As I stood in an unfamiliar building full of unfamiliar faces, I choose to do the only thing that made me comfortable—be alone. On the nerve-racking first day of school, I had no intentions of being social. I went straight to my vacant first hour, even though class did not start for twenty minutes. In fact, for almost the whole year I continuted to brake the norm of socializing and headed straight to first hour when the bus dropped me off. I discovered it was beneficial to organize myself before…

opular sources vs. scholarly sources In preparation for this assignment, I was able to use Pinterest as a way of research and learned that depending on research topic, that Pinterest and popular sources may be an acceptable way to support an argument. These sources are what I used in my comparison to the popular sources that can be found on Pinterest. My Exploratory draft three explores how popular sources can be useful in supporting an argument: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_rmoHln…
I graduated high school in 2014 with a 4.0 GPA, was in the top ten percent of my class, and was accepted to Pennsylvania State University. Everything had gone right for me, and I was excited to begin my college career. The only problem was, I did not know what I wanted to major in, let alone what I wanted to be in my life. I chose Penn State because they had a great program for students who were undecided. My hope was that I would suddenly have an epiphany and realize what career I wanted to…
Initial Goals: My initial goals for the program was to take in an equation like 5*(4/3+2^(3-1)) and return the answer to it (26.666667 in this case). I intended it to work with simple arithmetic (multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, exponents, and parentheses). My initial brainstorming resulted in an iterative action. The program would follow the order of operations and begin with the contents of innermost parentheses and replace that portion of the input with the answer before…
Hundreds of children talking all at once, that’s what morning at Illini Elementary School sounded like. And there I sat having no one to talk to. Until one day a new girl came through the school doors. She was as tall as a giant and had short black box braids. This girl sat down by all the other children in my grade. So many thoughts were going through my head at once I didn’t know what to do. I was so nervous to talk to her that I almost threw up! I didn’t want her to reject me like the other…
C is for Coins C is for coins. I have been an avid coin collector ever since I was seven. I have worked up quite a collection in the 6 years I have been collecting. Throughout this process everyone has been great and very supportive. I mainly collect silver dollars, half dollars, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies dating back from 1964. In 1964 President Kennedy was put on the half dollar after been assassinated in not even a year before. It was the fastest the U.S. Mint ever changed design…
In 1963, the South African biologist Sydney Brenner proposed C. elegans as a model system for studies of development and neurobiology. Researchers share their findings in C. elegans genome via the internet with other researchers from around the world. The process of sharing the genome database on the world wide web provides a working framework for researchers who are working on the human genome project In 1969, John Sulston developed a technique to freeze and thaw the worm. As a result, the…
