from monsters. At home we would Google chat with each other while playing Minecraft. Justin and I would discuss strategies on how to beat some hard monsters. We had beaten many games and Minecraft tournaments.

Secondly, we support each other. When someone bullies one of us we stand up for each other. For example, a boy named Joe bullies me a lot. Joe says that Justin is a really cool gamer and I am not... In response, Justin defended me by saying that I play the same games as him, I have a powerful laptop like him, etc. So why shouldn't I be a good gamer. This embarrassed Joe and ran away. Another example is when a boy named Bob bragged to Justin that Bob's laptop looks much more cooler and thinner than Justin's. Then I took a stand and explained that It doesn't matter how good a computer looks, it matters what is the inside processor performance... Apparently Justin's laptop was much powerful than Bob's. Then Bob just gets mad and goes away.

In conclusion, my favorite experience with a friend was when I met Justin. We shared many things together and had fun doing it. We also support each other. Overall, he made a positive impact on my life. I hope our friendship stays forever.

Social Anxiety Essay

     My name is Arjun Agrawal. I am a 16 year old teenager in High School. I have received a lot of feedback stating that I have social anxiety and am scared to mingle with strangers. I will be taking three steps towards addressing this. I will play less video games, play more physical games with familiar people, and interact more with strangers.      Firstly, I vow to play less video games. Video games give instant gratification and happiness. This creates addiction. Addictions to video games consume a lot of time. It takes away time from interacting with other people or playing outside. Playing less video games will create much more space for social interaction.      When I am invited to play basketball with my friends, I don't join. This is because I am afraid that I will embarrass myself. Therefore, I dedicate some of my free time playing physical games with familiar people to build confidence. First, I will play basketball with my little brothers outside in my front yard.

TA-14

   John A. Fisher is a concerned parent. He believes that garden education is vital to the future of children.  His article, "Growing the Kinder-Garden" argues that schools should teach garden education. In order to convince his audience, Fisher instills a feeling of guilt, appeals to logos, and uses collective pronouns.      First of all, Fisher instills a feeling of guilt into his audience. He talks about how children in today's society barely know about gardening. He provides a strong point stating that, "if you have a young child, ask him or her where food comes from. Don't be surprised if the answer you get is 'From the store!'" This shows that most children don't know where food truly comes from. They are so isolated from the real world of farming, they think that food comes from the stores. In reality, all food comes from farms and gardens. Kids these days are becoming obese. They're eating manufactured foods instead of natural food

Positive Outlook Essay

     If a glass is filled halfway, is the glass half-full or half-empty? This is a commonly asked question to test a person's outlook. Although both choices are correct, each represents a different outlook. If they say it's half full then they are most likely a positive person. If they say it's half empty then they're most likely a negative person. Having a negative outlook on life can be pretty depressing. However, this is not permanent. It can be fixed. In order to have a positive attitude you must appreciate what you have. You can start out by cherishing nature, cherishing family, and cherishing knowledge.    The world is a beautiful place. You must learn to cherish it. Travelling and hiking are both great ways to appreciate nature. Mountainous landscapes formed by small rivers will amaze you. You don't have to go far to embrace nature. Every morning there is a beautiful sunrise right in your backyard. Chances are, if it in your backyard, it is everywhere. How
