  1. I am determined. To feel nothing. To turn off. To run and hide until the boogeyman and his apoco-hounds have left the building and I can safely return to the comfort of my home. My blanket fort is a plush bomb shelter.

    determination
    strength, grit, climbing a knotted rope

  4. I was determined to live my life until it came to be my time. I did things i would’ve never had a year, let alone a month ago. Funny how your take on life changes when you figure out you only have a year to live. When did my doctor tell me this? Exactly one month ago from today. So here i am determined as ever.

  5. I was determined to do well this semester. I was determined to win your heart back. I was determined to get my life back in my own hands. I was determined to change everything. Sometimes, determination is not enough. Sometimes my best isn’t enough and I guess I’m not either.

  6. Determined to me means that you want to do something and nothing will stop you from doing it.
    I.e I met this boy not too long ago though I’ve known him since i was 5 we just started talking again. Im determined to see him now ( im 15 and he’s 18) and i may be falling for him. He’s perfect to me and im determined to be with him. I dont mean to sound crazy or even come off as a little creepy but thats just how it is.

  7. I don’t know what to say about that. Sometimes I think that I am and other times i think that i just want people to think that i am. sometimes all the bones in my body feel heavy and old and i dont want to be determined, just derailed. sometimes it all feels like an illusion.

  8. I wasn’t going to crack. Last time I was in this situation, I gave up and told them who I was working for. It’s easy to say, ‘Ahh, it’s just a little bit of torture. I can handle it’ But when I’m actually in that predicament and having my nipples sliced off with a blunt and rusty butter knife, things never, and I mean never, go according to plan. But this time I was determined to keep it buttoned. I wasn’t going to tell them a thing, not a single thing, nothing, nada, not even my shoe size. (If they happen to ask.) But that big bloke lolloping towards me right now with the generator and set of jump leads might have a slightly different idea.

  9. The horror of it was — as he lied there pale and not breathing — she determined the body was still (somehow) alive.

  10. the way i want to feel the way everyone wants to feel. the feeling some make up the feeling you feel when all is meant to be lost but you continue to go on. the word i want to be known for but never am. the word nobody truly knows until everything has been ripped from under their feet but continue to walk on.

  11. I’m determined to do well on my thesis presentation today. I just don’t want to make a fool of myself. :) I want to glorify the Lord in all that I do. He has given me the talent to write – I write for Him. I share for Him. Thank you for making me the way you have, Lord.

  12. I am so determined to be happy. Unbelievably so. After months of feeling like absolute crap, I’m determined to change all that and finally be genuinely happy. I know it’s a hard task, but I’m up to the challenge.

  13. I sit here. Determined. I am determined not to scream. Determined not to shout my displeasure. Not to scream how done I am with all these games, with all this pretending and masquerading for the benefit of those we don’t Even care about!

  14. I am determined to make it through college. I am determined to travel. Everywhere. I want to experience the unusual for the rest of my life. I am determined to change, but at the same time never lose who I am. I am determined to live, to really live.

  15. I was determined not to tell them anything that I had done that day. They all are so critical of every move I make! I wanted to just go and follow my nose for the day and I did. It was marvelous!

  19. He leaned close and said, “You’d be surprised what a human being is capable of, when he has to.” He was right. So many people survive in harsh conditions of starvation and hypothermia. Just when you think your body and mind has reached its limits, your limits are obliterated. Unless you really do die. Then that sucks.

  20. She looked deeply at scene playing out before her. There was several well dressed hard working people in suits seated at thier desks buisily working thier lives away and she knew. She was determined to be the boss of the all someday, to find success however she had to get it, even if it meant giving up her humanity. She most likely would have give it up in this messes up world anyway

  21. Fest entschlossen. Wäre ich gern. Da steht diese Frage im Raum – hole ich die Katzen zu mir oder nicht? Und kann ich wirklich drei Geschwisterkatzen trennen? Was wird aus der dritten, um die ich mich nicht kümmern kann? Und werden es die beiden bei mir besser haben? Was, wenn ich mich nicht gut genug kümmere?

  22. How do I get somewhere if I don’t know the way? Which road is the right one? Most times I don’t know but what I do know is that I can’t get there unless I’m determined to see it come to fruition.

  23. Her eyes narrowed as she approached the starting line. Everything around her vanished as she scraped the mudded ground with her fingers, getting into her starting position. Her whole body tensed, every muscle aching to compete. She was ready.

  24. I’m determined not to fail. We have to be perfect this time because she’s here and there’s no excuse not to be amazing. 5 is a Fibonacci number but 6 is a perfect number. Someday I will be a 6 and I will be expected to be perfect. I have to be perfect. I’m determined to be perfect, not just Fibonacci, I wonder if therea are any Fibonacci numbers that are also perfect?

  25. I am determined to succeed. This is a deep desire that burns on the inside of my soul and cannot be blown out. I will. The powers of my mind further push my determination. I will succeed. No hindrances, distractions, anything will block me.

  26. I am determined not to conform to some standard here. I will not write in some contrived manner that befits a form of story telling like I usually do. I will not lie in this post. I will write something random. Something without meaning. I told the truth in one of these sentences. I was determined I could do at least that.

  27. Determination was something Marion had in spades, with one goal in mind: to get out of the MiddleWest.

    Every time Alana or someone else bought one of her gowns, she hid as much money as she could under a floorboard in her room. Because Europe was calling, louder every day.
