He watched with passive intrigue as giant sweat droplets fell to earth. Each one making a crater in the previously undisturbed soil carpeting the seldom used trail leading up to the Burbank overlook. He wanted nothing more than to feel the wind blow across his puffy face when he got to the top.…

    A fourth emerging theme I present in this paper is my identification of what I am calling “leadership straddler’s.” I use a study by Prudence Carter (2006) that desired to challenge the findings by Fordham and Ogbu’s (1986) proposed “acting white” theory by black students in regards to educational performance in schools to inform my idea. Carter focused on how both black and Latino low-socioeconomic (SES) students navigate performance in the classroom juxtapose with peer group interaction.

I would hear her laugh because our laughs were identical, and small details we shared would remind me of the relationship I was missing, the relationship I felt everyone took advantage of. During my senior year all hope of a possible reconciliation would be lost.…

    The most valued lesson I got from this was to appreciate every moment and the memories you get to make with your family. These are the only things that will be kept after they are gone forever. Also I believe that if you don’t value this kind of small stuff that in reality means a lot then you are not really living life to the fullest. Appreciation towards my family will be something I show to them from now until GOD decides that it’s time to leave this earth. I believe that GOD has a plan for everyone in this life and once we accomplish that plan he wants us back with him.…
