I Understand It

a Snake I remember the day of November 6th, 2008, the day the incident happened. It was a sunny, beautiful shinny day outside, wind blowing, leaves falling kids running, and the smell of fresh air filled the place. That day was the day my friends and I decided we should go outside and chill. Tripping over the carpet in front of my door was just the beginning of my adventure’s life. That wasn’t the worse that had happened; of course I had injuries from working out the day before, but I decided…

Reflection Paper I have never enjoyed school. I enjoy learning new things and experiencing the wonders of this world. I am a ‘hands on’ learner. If you show me how to fish, I’ll retain the knowledge much more easily than to just explain how to fish. I’m assuming, like most people I went to college right out of high school and thoroughly enjoyed the college experience. Maybe for the wrong reasons. I thought I knew what I wanted to do with my life, but was never really motivated to complete my…

Despite what many think, the pharaohs of ancient Egypt did not succeed each other as an unbroken, patrilineal chain by any means. By the Eighteenth Dynasty, the state of kingship had recovered is authority from the Asiatic ruling of the Second Intermediate Period. Hatshepsut, one of the most well-known female kings of Egypt, is a clear outlier to what one would expect from a typical pharaoh. Her story, in summary, involves her gaining control over administration after King Thutmose II, her…

Allow me to begin by expressing that I regret my actions that have led to me writing this letter. In the fall of 2014 I decided to begin my college career; however, this later proved to be a mistake for multiple reasons. During the summer before the fall semester, I met a girl which led to the first relationship that I have ever had. I spent every night with her and stayed awake, most nights, until five in the morning, disrespected my parents, and began calling out of work. These poor habits…

Art communicates various social, religious, and political messages, and it is the patrons, artist, and public who are crucial in receiving and conveying these messages. Western art was a highly influential tool and was used as a conduit for political ideologies and historical events. It could associate its subject with greatness, power, and divinity. However, it remains debatable on who had a greater hand in shaping the artistic direction of Western art — the individual or the state. While both…

My Trip On Vacation To Wildwood When I Was Little It was in the year 2008 when my family and I had went to Wildwood beach on vacation. That was when my brother Louie asked,“Can we go to the beach?” My mom said, “Soon.” My brothers and I were so excited that we couldn’t wait! Once we had payed for the valet, we quickly ran on the beach to the place where we could see the water. I was four years old when this all happened. My brothers Louie and Daniel were five years old. My mom and dad…

Before I was born, my parents went on their honeymoon in California. Their stories were filled with amazing places, while their pictures showed the wonderful sights. I love when we sit on the front porch swing with the picture album and talk about their trip for hours. I can clearly imagine every little detail that my parents share with me. Their story has always fascinated me since the first time they told me the wild adventure. They had the most crazy adventures from skydiving to swimming…

After Diocletian’s reign ended in 315 AD, there was a fight for imperial power over the Roman Empire. Diocletian had created a tetrarchy, but now the men fighting for the imperial office wanted to have sole power of the empire instead of having other men rule with him. Constantine the Great and Maxentius would turn out to be the main attackers for the position. Maxentius had power over Italy from defeating Galerius, and Constantine had control over the upper Roman Empire of Gaul and Britain.…

finally says its goodbye and the fall leaves and cold wild says hello for the first time in a few months. I never wanted summer to end knowing that I made so many memories and I wanted to make more. Looking back, I learned so much over the summer of 2013. The gold, plastic trophy first place shines over my desk and memories flood back into my head. I was so happy my cousin made me join beach volleyball. I was never the outgoing type or the person who tried to make new friends and talk with…
