1. Introduction
Something I didn’t expect myself to say in my entire life was, “I want to be a high school english teacher when I grow up.”.

Without the English teachers, communication would fall apart as people write different from others, which makes it difficult for people to completely understand what they are trying to communicate. Always providing feedback prepares the students for criticism. Of course, most people will understand what is being communicated, yet missing a word could mean the difference between agreeing and disagreeing, which you need to be clear about in the business world. Along with always teaching the new generation to communicate, English teachers also have the benefit of showing students exactly what it is they are looking for and what is not being looked for.

    This is a 90 minute documentary produced by BBC on 7 August 2005 in the United Kingdom, written and directed by Paul Wilmshurst.

This movie can be also a drama or history one, as it touches emotions at specific points regarding the after-effects of the nuclear explosion. In addition, background music keeps changing (when it necessary) from one situation to another, especially while viewing the bomb's descend to the ground, and while telling stories by Japanese survivors after the attack.

    The mind is a garden that requires cultivation, and that is why I aspire to attend a liberal arts college. I fervently believe that liberal arts colleges teach people how to think because they require their students to take courses outside of their intended major. I want to be in an environment that pushes me to think conceptually and without censor. For most of my high school career, it has also been my dream to experience life outside of North Carolina. I have ventured out of North Carolina three times, two of which I was accompanied by familiar faces, but last October I was awarded a travel scholarship to visit Brandeis University just outside of Boston.…

    Senior Year My greatest memory so far in my eighteen years of being on this earth is without a doubt my senior year of high school. It was absolutely unforgettable. My senior year as a whole (which was just last year) was the most fun I’ve ever had in my life and the happiest I have ever been. When I was a chubby little freshman with glasses I thought to myself that high school would be one of the longest time periods of my life and that four years would feel like forty years. But man was I wrong, high school went by in the blink of an eye.…
