Freedom to work and to be anything we want to be. Freedom to vote and make your voice be heard.Being in the army is volunteer, not directed by being drafted or law.Freedom of speech to say what is on our minds long as it doesn't harm another. Freedom of press to be able to write whatever you want.Freedom to travel across provincial borders as many times as we like, as well as freedom to travel or live in another country with a valid passport or visa.We are free to go to schools of our choice…

This quarter my goal is to be able to revise an essay efficiently and effectively while following a concrete plan that provides the materials to compose an essay to the best of my abilities. To complete this goal, I have devised a plan based upon recommended steps to improve the process of one's writing in Hjortshoj’s The Transition of College Writing. He explains that writers often undergo ‘’phases of planning, revising, and editing ‘’that ‘’ are therefore interwoven with composing a draft’’…

greatly elucidate the intricate panoply of student's activities, interests, virtues, appearances, and emotions to an absurd and almost laughable degree. To answer the question bluntly, I do not identify with any of these rudimentary archetypes. I refrain from ever doing so because, as a human, I am much more complex than just a "jock" who plays sports and flunks math, or a "nerd" who enjoys fantasy but is neglected of a social life. These names do not confine us in a fixed set of actions…

Smooth Criminal In Michael Jackson’s “ Smooth Criminal “, Michael is asking “Annie are you ok?” continuously and during the song he gives details about a murder that happened and continues to ask Annie if she is ok. The overall message of the song is that you should not be a bystander and step in when you can. I think this because Michael is trying to help her because nobody else is and she needs help but can’t ask for it, so therefore he has to take action. The figurative literature helped me…

passed down through. I noted the refrains that appear regularly and supposed that the original musicians would have probably improvised the “verses” and played a common refrain together. I imagined the instrumentalists showing off to each other when it was their turn to solo, just as my friends and I do when we play music for fun. In order to imitate this group style of playing, I decided to drone the “improvised” verses to the upper string and the “group” refrains to the lower string. I also…

This principle states that “productivity is increased . . . [when an individual] does the one thing for which he [or she] is naturally suited, and does it at the opportune moment” (Republic 370c). I think that individuals should be well rounded and refrain from excluding opportunities, even though it could decrease their chances of being the best individual at one skill or task. I think that despite that decreased chance of expertise in one subject area, being well-rounded is ultimately more…

Obesity within the United States has reached a level of epic proportions causing concern for millions of Americans affected by it (Lydon, Rohmeier, Yi, Mattaini, & Williams, 2011). The causes of this profound obesity epidemic include biological, genetic, psychological, and environmental factors (Amarasinghe & D 'Souza, 2012). Research suggests that there are clinical, psychological, and biological links between food and substance dependence (Ziauddeen, Farooqi & Fletcher, 2012). Factors that…

“Better by far you should forget and smile, than that you should remember and be sad". Discuss. The theme of remembrance is constantly seen in literature works and poetry. Poets depict the importance of memories, and that it is always better to remember than forget. The poems ‘Remember’, ‘Poem at 39’ and ‘A Mother in a Refugee Camp’ give diverse opinions on the significance of memory. In Rossetti's poem ‘Remember’, she is torn apart on whether to remember or not, providing a duo-view on…

Have you ever wondered how or why you may empathize with fictional characters, labeled antiheroes, created in the realms of TV and movies? The influence and appeal that these characters have on American culture and society are shaped through what each character symbolizes as well as values. In the 1960 thriller Psycho, the anti-hero Norman Bates was introduced to society. Norman, in this movie, is a middle-aged serial killer who justifies his wrongdoings by “becoming” his mother. In his eyes, it…
