play “doctor” and clean my playmates’ skinned knees using my first aid kit. At the time, I never thought to myself, “I want to be a doctor when I grow up!” This changed on my eighteenth birthday when I saved my mother from choking. I was putting a bookcase together in my room when she stormed in desperately gasping for air. Luckily I had learned the Heimlich maneuver in high school and gave it my best shot. A rush of relief surged through my body when she finally drew in a breath of life. The…

According to Nikula (n. d.), Freud’s and Jung’s initially very promising co-operation started to show too many cracks, and became its definite end in January, 1913. Before the departure of Jung, they agreed and disagreed with variety of theoretical views, Jung trying to improve Freud’s theory. One of the things that Freud and Jung had disagreements was libido, as Jung didn’t believe that libido is mainly sexual energy as Freud did. Instead, Jung broaden the theory of libido for more…

When first enrolling in this Buddhism course, my main objective was to further my ever growing interest in world religions. Although it is every student’s dream to fully engage themselves in the subject they are learning by actually experiencing it, I never thought I would have this opportunity with Buddhism; this was before I was introduced to the possibility of participating in the Zen Center Assignment. I had very little expectations coming into the assignment. At the time we had submitted…

I attended the play It’s a Wonderful Life on Thursday November 17 at 7:30 p.m. This production was put on by the Big Rapids community theatre, Stage M. The show took place at the Crossroads Charter Academy auditorium. This auditorium had a proscenium style layout, meaning the audience was seated on only one side of the stage. The location where the play was performed took away from the experience. It was obvious that the auditorium had not been renovated in a while, the seats were uncomfortable,…

As you walk down the street right across from Mississippi College you will eventually get to a bright yellow building this building is located on 101 W Main St. At first glance, you would believe it was a house, because it is right in the center of a neighborhood. It is also surrounded by a church and some apartments, but as you get closer you see a huge black sign that spells out Cups in big white letters. And as you turn, you see a medium sized Open sign hanging from the window flashing…

take naps on the soft bed in the first room. The next room has green carpet that resembles diarrhea. There used to be a sewing machine and bunk bed in the room until she threw them out. My grandmother’s miniscule office with teal walls hold more bookcases full of paper. During each visit, the heat of the poorly air-conditioned house clings to me as I step into the door. Decades of my grandmother’s eventful life are in plain sight. Rows of pictures that were taken with an old Polaroid sit on the…

The Holocaust is known as the devastating crisis of the 1930s that killed off many undesirable races. Under the rule of Adolf Hitler and the Nazis, German controlled most of Europe during World War II; countries like Austria, Poland, and Germany itself were forced to establish concentrations camps that were used to separate and discriminate against certain populations. Eventually, most of these people were murdered. Men ages 18 to 40 were considered lucky and “eligible for work.” They were…
