I Gotta Feeling

According to Aristotle, pleasure can be created by certain natural onsets (emotions) that engage a person’s soul. In On Rhetoric near the end of Book 1, Aristotle defines pleasure as “a certain movement of the mind and a collective organization of sensual perception reaching into [an individual’s] fundamental nature” (87). He goes on to say that “movement into a natural state is thus necessarily pleasurable for the most part, and especially whenever a natural process has recovered its own…

“I pray that one day the world will be filled with peace and rid of justice. Only then will we all be free.” This powerful statement came from a man named Jermaine Cole, better known by his stage name J. Cole, along with a very powerful protest song titled “Be Free” after the murder of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.

I want to apologize to you. I did not handle last night very well. I definitely said things that were on my mind, but could have chosen a better time and way to express my thoughts and feelings. When I left last night we agreed to table the break up until we have the chance to talk Thursday night. I am glad that we decided to do this, but I want you to know where I am coming from and what it is that I need. When I am face to face with you I tend to clam up and stop talking. Unless I get…

Since I was already feeling upset about how I wasn 't handling things well last week, Monday kind of just slapped me in the face and made things worse. I met with a UNM academic advisor, and I would say that I do not particularly like him because he made me question myself as to why I am even going to school and he basically made me feel like I would not be able to succeed as a pre-med student. I got offered a transfer scholarship and a grant from UNM; the catch is that I have to be enrolled…

Winzenburg expresses that he might include a guiltless remark but a student that is sensitive to the subject takes it abruptly (389). That is where the sensitivity of “people’s feelings getting hurt” is put in place. College professors should not…

I remember this day beginning like any other day, early morning making the rounds, feeding my son, shower, making a shopping list. In these normal everyday mundane routines you never think about an event that can hit you in the face with a huge dose of reality. Within seconds your whole world can turn upside down with one event. I was in my early twenties, it had only been a year ago that I had gotten married and moved to Nevada with my husband. My husband answered the phone, I knew…

The person I chose to interview is my close friend, Jessica, who I view as a sister even. We are very close with one another and we spend a lot of time together and support one another. Process 1.
