Things I’ve Done for others “Helping someone do something isn’t just helping them, it’s helping you.” Have you ever done anything for anyone? Do you know how remarkable it feels? Just take a look; if we start helping others, and encouraging others the more united we become. My father works at Mars Inc. and occasionally they do charity work for the offices. Last year (2015) we collected items for nourishment for the less fortunate. We set up a stand, at the entrance of Wal-mart, and quite a…

Giving back and helping others has been my number one goal in life which also has influenced my career choice as a psychiatrist. My mother always told me that it's okay to do things for others but to make sure it's from the kindness of my heart. I think I have contributed to my community to the best of my ability. I first started wanting to help others once I entered the third grade, so I joined girl scouts. In my group every year we would do a program that helped us give the less fortunate a…
As a whole, I do not believe that this was my best speech, but there were parts of this speech that I believe that I did better on than the last speech. Like B.B. King I love to learn and hope that in my next speech I will notice new areas of growth in my speaking ability. My reflection begins with eye contact and body movement, moving on to the use of voice, and ending with the organization of the speech. Opening with delivery, the thing that stuck out the most was that my eye contact was poor…
I have travelled near and far, and to places in between but the best journey of all is the one that I took with HH. What a bold character he was, a beautiful musician. My journey began shortly after his but mine lasted much longer. In fact, I am still travelling. Oh how magical it all has been and how empowered I feel now. HH and I belonged to the same organization, well known as The League. I am still a part of it, HH is not due to his struggles with confidentiality and integrity. But enough of…
desolate. Buildings that were brimming with people were now crumbled ruins. My family sold our possessions on the black market so we could escape. We jumped the border into Pakistan where the Taliban had not yet attacked. An opportunity came up for one of us to go to Australia; I wanted mum to go cause I had almost settled in to Pakistani life and wanted to stay. But my father sent me instead. That was the last time I saw my parents. I have no idea where they are, if they are ok, or if they are…
Intro 1: Dr. Angela Lee Duckworth once said: “Grit is passion or perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with you future, day in and day out – not just for a day, not just for a month, but for years – to make that future a reality.” This quote has a deep significant for all the students who are trying to pursue their passion. Every student has a right to learn to become “gritter”, and to develop their skills to fulfill their potential. To become better…
someone feels as they aren’t welcome and aren’t the same, it can push them to pursue something different or want to change how they are perceived. Although not all of the characters in the story changed, but they all have felt denial and disdain, in one form or another. I believe Alice Walker used this sense of rejection to show how the characters really felt and show their development into who they became. Firstly, Maggie is the more damaged character of the family. She was caught in the house…
different colors, I feel like names have the same effect. However, I feel like those things change when people assign me nicknames. Every nickname has a different perception. Even though these feelings have evolved throughout my life, as well as me gaining new perspectives of what my name means through individual experiences, I will always love my name. To me, Ellie feels like sitting shotgun in your dad’s truck singing Bennie and the Jets with the windows down. It’s making pancakes by yourself…
