week of her move to my dorm. We separated after spring semester’s conclusion and happily reunited in the fall. Natalie’s magnetism blinded me from the deleterious aspects of her personality and our friendship. I consistently disregarded my relatives’ and other friends’ disapproval and defended Natalie and our friendship. Denial of her toxicity persisted until I grew cognizant of the truth. The conspicuity and severity of her ornery…
Reflection Paper 1- Manifest Destiny Within the following are my analysis of both McKinley’s Philippines speech and Rudyard Kipling’s poem “The White Man’s Burden”. I have provided my interpretations of both sources as well as my opinions of their meanings and effect on us as a nation and society.

Aspiration is one of the most central themes in The Cookbook Collector and The Great Gatsby. In The Cookbook Collector George, the “Microsoft millionaire” lives in a mansion “the fireplace was manorial and the staircase turned and turned” he appears to have…
day to day life of anyone is significantly insignificant when compared to the world, but how I see it, the world is insignificantly significant to my day to day life. How I have lived my life is the recurring theme of meshing many ideas together to create a well balanced, complex opinion that is coherent yet complicated. My outlook on life has changed significantly within the last 4 years of my life, and because of this, I have become a more rounded person. But the hot question: what are my long…
“If today were the last day of your life would you want to do what you are about to do today?” In my context of life the above question determines whether a man is successful or not. I believe to achieve success; we need to love what we do. I always wanted to be successful in every stage of my life so I decided to do what I love. During my schooling I was able to develop good problem solving skills, a natural sense of logic, which secured me a place in GITAM University, one among…
wish I could write about the Gines Vivancos who stars in my dreams and fantasies. If only my name could consist of my name followed by terms such as athlete, master worker, champion, genius, and prince charming. Sadly, these claims would be quite inaccurate. My dreams, however, take their place alongside my memories, my experiences, and my aspirations of who I am and want to be. Who am I? I am a product of all the decisions I have taken in my life. Nevertheless, I am still in the process of…
those who doubt your abilities or the dream itself. The only aspirations accepted by others are the ones deemed ‘plausible’, whatever that means. If one’s goal is ‘reachable’ there’s no need to put them down for it, right? If one’s goal is easily obtainable then they’ll ‘win’. “Everybody loves a winner,” afterall. Being a musical theatre pursuer, especially, will get you laughed at as soon as you reveal that’s what you want to do with your life. Passion for the arts is so scorned for some…
Criminology and Law because this is a degree that can develop a critical and focused mind. My interest in the subjects sparked when I was watching NCIS, how to get away with Murder, Making a Murder, OJ Simpsons Vs the People and Suits. Since I was a child I have watched these shows and inspired to be like the Lawyers. I realise these are fictional character’s and shows but they prominently focus on the idea of Criminal Law.…

Goals That Make Reality A major concern for me in my life is to achieve an education. Since my younger years growing up as an adolescent and going to school, I always wondered what I wanted to do when I grow up. It seems like it’s not a hard question, but in reality it actually is. After I graduated high school in June 2000, I wanted to attend college, but didn’t have enough money to attend. After graduating high school, I decided to work first to save up money to go to college. I realized…
