At the end of Night, by Elie Wiesel, as Wiesel is staring back into his own corpses eyes, it is clear to readers that Wiesel’s emotions, feelings, and even psychological mindset is completely and utterly eradicated. After enduring not only the mental toll of the Holocaust but also the somatic torture placed upon him, Wiesel is nothing but dead- just not literally. As found on page 85, “I was putting one foot in front of the other, like a machine.” This refers to a time when Wiesel’s body was performing on autopilot. His mind wished so desperately to leave it’s failing material yet it was never able to. Wiesel’s brain was no longer a part of him for in his situation meaning so brought death. In Night, Wiesel’s drive of religion…

“At Damien Memorial School, what makes us different, unites us.” Over the years that I’ve been here at Damien I’ve come to realize that the quote above is rather true in ways that other schools haven’t quite experienced. Despite the fact that we’re a pretty small school compared to Punahou, Kamehameha, Iolani, or Sacred Hearts, we’re all different whether it’s our personality or our ethnic backgrounds. These two things help to unite all of us as a community to understand people whose ancestors are from different parts of the world and how it has shaped someone and their life. If it weren’t for the diversity amongst the students and teachers at Damien, it would be boring because everyone would be the same. Nevertheless, diversity allows us to…

I feel that I would gain valuable skills that would help me as I prepare for college. I also think NDA would be a good school for me is because it is a faith-based education. Being a Catholic and attending CCD for many years, I feel a faith-based education at NDA would bring me closer to God. With a focus on religious values and…
