Jack woke up startled by the racket of pans surrounding the kitchen. He ran downstairs grabbing a piece of crunchy toast with gooey jelly on it while waving bye to his family. “Hey Jack, did you bring the soccer ball,” Questioned Sally, “No, sorry I think we should play Truth or Dare instead,” replied Jack. “You sure I hear that nobody has played that game ever since…

    Donald Trump is a complicated leader. His leadership style is a mixture of transformational, charismatic, and authoritative. What makes him complicated is that he does not stick to one, which is a good thing to show versatility, but shows uncertainty for the public. That is because the public do not know how he would respond to certain situation.

    In the short story, Jock Culture , Robert Lipsyte discusses his interview with the Columbia University crew coach, Bill Stowe and the difference of what he called “jokes” and pukes”.

    is how with this new technological age we create a distance between ourselves and those around us. Wampole has us to question whether we are sincere about our actions or words when we interact with people. "Do I communicate primarily through inside jokes and pop culture references?

    Colombiana and am finally proud to say so. Until my two month visit to Bucaramanga ,Colombia I was embarrassingly ashamed of my ethnicity to the point where I felt the need to tell anyone I met that I was half-white so I would be “safe” from stereotypical jokes. Years of ridicule took its’ toll on my 12 year old self and made me resent my culture, ethnicity, and overall self. I hated bubbling Hispanic…
