going to school. In Vietnam, they have a very low status economy compare to the U.S. I converted one hundred U.S dollars into Vietnamese dong and that translate to around over two million dong. With that amount of money you can enjoy yourself in a fancy hotel in Saigon. My point is that if the Nike pays the Vietnamese workers the same amount in America, they may turn out to be millionaires in Vietnam. Norberg once said “If I was an anti-globalist, I would stop complaining about Nike’s bad wage.…

My personal experiences allowed me to be the woman I am today. Everyday life is a new challenge for me, but aside from the bad things that happened you will always have family that is strong enough to help you get through hard times. My life comes with personal experiences, everyday challenges and having a great support system…

September 21st, the junior and senior class of my school went to Franklinton High School—where we were introduced to post-secondary institutions such as state universities and local community colleges. I admittedly already had a fair idea of what I planned on doing after school. My “carefully thought-out plan” was this: I would go to Northshore Technical Community College in the summer to get my CNA so that I can gain the patient-care experience necessary for my later plans for college. I would…

MEMOIR My first day of school began more than 10 years ago and by that time I was in my native country named Honduras. The school were very poor that it could only afford two teachers by that time. I was a quitted kid in the classroom and I used to get distracted all the time by the girls in my classroom, I used to share my snack with the girls and with the teacher. Having starting my schooling at small age were one of my big dream because I was born with what I wanted to do in the planet since…

Teen pregnancy has been around for many years, but throughout my junior high and high school years it was more noticeable. I can remember being in junior high and there were a few girls in high school who were pregnant. All my friends and I would hear many rumors about the girls who were pregnant and then judge them based on the rumors. There were rumors going around that the girls “got around”, the girls who got pregnant partied all the time and that’s why they were pregnant, they slept with so…

Looking back on my life, it is easy to comprehend the turning points that led me to where I am now. Graduating high school, going to college, and all of the other coming of age events that signify the transition to adulthood. But all of that does not compare with what came after. When I graduated high school, I believed that I had my future perfectly planned, indicative of the arrogance of most any eighteen year old young man. I went off to college to study engineering and did not even consider…

ginormous gap in between my teeth, I was the perfect friend. I did not start connecting with kids my age until middle school. It was there where good ol’ puberty actually hit me like a dump truck. It was also there where I meet one of the best friends I have ever had. Her name was Karin and we both complimented each other’s quirkiness and I guess that is how we connected. We grew progressively closer as we went through middle school and eventually high school. High school is the glorified…

If Steve Harvey had asked me to tell him my story, I would tell him about my determination and leadership. I came from a small private school and throughout my years of sports, I fell in love with volleyball. If I had walked into tryouts without putting in any of the work I had put in, I wouldn't have made it. I worked five days a week for at least three hours whether it be private lessons at nine at night or open gyms early in the morning. While doing this I managed volunteering at a summer…

teenage single mother is often frowned upon. My mother has proved society and all others doubting her, wrong. People really don’t understand the struggle, and how tough it is for a single parent mother to care for her child. My father passed away when I was only five years old, so he wasn’t around to help my mother out as I got older. Although, it is a tough experience growing up in a single parent household, it is not as bad as people make it out to be. Yes, my mother’s income was the only one…
