I love poems, and I like imagining their meanings, but I think they are not easy to write. When it comes to choosing topics, I would say that it does not matter to me.

Yes he would not be alone, and it will be great to be involved in the march for freedom, but I still did not like the idea. I still feared that there would be guns. So yes, church would be a good idea. In the church, he will not be alone, and there will be no guns. I will have nothing to fear. My son will be in the hands of God. So I said. “You may go to church instead, and sing in the children’s choir”. Little did I know that nature knew better. I guess it was just at a corner giggling, just waiting for the opposite of my expectations to explode on my face, and then laugh. I have no other explanations for it that is why I said it enjoys the

    One paragraph that stood out to me and was especially interesting was paragraph thirteen in CR3 A,” Who’s Cheap.” This paragraph was extremely successful as it summed up the double standard that exists and that is not talked about not enough. Some women still believe that the men should do everything; that there are fixed roles for gender in marriage and in dating. As Cheap stated on page two, “As a woman, you are so genetically precious hat you deserve attention just because you grace the planet. So, of course, he should buy you drinks.…

    Honors committee, As long as I can remember I have sought challenges in academics. Until only recently I didn't know why I pushed myself as hard as I have in school, but now I understand it is because I truly love learning. For me, discovering something new or unknown, teaching myself a new skill, or learning more about the world around me is one of the most gratifying things in my life. This is part of why I think I should be admitted into the honors program here at the University of Iowa.

    compared to the ones in previous decades. It used to be that company rules were enforced to all and followed by everyone, yet now employers understand the constructs between the types of workers and make accommodations for the creative class. Kipp is an example of an employer who saw just how much emphasis the creative class puts on the individual. In order to truly keep the creative class happy and focuses on work, an employer cannot set rules for every member of the creative class and think they can be handled the same way. The work environment today is very different from the work environment in the past because now employers are prepared to listen to the needs and wants of the creative class.…
