I Do

First and foremost, I want to be accepted into the graduate program here at UCM. I was homeschooled up until college and there are positives and negatives to that decision; however, one positive for sure would be that I was able to take college courses my senior year, which enabled me to have a head start in college. Originally I was a communications major, which I did not really enjoy; therefore, I tried to get through the program as quickly as possible, which led to me take summer classes each…

I just love to read, I read every chance I get. My boss, and wife try to keep me from reading, but I always find a way. One day my wife and I were going to play cards at a friends house, I went to change my shirt like she told me too, and I snuck a book into my pocket to read later in the night. But my wife found it, and as I tried to play it off as how did that get in there? My wife got angry, which caused her to rip the pages out. Oh my poor book! why does my wife hurt me this way? Out one…

I feel sad. Well, I wouldn’t say sad, more of down but not blue. It’s something I can’t put description into but either way I’m tired from and of it. It’s not unbearable or pushing me to suicide, nothing like that. I feel unmotivated, lost, as if I’m not grounded from the world and my body just kind of aimlessly floats around the planet with nothing to give or receive. I can still be happy and feel other emotions, don’t get me wrong, just once I no longer have a distraction time freezes and the…

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to wake up and not know where you are or who you are? At the beginning of this book, Cady wakes up on a cement basement floor in a cabin overhearing two men talk about finishing her off. One man leaves while Cady knocks the other out with a rock. Cady drives away in the unknown car in the driveway, hopefully heading into town. She stops at Newberry Ranch Security, where she tries to figure things out but only finds herself in a dangerous situation. She…

1. I chose 5 as to what extent I enjoy reading. I chose five because I like to read books that relate to me, are interesting, and end with cliffhangers. I have been reading ever since I was young. Yet, I have not always enjoyed reading because some of the story I have read just didn’t make sense and the author stumped me. People learn in different ways. I am a visual learner so I learn best when I am able to see how I need to solve the problem. So whenever I read I just couldn’t understand what…

What do i need to do to become a man? It 's a question that all young men throughout history have asked themselves. For me it 's been a little different than what others may say, because my parents were divorced when i was really young so although I have a great relationship with my father (whom most men learn how to be a man from). I spent less time with him so I learned alot from outside sources such as my mother, clubs, sports, and other family. I also believe that most if not all that i say…

.. Why do I wrestle?” Then they say, “Wrestling is so gay.” My answer to that question always seems to be, “I don't know. Why do you play with balls?” But, to be honest, I don't really know why I wrestle. I mean, rolling around a mat with sweaty guys isn't exactly my idea of what I call fun, and imagine after all of that you lose. That's just a lose, lose situation. The only win, win situation is when you win by either disqualification or default. Maybe I’m overreacting, but that’s how I see…

Racial Prejudice as a Means of Violence “My people, my people, what can I say; say what I can. I saw it but didn’t believe it; I didn’t believe what I saw. Are we gonna live together? Together are we gonna live?” -Mister Senor Love Daddy Spike Lee’s film Do the Right Thing is a masterpiece in that it captures both the love and hate eminent in a community at the very end of the 80’s era. New York is already known as the melting pot center of the U.S, it is diverse and that is a part of why it is…

stop. What do you want to do with your life is another question that never fails to pop up. Many people think about it every day and right now I am thinking about it also. What is there to do? Where do I want to go? It can be a stressful time, trying to figure out what you want to do for the rest of your life. It is a step that has to be made after high school and sometimes it doesn’t come easy to everyone. Some may know what they want to do but later change their mind while some do not know…
