One day multiple years ago, I was on a trail ride with my mom, my sister, and some family friends, we went to a gas station to get some snacks and I was getting back on my pony and she bolted across a 4-way stop with cars coming from 2 directions. I had no control of her and was scared speech-less. Already scared of horses and riding them and such, I was in tears and very upset. An old man was selling stuff on the corner that she ran by and I was lucky enough that he followed her and I on foot (as she was running very quickly) and he was yelling “whoa” which is what you say to get horses to stop. He got her to stop and approached us and got me off safely. I was so scared I didn’t know what to do. My mom and sister came running across the

Thank god the eagle swooped in at just the right moment, boy if she would have been a second late I would've been a goner. I'm not afraid of death or anything, I mean it happens all the time. I actually tend to think about death quite frequently, but I figured getting eaten by a moron raccoon was a helluva way to go. Boy was I thankful the eagle saved

...ll a doe because I wanted a buck, but I remembered that my father had once told me that bucks tend to follow doe's around while trying to mate, so I waited with such anxiety and nervousness along with that adrenaline rush and a buck walks out while seeking the doe. I then tried to slowly lift my gun to get in a ready position and I bumped the side of the deer stand with my gun because I was shaking very badly. Well, the deer quickly hear the bump; the buck in particular, and ran away leaving me in a sense of uneasiness and great madness all because I was so nervous in that certain situation.

During afternoon recess in the second grade, I received my first major injury. The teacher on recess duty blew the whistle and signaled for the students to line up. Unfortunately for me, the merry-go-round I sat on spun indefatigably. I glanced over at the lines to see my classmates escorted inside. Nevertheless, I took a risk and lept off the merry-go-round (terrible mistake).

It was a Friday night, and my friends, Ryann and Josh, and I were traveling to Nashville, Tennessee for a country music festival. We were in St. Louis when I remembered the traffic being really heavy, and Josh was our driver. Josh was very prohibitive with his driving, considering he had two other people in his car. Ryann suggested that he should get into his right lane, but he told her no. He said that we are prone to get into an accident if we switched lanes, so he was obstinate with his idea. All of a sudden I remember hitting the dash and being knocked out cold.

This last year has been a roller coaster, in a year I’ve learned more about myself then I have all my life. I’ve grown up and learned that nothing is just handed to you everything takes at least a little effort and it’s all about how much you're willing to give. Looking back at the beginning of this year I remember looking at my schedule for the first time and thinking about everything I had to accomplish and honestly sadly I can’t say I did my best in everything. I went through a really rough patch when i was diagnosed with severe depression and it set me way far back and i didn’t exactly give it my all in getting back up there in school.

I was raised in a strict environment. Most of the time, my mother was at work and I was forced to withstand my grandmother. She saw me as an adolescent at such a young age and treated me like one. That is where my innocence was removed. Luckily, I had school. I was pretty dumb, both academically and emotionally. I was not a social person. I was a kid from Austin and I was new to the people and community. The community was neither bad or good. It seemed like a regular place as no other. Being a person that was blamed for nearly everything, I didn’t speak much. I didn’t socialize often. Eventually, I met my best friend. He understood my situation and we liked games. He actually opened my eyes to the world of gaming. Eventually, I made a few

Around 7th grade, material possessions started to become my priority. Due to the fact, there was a surprisingly high amount of peer pressure to better than the next person, to look your best, and everywhere I looked people were consumed by their phone or the internet. It seemed imperative to have a cell phone at this point. So, I asked my parents and after much convincing they said yes.

It is exactly seven in the morning. My alarm erupts with a harsh blast, and I am roughly dragged from the world of dreams to drudge once more through the world of the living. I wipe the sleep from my eyes, and contemplate for a moment escaping back into the world of sleep – how sweet would it be to fall back on the bed, close my eyes, and drift once more through my dreams. Perhaps if I were more alert, I could have dramatized the situation, “To sleep, perchance to dream”. But frankly, I'm not awake enough to quote anyone (with perhaps the exception of Shel Silverstein), only awake enough to stumble headlong into the shower with the deepest hope that I can, with hot water, rectify my current state. I can't. The water is not arousing but soothing, relaxing my muscles and lulling me back into my quiet place of reprieve. I am a poltergeist, raised forcibly from my sleep by some ungodly force, and ready to do battle with the world

As you can tell, I’ve been mentally scarred many times by animals. They’re funny stories to look back on, but when I think of when it happened, I get a bit freaked out all over again. With two out of my four stories having to do with deer you can probably see why I’m not much of a deer person. I’m sure I’ll have more interesting encounters and stories to come, but I hope those ones don’t scar me for life like these ones.

I was walking home from my friend’s house when I saw a stray dog, it was in the middle of the street blocking my way, I decided to walk past it, while I was walking it started growling at me, I hesitated but still kept trying to walk then suddenly it got up and started barking empathically towards me. I was terrified, my first initial reaction being a 6 year old kid was to scare it away, I was ignorant. I picked up a rock and threw it at the dog thinking it’ll get scared and run away. I was wrong. The dog had enough it made a whimpering noise then started barking even louder

My mom and I arrived at my great aunt’s house in Ely, Nevada at around dinnertime. We both decided it was time to get some sleep due to our long drive. My mom had asked me to wake her up if my dad did not call or arrive by midnight. She was obviously very tired from driving and I had slept most of the way anyways. I could tell my mom was very worried about my dad because he was traveling on his Harley Davidson, and the roads were dangerous. My innocent ten-year-old mind did not think anything bad could happen,
