When I was little‚ being compared to my older brother Michael was one of the greatest compliments I could get: “You’re becoming quite the artist‚” my mother would say. “Just like Michael.” Michael was smart‚ athletic‚ funny‚ and artistic. Of course being compared to someone like that would fill me with pride. Now‚ I consider it an insult. When somebody compares me to Michael‚ they use it to hurt me: “You’re so lazy‚ just like Michael.” Or even more hurtful “you’re just like Michael”. So what brought

1. What does Danto mean by the End of Art? The end of art is not the death of art‚ but the wholesale elimination of what used to be considered art and its replacement by a new concept: pluralism. When art has exhausted itself and this concept has been brought into the forefront of the consciousness‚ this awareness signals the end of art.

I Overcame To me a growth mindset means you overcome the obstacles. In other words when something gets in the way of your dreams and goals‚ you persevere. You learn from your mistakes and take into consideration how you could have done something differently in order to succeed. This reflection allows for growth. Defeat doesn’t discourage you. Instead‚ it pushes you to do better next time. When I was in fifth grade I suffered a major concussion that put me out of school for most

As far back as I can remember I have always loved horses. As soon as I knew they existed my infatuation began. Growing up I was always reading the ‘Ponies!’ magazines‚ collecting Schleich horses‚ filling my shelves up with horse books and hanging posters of horses around my room‚ which was most likely to

before being deployed has finally arrived. I wanted to do something exciting‚ extreme - something I never would have imagined doing before – something that would take a lot of heart to do. Maybe even could be called a little crazy as others told me. Skydiving was something I had never done and certainly had never thought of doing until now. After doing some research online‚ I found a place only an hour away from home in Lumberton‚ Mississippi. In a way I was hoping there wouldn’t be a place local

I never thought I’d be an All American. After losing my “sure thing” state finals match‚ I didn’t think I would ever achieve the title. The loss was a shock after going 38-1 on the regular season with my only loss stemming from a shoulder injury early in a match. I wrestled my way through states with pins‚ one over opponent who beat me the year earlier‚ up to face the Chilhowie senior in the finals. I had a three point lead in the first period before I‚ in non-wrestler vernacular‚ screwed the pooch

Ogden Nash’s poem‚ "I do‚ I will‚ I have" is about the formal union of a man and a women. It’s usually recognized by the law in which they become husband and wife. In other words‚ it’s a poem about a marriage. He’s describing the way a marriage works. I think many people could agree or disagree with his views‚ however‚ he outlines the basics to a marriage. Without describing his poem line from line‚ the overall purpose of this poem is to point out that marriages are always different. Typically

unprepared I shall never forget the first time I got bad marks when I was in grade 11. A day before the geography’s test‚ I attend my friend’s birthday party. I had a lot of fun at the party and I came back home so late. After having a warm bath‚ I was tired and felt too sleepy. I still remembered my geography’s test but I could not open my eyes to learn. I promised to myself that I would learn it early in the morning before going to school. But I could not image I wake up too late to study. I went

Then I heard a door open and more feet shuffling into our quiet home. “Police‚” said an unknown voice‚ so loud and so clear. “Put your hands up in the air and get down on the floor.” My mother moved to obey the order. More feet were moving about. Voices were talking above voices. Someone asked my mother a question. As I listened‚ I heard the
