Through out my life‚ I have made many mistakes. I generally tend to think through what I am planning to do‚ so that I will not regret my actions later. I was recently reflecting about my past‚ trying to remember mistakes that I regretted and vowed to never repeat again. I came to the conclusion that my biggest mistake was not trying hard enough in school. My biggest regret was the fact that I wasted so much time when I was in high school‚ and never put forth an effort to succeed. I attended High

Professor Rogers The First time I….. Am I a good writer? What am I as a writer; average‚ great or horrible? As a child in elementary school I felt as if I was a great writer. I thought that I was so great that I desired to become a famous author. However‚ in middle school this dream shattered when I wrote this amazing paper (at least I thought it was amazing) and received a big fat F! That very day I felt as if my desire to become a famous writer was balled up and thrown out of the window. Writing

In the novel‚ The Great Gatsby‚ the main character‚ Jay Gatsby‚ attempts to recapture his past with his once “love of his life”: Daisy Buchanan. In this novel‚ the idea of time is described in multiple aspects. Time‚ one would say‚ is ever flowing like a wave: rising into form‚ proceeding to crashing into a white fizzing foam‚ not stopping for anything in its path. Like a wave‚ time has many stages like the past‚ present‚ and future. As people we are told to live in the moment and dwell in the present

A Fall Walk in the Park The park in the fall is what I do when the day of work has beaten me up and spit me out. What I like best about walking in the park in the fall is the changing of the colors. Most days there is a slight breeze and it gently moves the leaves helping them fall to the ground. The leaves are mixture of reds like the sun‚ royal purples‚ orange tint and they seem to fade to brown as soon as they touch the dirt. The walkway is covered by the cracked color of the remaining

The First Time I Found Out Endometriosis. I did not know what that word meant and I did not care at the moment. I was sixteen and fearless‚ but this later would scare me. I saw tears form in my mom’s eyes while I sat there wondering what my mom’s problem was. I thought this is probably the same as strep throat‚ something I could take antibiotics for and it would go away. The doctor was explaining the issue and I was slowing realizing this was not just any ordinary sickness. This was something that

acquired through enculturation. A society’s language‚ overall religious views‚ arts and entertainment‚ manners‚ and even eating habits are all attributes specific to its culture. To say that culture is learned is to put simply that it is not something you are born with‚ but rather something that is learned as a child.

styles and types but they all mean something. The theme I have decided to write about is the theme "only fools fall in love" from the book The Great Gatsby‚ by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The Protagonist‚ Jay Gatsby‚ is "in love" with Daisy Buchanan. Why do I say "in love" with quotes? I say it like this because throughout the story it seems to me that he may be just "in love" with a dream of Daisy or simply "in love" with the idea of being in love. Gatsby is the biggest fool of them all for many reasons. The

Why Did I Get Married Why Did I Get Married is a movie about four couples and the problems they were faced with. Each couple faces different issues such as money problems‚ infidelity‚ mental abuse‚ and much more. I believe this movie ties into Women Studies very well because it does not just address one issue that relates to the class but multiple. Another reason why I picked this movie is because I believe that every couple deal with similar problems to the ones in the movie. Terry and Diane
