Third slide Many people dislike, out of 10 people 7.5 disliked it, only 1.5 liked it and only 1 was neutral. It is dull and boring and was made in 2002 making it outdated and irrelevant to life in 2014 since it was 12 years ago. There are…

On a humid summer day in Chicago, my family and I decided to take a long journey to visit my distant family/friend in the Upper East Side of Chicago. Although, the car ride seemed peaceful and smooth, little did I know this was a journey to the most horrific town I’ve ever seen.…
The Roman Republic ruled 2,045 years ago, but like the United States it had its own form of democracy. “Demo” means people and “cracy” means government so democracy means a government for the people. In Rome the government wasn’t perfect, but it still allowed the people some freedom and gave them certain rights to government affairs. The Roman Republic was, however, more democratic than not because one part of the government was made up of lower class citizens, people could vote, and the citizens were allowed to legislate. Similar to the United States, there were three branches of the government one of which was made up of lower class citizens called Plebeians allowing normal citizens to vote.…
I broke my arm today while getting on the freight train. Thank God I still have an arm unlike some of the other I have meet who have lost an arm or leg and some even know someone who has lost their life ( Riding the Rails). I have done this a couple of time now and I shouldn't have been so anxiety about it but I was. I hide under the track outside the yard like I normally do, waiting for the train to reach momentum so I could get on. I forgot to check for the bull guards who are hired to keep hoboes from jumping on freight. I guess I got too comfy with my environment( Riding the rails). Right when I was getting on the trains, I heard the bull guards yelling and chasing after me. It threw me off my balance and I nearly fell off the train. I…
I am from San Antonio, Texas and growing up in San Antonio was a great experience. I am proud to be from a big city with a small town feel with strong family values. San Antonio is a city rich in culture that her people love as much as Texas.…
I went on a trip to Las Vegas for Christmas one year and it was a trip that I would never forget. When we arrived in Las Vegas we stayed in the Luxor Hotel. The Luxor in Las Vegas is a good place to go because of the luxury of the hotel, the exquisite food, and magnificent entertainment. I enjoyed staying in the famous Luxor hotel and Casino. I loved staying in the beautiful four star hotel, it was fun, and I hope to go back someday.…
A hill of aspens, glowing golden, shines on the right side of the trail while the left side is a pine-covered hill. Between the two is the trail, a magical escape from reality. This is my sanctuary of Buffalo Peaks wilderness. The trying experience of hiking through the mountains with 40 pounds on your back, the straps of your pack rubbing the skin off your hips and shoulders. The tension building in your muscles as you struggle under the weight. The pain that can only be diluted by a yoga session and a trip to the hot springs. Sun salutations in a lush, meadow valley. Warrior one and reverse warrior in the heat of the sun, relaxing from the miles we traveled just the day before.…

During the 19th century, Benjamin Disraeli, a British politician made a statement that still has significant resonance today: “There are three kinds of lies – lies, damned lies, and statistics” (as cited in Ball, 2004). Disraeli’s statement is merely a simple explanation of how the media sensationalize data, especially crime data, when reporting or publishing news items to the public. In that regard, reporters and journalist on many occasions take liberties in spicing data and news items up just to garnish some increased attention from the readers or the listeners. In a broader sense, media reporting may not accurately reflect facts since reporters and journalists has the ability to manipulate figures to say whatever they want them to.…

Moving on is easy but what you leave behind is what makes it hard. Once you get to a certain age in your life you know you have to move on sometime. I know times are hard but you have to push yourself toward what you really want in life even if it means moving away from what you love.…
On the second day of school during my sophomore year, I realized how much Wahlert meant to me. It had become my home, the place where I felt like I belonged; school almost even seemed like a break from summer. Over the summer, I had become an empty shell and spent my time at the computer wasting the time away; the only interactions I had were with my family, and on rare occasion with my best friends, when we had sleepovers. To see the people I had missed over the summer was great. All of these things felt so true in that moment.…
I chose to become a coach because I want to help others succeed. I love sports. I particularly love basketball. I have never been the best player. Sure I was tall, but I was never the best shooter or overall player. So for me, the only way I could be a part of the sport was to become a coach.…
It’s not very often when you get to go somewhere really far away and have a ton of fun. But this was one of these times. But I never would've thought of the one thing I would have to do when we went to Disney World.…
