As a self-proclaimed outsider, I have always been deeply fascinated with others who were raised in a culture other than the nation of their birth. I believe my status as a Nigerian born immigrant who has spent majority of life in the U.S. makes me a third culture kid (individuals raised in cultures other than his or her parents or the nation of birth), and I have struggled with coming to terms with this status for some time. While struggling with my own identity, I often wonder how others who belong…
course selection sheets I contemplated what I would do for my art credit. Our options were Band, Art Studio, Fine Arts survey, and chorus. I went through options over and over again in my head trying to think of the advantages and disadvantages of all of my choices. I can not draw not do I have an interest in art, so I mentally crossed those two out. I like music, but I can not sing, so chorus was crossed off of my list. Marching band was the most logical choice to me because I have a love for playing…

them. Being able to adapt to the environment allows for a better way for the speech to reach the audience. Also allows for the speaker to decide in what form they wish to present the information. Such as whether to start with a joke, personal story, or ask their audience a question to break the ice. Although, the speakers own personality indicated how the information is shared. The topic that I chose for my formative speech is the Pixar theory. The Pixar Theory is a fan theory that connects all of…
a major challenge presents itself I am able to set back and assess whether or not I am in need of outside help. I am great at advocating for myself in order to make steps towards progress. I allow myself time to understand what I want my end product will or what I need in order to surpass this challenge. After assessing the situation I find myself making well thought out plan/ agenda that will in my opinions produce thoughtful, strategic, and on time results. I find that having a an organized plan…
twenty years of my life, I have never done any volunteer activities for the soceity. Although I have donated money to some of the organisations, I have never joined any activities physically. As in the class Social Ethic: Phil 123C we discussed at the beginning of the semester about “you” and “me”, I always think in term of “me” instead of thinking for the soceity. I want all my free time after school is only dedicated for myself, even if I just doing nothing for a whole day. When I take the class…
and knowing what I wanted to do for a career and with my future. Looking back now, currently as a second semester senior pursuing my bachelor 's degree, I realize how much I have grown and learned. Where I have managed to get myself today academically is a great achievement to myself. I look forward to what further academic exploration could yield. When I started high school I was a terrible student with no drive to learn. I skipped classes, didn’t study, and overall didn’t care. I avoided taking classes…
will be expected of me. If I want to be top of the class I need to be an overachiever. I will commence my journey to success by arriving to class early. If I miss class, I will end up missing valuable information that helps me understand the material. In order to prevent this from occurring, I will leave my home an hour and a half early in order to ensure that I make it on time and receive full credit for the day. From the few days I have been enrolled on the course, I understand that it will be…
1. Winning I want my program to win at every level. The reason that we play the sport is to have fun, and winning truly is fun. However, I also believe that winning is not everything and is not measured just by the score board. I believe that a team that sets good goals can be a “winning team” if they can achieve their goals without winning the game. I think that it is important to teach teams what it feels like to win. Winning is addicting and helps to motivate a team especially in sports.…
I don 't want my mistakes to become the only thing that defines me because I care a lot about you. You think I 'm probably only saying this so that I can get you back but that 's not why. I care a lot about you and with everything you do. I don 't act this way with people unless I 'm in a relationship which is why I 'm not used to all this when the person I like a lot turns around to tell me that they want to slow down. I didn 't mean to come off as a whore to you because that was not my plan. I…
