A Little Deeper

for another leadership quality, I could also develop a personal philosophy. Being in an environment such as school and work, it becomes hard to have my own philosophy while adhering to other individual’s philosophies. This is a quality that I try to grasp for myself, but fall short. I have certain “ways of life” that I follow, but not an overall philosophy. I’m trying to develop this quality for myself, because I have a lot of big changes coming up in my life, and I want to start putting myself on a course for success. Possessing these qualities is vital in making that a reality. 5. What was the most meaningful activity/discussion from class? Please explain and give details. Throughout the whole semester, I’ve really enjoyed all of our little activities and discussions. If I were to think about it, and find what I believe to be the most meaningful to me I would have to go with the pole lowering activity. If someone would have asked me if I could balance and lower a pole on my finger with like 6 others I would have said no problem. After trying and failing multiple times to accomplish what seemed like an easy task I realized just how much we as people over think and fail to properly communicate with each other. I wanted to blame the others for making the group continuously fail to follow the guidelines of keeping your handing in a L shape (like a gun), only letting the bar rest on your two pointer fingers, and if you failed these actions you had to reset and start over.…

We are talking about the days when Myspace was the cool social network site. I had been out with a bunch of friends walking around the town, as I often did, and came home to what I thought was a random friend request on Myspace accompanied by a message. I did not know who it was at first until I dug a little deeper, saw a couple of photos and mutual friends. Then it struck me – it was Jimi D! In the message he wrote about how he had noticed me walking around town. At this time, he was already…

main character, this time that is not measured in months or years, for numerical time has no affect on them. As the main character describes, “we sat there for an hour, maybe two, I don’t know, because it was then that time measured in the ordinary way stopped” (pg.6). Fink begins to use the scenery around the characters as an extension of this non-numerical sense of time as is seen in Behind The Hedge. Recalling a past memory the character does not recall the date or the exact time. She recalls…

Dickinson uses two forms of figurative language; personification and irony. She ironically portrays Death as a gentleman by giving him human characteristics and allowing him to “stop” his carriage for both her and Immortality. In addition, in her poem “Much Madness is Divinest Sense,” she writes “Much Madness is divinest Sense- / Much Sense-the starkest Madness-” (Lines 1&3) Dickinson uses a paradox in this passage describing madness as making good sense. She does this because sanity is…

a fantastic public speaker. I was acclaimed for my acting abilities around the school. I thought for once, we’d get over our differences, but things still remained the same. When Joe graduated, he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and joined the Navy. Unfortunately, due to a medical mix up, he was dishonorably discharged from basic training. This was the beginning of Joe’s even deeper descent into depression. Like history repeating itself, my brother began taking out all of his…

Humor Essay Many works of literature today have persuasive strategies incorporated in them to grab the reader’s attention. Most of the time, writers also use strategies such as humor to send a crucial message to the audience. While this is one effective way of sending a message, other writers utilize formal writing to express the seriousness of a problem. Both methods are effective in getting a message across; however, writing without humor is stronger than those with humor because it is…

The Deeper Tale of the Mighty Mermaid When people think of Disney fairy tales, most immediately associate with fun, happy endings, imagination, and dreams come true. While this is not inherently wrong, it seems they can take it too far. Historically speaking, the majority of fairy tales intend to impart life lessons, values, and morals. However, when Disney sets out to create fairy tale films, ultimately, they tend to alter the original story line so much that the original context tends…
