Crippling fear of the unknown accompanied by the feeling of being in a pit full of water barely able to keep my head above the water. This is how I would describe the condition that has been a part of my life since before I knew that mental illnesses weren’t limited to schizophrenia. Long before I could even imagine all the predicaments I would go through during the years that were yet to come. A feeling of utter hopelessness made way for thoughts that no nine year old child should have. As…

It was five months ago, that I first saw you. I had a long day and had decided to eat my lunch in the park that day. It was just random decision that to this day, I don 't regret. I was sitting on one of the benches across the way, just about done with my food when something caught my eye. The scorching sun was shining down on the whole plaza, its rays reflecting off a silver watch, making it glint in the sunlight. I was squinting my eyes in its direction and when my eyes adjusted, I was able to…

5. What percent is your internal locus and what percent is your external locus? My internal locust is 61% and my external locust is 36%. a. Describe a situation where you felt you had control over an event in your life. Being able to control my life is important to me because I want to make decision that will help me, not hurt me. When I play video games, I have complete control over what I am doing in the game, and what I’m doing in real life. Another instance where I had control…

“What makes you different from everyone else?” I’ve heard this question repeatedly throughout my life, whether it was from a teacher, or a job interviewer, or even a friend of mine. It’s the type of question people ask in order to get an idea of who you are, and find out what exactly there is about you that makes you special. When I was younger, I would hear this question asked either on television, or in a conversation between older people, and all I can remember thinking was “what’s the point…

Mindy Kaling is Concerned I have an exceptionally limited list of TV shows that I actually enjoy watching, but The Office is definitely on that list. Along with favorite TV shows comes with favorite characters from that certain show. One of my favorite characters happens to be Kelly Kapoor, played by Mindy Kaling. In her comedic autobiography, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns), she explains how she got into the world of show business, being a comedic writer and performer,…

They are lurking in the world we live in. Many hidden or even unknown. Many of us do not even know what one is, despite the threats some hold to innocent human beings. Cults. We must strive to raise awareness of harmful cults in our society. Harmful cults have the ability to take away basic human rights and brainwash people to such an extent that they begin to believe what they are doing will make them a better person and improve their lives. Everyone would like a chance at a new life, right?,…

“God Damnit Kendrick you did it again” Noah said with my headphones on listening to “To Pimp a Butterfly” for the first time with Alexis and I in our third period rotation class. The moment that had the most impact on me was meeting Alexis and Noah. This happened when I was in seventh grade and we all had the same third period which was rotation. I had sat next to Noah as we have last names that all close alphabetically. While the first few days we did not talk as we did not know each other but…

I was recently having a conversation with a friend of mind who is much older. She got involved with a gentleman in which after being in a "relationship" for a few weeks they broke up. She was shocked to find that only a few weeks after breaking up with her that he was in a "relationship" with someone else. This was mind blowing to her because she is like me in many ways. She just does not jump into a relationship easily. For myself, I think I have had about 2 boyfriends in my life. Both…

Henry Thoreau and Ralph Emerson both present strong morals in their essays. Thoreau completely cuts himself off from society for two years. In these two years he learned that people are too materialistic, and believes people do not understand what is truly important. He thinks that we are living how society tells us too rather than understanding what we are actually doing. While Emerson never completely disconnected from civilization, he also conveys ideas about the importance of not being a…

"Hi you all know me I am Luke Hemmings from five seconds of summer. Today we are going on our first show in San Diego California hope to see you there" I say while posting the video onto Instagram. The long tiresome bumpy ride to San Diego was horrible I must admit. And we still have 3 hours left on this bus. I peer outside the window and I could tell it was going to rain. Groaning I walk to the kitchen part of the tour bus and see my band mate Ashton. "What's wrong mate" ashton says. It's gonna…
