<view this essay>.... which lights up when the computer is in sleep mode. The second icon, which resembles a 3-dimensional cylinder, lights up whenever the C.P.U. (Central Processing Unit) is called upon to processing information. The final of the three icons takes the shape of a sun. The sun is illuminated whenever the computer is on. Near the very top of the box there is a rectangular slot which measures 1” by 5 ¼” where the CR-ROM drive resides. On the front of the CR-ROM drive there is a single oval button, which activates the slider mechanism and opens the door. Below the CD-ROM drive is a 3”x 5” disk drive.

Pliable Reality
<view this essay>.... twice and soon an old man came to the door and greeted him warmly and asked him to come right in out of the cold. He thanked the old man and asked if they had a phone and if so could he use it. He said he didn't believe in that new technology. By this time his wife walked in and introduced herself as Beth Jones, and her husband as Bob. He said he had better get going, but Mrs. Jones objected saying "You stay right here until the storm clears." He said he couldn't possibly impose himself. He then turned back to the memory or him walking across that cold muddy field. He shuddered. Mrs. Jones broke into his thoughts and said he could walk to the neigh .....

Personal Writing: The Pond
<view this essay>.... caught in the
middle of our escapade. Upon this, my brother and I snuck to their
backyard like two undercover police officers, until we were in the clear.
Nerve-wracking minutes later, flowed the emerald green and ever-so lively
lake in front of us. We stopped and starred in awe. The lake had appeared
so shiny and reflective, it resembled a finely-cut diamond. The rare and
distinct fragrance enticed us. It smelled like mother-nature herself, with
aromas ranging from wildlife and wet grass, to evaporated swamp water and
healthy dirt.
Then, the time for us to find the desired vessel arrived. We chose
the kayaks, and set out for the water. Carefully, with .....

Personal Writing: Our Trip To See The Band "Last One Standing"
<view this essay>.... driving in heavy traffic. He
has a short temper, and following a line of cars that are going thirty-
five miles an hour in a fifty zone does not help. A sigh of relief passed
through the car as we came into Burlington. Justin dropped me off at my
house in Burlington at four o'clock, a few hours before his show started.
I made my plans with them for later and sent them on their way. Something
about being home makes me feel much more relaxed. Walking into your house
and immediately recognizing that perfect smell of freshness (my mom keeps a
clean house), flopping yourself onto your comfortable bed, now this is what
makes me feel at peace.I was relieved to .....

Personal Writing: Before Stepping Up To The Plate, You Need A Spot On The Team.
<view this essay>.... about, the pinnacle of my baseball career, the All-Star team.
It was the summer of 1998, and I was in eighth grade. I had played baseball since I was a young boy, starting with T-ball and moving my way up. I was always a good player, able to keep up with all the other boys. Baseball was my life. That year, I was juggling three baseball teams, an intramural league, a travel team that everybody made, and I was trying out for the All-Star team for the first time. I did well for my intramural team, and my coach, Mr. Keubler, was also a coach for my travel team and All-Star team. He asked me to play for the travel team, called the Devlin Team and I acc .....

Personal Writing: Bad Teacher
<view this essay>.... to the
nurse's office. After going there a couple of times, over a two-week period,
she told me that I couldn't go anymore, but I sneaked passed her and went
anyway. A week later, I got hurt again, so I snuck past her again even
though she had told me not to go. That afternoon, she insulted me in front
of everybody in the class; thus, I thought of her as a mean witch. Later
that school year, I accidentally placed my finger in the doorway and
someone slammed it without knowing my finger was there. She didn't care;
therefore, she didn't tell me what to do. Consequently, I had to hold the
two parts of my finger and run upstairs alone. Even though it hurt a lot, I .....

Personal Writing: Non-Conformity
<view this essay>.... We were
a small group, but we had fun.
As our little group got older, many people dropped out. One became
a drug addict and dropped out of school. Nice. Our group was led by the
mother of two of the students. James, the son, would constantly make fun of
his mother. It seemed as if our group only talked about service projects,
which need to be done and are great, but never God. I really wanted to grow
spiritually and know more about God. I was not receiving that knowledge at
that church.
I met some really great people last year who went to Redeemer's. I
was invited to one of their youth group meetings, and I was amazed that
thirty high-school kids were there. .....

Personal Writing: Court Experience
<view this essay>.... jury
was finally called back into the courtroom for closing arguments.
To give the basics that I picked up from closing arguments was that Guge
who owns the Exxon on 105 extension was wanting more money from the state for
some property that they were confiscating for construction. The state was
offering around $60,000 and he wants $300,000. The lawyer for Guge went first.
He went on forever it seemed like. It was over an hour that he went on talking.
Some of the jurors were falling asleep as well as the judge while he was
speaking. It seems that he could have been more concise with his argument.
Pretty bad when even the judge nods off. The judge even g .....
