Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

Trust for me is a difficult thing. When you can’t trust the people in church you pretty much grew up in, trust becomes nearly impossible. People ask me why I’m so guarded, and here I’ll let you in on a little secret: people change people. Sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worst. You want to know where my hurt from the church comes from, well then sit down, and enjoy the show, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. It all goes back to the first church I was hurt by. I had gone to this…

Being younger, people like me are influenced by countless things our eyes see and what our minds tell us. The words people speak go over our heads and suddenly, we believe the stories they tell our innocent minds. People will happily manipulate us. Levi had many stories kids were pleased to make known. There was never a day where I’d walk the halls of school and conspiracies of the young boy would come my way. Eren would tell me a lot about him. Most of the stories I would obtain from my…

School has always been hard for myself. The most difficult thing that has always been hard for me is spelling. I couldn 't learn how other student did. My second grade teacher Mrs. Leaann found away to help me. The way she found out to help me if like playing a game. We would use flashcard and have them turned over. Each one of us would take a card. Mrs.Leeann would say "Spell the would banana." I would try and spell it. If I got it right I would get the card, but if I got it wrong it would…

longer see the sunrise anew, I will stop breathing this air, no longer walk the streets in this world, and people will forget who I was, unless I made it into the history textbooks at school. The notion that my days alive will end and the hourglass will let down the last grains of sand to my life. I would spend my days being cautiously inside and do my best in avoiding dangerous activities like touching the ocean water at the beach or letting the sun contact my skin for too long, I was…

The world can be a great place to live in full of surprise and dreams, but for some, it is a place of unjust and loneliness. For Curley’s wife, this is her everyday reality. The story Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck starts off with the two main characters Lennie and George. They were running away from their old town, Weed, in search of a new job on the ranch. George is much like a role model and guardian to Lennie, who is mentally unstable. The ranch is filled with men and is own by Curley and…

Nonverbal Communication in the Digital Age,” para. 1). In a single day, I communicate with my phone and computer at least seventy-five percent of the day because most of my family and friends use Facebook, Instagram, and Snap Chat to communicate with me and I use them to communicate with them as well. I use my emails to conduct business, to order products from other companies, and to keep up with important college emails. Since I interact with most people using technology, I should recognize how…

they allow you but you will have a curfew. There are rules and regulation in the house that you need to follow if you don’t want your parents to lectured, insulted or punished you. There are children that misunderstood how their parents disciplined them and it leads to rebellion. They think that they are being controlled, lots of limitations, full of demands and expectations. But let you think all the things that your parents made just to make you who you are right…

I don’t understand this at all because if Socrates is such an evil-doer then why was Socrates trying to teach the children something that even the Sophists couldn’t teach them. He wanted to teach the children the things that the Sophists couldn’t teach, but…

groups like many other students were. I often found myself hiding out in the library and losing myself in reading and writing. Both options offered me an escape from social interactions and it wasn’t until high school that I realized that I relied on both a little too much. All through middle school I had the same small friend group that consisted of me and two other girls. We bonded over our love of learning and our intense focus on furthering our education, but mainly stayed friends because we…
