We had been waiting in a line that stretched around an entire city block. Two hours and one security pat down later, we made our way the arena - where we heard yelling from the outside. Perched from atop the second level seats, surrounded by 13,000 other people, he appeared to be a stubby, red-faced troll – almost as if someone had replaced the head on a manikin with an orange beach ball, and adorned it with a mop head. His name was Donald John Trump, or, as some, I soon discovered, prefer to…

Tuesdays with Morrie On July, 31, 2015 my life changed, I was sitting there with some family and this women who I considered a grandma to me was on her deathbed. The next thing my family and I ,hear is her rasped breathing, and what sounded like choking. She was having difficulty breathing. I walk over to her and then I saw, it the life leave her body.

little steer he was, hence his name, to a much bigger one. Shorty had a unique set of features that set him apart to any ordinary steer from the variation of colors, to the musk of his hide, and his personality.

room was so strong that I couldn’t ignore the feeling. The rug had an object under it. The object was still as the old man grabbed a chair, lifted it up, and slammed it right on the object with all of his strength. The object was still there. The old man kicked it and hurt his foot and screamed, “Dang, that thing is hard.” It felt like he just kicked a piece of metal. The old man told the object, “You want be tough, oh I’ll show you tough.” The next day, he decides to try his driller.…

traits to career choices. Tan referred to the ENFJs as the Teachers/Givers and wrote, “As an ENFJ, you’re primary mode of living is focused externally, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system.” I know for me that is how I tend to operate.

and found a much deeper meaning behind this simple grate. This grate caught my eye because as Bennett talks about in her writing on assemblage this grate felt like it had the power in my eyes, even though it wasn’t a living thing. Bennett said the world is filled “with all sorts of animate beings, some human, some not, some organic, some not.”(Bennett, 2005, Agency of Assemblage, p.1) So even though the grate wasn’t technically alive it…
