Hard Times

was used to being able to ride a roller coaster and now I want to do something even bigger. One thing that I would ever want to accomplish is to live life to the fullest. One way to have the best of my accomplishment is to attain a good education. Hard work and studying can help me pay attention in class and solve problems on specific things either in schoolwork or for outside knowledge. I would instill all my effort into getting good grades and making sure my main focus is to my goal. Having…

diseases, cataracts, and beak down of the central nervous system. Long term exposure is a factor strongly considered when thinking of sending astronauts to mars and they would be exposed for a long period of time. Suits are in the works to eliminate the risk of all the radiation. Limiting a crew’s time exposed to radiation was used in the early space programs. During the Apollo missions to the moon exposure to radiation belts was minimized but on the way to a planet like mars other factors may…

As the years go by, from the time a human comes out their mother’s womb to present time there will always be struggles one will encounter. However, a struggle shouldn’t be the cause for one to crawl into a shell to the nearest corner, nor go crawling for mommy’s help. In such way that what people don’t acknowledge is that in life in order to be successful or make a change for yourself you need to stop being afraid and want to have a challenge because in the end whatever you accomplish on your…

I cannot imagine that time has flown so fast. It seems like yesterday when I was first hired in summer quarter to be a Peer Mentor. I used to have a lot of imagination about what it would be, and how I would react with my mentees when I officially become a Peer Mentor. This is also my first time to be a Peer Mentor, so I got super excited. However, everything is not like what it seems. When I first received my cohort assignment email said that I would be a Peer Mentor for IESL level 1 and 2, I…

college or going to be going to college? Let me give you this warning: you only get one shot to do it right! Who am I to say this? I have been to several huge universities (University of Texas and Arizona State University), I started over several times, went to several community colleges, strictly online colleges, joined all different kind of clubs, lived in different dorms, apartments, and at my parents while going to college, and got a bachelor’s and a master’s degree. Considered by many a…

we want to be connected but we forget the present time. For example, people go out together for dinner but they stay connected to their smartphones and forget the other people they are with. They post photos of their dinner and chat with faraway people on their phones and they distract themselves from the real time with others. Couples and Relationships One of the reasons for a breakdown of communication between couples is smartphones. It is hard to have real communication when your phones keep…

scared. That much is easy to say. I've been scared most of my life if many different things and many different reasons. It's what I'm afraid of and why that's hard to explain. There's so much on my mind at this very moment, so many different topics, situations, and scenarios. Most have to do with the here and now. Some are about past experiences that I'm afraid will happen again, and I don't want them to. They've caused me enough heartache already. Occasionally, my mind drifts to the future. A…

In which all those decisions, are hard to make u, it is best to try them out to see which one is best. The one thing I believe is to always try some things before one turns it down. The reason is that you’ll never know the outcome good or bad. Although many things are best now to try because…

same values as me, although I do hope to do both. I also want to know that I worked hard and did not take an easy route or way out. I want to have taken challenges instead of shying away from opportunities I came upon. I want to be able to proudly look back on moments where, perhaps, I could have been deceptive or gotten away with something, but I instead maintained my integrity. I hope to be able to remember a time where a stranger needed help and I did not stand by watching passively or walk…

initially with the pastor then it runs over into the town and then the church. Later he meets up with Christ and later the police to end the story off with him in jail. Walker takes her readers on a trip through key elements of what was happening at the time and relating them to her writing. Walker shows us the disconnects of this particular story are race and religion. Two natural causes that plagues the world on a day to day basis. Initially, Sargeant is looking for refuge in the home…
