Goldfish

People often walk up to me and ask “What makes you so freekin awesome?” Haha, no they don't. But people do ask how I make music theory seem so simple? I reply; “Because it is.” Let me start with a little story. I grew up in the golden age of guitar players. Eddie Van Halen, Steve Vai, and Alex Lifeson were staples in my CD player, and they played continuously. Like anyone my age, I had the dream of being a rock star with tens-of-thousands of fans screaming their adoration while the…

Why Animals Deserve Rights Animals deserve to have the same rights as humans do. It is not our right to slaughter or maltreatment them in any way. Animals are living things, and their lives are just as precious as a human lives. All animals have emotions and memories, and they are all smart in their own ways. All animals, including humans, are living organisms, and we should value the existence of all life on planet earth. Animals, like us, also have emotions. Animals can feel happy, sad, and…

this adds to the sinister comparison. The comparison of him and the snowman displays his lack of compassion but also his intense loneliness. The snowman also reflects his cold state of mind. Another example of his cruel actions is how he “pours the goldfish down the bog”. He accomplishes this atrocious move on a vulnerable creature. This proves…

because that is what the best writing does. What should I write about, I asked myself. Should I write about the time my mom kicked me out of the house, or growing up in poverty and living in my mom’s car, no, how about the time I killed my aunt’s goldfish by feeding it pepper because she left the pepper next to the fish food. That was right there…

Unique Utopias The idea of an “utopia” is often thought about in one way, without any diversity. This is wrong, as no two utopias are exactly the same. One of the main contributing factors in an utopia is the diversity in which makes each society special. Although Victory City and Sacred Mountain Sanctuary have few similarities such as their societal goals, the two communities are extremely different when it comes to their education systems, their way of life, and their economics. To…

An estuary is a body of water in which fresh water from streams and rivers flows into seawater-containing oceans (Estuaries, 2008). The mixture of both seawater and fresh water is termed brackish water (Estuaries, 2008). Salinity depends on the exact location of an estuary, as the salt concentration is nonexistent in the fresh water end compared to the sea water end. The normal levels of salinity are between 0.5 to 35 ppt (Estuaries, 2008). Based on the central location of the fish kill site…

What makes a good teacher is a tenderhearted person who enjoys teaching students and will do anything to help their students. What makes a great teacher is a person who has a passion to teach students and will get down and dirty with their students. A great teacher also knows their teaching philosophy; in which mine is essentialism. All teachers should know their teaching goals for a few reasons. First they need to know who they are before they can teach anyone anything. They also need to know…

Picture a world in which all that exists is concrete civilizations and people. What a terrible, mundane world that would be. There may come a day where this is no longer a situation we have to visualize, and mankind will be responsible. The poem “A Curse” by David Brooks utilizes tone and mood when exploring the issue of man’s domino effect on nature and in regards to discussing the need to eliminate human ignorance towards environmental distress. The poem tells the story of an incident, that in…

assignments, it should be noted that none of them were truly restrictive with the exception of page limit. With only vague prompts (though some had none at all), I had complete creative control of what and how I wrote. Whether it was a one-man debate on Goldfish crackers versus Cheez-its, a horse 's letter to a fellow stallion about meeting humans, or a lengthy series of rhymes about a sandwich passing through the digestive system, the imaginative nature of these "fun" assignments has brought…
