Legally Blonde

The first Mexican land inhabited by Americans was known as Texas. Stephan Austin acquired this land legally under the condition that he bring 300 Roman Catholic families, ban slavery in the territory, and make everyone a Mexican citizen. In this territory, however, there were 30,000 people, only a few Roman Catholic families, and a couple of slaves. Tension…

This is how he legally gained control over Germany. His power and ease in gaining control couldn’t really be connected to one certain event, but instead many small factors throughout time. Hitler rose to power by using the flaws in the law and loopholes, things outside his control and his own skills to his advantage. (Howes, Kelly King. pg 4) Hitler was not only against Jews, but also a race he called gays and gypsies. He wanted to form his own race the, "Aryan," which was blonde hair and…

social prestige. Schools of this much stature are except to hold and create the most intelligent. So, isn’t it ironic that a majority of students attending these “prestige” schools are culprits of grade inflation. Whether it is in movies like, “Legally Blonde” or “Gilmore Girls,” Ivy League schools are perceived to be better academically successful. Therefore, when the students do not fulfill that school’s potential or expectation it causes professors to make up for their loss. In an article…

often enforces stereotypes in an effort to get a laugh out of the audience. The problem is that even if the audience is enjoying the film, the groups that are stereotyped in the film will suffer consequences from society. For example, in the movie Legally Blonde, character Elle Woods is extremely stereotypical towards gay men in one scene. Elle Woods is a lawyer in a court case against Brooke Windham who has been accused of murdering her husband. Primary “witness” Enrique Salvatore says that he…

referred to as “Jews” during this time, and quickly escalated to a full blown genocide. Adolf Hitler, Dictator of Germany during this time period, created a political party in 1920 titled the “Nazi Party.” This party believed that Germans, specifically blonde haired people with blue eyes, were essentially the “perfect” race; meaning, all other races were inferior to them. They mainly targeted Jews, because in their eyes, the Jewish people were the reason behind why certain situations were going…

What was your opinion on Greek Life before you joined your sorority? I thought Greek Life was very fake. The girls seemed to want to be trophy wives, etc. The picture I got was a lot of drinking, hazing, and mean girls. What made you decide to join a sorority? Part of me had always wondered if the stereotype was true, and a lot of my friends from high school were now sorority women. When I met some of the girls who are now my sisters, I really enjoyed talking to them. They made me feel like not…

Ever since I was a little girl, I was asked “What do I want to be when I grow up?” At first I always used to say a lawyer because of Legally Blonde, but then as I grew older I thought I wanted to do something with animals. I realize now that I could never put an animal down and my heart couldn 't take seeing an injured animal. I’ve decided now that becoming a registered nurse (RN) is the career that I want to pursue. Being an RN is a rewarding career because I will be taking care of people…

performances. In eleventh grade, I finally participated in one of the school productions as a member of the cast, with the role of Deputy #2 in Night of the Living Dead. In the spring of that same year, I was cast as D.A. Joyce Riley in the production of Legally Blonde. Recently in our production of The Pink Panther Strikes Again, I played the part of McLaren. I believe that I have greatly improved how comfortably I present myself in front of groups of people, and I hope to continue my…

Ever since I saw the movie Legally Blonde when I was five years old, I dreamed of joining a sorority. I loved the idea of having sisters who would always have my back. Thirteen years later, I was a little skeptical of the whole process and I was not the only one either. My family and friends disapproved of sororities. They saw it as “just buying friends.” Some even thought they were “degrading to women.” However, I decided to ignore their criticism and live my five year old dream. I did not want…

In my first semester at Valencia College, I have met many brilliant minds. The people I met here do not deserve the stigma that centers around attending a community college. This school is their second chance. Often enough it is their only chance. The students I have met here have different stories. I met people who were detoured in high school and Valencia is their only hope to graduate from an university. I have met people who entered the service when they turned…
