My greatest influences are my parents and my brother. My brother suffered from Guillain- Barre Syndrome when he was eight. He lived in the hospital on an artificial ventilation for 97 days and later he had to continue physical therapy for at least ten years as he was completely paralyzed. My parents and my brother devoted their few years completely for his treatment. Today, my brother is a successful engineer working in the bay area. I learned that with dedication, determination and diligence we can achieve our dream in life…
The rising action that takes place is when the Baudelaire children arrive to Count Olaf's large home. They expected a nicer home and parent but the children did not want to be picky and judgmental. First impressions are not always right, but this one was definitely a correct first impression as Count Olaf is not a marvelous parent indeed. Out of the whole house, or mansion, they shared one room with one bed. There were hundreds of bedrooms in the mansion, but being the selfish person he is, Count Olaf prohibited multiple rooms for the children to sleep…
In the story “The Good Big Black Man” the main character Olaf is paranoid of Jim, a giant black man, who comes to stay at his hotel. Olaf is convinced that Jim is going to kill him, and the more he thinks about it, the more he is convinced. Rather than think about it rationally, he lets his fears get out of control. His fear of Jim ultimately leads to the delusion that his life is in danger. The short story, “Big Good Black Man”, by Richard Wright, Olaf’s fear changes his perception of Jim, which illustrates how one’s fear can spiral out of control until it warps one’s vision of reality.…
At the beginning of the year it felt like I would have never been able to write any paper that was more than two pages long, it just seemed impossible, but for the research paper I actually had to stop myself from going off and writing a twelve page paper. I will admit and say that English is not my strong suit, in fact it is probably one of my more difficult classes. But just because it is difficult does not mean I don’t like it. I like looking for topics that interest me and still fit in with the guidelines, I like getting involved in the paper and researching the topic until it feels like my head is about to explode. I never saw any of that coming, I thought that I was going to have to go through English and just pray…
Parents enjoyed watching this with their children because it was cute but also taught them a lesson of taking care of their environment (Rotten Tomatoes). Parents thought some parts of the movie was scary but it helped them learn to take care of their environment. All in the entire movie wasn’t too much different from the book (“Movie Review”). The next book that is loved by many is How the Grinch Stole Christmas.…
I relate to this story very well. I am sort of like Tom where I like to go out and have fun, but somehow get in trouble. I don’t know if I would go and steal gold coins, although it might be enjoyable. I think it would be fun going out with friends and stirring up trouble. It would also be great if I could get someone to do my chores and work for me. Tom seems like he has so much fun on his adventures, even though he does some things he is not supposed to do. Tom and I are sort of alike, we both hate school just want to sit outside or go on adventures. I also would like to live back in his day, no TV, internet, not even a phone your entertainment is going around the town. Back in those days you would have no fear of robbers or even murders,…
Joseph Campbell, a scholar, studied ancient mythology for many years until he developed the Hero’s Journey.The Hero’s Journey is the journey that a hero goes on during his/her adventure. One of my many adventures is a mission trip a couple of years ago. During this journey I left my ordinary safe world, had challenges and tests, and I’ve received mental and physical rewards as a hero does on the Hero’s Journey.…
I was a camp counselor at Camp Wabikon ‒ a co-ed overnight summer camp located in Temagami, Ontario for children who are 6-15 years of age. Along with teaching Red Cross swimming and lifesaving and Tennis, I was my cabin's 'parent' for six weeks. Therefore, I was present with the children at all times. In essence, I was the leader of my cabin's the physical, social and mental development. The main things I learned were the importance of time management and organization , as I had to plan lessons for swimming and Tennis while taking care of my cabin; conflict resolution between campers; and the ability to plan and foresee events (I had to plan camp-wide events and activities for all campers).…
Have you ever wondered where you would be if you would have chosen another path? Have you ever wondered how that choice could have changed your life if you would have made it? Often I look back and think about my past and look at the places I have been and the things I have done. Some things I’m not proud of. Some of those things bring back vague memories. Whether they are good or bad they still come back to me. Everything we do is based upon choices. After we make those choices there comes consequences. We can never decide our consequences, they just come.…
Up on the mountain tops, just past Payson and just before Strawberry, lies my home away from home. It’s the good old, Olson family cabin. Sitting at approximately 5300 feet elevation, Pine, Arizona is naturally 20 degrees cooler than Phoenix. It is not your typical log cabin. Rather, it is a small house with a large loft, almost as big as the house. It is surrounded by tall, rich green pine trees, and for that reason my family has dubbed it “the cabin.” The Olson family cabin has had a profound affect on my life because of the lessons it taught me growing up, the people I spent time there with, and the activities it has inspired.…
When I moved from the eastside to the westside of Dearborn in 2006, I felt distraught. I barely knew anyone that went to Bryant Middle School. I wanted to return home and talk to my friends that went to Woodworth Middle School, in East Dearborn. To comfort me with a pet, my brothers took me along with them to the Dearborn Animal Shelter. We combed through several cages containing cats; we saw an adorable three-legged cat, a beautiful calico cat, and some cute white kittens. We then came upon a cage containing a small white and black cat named Ring Leader. Ring Leader was 5 months old at the time. He was lightly shedding, climbing over the shelter worker, and feverishly looking around. Ring Leader seemed like an energetic and fun cat, so I chose…
It was too late. I couldn’t possibly return. Not after what I’d done. I had to live on the ground from then on, but all my life I’ve been in the sky. I didn’t know how to survive on the ground but the birds, my cousins, they had adapted so I could to. The clouds rippled under me, before, I had never dared go below them. I had everything I needed back home so why would I venture into the unknow, the unsafe. But, I didn’t have a home and I couldn’t fly forever. I started lowering closer to the clouds.…
After retaking the LASSI I have noticed a considerable amount of improvement as well as regression. In the beginning of the year, I vowed to myself that I would become a better student. I wanted to maximize all of my abilities in order to be successful. So, after I took my first LASSI and had my talk with Mac, I began to implement new strategies meant to help me accomplish my goal. First I had to deal with my anxiety. In past years I suffered with a lot of anxiety while learning math. I used to love math very much, however, this changed after my 6th grade year. Math became a foreign subject to me. I could no longer make connections and solve problems. As a result, my grades in math began to drop. As a person who is used to getting A’s and B’s on assignments, I had a difficult time in coping with my failure since it didn’t live up to my standards in the subject of math. My difficulty with math eventually caused me to have anxiety. I had carried this anxiety until my sophomore year in high school. It seemed as if no matter how hard I tried to concentrate on math tests my mind would always become blank. Luckily I had an…
