Know Nothing

have learned techniques over our careers to help pick out non-verbals. Her facial expressions usually tell me everything I need to know. Without a word I know if she is happy, sad or mad at me (especially the mad part). We actually perform quite a bit of non-verbals to express our feelings with each other. That doesn’t mean we never talk; it only suggests that we know each other enough to be able to give a look, body movement or touch to show how we…

way gives a false reality to women (Kendzior 205). In House Bunny, the directors sketched the same effect. Starting with where Shelley spent the majority of her life, the playboy mansion, the movie exploits these superficial qualities. Everybody knows what the playboy mansion stands for, good-looking girls, constantly in the party setting with a lot of hot guys around. It makes sense for an ex-playboy bunny to help transform a group of misfits into popular sorority girls who everybody…

listen to what we are saying. If we know the child or young person well, we may know how to speak to them specifically in a way we know they will understand. For the context of the information, we would only use words and terms that we know that they would understand. If we were talking to a very young child, we would need to use simple vocabulary that they understand and not complicate what we are saying. We can do this by not adding in things they do not need to know, and only telling them…

I was a teenager in high school just like you guys and it was a tough path to overcome. I am here to help you through your high school journey and to give you advice on how me and you kids can conquer it. During, my time in high school it was difficult and stressful with the amount homework or projects given.

life and still figuring out if they are orientated or disorientated. Through friends and ones’ goals in life can enable them to find their way. Finding our way and knowing who we are is very difficult because sometimes we tend to think that we already know who we are, but along the way we discover that what we thought to be is not that. Ahmed started “of how is it that we come to find our way in a world that acquires new shapes, depending on which way we turn” (1). Society wants us to abide by…

Why waste time/money on staff training if you don’t know what, if anything, your staff are learning? Investing time and effort in training employees (or volunteers/partners) and then never verifying how much they actually learned is short-sighted, penny-wise and pound foolish (a.k.a stupid). Certainly, everyone takes it for granted that certifications have a test associated with them. First Aid, Lifeguarding, WMIS, CPA and driver’s licenses all require testing to confirm that a minimum level…

lunch with them or just be there for them when they need someone to talk to. I could also take time to ask them about their weekend, nights or holidays to make sure they had a good one. I want the students to know that I am there for them no matter what. In my classroom I want the students to know that they are appreciated and loved. They might come from a family where there isn 't a lot of support so I want to be that support for them. I will show them that they can do all they set their minds…

does for others. He would do anything for people he loves, because he knows it would make their lives better. I am not that kind of person, but I want you to be. You could give something to her, to me, to those children in the quarter. You could give them something that I never could. They expect it from me, but not from you. The white people out there are saying that you don’t have it-that you’re a hog, not a man. But I know they are wrong.” (Gaines 191) A Lesson Before Dying is about Grant…

I stare at the blank screen in front of me, with the words “Hi, I am Bishwa.” Unsure of what to do next. Unsure of what words that will follow. Getting someone else to know about me is harder than I thought. But then I look around myself – around my drawers, closet, my desk, my bed. All of them are in a particular condition. And I begin to wonder. What do these things say about me? So rather than telling about myself, I’ll save myself the trouble and describe these things. My desktop screen.…

Art is a form of self expression that allows individuals to express themselves with creativity. Moreover, art is intended to be appreciated for its beauty or emotional power. There are many different types of art. Some forms of art include a painting, sculpture, photograph, architecture, music, and dance. As a matter of fact, art can also be interpreted in many ways because art is open to interpretation. The three pieces of art I analyzed were the beaded crown, George Washington’s painting , and…
