Forgetting

Cursive writting is indeed beneficial to a student's mental development, and therefore; should be thaught in school. Replacing cursive writting with typing and technology will do more harm than good to the student. I typing believe it will minimize their ablity to process and retain information, and is therfore essential to one's learning development. As a student myself, writing my notes by hand helps me process the information as well as remembering it as I write it down. There is no boubt…

Working at the aquarium lab in Crab Cove requires agility and awareness. One misstep and swarms of fish are endangered inside. An average day involves maneuvering through a list of tasks in the course of two hours, so efficiency is necessary without making sloppy mistakes. My job includes administering water changes, feeding rehabilitating fish, documenting quality tests, and occasionally assisting in injections. Every week I carry a ten pound pump among an assortment of tanks, transferring old…

The giver then just walked away to his secluded house forgetting to close the door. Thumping as the giver trudged up to speak to Melisa, his wife. The giver knew that she was supposed to let Melisa go into the house of the childless, because our child had grown up. “But, I love her. Even though she would never understand it was precision of…

The culturally relevant film I watched was “The Vanished Elephant” directed by Javier Fuentes-León. The film was released in 2014 and is a feature narrative. It is from the countries of Peru, Colombia, and Spain. The film was played in Spanish with English subtitles. This is one of the only films that I have watched where the cast is mostly all Latino, not white, unlike other movies that would be considered popular in today’s generation. I found it quite interesting that there is a Cine Latino…

I believe that Gatsby is not in love with Daisy, only the idea of her. In Gatsby’s head he has created such an illusion that even if they were to be together again, she wouldn’t be able to live up to the expectations that he has developed in his mind. This is shown when the book states “He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion, adding to it all the time, decking it out with every bright freshness can challenge what a man will store up in his ghostly heart” (Fitzgerald 103). Gatsby…

Every soldier had a different story to tell, some do tell while others lock them up in their minds far form anyone's…

Overly Confidence can breed ignorance to anyone’s character and people may be likely to repent from establishing and or maintaining any relationship with you. Moreover, you can become susceptible to the “fallacy fallacy” where you always intend to spot and exploit when the opposite person falls victim to any fallacy. In my personal observation we can all be better at making decision because we are predictably rational. Our intuition and way of deciphering things can influence our cognitive…

From the moment I read the title of this week's reflection, I knew that I was going to be able to relate to the plot. No, growing up in modern day Miami in a family of five does not compare to growing up in times of segregation in a family of eight. Although our lifestyles may be different the struggles of the main character could be related to. The main character of this passage lives in a neighborhood where some are living comfortably by being members of the middle class and others are…
