I will start that I did not expect the response to varying as much as I thought. There are similar tones to the women yet they all manage to figure out their own goals. The responses I received from these women all varied which I found interesting. Even the two women who did not have children. The first person I interviewed was Yeni. Yeni is a good friend of mine. When I first met, her I thought she was actually in her 20s until she told me she was in her 30s. I found this shocking about her…

“He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have” Socrates. What a powerful quote. Think about it for just a moment, how many times do you go through your day and truly do not give a thought to all the little things in your life. Until now I felt that being thankful for small things in life was enough. I would think “people in my life know I love them and that I thankful for everything they are to me”, but do they really? It is my new…

Grand Theft Auto V (PS4) - Textual Analysis I would first define the theme of Grand Theft Auto V as “An immersive, criminal, action-adventure in pursuit of fortune”. After spending numerous hours analysing each individual textual device, it became evident to me that with great effort these textual devices have been interwoven with subtle complexity to craft the theme of the game, and to connote different emotions and meanings for thousands of players. The audio in Grand Theft Auto V…

Everyone has their own identity. Identity is the most essential factor for the reason every action is committed by an individual. However, finding ones true-self can be quite difficult since it is the strongest part of one’s personality. Many people identify themselves with ownership, whether it is devices, automobiles, or even a home. In the story, “The House on Mango Street”, Sandra Cisneros examines a young girl who has to deal with her family living in poverty. The family is constantly…

For this experiment, I interviewed a six year old female named Destiny. For the first assessment we read Aesop’s The Wolf & the Crane, where the wolf tricks the crane into helping him in promises of a reward and then informs her that her reward was letting her live after helping him. I asked Destiny what she thought the story meant (what they were trying to say) and she responded with a concrete operational response such as “the wolf lied to the crane because he didn’t give her a reward like he…

Wildlife Population Data: After observing populations of two different species of birds, we were able to come to conclusions using data of their populations over a time interval of 43 years. By looking at the year vs. population, one can see general trends of both the bald eagle data as well as the data from pheasants both tend to generally increase. We inserted the data from Table 9 into individual graphs of the population of pheasants and bald eagle breeding pairs. When looking at Figure 15,…

When doing parallel structure in NoRedInk all the sentences…
