Ready an' Willing

much this trip was about to affect me and my way of thinking. We were just a group of college kids, ready and willing, but little did we know what experience lay ahead. By being willing to do whatever was necessary to make a difference, we were able to affect the lives of many people by sharing the love of Christ in a practical way. We pulled up to the church on a Monday afternoon and quickly piled out of the vans. We were all ready to get settled in, but that was not the plan Carrie, the outreach coordinator for Restored, had. She met us on the front walk and warmly welcomed us. She was excited that there were so many college students ready to do whatever she could think up. She had us all pile back…

people chewing with their mouth open, or people being lazy at work while I am working hard. I would say though that my number one pet peeve is being late-for anything. In my life being on time is the key to success, and if you’re late for anything you have lost at the game of life. Some people have wondered where this pet peeve of mine has developed. It most likely was born from living with my dad and his military way of thinking, from participating in high school theatre for four years, and…

The participants are indeed part of a global community faculty. It is clear that the participants make sense of the global community faculty in an intrinsic sense of value. The negotiation with the administrative of the institution seems to be accentuated in importance for each case. Having this results in hand in combination with the literacy, specifically of Blunt-Kokhuis (2000), who presents the many administrative and institutional obstacles a faculty member has to overcome, we can conclude…

The bow of the well-sized tow boat sliced into the motionless Lake Shasta water like scissors trimming a piece of paper. A distinct hum of the motor vibrated the floor as the boat hit occasional patches of water as rough as turbulence in an airplane. “Tell me you guys are ready!” my friend’s dad announced clear enough to be heard over the motor. My friend and I immediately exchanged glances as to determine who would attempt wakeboarding first. “Connor wants to try it!” my friend exclaimed as he…

The history of fashion can be traced back to the beginning of the 19th century but I have chosen to write about the 20th-21st century. There are two basic modern fashion categories Haute Couture and Ready to Wear. The difference between Haute couture and Ready to wear is that Haute Couture is custom made whereas ready to wear clothing is made in big bundles of the same thing. Haute Couture is French for ‘high sewing’ or ‘high dressmaking’ or ‘high fashion’. Haute Couture is exclusive custom…

Fast fashion is way more affordable than haute couture and designer ready-to-wear. Fast fashion does not have an excellent quality of clothing compare to designer pieces and in general on piece can last up to two seasons. This type of fashion has become so popular in this century because it gives the middle class opportunity of having fashion on their hands. So what is unique of fast fashion? Its secret is to make catwalk styles affordable, adapting rather than copying labels such as Prada and…

The day we landed we went to the home my parent have in Islamabad. We were all really tired and jet lagged, but we knew we had to get rest before our first day of relief effort the next morning. I stayed up most night talking with my cousins who had come to stay with us for a week to help with the clean up efforts. We really didn’t talk much about the earthquake because we were catching up about each others lives because they live in Pakistan and we hadn’t seen them for 3 years. Nobody really…

participating in the destruction of Polish Jewry. To answer this historical question, Browning uses the judicial testimonies of the men who served. He asserts that these testimonies contain “unusually vivid and detailed testimony [that] stands in stark contrast to the formulaic and transparently dishonest testimony so often encountered” (pg.210). Because of their accuracy, these documents allowed Browning to “probe issues in a way that is not possible from the records of other cases” (pg.210).…

I woke up that day energized and ready to go right at 7 o 'clock. My excitement was beyond belief.That day I was truly happy. The only problem was I still had to go to class. That saddened me a small bit, but needless to say, I was still going to go about my day excited. After I finished my two-and-a-half hour biology lab, I was ready for a nice little nap. I realized that sleep and a lot of water and Gatorade were going to be crucial for my success. Upon waking up, I missed multiple messages…
