If you ask most people, they will say that you reach adulthood at the age of 18. I believe that I started this transition at 16. Two months before my 16th birthday on a Saturday morning, my mom and I got into the car and she drove me around to the various stores, restaurants, and recreation centers where I told her I wouldn’t mind working. Before I left her in the car she told me that to get a job I must confidently walk up to the nearest employee and ask for the manager. I still had no idea…

Coming Up to the Tee The aroma of freshly cut grass fills my nose as I step up to the tee. I swing my club back slowly, blocking out the millions of thoughts running through my mind. Swiftly, I swing down at the ball propelling it forward, straight towards the fairway. Clubs in tow, I head towards my ball as I begin my round of golf. Ever since my dad introduced me to the sport, I have been an avid golfer. It has instilled in me many key values that have molded me into the person…

Same-sex parent families Blended families help to improve society and families within the society. An article on the Global Post about single parents says, “You may have to adjust to living on less money than you are accustomed. This can result in juggling bills and possibly working more than one job. Working multiple jobs leaves little time to spend with your child, which could result in the parent feeling guilty” (The Disadvantages of Being a Single Parent & Raising a Child, 2009). It is good…

Robert M. Hutchins, an educational philosopher, states that, “The object of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.” I agree that education is a tool that we use to prepare us for life. What is the purpose of Education? It is often said that education is just remembering facts long enough to take a test. In reality, it is learning skills to use in everyday life. Education is, in essence, learning how to learn. Personally, I didn’t learn how to learn from…
