    A wise man by the name of Mortimer Alder once said, “The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing as we continue to live.” We never outgrow the ability to learn, so we should continue to strive to learn something new daily. During the past semester while taking Composition II, I learned a myriad of things that are going to help me in my future such as how to properly cite in MLA format, how to not plagiarize, and how to become more organized. Before this class, I never knew the right way to write MLA format papers or cite.

However, adolescents and teens are somewhat different than the adult population in that they are experiencing growth and development at a variety of different levels such as physical, cognitive, spiritual, and self-image. Because of this, the therapeutic intervention used as well as how the counselor approaches this age group will need to be handled with care.…

    Editor vs. Mental Health Counselor When I was young, I had the dream of being a veterinarian. I was passionate about the well-being of animals, and was told I could be anything I wanted to be if I just believed in it.

After doing research on many careers that I am interested in, I have deduced that either a career as an editor or a mental health counselor would be fitting for me. Work environments, education levels and skills, and tasks are completely different between editors and mental health counselors.…

    Always being fond of science and problem solving, I considered entering the fields of biology or engineering. However, it took two life events to acknowledge medicine as my calling. Seeing my mother’s 20 year struggle with rheumatoid arthritis showed me the hidden, dispiriting side of medicine; the one where both patient and physician are frustrated with incorrect diagnoses, incompetent treatment and impossible hurdles that must be conquered. Instead of repelling me from entering the field, I used my mother’s struggle as the impetus to become a phenomenal physician so my patients can receive the best care I can offer. Innate social consciousness creates a desire in humans to help others, improve our communities and homelands.…

    What my dog has taught me Humans are basically social animals, and in learning to coexist more peacefully, our pets could teach us a thing or two.

Having been a dog owner since the age of nine, I can claim that a lot of growing and maturing goes on during that timeframe. Pets have this ability to teach people things that even humans cannot.…
