By the Way

have to totally disagree with the way technology and surveillance are going to be approached. One of the main reasons would be because more than likely you would be “looked at” from the camera’s point of view from the way you dressed, physical traits, and even possibly the color of skin. To which I strongly disagree, no one should be more scrutinized while on the street just because of their appearance. I think that should be considered racism to a certain…

role as the Chairman is to approve and pay bills such as payroll and equipment the department needs. He also has to talk with the fire chief about issues regarding the firemen and the residents who live within the township radius. Jason has found a way to juggle his two businesses and his responsibilities to the township of Springport on top of finding time to be a great mentor to…

Leadership is never just one way, it changes is every aspect. One day it can be following and learning while still providing direction. Others days it may be doing nothing more than over whelming subordinates and watching them learn. Strong leaders have the ability to cause the change or be the one getting changed themselves. This is best described by walking up and down a staircase. You can have a slow and steady climb and only deal with one task at a time. Being very boring. Or you can climb…

High school for me is very different then the college life that I have experienced so far. In high school there is so much judgement by the things you wear, who you talk to, and the things you do. But in college no one really cares there isn’t time to judge people it doesn’t matter to them. High school could be super brutal to some people because they don’t fit in they aren’t the typical student and others make sure that they know it. I feel that in college there is so many different types of…

“Go north of St. Helens, no turns, just follow the satin flowers’ I read the remaining guidelines and proceeded as I made my way outside the discarded forest. The time was specifically 10:45, you could tell by the decreasing temperature that it was late, I glanced some more over the crinkled piece of paper ‘there will be an unoccupied vehicle approximately 300 meters from the north entrance from where you exited” I scanned around until my eyes fell upon a black tented 1963 Chevrolet Corvette…

has manipulated us to think the way it does through things such as social media. Posting images of skinny, size zero woman saying body goals or woman who have been photo-shopped with layers of makeup saying, this is beauty. As the images get faker and faker, people are trying to change. By the age of 10 three quarters of girls want to change the way the look, especially their weight. This is not right. We as individuals should not be ashamed of our bodies of the way…

each other really made me feel like they were a family in a way something that my family does on a day to day basis which is helping me to succeeded in life. With support and cultural beliefs it allows anyone to feel that their is no need to fear and you can feel comfortable to be yourself no matter your social location in society just to be open to being yourself. The experience was a good for me to observe, and understand the different ways people go through their addict and for the ones that…

person shattered by extreme trauma who has haphazardly put himself back together. The abusive treatment he underwent at the hands of his former mentor has left a lot of very deep wounds, not all of which have healed with the passage of time. In some ways, he's still mentally stuck in the time he spent under his mentor, not quite able to move on. He is a rather chaotic person and, frankly, a bit of a…

of bread cradled in his arm like a running back running a football. Donny bolts through the busy sidewalks filled with people. The officer continues behind him and radios in but is slowly losing track. “We have a 10-43 requesting backup on Yawkey way.” Donny has a 100 foot gap on the enervated officer. Donny reaches the street corner and makes the split-second decision to turn the corner only to collide with an ongoing pedestrian. They both collide hard and fall to the ground. It takes a few…

I hate writing about myself. It’s typical, but it’s true. I always try to bend the rules to write about anything else. So when I saw this prompt, I had no idea what to write about. At first it was just that I didn’t want to write about things from my past, especially unpleasant things. However, I soon realised that the problem with this paper was that I wasn’t over most of my struggles—or rather, I wasn’t in a position to write about them well. I sat down and thought about what I could possibly…
