I Try

Who am I as a learner and global citizen is as follows, This will also link to my goals as a learner. One of my Goals is to truly be myself, and not listen when people judge me and all the stuff that they just throw in my face, but you can just ignore it and put it down. Which is why one of my heroes is Eminem, as a result, that’s exactly what he does, and he still goes the same path that he’s chosen, and he’s still great. One of my school goals is to try not to chop into so much trouble, which could be demonstrated by doing all of my work and not talking in class. Another one of my school goals is to not put myself into a position where I’m so overwhelmed with school projects and colossal homework assignments. This could be demonstrated…

jumped into the shower and got out 10 minutes later. 'What the hell do I wear? Are we going somewhere nice or casual? Should I text her and see? Fuck it, I 'll surprise her. ' Carmilla decided to wear her black skinny jeans with the tear on the kneecaps, her leather boots, and a black top that slightly showed off her stomach. She had the abs, so why not impress Laura? She wore her hair in the usual way, curls draping down her shoulders, while her bangs swooped over her…

For this concert report, I attended a concert at The Runcible Spoon. This was on a Tuesday evening and the environment was different than I thought. What struck me was the environment of the concert. I didn’t feel like I was really at a concert as I thought that I would because of the informality and it being at a concert. From going to this concert, I was able to conclude that concerts at restaurants have a much different feel to them than formal concerts. When we walked in, the musicians…

and to like who they are. For example, the song Gold by Britt Nicole, talks about how your worth more than what people say you are, to have confidence in yourself and to believe in yourself. So many other artists portray this type of music like Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. Each artist represents a positive view of themselves which adds an additional plus to them being role models to society. For instance, Alicia Keys who is a powerful figure that society looks up too, has started a ban on…

In acquiring the famous music business, Apple began to promote their new addition with inspirational commercials.

For this essay, I will be reviewing music in a social context. I attended First Baptist Church in Denton, Texas on October 25, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. I have attended this specific church once before and fell in love with its music and atmosphere. The atmosphere of the church feels very warm, comfortable, and cozy. Both the coordinators and members of the church are very welcoming as they greeted everyone that walks through the doors. The deacons, or coordinators, led us to seating to wait until the…

and a lot of different people listen to a variety of music. People consider music as a healer and they think that people like to listen to music just to comfort them. People want music to take away all the pain and they don’t want to have to deal with stuff so they just turn on a song and it just brings them in a better mood. If someone is also listening to music they think that a certain song will bring back a lot of memories and some of those memories are good and other memories are bad or…

to accomplish? This very same thing happened to me my freshman year of high school. I was new to the Forrest City School District, but I did not let that discourage me. I decided to try out for the Forrest City High School Cheerleading team, but unfortunately did not make it. I spent countless hours practicing and practicing, but it seemed as if it was not enough. At first I did not see what I did wrong. I kept asking myself what did I do that was wrong? What did I do that caused me not to make…

I used to struggle with failure. I used to never want to try something new because I was afraid I would look stupid and mess it up. Eventually, I would try wrestling as it seemed interesting and would get me out of the house, something I tried to achieve frequently. When I first did wrestling I was a freshman, I was awful at it as I expected, I got beat up, hurt, and failed frequently. After the first week or so I wanted to quit, but I was afraid of looking like a wimp, so I decided to stick…

Something I have realized throughout my my life, is that on holidays, people tend to try to compensate, or help out the ones in need. And although this is a really admirable thing to do, it is usually something that is only done during this occasions. Furthermore, most times, it is assumed that their only needs are the material ones, when really, a lot of people need moral and spiritual need. My school used to take us to poor daycares on christmas eve, and we would be assigned each one one kid,…
