Who is God for you? Ever since I was young, I was taught to go to school and at the end of the night to pray to God. So that’s what I did; I tried my hardest to get good grades in school and pray to God at night. Both of my parents are Christians. In fact most, if not all, of my family are Christians. So I was raised in a Christian household. I’ve been going to a catholic school since first grade. Personally I don’t think my faith is as strong as I want it to be and I never noticed how low my…

As a young, single man living with his mother, who sits in his room on most days, whose biggest responsibility is waking up, and who has become accustomed to silence, I think I know a thing or two about loneliness. I’ve spent a large portion of my time mulling over the thought of loneliness, and how life should be spent with others. My mind is typically occupied by love and tends to live in the future. In the end, all I feel is a longing for a connection between days. However, it is in these…

this determines where we end up eternally. At 50 years of age my beliefs, values, and truth have solidified I know now through many ups and downs with my life experiences, my belief in God gives me hope that the good I see in the world is genuine and the bad I see can work out for good. I know now that though I can thankfully compare my childhood up bringing to some of my favorite childhood television sitcoms that lifestyle was idealized and not the norm and not a reachable standard. Life…

People have events that change their lives every day; it’s not a statement but a fact. When thinking about the events that have shaped and influenced my life, I could only think of one event. The event that changed my life the most was when I almost lost my life because I did not listen to my friends and family. Learning to trust others judgment is vital especially when it comes to medical help. Having a mind open to criticism and advice can ultimately make someone a better person, and when…

When the honeymoon is over sometimes life can get you down. If the person you love has broken the vows that you believed in strongly, it can be hard to bounce back. Although you may be feeling like the world is over, and life cannot possibly go on, I’m here to tell you it can. Life is hard. Marriage is hard. Getting over infidelity is hard, but it is possible. Every situation is different, but these steps might help and if they don’t it might be time to move on. Firstly, if you happen to find…

Denise grabs her water bottle and sits down, leaning her back against the mirrored wall. As she takes a sip of water, Kate sits down next to her and says, “hey” in a friendly tone. “Oh hi,” Denise replies. Kate ignores the distaste in Denise’s voice and says, “good job with the dance today. You choreographed it really well.” Denise murmurs “thank you,” and stands up, taking her water bottle to the other side of the room. Of course Kate just has to be the nice one. Yes Denise worked hard…

Secondly, another poetic device that Kendrick Lamar uses in his song is irony. Irony is when an event occurs in which is unexpected in the sense that it is somehow in mocking opposition in what would be expected or appropriate. When Kendrick Lamar uses irony, it is in a very serious and thought provoking way. For example, in line 63 the speaker says, “Cause you tried to change your life and now you live in a wheelchair.” This line is ironic because it talks about how someone tried to change…

This class has been been one of the more interesting ones I 've taken between the Facebook posts from classmates with different life stories and experiences to some very interesting chapters in the textbook. I really liked that we had one girl that was from a completely different walk of life as an Orthodox Hindu. Sometimes it’s crazy to think that others live an entirely different life with their customs and we all live among each other. It was also nice seeing how good I 've really had things…

, I thought Trudy and I did a very good job being as though that was our second time doing a full session. Before we started filming we both were nervous that we were going to run out of things to say but fortunately we could make it past ten minutes. Trudy and I are friends, so I believe that made us more comfortable in the conversation. We were able to take about her attitude in and out of the class room and also her job and family. There were a few times the conversation got challenging but…

It’s late start and I am sleeping in for the second time in my entire highschool career. When I wake up, I grab my wallet to pay for my breakfast at Mr. Bagel. Down in the kitchen, I put my boots on to leave. Before I could get my foot out the door, I hear my father in the basement moaning in pain. My dad is a construction worker who gets up at four in the morning for work and gets home around five at night. He never misses a day of work, or gets sick. Seeing his car in our driveway at this time…
