Personal grooming

Field Observation KINE 100-008 Throughout this paper, I will be summarizing both my observation and interview with a personal trainer at Tysons Sport&Health. The reason I chose to interview a personal trainer is because becoming a personal trainer is the next step in my career path. This allowed me to get an inside look on how business runs and what kind of environment I will be working in. I gained a great insight into how much time and effort is put in outside of training clients in order to…

knowledge and wealth, something would still be missing… love. Love takes many forms us as human can yearn for, whether it be from family, friends or a relation with more of an intimate intent. Through personal experiences and beliefs, along with the reading of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein in class and personal readings of the Human Condition by Hannah Arendt, I came to the conclusion that a person cannot reach their full potential, find happiness or simply live without some type of human…

Depending on where we grow up, we learn to see the world differently because of distinct culture and belief systems. In the Fumie culture, those people learn to view the world from a darker perspective than the Western world. Fumie culture finds it acceptable to succumb to the lowest moments in life, for example suicide and shutting out completely from the outside world. On the other hand, Western culture does not find admiration and honor in suicide or accepting sadness. Both culture and belief…

Part One/Question 1 Wendell Berry’s augment about morality shows that morality is universal; it is not a list of rules, but a way of life to be practiced. Morality is the possibility for people to flourish in happiness, while considering the implications of those actions for future generations. The outcomes of our happiness will not be seen as instant karma for our children, but by what world is left for them to flourish in. Moreover, this world is not ours, we are only temporary residents of…

I Believe Happy mind, happy life is a saying to live by. Once you push the negative out of your life and think positive and happy, life will be so much better for yourself and others around you. I believe once you have a happy mind, you have a happy life. At the end of my sophomore year, I was stressing about every little thing you could think of to stress about. Summer was right around the corner, finals were starting, softball was starting, I was trying to manage a job that I so badly wanted…

A Roman stoic philosopher, Seneca also argued that although human beings cannot change the events, they can pursue happiness by affecting their thoughts, specifically by altering their attitude to those events. He assumed that we are rather like dogs, tied to the moving chariot. The leash is not long enough to let us go wherever we want, but it still gives us some freedom. This freedom is based on human beings’ ability to influence their perception. Pessimistic approach defends us from…

“In a medical or biological context stress is a physical, mental, or emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension” (MedicineNet.com). In the life of a college student, stress can become a part of everyday life. Whether it is studying for the next big exam, or staying up all night to finish a project, all students have different ways of coping with these stressors. Coping mechanisms used by students can be beneficial, or even make a situation worse. Students can become extremely…

Mental health and wellbeing has also shown to be affected by income, but other factors are included to show positive correlation. Based on socioeconomic status, are adolescents more at…

Thus, following a conversation at the backstage between Régis and a local dealer (the “Pablo Escobar” of Neuhof), we learn that the money that comes from drug-dealing is the way Régis chooses so as to earn an income without being subjected to the regulated work, thus retaining intellectual and physical independence. His only collaboration with the capitalist circuit will be with the bourgeoisie itself, i.e., the owners of the means of production (in the music industry, Universal Studios, in…

PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) Shock, it has the ability to leave an imprint on a person’s mind: A pattern etched into the brain as a memory. Almost as if a permanent tattoo, each one unique depending on the person and situation. Yet unlike tattoos, these memories cannot be removed, meaning even those who wish so desperately they could forget tragic times in their life cannot. In everyday life, those who experience a traumatic event, such as a brave soldier who witnesses a comrade lose…
