Medal of Honor

detested, and if I didn’t hate them then I sure as fuck do now. To the young girls in the years below me, I was known as The Girl That Sings. I wore this badge with the kind of pride middle aged women get when tommy gets a medal in the race that everyone else also got a medal in. I was, and forever will be The Girl That Sings. In…

my biggest educational goal. That was to graduate with honors. I was called into my school’s office to learn what cord I’d be wearing. I was so shocked to find out I was graduating as a summa cum laude student. I expected myself to get magna cum laude so I was very proud of myself for exceeding my expectations. Besides being a summa cum laude graduate, I wore two other cords. These cords were from the National Honors Society and Spanish Honor Society. I knew I made my family proud because I was…

supposed to be for everyone. There is not a lot of evidence that an honor code can change your school in such a way to make it necessary. In our school i don't think that our students would support and follow an honor code which would make irrelevant. I do not think that Hotchkiss High School should have an honor code some reasons being that i don't think that kids at our school would abide by its rules. To begin with i think that the honor code would cause more problems at Hotchkiss High…

It is true that women’s rights have come a long way and improved immensely compared to past years. Women are now treated as people and are able to share their own opinions and beliefs. Women can now work, vote, play sports, have their own opinions, etc. There is not a lack of women’s rights in the 21st century; women have the same rights as men do. “Feminists such as Betty Friedan have demonised domestic slavery and lambasted discrimination. Governments have passed equal-rights acts.” (Dunlop).…

When I saw the flyer for color guard my eighth-grade year I was perplexed as it didn't specify what color guard was other than an exciting activity that lets you be apart of marching band. I was skeptical that I would actually like color guard but at the first clinic, I knew I had found a family and exciting activity to pursue. Watching the upperclassmen toss rifles, sabers, and flags with such ease and confidence made me excited to learn and achieve that level of confidence. This year will…

ceremony for the students that finished the year Cum Laude or above. All my classmates were saying it was nerdy so I complained to my mom about her making me go. After complaining to her, my mom started crying and exclaiming I needed to be proud and honor myself. She reminded me of my struggles and efforts on the road to be Magna Cum Laude. All of the extra time I put in. All my dedication. All of the frustration. Whenever I want to procrastinate or I feel lazy, I remember our conversation. It…
