When thinking of successful people you automatically think about how hard people have worked to be successful. In the Outliers book "Malcolm Gladwell" argues that we should look at the world that surrounds successful people. For instance their culture, family, experiences, and their upbringing.

Ethel Provo was born and raised in Ramer, Alabama, a small town outside of Montgomery Alabama. Ethel wasn’t born in a hospital; she was born at home by a midwife. The midwife was a close friend of the family, and delivered most of the babies in the area at that time. Back when Ethel was growing up Ramer was a small town where everyone knew everyone. People didn’t bother locking doors back then, because they felt safe and trusted their neighbors. She said there wasn’t much to steal, because…

into downtown. Student housing for the Waterbury Campus sounds like a great idea to revitalize Waterbury. There are already many special things in place that will help make Waterbury a thriving city. For example, the public transportation system (city bus, train station) and the many beautiful buildings with historic architecture. However, there needs to be many changes to the city for students to actually want to come live here for a semester. This city and it’s downtown was at one point a…

Chabelo Have you ever had a pet that was almost like your friend or another family member? Well I have had one and it was a mini Labrador named Chabelo. I know you are probably asking why Chabelo?

The problem within that statement is not based entirely on which race is poorer or less privileged than the other but problems within cities and government to cause segregations between the rich and the poor. Cities are havens for the poor to reside as they having cheaper housing in some areas more so than the country side and suburban areas. But the…

It was my 4th grade year and I just pulled off the most complicated plan that I have ever made. The plan was to get into a “jackpot zone” known as the owls nest in Maple Grove Elementary and take everything that was there along with four of my other friends and two other “friends”. Schools out and everyone is packing at their lockers getting ready to go home. My four friends and I were making our way to the owl’s nest a place where good students got rewarded for excellent behavior but we were…

OWW The horrendous noise of everyone saying "BYE MUM BYE DAD" as the bus drove away from the school and on the way to school camp pierced my ears. I felt like having a rest until my best friend Lily yelled at me even though we were sitting together.

Later that…

people who work in white collar jobs need to arrive with that white collar looking fresh and crisp or they're in for some double takes and snickers. That's why so many people will go half-and-half on their commute by taking public transit, a subway or bus, into work and then riding their folding bike home.
