I am involved. I have been dancing for fourteen years now‚ playing the piano for thirteen years‚ and running track for almost six years. Not to mention‚ I have managed to hold three jobs now and‚ I have donated the remainder of my free time to community service. Perhaps to say that I am involved is an understatement- I am totally involved! Nonetheless‚ I don’t think I would be nearly as well-rounded as I would be without four vital virtues: scholarship‚ character‚ leadership‚ and service. I believe

In the text Twenty Questions by G Lee Bowie‚ I chose the chapter “Why Shouldn’t I Be Selfish”? In that chapter the two selections that were chosen were The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins and The Virtue of Selfishness by Ayn Rand.

ESSAY Birds and Cages The world is a big place and there are thousands of creatures in it. Although we believe in freedom‚ we rarely give it to the animals that share all the beauty around us. I personally believe that birds are one of the incarcerated living beings and shouldn’t be left in cages‚ but set free to enjoy the space God planned for them. There are many different types of birds‚ with outrageous colors‚ sizes and environments. They all share wings that let them fly‚ allowing them to feel

My adventure in learning to read began with my parents. When I was younger getting ready for bed was a treat‚ I would brush my deciduous teeth‚ put on my Spongebob pajama pants‚ and give my parents enough kisses to persuade them to read me a bedtime story. But the best part came when I was able to climb into my cushioned cotton covers and imagine handsome princes slaying dragons‚ evil witches cackling with delight‚ or what it would be like to hear an itsy bitsy spider climb up a water spout.

I don’t remember specifics on how I learned to read‚ but I do remember learning how to read at an early age. My mother was an elementary school teacher and spent a lot of time working with me on my letters and sounds. I remember doing a lot of flashcards with my mom on the different letters and phonemes.

The scenery of the mountains in the background are so soft but strong. It is not a scenery that I am very use to seeing. The uniqueness of the rainforest is not something most people

The five-part essay is a step up from the five-paragraph essay. Often called the "persuasive" or "argumentative" essay‚ the five-part essay is more complex and accomplished‚ and its roots are in classical rhetoric.
