Rubbing

She could see my pale face and knew I was psyching myself out. “Aw! You can do it bubs! Don’t sell yourself short. I know you’ll kill it,” she said rubbing my back and pulling me into an embrace. “Yeah… I guess,” I said glumly. My mom holds up my music while I frantically finger through it. I watch as the line shortens too quickly… “Taylor Summers!” the woman called out. My…

together the quality outcome would be great, but providers would not be held accountable for the quality and cost of their patients care. They have complete control on care quality and cost. Is this an effective care model because specialists are rubbing shoulders with primary care physicians? The harmony among them and patients are to be praise because when PCP and Specialists work together, the care can be delivered in every layer of our society, but the most important question here is that…

The massacre at Columbine High School on April 20 of 1999 was one of the most tragic school shootings in American history at the time. From almost the moment the media aired the event, speculation began as to why Dylan Harris and Eric Klebold would commit such horrific acts. Surveillance camera and home video images flooded the news and the minds of people watching them, imprinting ideas of “bullied outcasts, clad in trench coats, seeking revenge on ‘jocks’ and minorities” (James, 2006).…

The last rays of sun streaked through the purple clouds at a sharp angle as I cut behind the old warehouse. I jammed my hands in the pockets of my worn denim jacket and skirted the thin line of trees headed toward the Ordox. The Ordox was nothing really; just a clearing beside the tracks behind mostly abandoned factories. Sheltered from view by the old buildings, the hard packed dirt and cracked concrete looked like a moonscape. It was another world; our world. In the fading light, I could…

Winter boots, hats, sandals, tans, and the fact there is no school are the things to revel on during my winter vacation. Today winter wonderland, tomorrow sunny paradise. I can’t wait to share the conversations I have reserved for them, although transmitting the message to them is not the easiest thing do, due my poor Spanish. Speaking broken Spanish to my parents is perfectly fine, but speaking it to my Puerto Rican relatives is a whole different story. Their vocabulary and pronunciation is so…

¬Our community arts project is aimed at families, an original community play to help restore Fremantle’s cultural and historical significance. Fremantle has been divided by this issue in recent years and we want to push the focus back to growth and development, focusing on families, relationships and belonging. We think this will remind the people of Fremantle the importance of community projects in bringing people together, as engagement is important for the well-being of local communities. Art…

When society looks at crime offenders, most people assume that the offenders are breaking the law because they come from a broken home, are of non-white ethnic background, live in poverty and belong to a gang. While some of these are true, others are not. Why do people commit crimes in the first place, what makes them think that is ok behavior or is this even preventable behavior that society can stop? These are great questions, which makes this essay take a closer look at how the influence of…

scars from a house fire that left her more unattractive compared to her sister who escaped the house fire unscathed. She speaks in quiet tones and stays to herself unless needed by someone else.

Maggie revealed a sense of selfishness when she became aggravated when Dee decided she wanted the quilts. She politely walks up to her sister and offers her the quilts because she can remember her…

confess that I am now inclined to think that there is a finer way of studying ornithology than this" (Hemmingway 137). Nature can change a person which is what happened to Walden. As birds can represent Indians, the constant hunting of birds was the rubbing of nationalism and superiority on the Indian people. Walden now stopped carrying a gun symbolizing that he has removed his thoughts that were manipulated by society and now visualizes his view of the world and people. The action of him,…
