Ben Carson has impacted my personal life by motivating me to be more diligent in my studies. In his early life Carson never really had much. He lived in inner city - Detroit in a small house, with just his mother and brother. Sonya Carson, Ben's mother, was the person who pushed him to do better than just average. "Mother had a clear understanding of how things would be for us boys" says Carson about his mother. Although, Sonya had her own struggles, she was still "hard working, goal oriented,…

The Creation of Humor and Drama In Much Ado About Nothing, Shakespeare created a lighthearted comedy regarding love and all that it entails, with entertaining characters. Although Much Ado About Nothing is a comedy, drama also plays a factor in the story through the diverse mix of serious personalities such as Don John, with more humorous personalities such as Benedick. In addition to these extremes on the serious-humorous spectrum, Shakespeare also uses more complex personalities, such as…

I partly agree that the function of Beatrice and Benedick is simply to provide comic relief. Much ado about nothing is known as a comedy; however the plot and key parts of the play include serious themes like deception, wit and slander which overrule the humorous elements in the play. Beatrice and Benedick’s role could be strongly argued to fulfil the comical relief role and there is a clear contrast between serious themes with the witty characters of Beatrice and Benedick and their “merry-war.”…

Randomness Chapter 10 in Ben Goldacre’s book Bad Science is called “Why Clever People Believe Stupid Things” and the title alone hints what the upcoming theories will be about. When I read the title of the chapter, the first thing I thought about was superstitions and luck. As I read on, I discovered that the theory does actually touch upon the topic of luck. The Randomness theory discusses how humans have a habit of making something out of nothing (Goldacre, 2008). Goldacre provides a few…

There are several qualities that made me choose the film, Good Will Hunting. The main reason was the emotions that I felt when I watch the film for the first time. As I watched the film, I became engulfed in a world that was very similar to mine. From the story plot to the characters, each aspect of the film seemed to demonstrate the central theme of the film, which was the ability for the protagonist to grow as a person. Will begins the film by being distant from others, which is a common…

This one I must say, had me challenged, but not in a way I enjoy. Within my professional development, I have worked in operations and logistics for nearly two decades, but lack…
