I Don't Know

Ten people. I’ve been working here for four months and I only know the names of ten people. Out of every person in the Hamill City Police Department I can only muster up enough brainpower to keep ten names in my head. I can’t blame myself though, I was only supposed to be here a month before I went back to my home in New York, where being a detective doesn’t mean doing crossword puzzles to look busy all day. I came down here four months ago to help with a case, everyone was out of ideas and the…

do not assume to have all the answers. They tend to realize that they need more wisdom as they become wiser. Mature people are never ashamed of seeking counsel from other people. This is due to the understanding that no one knows it all. The most mature person that I know is my father. This based on the decisions that he makes and the way that he carries himself. Among the ways that he demonstrates his maturity is by prioritizing the family needs ahead of his own. Many are the times that my…

Graduation is rapidly approaching and it is time to figure out what I want to do after I leave Texas A&M University and move on to the next step in my life.

Kohn describes the situation by saying, "The horizon never comes any closer" (Kohn, 9). He means no matter how hard you try to find easy ways to get good grades, your intellect abilities would remain the same. I myself didn 't take anything in summer school to fast track anything because I knew I would need certain skills in order to survive in college/university. However, most of my friends did take summer school for English and are currently taking Xyna for other courses such as Physics. Their…

that they fall back on when they have doubts, or when they seek answers to questions that they may not be able to solve otherwise, and I am no different. I was raised in a pseudo-catholic household and I attended a catholic private school up until I went to high school. While most would expect this to shape me to some extent in a religious manner, that is not the case. I could never claim that that specific establishment had no effect on my outcome as an individual, but it did shape me in ways…

a student is having a support system. Having a good support system would help students to always have a good dinner, finish homework at night, go to bed on time, and be ready for the next day. Although some students have a good life style others don’t know where they will be staying from night to night. Addressing these challenges in the classroom can be difficult. Students facing poverty situations can be tired, hungry, and/or dirty. At Junction Hill last year, they purchased a washer and dryer…

Once I start thinking about all of this I start to just imagine all that we are capable of and all that we don’t take advantage of. For some time this quote will leave me wanting to achieve more than I have planned to or wanted to. It has me thinking that I have so much more I can strive…

I don’t think so, I will forgetting a tiny detail of all that day. I had a mix of emotions wondered, exciting, and something happed inside my heart, when I saw a high glass room that 's far from ground is 1,353 feet. the number made me feel a lot of sweat. When I went inside the Willis tower, I made my steps slower than my husband. I thought that day will…

“How Teachers Make Children Hate Reading” is a personal memoir of John Holt’s recollections of being an English teacher.
