1998 albums

I used to think ghosts and the afterlife didn 't exist. Then my cousin died. Now I believe in them. I was never really close to anyone when I was a kid. I used to be shy, made a few friends during school, but at home I’d always be with family or by myself. I wasn’t incredibly close to my siblings either. We would play together and be around each other all the time, but they were older than me and had a lot of their own friends. My cousin on the other hand was the oldest. She was older than all…

Caitlin McCarthy Com101-Interpersonal Communications 3/14/16 The purpose of this paper is to show how I have been using the responding technique that we have talked about in class in my daily life. Some of the response skills that I have been consistently using are paraphrasing, framing and advice. While practicing these skills I have realized that they truly do work. One instance where I utilized a responding technique was during a situation while babysitting. The situation involved the…

A Learning for the Rest of My Life Perhaps one of the most polemic topics in the world is the homosexuality and all of its issues involved between the societies’ agreement. As the racism power, or even stronger, the prejudice against gays has been a hard point to deal with because there is a lot of people with empty minds thinking that being a gay is a huge sin. A few years ago I have witnessed a crucial moment when some guys acted as idiots cussing a homosexual off and I realized how tough it…

The fears I face I face at least one fear a day. My biggest fear would have to be hospitals and needles; sadly I’ve seen a lot of those lately. Learning to face those fears is something that I’ve always had a hard time doing. Doctors tell me that my fear should lessen as I get older but I see it staying the same or getting worse. Fears I feel are something that everyone has. It may be the simple fear of clowns or something serious like dying. I’ve had the same two fears since I started…

People say that Emperor Norton once travelled the streets of San Francisco accompanied by two dogs named Lazarus and Bummer. Back in the late 1800s, dogs were seen as dirty and troubling animals, usually most of them strays and not allowed in the city unless they had an owner and a leash on their neck. On the other hand, according to Malcolm E. Barker’s Bummer and Lazarus: the Truth article, Lazarus and Bummer gained respect from the townsfolk from their expertise of killing rats and their…

It was a cold day in Whitley, Indiana, my birthplace. It was February 21, 1998. A woman by the name of Rhonda Sebert had just gone into the hospital ready to give birth to her second child. Several minutes after noon is when the baby finally arrived. The babies name: Justin Sebert. The parents of this legendary child were Mark Sebert and, of course, Rhonda Sebert. At that time, Justin Was just a little tyke. Arriving into this world at a mere 19 inches and 7.3 pounds. Not too long after…

(1) Currently, I am not too happy with what is going on with my life right now. I am not too happy because I feel somewhat isolated and alone sometimes. I live on campus and I am in a coed fraternity, but I feel that I am not living a “college student’s life” so to speak. I don’t like to “party” and I can be pretty quiet at times, and I feel like that makes me somewhat of an “outcast” from the world. I don’t want to change myself of course, but I sometimes wish people could accept me more for…

Click. Select. “Ava Grossmann” Type: click, click, click, click, click. “Clocked in at 3:27 pm” I Looked up. “Hi, Ava!” “Hey!” “What are you eating?” “A caramel roll, I made them last night”. “I’m surprised you made it to work, since I guess you had to leave the kitchen and the bedroom to make it here.” Stop. Look up. I asked, “how is that funny?” He replied, “Well, Ava you should know…” Stop. Snarky replies flashed across my mind. No. Smile. Turn-around. Walk-away. My…
