a better understanding of what women really want and should have for their hair. To become be a hairstylist on the side in the near future, hasn’t been easy. But it has developed my way of thinking what’s best for my own good. Back in Jr. high, when blue polo shirts was required to be worn for 8th graders. Before ending the day,my last period was…

“Young women are bombarded by images of perfection, which no human being can really achieve.” This was quoted by Emma Watson as she was trying to encourage young ladies to feel good about themselves. It basically sums up everything I didn’t have the courage to do for quite some time. The year 2010 was really tough for me. It was the year that not only changed my perspective of a normal life, but of how I saw myself as a person. I started my sixth grade year like any other eleven year old did.…

I was fascinated at a young age at skyscrapers and roller coasters and how those things seem to defy gravity. Yet, like all high schools they not teaching you anything you need to know about life. Even though I got to go to a better school the curriculum was linear. They not teaching you how to cover holes in your run-down apartment or how to live on 100 dollars a month with…

I have faced many challenges growing up that have taught me many lessons. Some of these lessons were learned simply while others were done so painstakingly. Thankfully, these lessons will follow me through my adulthood. I have developed integrity, dedication, and efficiency through my educational, life, and professional experiences, and these will help me to pursue a degree. My first job taught me a very important lesson, how to stay away from trouble. When I was 16 years old, I started working…

High School Should Be More Like College A common belief is that college students perform better than high school students because of the fact that college students have to pay for their classes. While this is true, there is another reason why college students are able to receive better grades: college students choose their teachers. In high school, a student may be able to sign up for certain classes, but the teacher that the student receives is not one of his or her choosing. If students could…

benefit from the extra activity some are already engaged in extra activities after school (Driscoll and Ginsburg). Some people are already involved in sports so they shouldn 't be taking pe i school. It would just be a waste of time for some students. “high school student should be forced to get into PE courses because of fear of getting a low grade. Grades do matter and they are especially important to the college-bound student”(Driscoll and Ginsburg). Students are usually embarrassed or…

less tense and I was more at peace mentally and emotionally. This affected my 7th and 8th grade year, causing them to go smoothly. I’m glad that they did because those are the two most important years when it comes to applying to high school. I applied to 20 various high schools all across the city, including Cristo Rey, I weighed all of my options down and narrowed down Imhotep and CRPHS. I ended up choosing Cristo Rey because it was more appealing to me compared to the other school. Indeed,…

vy League, by definition, is a group of long-established colleges and universities in the eastern US having high academic and social prestige. Schools of this much stature are except to hold and create the most intelligent. So, isn’t it ironic that a majority of students attending these “prestige” schools are culprits of grade inflation. Whether it is in movies like, “Legally Blonde” or “Gilmore Girls,” Ivy League schools are perceived to be better academically successful. Therefore, when the…

because of parental, school and peer influences. A prominent force that invites youth to join gangs is parental influences. Research has shown parent relationships and family structure to have a key role: a questionnaire answered by youth in a public high school in different states in America (Esbensen et al. 2001:112-13) presented a comparison of youth in and…

Can one truly pinpoint the definition of technology? It is constantly evolving so the definition twenty years ago would not compare to it in this day in age. Whether twenty years ago or today, it still impacts people in a way in which is unexplainable. From contacting people around the globe, to searching a question and getting an answer immediately, technology sure has altered many people’s lives. I was never very technologically advanced growing up. I did not get my first phone until 7th…
