True Colors Survey Review: My results were 8 orange, 14 gold, 11 blue, 17 green. Interestingly, I took this survey about 4 years ago and my results said I was a Blue-Orange person and for the most part the more recent results are more accurate of who I am today. Years ago, I used to be a more eccentric, outgoing, and extroverted person. Today I have matured and balanced it for the better in my opinion. While I had a knack for learning and understanding things, I was also a cocky, annoying, and arrogant person who thought I was above many people, but at the same time I was also a nice guy who loved to help people and was very compassionate (and when I look back on it I’m still surprised at why I made so many friends and was “popular”).

Today, I try to look at things objectively, without bias, at the facts and data, and base my opinions on those things instead of quick judgement and brash emotions. I do agree I share most of the traits of being a “green” when it comes to knowledge and understanding, but it is definitely balanced by the

In conclusion, I’m definitely more of a “green” nowadays as I prefer to discuss ideas, problems and their solutions, about the abstract, philosophies, etc..., whereas, I know that most people like to talk about themselves, their day, and the things they do. I definitely relate to most of the things the list says that “greens” are like.

However, as a student, I think where I’m at now is a balance that can always be improved upon, and for the most part I can adapt and adjust to all situations, but by default I agree I’m primarily “green,” and secondarily “gold” when it comes to how I prefer to learn and

    It’s Not Always About Colour was written on February 5 2005 in Toronto by Morgan Campbell, who was in the “white” school system for 13 years in Mississauga, the article is about how black students approach their education. He said that it wasn't racism that contributed to their bad grades it was their attitude. The author also said that many were peer pressured and bullied into thinking that if they did well that were “whitewashed” or forced to choose between good grades or ethnic identity. It’s sad that at that time if you were black you weren't expected to have good grades when everyone should be expected of the same thing.…

    When I first signed up for color guard, I was just following the lead of my older sister who was also doing it. Thinking this was going to be an easy experience I soon realized that it was nothing how I thought it was going to be. By experiencing the practices and how much time and effort goes into it gained a new respect for my sister for sticking with this because honestly, she was known for being lazy. After getting to feel this amazing feeling after my first performance, color guard also became a passion of mine. Color guard is can be found in most middle schools, high schools and universities.…

Alongside that I have also given my best effort to try and see things from other perspectives. There is always another way to look at life and all of its bits and pieces and I love challenging myself to do so. Frankly however, it is far from easy.…

    Environmental Concerns “Should Environmentalists Continue to Be Alarmists?” When it comes to environmental concerns there is always going to be those that tend to care beyond the call of duty, just enough, or not all. Usually, how information is presented and the timing of when it is announced by an Environmentalist can affect how the overall population reacts to the news. It can change their perception of how much each individual will continue to care or not to care for the environment. If for example an Environmentalist made an announcement that a specific area was running out of fresh drinking water during a really bad drought then I would think everyone would be on board to conserve their water resources.…

    Paragraph 2 The totalitarianism of the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany were attempts to hold off and reject the beliefs and values of liberalism, a turning away from the worth of the individual and the principle of a collective, all-powerful state where individuals served the interests of the state. Totalitarian rule seeks the total, unconditional, control of a disenfranchised population and the society is ruled by force, not by consent. It eradicates political freedoms, democratic process and legality as such, by setting up the daily pronouncements of the ruler and the party as an omnipotent force with unchecked powers to exercise control over the institutions of the state. Totalitarian regimes began in Europe and were characterized by leaders…
