I proceeded to walk cautiously towards the towering obsidian gate. My 7 month voyage to Hell was finally coming to a close. But my real journey had just begun. 7 months ago, I was hired as a journalist for the world renowned broadcasting company WNN, or World News Network. This company specialized in reporting a variety of current events, whether it be above, on, or under the world itself. I had been recruited by the president of WNN to collect information from under the world, in other words…

This is why karate classes often work because you 'll see the same people over and over again. But, overall, I 'm very anti-classes. If you are paying for something it is usually not the best place to find friends (with the exception of college). Unless the class has the same group of people who meet frequently (like a college Salsa classes), you won 't make them your friends. So dance class, work out classes, etc. are all really a waste of your time. Unfortunately, these businesses, like a lot…

Naseeb Kaur – I I know what it's like to make people happy. Admittedly I didn't mean to walk head-first into a glass door like that Pakistani Engineer in his college video, or trip down a 100ft bore well like nation’s beloved pranky Prince of Kurukshetra, but beggars can't exactly be choosers, and so I make fun of people around me and sometimes of myself to make people laugh. To see smile on all those faces, well, for a brief moment of time is worth living. This is the same reason why I write…

in daily life. Origami, the craft of folding paper, and ikebana, the skill of arranging flowers, remain popular hobbies among all ages in Japan (Matthews 518). Another art form, martial arts, has taken root in Japanese culture such as kendo, judo, karate, aikido, and sumo wrestling (Matthews 518). The Japanese government refuses to acknowledge the diversity of the country (Kingston). This ignorance may have led to the declining population of Japan. Ninety-eight percent of the population remain…

People and music are inseparable as Macdonald (2008, 39) argues that ‘We are all musical. Every human being has a biological, social and cultural guarantee of musicianship.’ It is hardly possible to live without hearing music in daily life, and people has been building musical identity since they are born by negotiating through it. Thus, music is a significant matter in personal identity and analysis of one’s life can reveal one’s musical identity. This essay will demonstrate the analysis of my…

This is a qualitative study observing a secondary group within a formal organization. The social institution chosen for the place of observation is a middle school within the Rockford area. The class I have chosen to conduct my observation is in an 8th grade Language Arts classroom; the purpose of this class is to develop the reading and writing skills students will need to progress into higher levels of education. My first observation took place on Wednesday, November 16th from 2:43 P.M. to…

cartoons will be appropriate. The supporters of this claim say that violence is a learned trait and many learn it through the shows they watch. There is also another side to this argument. Some people say that kids will always be kids and always try karate moves and hit whether or not they are exposed to television violence. The cartoons serve as an outlet for children to release from the real world and use their imagination. Acting out these cartoons give the children power and importance at a…

RED= Call to Adventure (Departure) BLUE= Refusal of the call (Departure) PURPLE= The Beginning of the Adventure (Departure) ORANGE= Road of Trials (Initiation) PINK= The Experience with Unconditional Love (Initiation) GREEN= The Ultimate Boon (Initiation) DARK GREEN= Rescue from Without (Return) MAGENTA= The Crossing or Return Threshold (Return) The airport was crowded and we were bustling our way through the crowds of people to get to our terminal. “We are going to be late, Emily!” my…

not be complete without the bonsai tree, which comes in all shapes, sizes and colors. For bonsai beginners, the juniper species, in shades of green, is the easiest to shape and maintain. Juniper miniatures start and 4 inches and go up to the 18 inch Karate Kid species. For color accents, try some blossoming bonsai such as the flowering weeping Barbados cherry for hues of red and pink. For a darker colored Japanese plant, the acer not only adds color, but texture contrast to the bonsai with it's…

Colleges always face a lot of scrutiny when it comes to how they are run. In recent years, the First Amendment has come into play on campuses across the nation. Many articles have been written defending both for and against restrictions, defending the use of trigger warnings in class, and explaining what this controversy is really about. While the colleges themselves have the power to choose what they do, they must consider what experience they want to provide for their students. What is Free…
