With Bruce being shot, it is his father who uses the loss of his son to become The Batman. Martha is so overwhelmed with the loss…

The “Best Years of Your Life” My life is a bit different from what we call “normal”. While most teens my age were going to school dances, kicking it with their boyfriends or killing it on the sports field. I on the other hand was in a hospital bed trying to feel somewhat normal. I just have to say that it wasn’t always like this for me. I was once your normal teen, talking to guys, destroying the soccer field and going out and partying on the weekends. That only lasted for a short time tho. And…

Many years ago, a teacher of mine once said “if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life”. Growing up in a working middle class family, money is often the motive when finding a job. I have yet to meet someone in my particular family who genuinely says they work to make a difference, not earn an income. Being the first of my family’s generation to attend college, I made sure that whatever field I go into will be one where I can offer some sort of usefulness to those around me.…

As Maya Angelou is quoted as saying: “It has been said that we need just three things in life: something to do, something to look forward to and someone to love. (Willis, 2014) I have to be honest, for the longest time I didn’t know what career was a best for me. That’s when I had to ask myself, “What is in it for my future if I don’t develop a stable foundation within my career?” I noticed that it became a pattern with me working jobs that always ended in unsatisfaction so that’s when I decided…

Amanda Perring carefully stepped off the bright yellow school bus onto the clean, asphalt driveway leading to her parent’s garage. Her house was a classic, one story suburb on the outskirts of Los Angeles, located in middle class neighborhood where no one had to worry about money but there wasn't much extra to spend. Her mother and father were both respected doctors and were almost never home when Amanda was. Every day on the bus, she would sit at the very back with no one else, completely…

Why Mario Lemieux is Better Than Wayne Gretzky Who do you think is better: Gretzky or Lemieux? Arguably, you could say Wayne Gretzky was the number one player ever. Statistically, Gretzky is the greatest player in the NHL by scoring 2857 points. However, Lemieux has faced more challenges and still manages to be 8th in all time points. People may say that Gretzky is clearly a better player purely due to stats. As stats do tell some info about a hockey player, they do not tell you…

8th grade will always be one of my memorable year of my life, 8th grade will always be a year to love and remember every moment of my life, and 8th grade will always be a year I’ll never let go. I will never forget those unbelievable times with my friends hanging out during break, playing football and basketball going to school dances during fall, winter, spring, and summer, going to a field trip to Great America during the end of 8th grade year, and most importantly spending my…

Two weeks passed and it happened again. He knew he wasn’t going to last much longer. The attacks had become more and more frequent. He had to get out! Alfred had tried many times, but they were guarding the door under the doormat. They could only appear under rugs and carpets, so he figured the hated the light. For that reason he decided to call them moles.They had been unsuccessfully trying to kill him off for a month now and Alfred was running out of food. He tried calling the police but the…

to get across? Although it may sound cool, it really is not very thought-provoking. Lil Wayne, for example, is a great demonstration of how much in the pop culture day has no meaning. When he raps he is not singing, he is only speaking fast and hold words out longer. Second, some of his music has words in it that do not make sense but they are in there so that they rhyme with the rest of his lyrics. Lil Wayne is more see as someone who gets in trouble and goes to jail. He went to jail for…

While in class last week I had this light bulb that went off in my head that made me realize it was always meant for me to work with kids. I used to think I hated other people's kids and I couldn't stand to be around underclassmen. But all this time God has been guiding me in preparation for what my purpose in life really is. All this time I've been ignoring my purpose and I didn’t realize it until I watched one of my classmate’s 1st therapy session. Sitting behind the mirror I couldn’t shake…
