My World

determined individual. He has a boundless passion for discovery that soon possesses every aspect of his life as he peels back the layers of humanity and tries to understand the abstract concepts of the soul. Victor isolates himself from the rest of the world as he develops a deeper connection with his studies than any other connection he’s had before. His thirst for knowledge soon turns into a craving for something more as he strives to play a godlike role in his creation of the monster. The…

the MWBC grounds that my world would change forever. I didn’t know it then, but that cozy little patch of land in the middle of nowhere would become the biggest influence in my life. I had no inkling that the people I would meet would become like a second family to me. If I had it wouldn’t have taken me so long to get there. Growing up I was very wary of summer camp. The idea of sleeping in the woods surrounded by bugs and rodents gave me the creeps. So when a lady at my church asked me…

between my teeth? What should I blog about? We as people don’t like to think too much about the big unknowns. They are too complex and the fact that we may never have answers to them leaves us with an uneasy feeling, hence why many of us choose to ignore these big unknowns. We occupy our minds with the little unknowns, questions to which we will eventually find answers to. There is one question though that does not fall…

breaking free from my mother’s arms to travel and discover the wonders of the of world. At Pace University, I realized that childhood dreams do come true sometimes. Being accepted into Pace university was moment filled with pride for my parents and me. I disembarked in New York soon after and was warmly welcomed by peers, faculty and staff. Then, I took upon myself to arm with the best and the latest in business and management and shifted my mental makeup to focus on academics. My experience at…

In my opinion, it is cheating when one gains through lazy means. Or, cheating takes an unfair advantage over another’s trust. Of course it is bad to take advantage of one’s trust, or, to gain an unfair advantage through lazy or stolen means. However, just…

This may seem vague or even common sense, but I believe there is nothing more important in the world than the decisions we make. Every day there are billions of decisions being made that all effect one another and everything around them, deciding what will happen to the Earth. Every decision is important and can decide the fate of the world, such as the decision of a British soldier named Henry Tandey in World War I. His one small decision to be humane and spare a German soldier, a young Adolf…

people reflect on their childhood they are consumed with feelings of nostalgia and yearning. They are typically faced with memories of a more carefree and joyous time period. I on the other hand, am faced with memories of war, struggle, and strength. My life has not been a fairytale, nor has it been a complete nightmare. I like to believe that all the obstacles I have been faced with has shaped me into the person I am today. Everyday represents a new struggle to surpass yesterday's maximum…

It might be the biggest cliché in the world: girl goes abroad with family, experiences new, crazy adventures, and happily returns home with self-discovery, and memorable, yet hilarious stories. It was basically the plot of National Lampoon’s European Vacation, where the family encounters one challenge after another as they travel through England, France, and Germany, except it was my family. Although there were various obstacles throughout the trip, I learned a lot about life: culture, history,…

completing my second atrocity. As I worked, I thought to myself, “Why? What possessed me to bring such a hideous demon into this world, and then turn my back on it long enough for it to become corrupt by us humans and our sinister predisposition?” It was starting to get quite cold here in Geneva. My spirits were lifted, however, when I heard the news a few days ago that Elizabeth had pooled together enough money to visit me here in this atrocious place. This horrible place that had consumed…

Everything in my world changed the first time I walked into the spirit world. The beauty is indescribable, and I saw all the spirits that walk the earth and those who do not. The ones who do not are faded and look like they come out of books, the rest had names over their head. I saw that after my mother walk into the world next to me. “Isn't it beautiful, Earth is so much more pretty though. So this is the first step, now you have to think about what you want to learn. My thing is reading minds…
