We were gazing up at the stars, congratulating ourselves on our latest victory for the Wellington Academy Knights. It had been a tough game, my muscles were sore with exhaustion, but burning for more domination. I was startled when Bash stiffened and his tone became serious and quiet while he said, “I need a favor from you. You have to promise me that...if for some reason...I can’t be here for Juliette...you have to promise that you’ll take care of her, for me. It’s just...you’re the only guy I…

of the quote. However, if you follow the above guidelines it’s acceptable in terms of the APA format; and will be considered an acceptable written paper. During the paraphrasing method, the proper way to cite is by mentioning the author to which it was written and the year if using in-text citation; this is usually done at the end of the paraphrasing sentence where you’d place the citation. “Although, in some classes it’s not needed to include the page number; it’s completely up to the…

4. What leadership qualities do you want to develop? Please explain and give details. If I was to truly think about which leadership qualities that I wished to develop, I would have to start with articulating a vision. I do believe goals are one of my strong leadership qualities, articulating a vision is not. I can easily see a goal I need to achieve, but knowing what that goal is working towards is harder for me. There are some cases where I have a vision of what I wish to achieve, usually…

secondary source and if it is written about 100 years later than when the event actually happened. Likewise, the poem cannot be trustworthy if it contains different facts from the primary source written by the person who experienced that moment and who was actually there. Furthermore, as poems use figurative languages that exaggerate things, it is not a good resource. These lead up to the poem “Paul Revere’s Ride” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, which is a secondary source written as a third…

These preconceived notions inhibit us from seeing that creativity can permeate in all classes, rather than stop it beyond english, art, or music class. “On Education” may not apply to schools or education today (it was written in 1789, only fourteen years after the United States was a country), but Elizabeth Bentley’s perception on education seem to be the same ones shared by students today towards science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) related classes at East.

It was the winter of 1933, I lived in a small house just big enough for me and my family. It's located in Portland Oregon, a beautiful town living in the Great Depression. Our house always smells of smoke from the burning of wood and coals we use to keep warm. The smoke of the fire flies over our house and goes with the wind and gust of snow. From the time I was little my mom knew I would be a hard worker. Dad had taught me all of the jobs boys normally do, so I might have a better life. I was…

He lived in Leominster, Massachusetts. Johnny’s first couple of years were hard. His father left the family to fight in the Revolutionary War. His mother and his baby brother both died before his second…

Ever since I was young, I would prefer watching movies to reading books. It was always more exciting seeing a character come to life on the big screen rather than having to conjure one up in my head. Of course there are some exceptions, such as Walt Disney’s film Johnny Tremain, directed by Robert Stevenson. It is difficult for a director to meet an audience’s expectation when creating a book-based movie, while also inputting his own take on the story. Though it is important to add some…

Though he came from humble beginnings, Johnny Cash, born J.R. Cash, rose above his many failures to become a true American success story and living legend. Johnny Cash once said, “You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.” Using this philosophy, Johnny Cash rose to become one of the greatest country music…
