Decent Essays
Hello, here are some reasons why I think you should let me get a Leopard Gecko. I understand you are tired of me mentioning Leopard Gecko’s. The reason I keep talking about them is for one really big reason, I want one. You might think ‘Oh he isn’t going to take care of it’ or ‘It’s too smelly and you will lose it’. So to prove that I am responsible I will write a little on each topic you keep bringing up. Some topics I will bring up are; The amount of money it cost, Being responsible, and last but not least the smell. Lets jump right in then. A leo(referencing to the gecko) is really picky and needs certain things. The total cost of all the stuff I need for the leo, including the leo, is about $180. I know you are probably thinking

    Molly Bang Paper When thinking of this assignment, I immediately knew which book I was going to choose. I felt that choosing a favorite book from my childhood could be a fun way to see the differences in how I viewed it then, and how I might view it today. As a child, I was in love with Mercer Mayer’s “Little Critter” books (and still am today). I decided not to go searching for an easy or popular book, rather I wanted to take one I know and love and see if/how Molly Bang’s principles were applied.…

    From the three biomimicry technologies currently in progress of being developed, my favorite is the Gecko Gripper because of its high efficiency potential. First, it makes the problem of astronauts trying to stick items together a lot easier. Currently, they use Velcro which has many problems such as needing both sides to have Velcro in order to stick and loose fibers creating debris in space. The Gecko Gripper would be able to stick to any hard surface regardless of the material and uses Van der Waals force to create tinier material fixing the issue of the loose fibers.…

    The British also began seizing American ships and demanded that all American vessels had to check in at British ports before they could trade with any other nation. Historians tend to agree with the Americans; of the approximately ten thousand men captured from American ships, only about a thousand were actually British citizens. Britain claimed the right to board American ships and take into custody men who were thought to be deserters from the British navy. The British boarded the Chesapeake and seized four men, only one of whom was actually British.…

    Individuality is the quality of a particular person that distinguishes them from others. Often times in the world, we are forced to give up our individuality and conform with others. In Logan Fey’s article, The Sociology of Leopard Man, he claims that to be a human is to be an individual human, with individual tastes, talents, morals, etc. I agree with Fey, that being human is to be an individual, but some of our traits have been influenced by other people, or sometimes we are forced to give up our individuality for certain things, but we all must find our own way of living as ourselves content in society. Being an individual human means that one develops their own personality, attributes, tastes, goals, talents, and morals.…

    The ending of The Leopard Tree by Tim Merriman and Lisa Brochu was heartbreaking, yet hopeful for the future. Although Daudi’s death cast a melancholy shadow over the joy of the book, the conclusion seemed rushed, and not fully developed compared to the rest of the book. I did like Rosa’s quote about Daudi being “home”, but I did not like Masozi’s and Ramla’s reaction to Daudi’s demise. They did not seem as depressed as they should have been.…

    My options were to get rid of it, pay $350, or to give it to a friend. Considering that $350 is about half of my savings, paying so much for a pet is not smart. I went with giving the pet to a friend because I don’t have to pay the expensive fee for it and I don’t have to send it to a shelter where they might not take care of it as well as the friend might do. Another hard decision I had to make was when some person came up to me and asked if I want to join a union to get a raise in money.…

It takes over the average teenager's mind, so they choose to conform to the popular trends and fashion; therefore, they lose sight of what should mean the most, being themselves. How can we be our self without being called weird, stupid, freak and etc. When it comes to the topic of conformity most of us will readily agree that we want to be different instead of being who isn’t you. Many of us would give up our uniqueness, extraordinary distinctiveness, just to fit in a group.…

    Leopard Man In his article, “The Sociology of Leopard Man,” Logan Feys believes that people that do not conform to society are freaks. Feys supports his belief through the use of pathos. Feys purpose is to satirize people who do not conform, in order to convince the audience that non-conformist are “freaks,” Fey uses pessimism with his intended audience. While I generally agree with Logan Fey’s statement about individuality, I found some of his positions to be quite extreme.…

    Inquiry Paper “Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so lightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners.” ~ Virginia Woolf. For a spider the web is the key part of her existence, spun through individual silk, piece by piece it eventually connects together to form a web that provides life for the spider, a new start. Though weaved with care it does have its limitations in strength, weak and miniature bugs will get caught, but the powerful and big will destroy the web. Incidentally, while reading Michael Ondaatje’s “In the Skin of a Lion”, Paulo Coelho’s “The winner stands alone”, I begin to question what the purpose in reading is?…

    Topic: Adopting and Rescuing Animals Specific Purpose: To persuade my effective speaking class the benefits of adopting a pet over buying one from a breeder or pet store. Central Idea: Adopting animals and rescuing is much more beneficial than buying an animal from a pet store because you won’t be unknowingly or knowingly supporting a puppy mill, you will be saving an animal’s life, and you will feel better overall in the end about rescuing your new pet rather than buying. INTRODUCTION Attention-Getter: According to Humane Society of the United States organization’s website I accessed on December 6, 2016, “Each year, 2.7 million adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized in the United States, simply because too many pets come into shelters and…
