The previous summer I achieved my objective weight and celebrated by treating myself to an excursion. Amid the get-away, I ate and drank without restriction, and went all over the place in tubes and taxis. After ten days, I was back home, resembling my old self, and prepared to start a better eating routine to lose every one of the kilos I had placed on in Bangkok. I had lost four kilos and put on six. Since this January, I have begun and restarted abstaining from food no less than eight times…

Keep running. That’s all I tell myself. Watch out. That’s all I keep thinking. Keep your family close. That’s all I wish for. People screeching, babies bawling, I sprinted past my school and took cover by a nearby car. I recall how just last week I baked chocolate chip cookies. It’s unfeasible to think about how the world’s changed. How did this virus even start? Who will stop it? Stop over-thinking. I glance to my left and see my mother crouching beneath a broken advertisement. I gaze at an…

I stood at the end of the line and threw a quick glance over to see what the others were doing. I was shaking like a leaf, from excitement or nerves I do not know. The cafeteria’s floor was cold beneath my feet and the wind was whistling outside the glass doors. A woman in a white outfit, that looked like pajamas, with a black belt around her waist came over to me and showed me what we were doing. After that first day, I begged my mum to let me join the martial arts school. The next day, I went…

Family Ties- “A Pair of Tickets” There are so many different cultures around the world which makes up the very core of who we are as individuals. From the way we speak, dress, our religion and to the food we eat are just a few examples. At times, we can lose our sense of heritage of who we are from the relationships with have with our parents. A disagreement or being embarrassed by our parents can cause someone to totally disconnect themselves from one’s own heritage. In Amy Tan’s short story…

The two articles Agonism in the Acadamy Suriving Higher Learning’s Argument Cluture by Deborah Tannen and The Better for My Foes The role of Opposition by Elouise Bell are both well writien articles. They both have very diffrent views but at the same time have some similaritys. One thing that I noticed when reading that they both talk about heated debate/ agurmnet. When i see those two words togther i think they are similar, as they both result insomething that you are talking about with…

My experience at Balfour Collegiate in Regina, Saskatchewan began much like others. In grade nine I wanted nothing more but to be accepted. I was sincerely lucky in the case that Balfour was one of the smaller schools in Regina, so within time I found my place. How I found my place was involving myself. At the grade nine open house almost every other student stressed, “Get involved! It’s the best way meet people and find your place!” This statement was so true. I never particularly new who I was…

I can say that the experience failure that I had was not a major failure. It was a simple one, but to me it was hard to get over with because I always had a fear of failure. My first experience of failure was when I had my first driving test and coming from a country where women are not allowed to drive made it even harder. So driving was a first time experience to me and all my family said that if I didn’t make it the first time, then it is not a problem because I can always try again. After a…

We 've all heard comments from Employees that this company is not what it used to be in terms of our culture and the overall feel. As you mentioned earlier, in your 30 years here you 've seen some phenomenal growth. It 's simply no longer possible to maintain that small company atmosphere that we once had, now that we have in excess 50,000 Employees. I tell people that culture and the hospitality wheel is their own responsibility. However, what ideas or thoughts do you have that we and our…

In “the allegory of the cave” is about four individuals who are chained by their head, arms, and legs facing a wall, up a long stair way a fire is going and people are walking by caring sculpture. Now the people at in the cave only had this to go by so this what they believe what they thought was real life. One day someone come down and let one of them go but he was reluctant to leave his position, so the men began to push him to feet and up the stair case until they reach the up. The man who…

Edward Hoppers paintings always tell a story. ‘Office at night’ is no different. In the painting created in 1940, Edward Hopper leaves the viewer wondering what truly is going on in the somewhat mysterious situation. While some might only see two people having a regular night in the office, the many clues given in the painting leaves one’s mind wondering – is there something immoral going on? The open window, mysterious lighting, and the facial expressions of both individuals suggest a deeper…
