Easily annoyed. That is one of the personality traits that can be a downfall to who I am. I experience this trait in classrooms, volleyball practices and at home. So you may wonder what is it that makes me so “easily annoyed?” I can tell you from the irritated bone in my body that it is when someone asks a lot of questions.
The second I place a footstep in my house I am swarmed with a million questions from my mom about how my day was (she informed me that growing up her mom called her the “Why Child”). “How was your day?” “What is new?” “What did you have for lunch today?” “What do you have for homework?” These are all only a few of the million questions I am asked on the daily. Now don’t get me wrong I love my mom more than life itself, but if she were to minimize her questions to 3 a day I would be a happier girl. Another scenario that bothers me is on the court for volleyball practice. Out of my whole volleyball team I am the least experienced. But would you guess that after watching a practice? No, because you will never hear me

But wait here comes Suzie with so many questions she could write an essay. And yes this is the point where I get annoyed! I get it Suzie is confused, but I’m sorry you can call the teacher over on your own terms not when I’m trying to get my homework done before class is over. Well that is it. My rant is over I will no longer complain. I know these people are unlikely to change and they will keep asking their time consuming questions. And I will continue to sit back, with my mouth shut, and listen to what they have to say. This is not a matter that can be changed and I understand that, so I will try to teach myself how to have a better attitude about

    In the years from 1787 through 1788 a number of papers began to appear that radically changed American government. Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay wrote eighty-five different letters to newspapers that helped ratify the Constitution and create a system of checks and balances for the government that the United States should still follow today. The Framers constructed the Federalist Papers to avoid many of the problems that the American government is facing today such as the Supreme Court infringing the boundaries of the judicial branch by creating their own laws. This violation of the delegation of powers can be seen in the upcoming case that will soon be decided on April 28th, 2015. The goal of this trial is to force every…

    The fact that supreme court justices have a life time tenure is absurd, since it stops the motivation to change and get more new fresh ideas, in addition justices that are too old are endangering the nation with their bad decisions. Some justices have remained on the court for too much time, even when they were mentally mal functioning, which is not acceptable. A good chief justice example is William Douglas who served as a chief justice for almost 37 years, and but that is not the bad thing. What was bad was that he had a stroke, and even after he had a stroke he served for 10 months more before retirement. It was so bad so that even his colleagues had to nullify all of his decisions regarding votes.…

    Learning about the legal environment in the classroom setting can be very interesting and exciting, but seeing a court in action is an entirely new learning experience. During my time spent at the Superior Court of Tolland at Rockville, I had the opportunity to observe multiple components of various court cases. Three cases that specifically stuck out to me were a criminal arraignment, jury selection, and a landlord/tenant dispute. Each of these cases had different elements that allowed me to develop a more comprehensive understanding of the United States legal system. The first case I witnessed was a domestic violence arraignment.…
