I managed to reach a point where I began making false promises to myself and others about addressing my situation. Among those empty promises was the one where I claimed I would give up drinking, attend rehab and try to get my life back on track. I even fiddled with the thought of seeking inpatient assistance if things weren't working as planned. Let's be clear and fair.…
I would like to believe that I learned my personal ethics from my family more importantly my parents. Growing up my parents thought me many things that had several messages attached to them. Those messages I now use on a daily basis most importantly in my career. One of the ethics that I could remember is to be caring and loyal friend, neighbor, family, or co-worker. Having these two ethicses has guided me to the field of psychology and is still helping me.…
I'm interested in becoming a Wilcox Confessions admin because since I'm already an officer in Key Club, I want to try something that isn't a officer type of thing and being an admin for this page give me the opportunities to do it. I want to learn the different between an admin of a page and an officer in a club. Maybe homework or tests, other than that, I don't have any activities that might impact my ability to post confessions on weeknights. We would prevent it before it got publish into the Facebook page. When we check the confessions, we would leave those out so that it wouldn't upset anyone.…
Though I was not able to put all of my attention to school until junior year, I kicked it into high gear as soon as I could. Despite all my hard work, I was unable to find myself a place in the top 10%. This has hurt my appearance to colleges, but I hope that with these explanations of what I had to go through freshman and sophomore year, my position will be slightly more understandable. Engineering honors is the best thing for my future and everything I want to do with my life. Honors will help me grow as a student, so I can be a better employee and will help me grow as a person.…
“Call 911!” I heard my aunt yell. Those days, July 31 through August 2, 2014, were interesting days. My laws of life were shown. They are faith, and patience.…
The location I choose to perform my violation of a culture norm was at the cafeteria. I used the cafeteria that is in the Gordon student center. After trying to decide which cultural norm to experiment with, I choose to invade someone else's personal space. The plan I created was going up to someone in the cafeteria, and intentional sitting close to the person to invasion his personal space. Have no communication between us so the interaction would be silence.…
In my experiment I created my own violation of a norm. For the experiment I screamed in a Dillons grocery store. There was only a couple of people near me when I did this. One girl just looked at me weird and then looked away. The guy down the aisle from me started to run.…
Who am I? This question has been on my mind lately. Just to think about it, brings me feelings of a doubt and uneasiness. Many times I was told that it is impossible to figure out what is behind my defiant and troublesome face. Also I had a chance to hear that same face is like the mask, hiding the real me beneath of it.…
At a younger age, I would say I believed that I can only trust myself and my mother, this is because as a little kid my mom would always tell me that there are bad people in the world and that giving them any information about anything can be very harmful. But as I grew up and realized what was actually happening in my country I knew there were millions of others that were suffering against the “bad people” and we could only do something about it if the whole community came together to help. It was at that time when I was about 25, when I started to put some effort into trying to establish more just conditions within my country especially after the implication of extremely high food prices. This is when I started my first strike involving my…
A good argument should have premises as they help in supporting the writer’s claim by identifying the reasons the writer thinks his or her argument is valid. The process of analyzing arguments does not only require the identification of premises and conclusions but also identifying the premises and conclusions that the writer…
It is common for arguments to have bad logic or unsound premises, these are called fallacious arguments. Many of these arguments may seem to make sense at first, but when you take a deeper look into them you will realize that they really don’t. In this essay, I am going to analyze different fallacious arguments and then give them what they need to be stronger arguments while simultaneously trying to connect the bridge between chihuahua and dog. One type of fallacious argument is called begging the question. This happens when the truth of the argument is presupposed in the premises.…
Maybe ignorance is bliss for a day. I can close my eyes and breathe in the heavy scent of the pungent stench of manila bay and pretend even just for a day that I am safe, that we are safe, that I can stand in front of this bay and commute and I will be safe, that I can trust the streets to keep me unharmed, that there are good days and bad days but life is as beautiful as ever, but reality is a burden you can’t un-see, and although there are holes and faults, taking comfort in the safety of those alive at the expense of 4 percent of innocents would never ease my mind. There are many problems I have dealt with in the process of growing up, they range from inconsequential ones such as my indecisiveness with simple things such as which to order to arguments with…

My junior year of high school was in my mind full of injustices, some petty, some not at all. There were a few standouts, one regarding some of my best friends betraying me completely and lying to get themselves out of any trouble with the police. Another, being forced by my english teacher on the fourth day of school to rewrite an essay that was in my mind amazing just because she didn’t like my style. And then there was getting a yellow card in soccer for getting into a little skirmish with a kid who slide tackled me from behind. Perhaps dwelling or complaining about this injustice of getting a yellow card is petty and in the referee’s mind was completely justified but in my mind it was and is absurd.…
