I Don't Know

My experience at Job Corps has made a great impact on my future because I have had some challenging choices that has prepared me for the real world.

devices used in the book, it’s even used in the title. “ Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” (119). The mockingbird is a symbol for what’s purely good in the world. This quote shows, it’s a sin to destroy the innocence in the world when people don’t have a reason to. Another time in the novel, a literary…

As we delve deeper into our theories on interpersonal communication, we begin to learn more about ourselves and how to interact with the people around us. Whether they are in our lives on a personal, professional or combined capacity. This week I have decided to look at the theories of Interactional View and Genderlect Styles (Griffin, 2015). When we study Interactional View, a theory developed by Paul Watzlawick, we can see how communication has shaped us into the people we are today.…

Technological Syringe The gloomy, haze of light battles its way through my blinds. The coffee machine, like clockwork, begins to brew its glorious liquid. Before I can open my eyes, my alarm clock shouts an angry symphony, directly into my ears. It’s the morning. I turn over, slamming my hand directly on the ‘snooze’ button. Before I know it, I am high. Oh no, this isn’t just a typical drug. This drug has found its way into almost every home in America. This drug ends marriages, causes deaths,…

academic success, this is something I have always struggled at doing. I would find the most simple way of doing something and not get a true full understanding of how it works and is done the right way, I just wanted to get the problem over with. The older I would get my attitude has changed on how I would get ready for a problem, I would try to understand every bit of information I could and as a result I would start doing better in my classes and any other problem I came across. When…

senses as human. People rarely spend times to social outside of homes, they cut off their lives from the reality and try to immerse themselves into a virtually world, one that can collapse easily if there is no Wi-Fi and bandwidth. People need to know that when they are depending on something too much other than themselves, it can never be good for humanity. This is clearly illustrated in the movie Wall E, where people just lying there on their floating chairs, being lazy all day.…

I decided to research gender stereotypes after studying “Pretty Hurts” by Beyonce. The writer raises the issue of how the media tells young women how to act and look if they want to be seen as “perfect”. This made me think about how girls all over the world are constantly trying to be seen as “perfect” and the lengths they go to better themselves. To find out more about how this applies to the real world, I decided to do my research report on this. My hypothesis is: “In today 's society woman…

Reflective Paper I chose to reflect on my persuasive essay on why girls should make the fist move towards guys. My paper was addressed to college aged, heterosexual females. I definitely believe that I selected the right audience. I felt that addressing my paper to all females would have been extremely broad due to the fact that not all females are interested in men. Likewise, I feel like I definitely geared my paper towards my selected audience. I feel like I gave situations that are realistic…

I recently attended a group observation at Project Point of Light in Shippenville, Pennsylvania. The overall experience was a positive one. It was very interesting to talk to the members and hear their sides of the story. They truly are just human beings and I believe that meeting with them and having an opportunity to talk to them has somewhat changed my view of sex offenders overall. Though I am still confused by their behaviors, which is somewhat difficult to overcome, but I am more…
