brother was already in the kitchen and was asking for his daily drink (milk). I withdrew my stool, opened the fridge and pulled out the milk jug with all my might. Then I climbed up like a monkey to grab a cup ( and sugar, as every child needs sugar with everything.) I poured, it spilled, I poured, it spilled. However, after my third attempt I did it. I gave it to him (after I had some of it) and he savoured it. Then, before I knew it, he was asleep and curled up identical a cat.…

Last summer of 2017, I took an amazing seven day long trip to Hawaii with my brother, parents, and my grandparents. We had so much fun at the resort we stayed at called the Grand Wailea, there at the resort we checked into our amazing villa that is unforgettable and luxurious with the amazing view and pools. Also we went to the relaxing beaches next to the contraption of pools where we spent most of our time during the day. Finally, we went to an astonishing tourist attraction, the twin falls,…

The first couple of months of school were quite challenging as I was trying to handle the workload and learn the language. Although I spoke some English upon arrival to the country, my language skills were certainly nowhere near what one might consider college adequate. However, it was not the language barrier that was of utmost concern. Shortly before I moved to the country, my father became strangely ill. By the time I started attending college his health was still not improving, and no doctor…

After reading this book I thought to myself that I have never really experienced anything as traumatic as Sittser, or really anything traumatic compared to his story and the stories of those he had shared. Then, after that thought I then remembered that toward the beginning of the book he explicitly stated that everyone’s pain is different and cannot be compared. In addition, through out the book he consistently spoke about the difference between a fracture and an amputation. He explained that a…

Universality is the ability to use one company’s hardware in combination with another company’s hardware. The idea of universality was supported by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak who built his first computers for Apple, the Apple I and the Apple II, to be compatible with all other company’s data and connection types. Steve Wozniak’s feelings about openness are highlighted in an essay written by Tim Wu called “Father and Son” which also details how Wozniak’s partner Steve Jobs felt the complete…

their talents. I find this topic very interesting because sports is always going to be around, from pop warner levels to the professionals. I’ve recently been grateful enough to be a collegiate athlete. It is a hard task to balance being a student and an athlete because you are constantly working on your craft and studying. I would have certainly loved the idea of being paid to do what I loved while studying in the field of my interest. As I become more aware of both sides of the argument I tend…

Constantine’s victory at the Milvian Bridge over the fellow but rival ruler of the Western Roman empire, Maxentius and his army, became a great triumph for the consolidation and growth of Constantine’s power and with it the development of Christianity. David Potter, author of Constantine the Emperor, argues that Flavius Valerius Aurelius Constantinus Augustus, or more commonly known as Constantine, “is best known as the emperor of Rome who converted to Christianity and in doing so made it…

like Asperger’s Disorder? I was lucky enough to spend an entire day with an amazing fifteen year old named Blake who suffers from Asperger’s. I knew some of the characteristics that come along with this disorder, but at the same time I am not sure what to expect from a teenage boy, who in theory is expected to constantly be in social situations. I was a little nervous, because I know this disorder can alter his emotions very rapidly; he has bad days, and he has good days. I am hoping this is one…

When I woke up, the other side of the bed was cold. My fingers stretch out, seeking Lucy’s warmth, but finding only the absence of her presence.it was a typical day for me. Wake up, eat breakfast, feed Lucy and walk to school with two heavy books on my hands. I was considered the ‘nerdy and shy’ girl at school. I realized senior year in high school only meant learning to me while I was focused on graduating my peers thought about it as ‘the time of their lives’ where they had the chance to party…

Many people assume you join an organization because you already have knowledge of what the organization is about, but I believe even if you don’t have the knowledge before joining doesn’t mean you can’t join. For me, I had trouble fitting in at the Engineering Club at my High School. I didn’t have any knowledge about engineering before joining the club, but that didn’t stop me, I was still interested to find out what it was all about. You might ask why join this club and well you were able to…
