I Try

Ladies and gentlemen, if you may be trying to decide whether or not to sit down to watch Oklahoma, allow me to make your mind up for you. Grab some popcorn, a cold drink, and prepare yourself for an enticing musical. This musical connects with many of its viewers on many different levels, not only with the dialogue but with the musical pieces that were chosen. Allow your mind to wander back to the early 1900’s, on a farm in Oklahoma, where the magic begins to happen. Oklahoma starts off with…

experience the joy of theatre, even those who wouldn’t necessarily try it outside of school.” For Mueller, theatre has proven an integral part of her education, identity, and now even her career. A 2008 State High alumna, she reflects on her SCASD experience: “My best memories are from high school when I had the opportunity to sing in many choirs and perform with the State High Thespians,” said Mueller.…

are working together or even the same being? God must be coordinating with the Snake in order to test Mankind’s obedience to Him. I came to this conclusion when after carefully reading the text, I could find no purpose for the tree other than to be a test for Mankind. Placing the tree in the center of the garden and calling it off limits is just asking Mankind to try it. After Mankind resisted the temptation, God needed another way to test Mankind to see if they were impervious to persuasion.…

Genesis 2 and 3 might seem that it focuses on the creation of the world as we know. However, if we look beyond this storyline, we can see that Genesis 2 and 3 is actually about how God tests Mankind. The testing is not to see Mankind fail, but rather, how Mankind can improve. Throughout the entirety of Genesis 2 and 3, we see that The Garden of Eden was made by God that one may test Mankind. We can see this through the order of creation, how Mankind gets tested, and from how the punishments are…

Vivian Rider My Mentor “Talk to me.” Every time I had an upset or quiet demeanor that leads to shutting myself down from friends and class participation, my elementary school teacher would constantly show her concern when nobody else would. Life isn’t easy and it took me a long time to understand that. Letting others into my life without hesitating isn’t so scary as I thought it would be. Sometimes being alone is the best, but restraining from destroying myself is being strong. What makes me…

Everyone was in the basement putting on their costumes, and I was getting my stuff ready. We had to use paint to make it look like it was blood, but the paint wasn’t that much alike so now we had a problem. We didn’t know what to do, then a lady came in with more paint all were different types of red, yet none looked like blood. I decide to try to mix some of the paints to see if it would work, so I sat down on a corner and started mixing the colors. The mixture was good it came…

where I am going to college and my plans when I get there. I do normally go along with the compliment and take credit for my successes, in part because compliments make me recoil, and explaining the extent to your influence would be too expository and frankly unnecessary in some situations. Your effect on my life goes beyond what I could ever expect, or even consciously like, and your influence I constantly feel at rare but increasingly frequent moments of realization and introspection. I would…

I wanted to make tapa/kapa, bark cloth that old Polynesians and Hawaiians used to make. This is because I have learned how to make tapa/kapa in my ethnobotany class. I have been amazed how early Polynesians and Hawaiians were closely connected to the nature and how they incorporate with nature to live sustainably. I enjoyed learning how they created clothes in the old days. Therefore, I decided to make tapa/kapa from a scratch. To be honest, a night before this morning, I got some trouble with…

The first couple of months of school were quite challenging as I was trying to handle the workload and learn the language. Although I spoke some English upon arrival to the country, my language skills were certainly nowhere near what one might consider college adequate. However, it was not the language barrier that was of utmost concern. Shortly before I moved to the country, my father became strangely ill. By the time I started attending college his health was still not improving, and no doctor…
