I Cried

Many people assume you join an organization because you already have knowledge of what the organization is about, but I believe even if you don’t have the knowledge before joining doesn’t mean you can’t join. For me, I had trouble fitting in at the Engineering Club at my High School. I didn’t have any knowledge about engineering before joining the club, but that didn’t stop me, I was still interested to find out what it was all about. You might ask why join this club and well you were able to…

From the origin of the American musical, a variety of creative teams have developed many methods to popularize now memorable shows. These methods were considered integral in the formula for developing the musical and were later deemed “conventional”. Composers and lyricists throughout the years eventually adapted these conventions and have created some of the most successful shows that are still relevant to this day, including Sweeney Todd and Les Misérables. Some of those inspirational…

into our territory and the only thing standing between him and the ring, was me. I was the last line of defense. I can feel the adrenaline pumping in my body as my heart pounds as hard as it could. I was very nervous as the fate of my team is in my hands.…

Manichean Texts of the Silk Road Tun-Huang was a major destination along the Silk Road. The caves of the thousand Buddhas contained many important manuscripts and pieces of art which have been used by historians to learn about the cultures of the Silk Road. Among these were three Manichean texts written in Chinese. These are the Hymnscroll, the Compendium of the Doctrines of Mani, and the Traité Pelliot. These are significant because they are some of the only written documents we have of the…

Another reason I believe why these athletes are employees is that they are economically dependent on their universities, just as most of traditional relationships between employer and employees. College football players are dependent on their universities through basic survival needs, such as food and shelter (McCormick., McCormick, 2006). Only some of the players are given grants and aids to be able to eat as they would not be able to finically support themselves without it (McCormick.,…

Outcome 2 I choose to use SA2 for this outcome. This assignment is about analyzing the rhetorical choices and evidences choices made by others. I need to have a good understanding about the correct use of rhetorical choices in order to make just judgement about whether others make effective rhetorical choices or not. In addition, the evidences play an important role in a persuasive paper, so I also need to determine whether the authors choose effective evidences to support their main claims.…

the knowledge I’ve absorbed and events I’ve experienced, I can truly say that college is a handful of joy and pain. Last year, as an incoming freshman, the fear of being in college was stronger than my excitement. I was terrified and coming from my background: 1st generation college student with a single mother of four and barely any money to our family, I felt the pressure. Sabin was my O-Team Leader during my summer orientation and I will never forget his suave demeanour. He was genuine and…

As the time of a freshman, I was approached by a young adult leader that was facilitated with Young Life. In the beginning I had numerous questions I did not know the answer to. She introduced me to the club talks and bible studies and after a few months I decided I would get more active in this organization. I was invited to attend a summer camp at Rockbridge. I was indecisive at first, but decided to go for it. A week worth of bible studies…

and i’m going to tell you about it. It was June 5 2015, wich was my birthday. We got out of school and got on an airplane at the Idaho Falls airport. It was my first time on an airplane and it was my birthday so, the pilot let me sit in the cockpit. I videoed the take off on my Ipod and loved the whole ride. When we left Idaho falls it was cold, and when we landed in the Phoenix, Arizona it was really hot. We figured out our rental car was at the Mesa airport, not the Phoenix, so we got into a…

of 2016 began on May 22, when my parents told me we were going on a cruise that summer. I was very surprised at this. Every year we go to Hunting Island State Park to camp on the beach for about two weeks. I was very disappointed that we weren't going this year but I was also excited to go on on my first cruise. I did not know what to expect or if it would be any fun at all. On June twentieth, my family and I boarded a plane to fly to Fort Lauderdale. We arrived two days before we were allowed…
