Not only do I bind things together, but I am serving a purpose to make someone think. The object of thought is appreciation. It's so easy to take things for granted. In fact, the phrase "taking things for granted" is taken for granted. So many times we only appreciate the good things in life, but what about the bad? ALL things work together for good--whether we see the good or n... Continue reading ...

Name: Rosa Ornelas Description: Spiral, pink Some judge others hate but yet there are people in the world who love and care. Life is a roller coaster wherever you go there will be ups and downs. Some may look at you funny but don't let that affect you. Just give them a smile and don't say anything. Be glad you are who you are and live your own life. My everyday life is like this and maybe yours is too but whatever you do just hold your head high and be proud of who you are!  ... Continue reading ...

Name: Emily Calderon Description: Small, white and pink striped "To My Dad" I never knew you part of me didn't want to. Filled with so much anger and hate I hadn't met you till I was eight. The first time I met you was at my house. You were so tall, I felt like a mouse. We sat on the couch, you said, "I'm your father" I then asked, "Why bother?" Tears welled in my little girl eyes, my emotion conflict getting the better. He spoke with a slang, had dreadlocks and a beard. I always thought, this can't be my f... Continue reading ...

Name: HarleeRay Bicknell Description: Red, star This is the story of some Paperclips. My first clip was Purple. That's my favorite color. I was very determined to keep it constantly. That failed. My first clip was holding out strong for me. It was on at every marching band contest. It felt the way I put my heart and soul in my performances. It was then on November 3, 2012, when I walked off the field at State. For every hug and every tear. That's not all that clip went through. It we... Continue reading ...
