teammates and I face our intimidating opponents‚ swallowing the defeat we have already accepted. Our game is field hockey and our school has not had a winning record since 2012. It is a challenge to only be known as the team that is easily vanquished‚ but still‚ we persist on throughout the season. Practicing every day with only eleven players‚ trying to surpass our team’s stereotype‚ but not improving at the rate necessary to be evenly matched with our rivals.

Some things I have learned in college this year‚ it has been lit and laid back. Not what a normal college student would say I agree. There’s been days I regret that I stayed up way to late hanging with the boys doing what college kids normally do. But you can’t go wrong with a couple of beer and blunt or two‚ to help kick off with the next day‚ right? I go to class‚ never missed a day make decent grades‚ and put forth my effort and strive for the best. Speaking of that‚ striving is excellent in the

I always learned in high school that an essay only consisted of an introduction‚ body‚ and conclusion. There was no room for creativity‚ subjunctive writing‚ or free-thinking. As my favorite YouTuber always says‚ “If you are doing what everyone else is doing‚ you are doing it wrong” (Neistat). Through writing various papers in this class‚ I have learned that my voice as a writer is not limited to the standard academic paper. My biggest opportunity to show my voice was through the peer editing process

Throughout my freshman year at ACIT‚ I have learned a lot about myself. In the beginning of the year‚ I was a horrible writer and didn’t enjoy writing at all. Now‚ we are at the end of the year and I think I’m a somewhat decent writer and I actually don’t mind writing as much.

I also now know it’s good to include a quote in your paragraphs and

I signed up to fight in the war because everybody else was‚ because it was an expectation of us men to defend our mother country and do what was considered right‚ justified and brave. Honestly‚ I didn’t know what to expect of our coming battles‚ but I certainly wasn’t afraid‚ too naïve to understand the risks I was facing. War is not all it is said to be. We soldiers were told it was to fight for our honour‚ nobility and home‚ but none of that mattered in the midst of battle. War is about bloodshed

Being a parent is the hardest job‚ they say. I believe‚ that being a mother is the hardest one in Italy. In the past‚ gender inequality in the workforce has always characterized this country. Women never had the same job opportunities as men‚ because females were seen as the ones who have to stay at home and take care of the family‚ therefore only males used to get higher school degrees in order for them to get a better work. However‚ now it is very common for both parents to have a job‚ to contribute

The allegory goes that there are prisoners kept in a deep underground cave. They are chained so that all they can view is the back wall of the cave- they cannot see behind them‚ or even each other. They have been like this all their lives. On the back wall passes a constant stream of shadows that the prisoners can see but the prisoners cannot identify the causes of shadows. The shadows are caused by people carrying cardboard cut outs walking back and forth behind the prisoners. The fire between the
