One of the most memorable marching shows I experienced in person was RCC’s 2015 field show titled “Land of Make Believe”.

I have always wanted to do something good for my community as my career. I have found throughout the years that being firefighter would be the best way.

    Reflection On Where I Lived And What I Live For

    I see myself in Walden because I have realized, upon reflection, that my conclusions from facing the meanness of life mirror Thoreau’s conclusions in Walden. In “Where I Lived, and What I Lived For”, Thoreau explains his motives for the unorthodox move to Walden Pond. Thoreau went into the woods to “drive life into a corner”, “live deliberately” and “publish the whole and genuine meanness of it [life]” (74). With these goals in mind, Thoreau entered an environment with obstacles requiring him to get the meanness of life. For example, by removing himself from society, Thoreau experienced how humans must managed economy of “Food, Shelter, Clothing, and Fuel” to live (10).…
