To continue, Golding presents a democracy through Ralph by how he was elected as chief, his way of ruling and his priorities. Firstly, Ralph was elected as chief through a vote to see who should be chief. This is extremely important because the main basis of democracy is that the leaders are voted into their position, similar to how Ralph was voted into his position as chief. Ralph was merely picked because of his charisma, and his leadership qualities, similarly to real life democratic…

but people from all ages come to support our athletes. Our friday nights were not spent out with friends but at our school cheering on the team. Sports are part of SK everyday. “Playing baseball was as quotidian as eating black bean and rice and roasting a pig on Christmas eve.” (Gonzalez Echevarria in Sanabria, 322) I was able to relate to this quote because so much of my childhood revolved around sports. The neighboring school Stamford is considered our rival. They are our biggest competitors…

Steam puffed out of manhole covers that dotted the road. Penn Station came out at an intersection where the air was filled with the melody of car horns, voices and footsteps. Authentic New York style pizza was something I had always wanted to try. Across from Penn Station was this little, uncrowded restaurant that served some very addicting garlic knots. It was impossible to just eat one. The pizza comes in large, thin slices which had just the right amounts of sauce and cheese. It was a…

Satan’s evil corruption occurs through another tragic area involving human sacrifices mentioned in the Bible. Early masochism and other cruelties appear to have erupted during this time. “…innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions” (Ps 106:37-39). One of the main gods that instigated this…

Many controversial topics stem from religion and plague society on a daily basis. Yet one issue that cannot be disputed is the freedom of practicing any religion one sees fit, no matter the age of that person. Parents, along with all other guardians, do not possess the right to force their child to partake in a religion they have explicitly stood against. The consequences of forcing children into a religion are that it inhibits their development, hurts their overall outlook on life, and violates…

Dietitian of Canada (2014) defined dietitians as highly qualified professionals educated in science, management, human development, and health of populations. The roles of dietitian are the “assessment of nutrition and nutritional conditions and the treatment and prevention of nutrition related disorders by nutritional means.” (College of Dietitian of Ontario, (CDO), 2014) “Dietetic Practice includes activities for which members use food & nutrition-specific knowledge, skills and judgment…

Dreams can be seen as a trip into a fantasy, to relax, or even allow your unconscious to go through with fantasies that your conscious mind may not accept. Yet, sometimes dreams can be terrifying; they can leave you without any idea if what you are seeing is fantasy or reality. I remember, since childhood, of being told, ‘if you punch yourself and don’t feel pain then you’re sleeping’. But what if you pinch yourself and feel it; “...pain can be found in dreams and, thus, the saying that pitching…

Pastor and author Rick Warren says that the “most exhausting activity is pretending to be what you know you aren’t.” I wholeheartedly agree with this, and it is one of the reasons that I decided to work on eliminating my constant use of emotional masks that attempt to project a constantly happy, fun persona. Specifically, I wanted to stop wearing a happy mask all of the time because it created difficulties with emotional expression. I was active in working to improve my chosen behavior, even…
