Kinship terminology

Courage to Speak up I have always hated high school from the day I left middle school, until my junior year of high school. For myself, it felt like being in jail; I say that because you had no freedom, you had to eat what they provided for you, had a dress code, and behave how they wanted you to. The beginning of my junior year of high school was a difficult time for myself, so I made the decision to drop out. Months had gone by, and I realized that it was a huge mistake. I returned at the…

One goal I have for my freshman year is to succeed in my introductory courses. I do not want to just pass each course; I want to really understand the content and nature of each subject that I am currently taking because each course after the fall quarter builds upon the previous one. My goal GPA is 3.5 or better to be on par for medical school acceptance. I hope to become involved in research this year. I plan to apply to the STARS Scholars Program. I also applied as an undergraduate lab…

In secondary one, many of us are nervous to be going to high school and being with others that we weren’t necessarily with in elementary school. For me, though, it wasn’t the case; most of the graduating class from my elementary school also came to my high school. I was in a special program, The Accelerated Learning Program, with 29 other students from all over Laval. There were three others that came to my elementary school who were also in the program, one of them being my best friend now. The…

According to the bible, God The reason as to why God allows evil may never be known, but others have arrived at the conclusion that God must want to teach people a lesson. Another theory is that he literally cannot or will not do anything to stop evil from happening because he gave us free will.…

My concussion had ruined me. Returning to school at the end of my eighth grade year after missing three months was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. I was removed from school the week before Thanksgiving, and returned the week of Valentine 's day. During that time I spent my days resting in a dark room with the only light coming in through the small space inbetween the curtains. The pain was constant, everything made it worse. The sound of a vacuum cleaner downstairs, the cars passing by…

Billie Jean King once said “Sports teaches you character, it teaches you to play by the rules, it teaches you to know what it feels like to win and lose- it teaches you about life”. Being part of a sports team, we experience competitiveness, commitment, and perseverance; being involved in something that requires us to compete in these situations teaches us success, dedication, leadership, failure, and hard work. The more we grow as a person, the more we realize that not only can those qualities…
