the bus for the 8th grade overnight trip.The bus was late by 15 minutes and it felt like an eternity.

My Dad decided to take me on a memorable evening bike ride throughout the forested alpine area. The various conifers began to disappear as my Dad and I rode around a turn…

Although written by the same rap artist, Tupac Shakur’s “Dear Mama” and “Hit ‘Em Up” could hardly be more different from each other. Both songs, considered to be Tupac’s most influential for different reasons, showcase a contradiction in the personas he embodies in them.

that goes with the reading we just completed. After going through the whole process and through all the ups and downs it allows for me to give an answer to the question, “Are two heads really better than one?”. Since this project was completed and as the project was very productive I can state that I do believe two heads is better than one. But not every time you work with a group is the assignment you are working on completing better. The trick is to follow many of the things we read out of the…

In his book, In Over Our Heads: The Mental Demands of Modern Life, Robert Kegan (1994) introduces his readers to the concept of the “constructive-developmental theory”. This theory is used to help identify and explain an individual’s developmental evolution as a result of their qualitative metacognition and ability to “construct meaning” from irreconcilable differences, perspectives, and experiences leading to a transformational shift in how they see themselves and the world around them.

My head was spinning all over the place. It felt like I’ve been punched on my head several times with a brick; I felt consciously blind. I was breathing heavily like I’m gasping for air. I couldn’t move much but hear weird noises echoing repeatedly through my brain, I felt myself moving, shaking back and forth, ‘’Monica! Monica!

How did I get my head cut open? It started on a beautiful afternoon. The sun was shining and the weather was hot. It was a good day to be going outside. At the time I was in my babysitter's apartment since that was where I went after school. The apartment was a small 3 room area with a glass table and couches. My friend was a really good friend of mine who I played with a lot. I used to live in Fox Run, the development I had moved from. I had told my sister that I wanted to go outside but she…
