    In many ways, individuals often struggle against their fears. The time I experienced this was when I used to ride steers a couple summers ago. It was a hot July day and my dad and I had just finished helping my Rodeo queen sister get ready for carrying flags to start off the rodeo. After when we walked over to the stands to get ready for their riding, I was gearing up to ride one of those beasts they call steers, thinking I was going to get killed.…

I was exhausted and now I had to pick up a field full of dog feces.…

    Using natural language to communicate is, for the vast majority of us, something we do every day from a very young age. That said, when we look closely, communication is not without its fair share of hurdles. Indeed, is a fact of human social intercourse that individuals do not always say what they mean, or mean what they say in conversational contexts. In this paper, we will expound upon the issue of implicatures present in human communication, as described by Grice. In addition, we will present two related theories which attempt to elucidate how human beings are able to grasp what others mean with seemingly little effort.…

    I am not talking about driving projects, I am literally talking about driving automobiles. This article is a precursor to what I would soon be writing about in my next article.

    It was a typical Friday, school was off and the temperature was at its highest. At times like this I would stay home to avoid the sun; however, my friends insisted that I must join them for a soccer game and so I did. We used a garage as our field and aligned a few cement bricks to form the goals which we then typically argue about how un-even the alignments were. The sun slowly faded away as night approached so I excused myself and retreated home fearing the consequences of being breaking curfew.…

    In 17 years I’ve experienced many challenges and struggles. I’ve had health scares, friends of mine have died, people I know have tried to seriously injure or hurt me, and sometimes things just didn’t work out in my favor. Bad things happen to everyone, and in my case it wasn’t the events that were the challenge, but how I dealt with them. Looking back, I wasn’t dealing with the those situations in a healthy way. In fact, the biggest barrier in my own happiness, success, and wellbeing has always been myself.…

    I still have nightmares about the week when I didn’t have a phone. In my senior year of highschool, my phone got stolen and it took about a week to get a replacement. That week was the longest week of my life. I found myself actually feeling sad and depressed without my phone, which is quite pathetic. When I would go out with friends, I realized just how much of our “hanging out” time actually consisted of us sitting in the same place, but in different worlds.…

    At three years old, I received an atlas for my birthday. Immediately, it engrossed me. I remember looking at the pages, mesmerized by pictures of places, animals, foods, and people so different from anything I had ever seen. Thinking of myself an explorer, I searched for the tallest mountains, the biggest desserts and imagined living there, much like in the Jungle Book. As I got older, my interest in maps and geography grew.…

    This article is, in my opinion, an example of how personal narrative can sometime confuse the author’s purpose. In order to frame her arguments she discussed her experiences with her family, and specifically how she was born a twin to a stillborn sister. She explains her families lack of coping and how her family effected her life, but I failed to focus on the overarching idea that she wanted to get out because of how distracting the stories from her personal life are. Instead found myself thinking that her story was strangely personal without much justification for why it was this way. While the point of her article, the balance between truth and respect, was somewhat present overall, the sections of personal narrative that she decided to include muddled it.…
