Education has always been my top priority, but what I don 't comprehend is - why is it? Most people view attending school and studying is mandatory, but I disagree. I usually spend all of my spare time, and even if it 's for one assignment, indulge myself for possibly six-eight hours a day and study in my room. I had a choice from the very beginning - to do the work or to fail, but that question already seems rhetorical as it is. I choose to work hard, not because I had to, but because I believe…

Let me start off by defining what an aphorism is, an aphorism is a true statement intended to share a universal truth (Google.com). In Tuesdays With Morrie, Morrie was a professor who was diagnosed with ALS. This is a terminal disease that attacks a person 's nervous system, slowly making parts of the victim 's body inoperable. While he is dying, an old student of his, Mitch, visits Morrie every Tuesday. Morrie shares a lot of aphorisms with him that taught Mitch Albom, and myself, how to live a…

The first key point, change happens says to me that you have to know things are changing all around us. A quote from the book was, “The more important the cheese is to you, the more you want to hold onto it.” People change from what they are used to and are comfortable with. The most successful people in the world are the ones who are the ones that make change happen. I really like the story of Steve Jobs who was never complacent with how is company was doing. He always wanted to design new…

Chapter five ***Cassidy 's P.O.V*** ~♡~ I turned around after someone poked my shoulder, expecting to see Carson, but was surprised by Dave. "Hey, what are you doing here? This is kind of my locker." He laughed. "Yeah, I know. That 's why I came here." I frowned. "Look, if you 're here because you want to have sex with me, then you can leave." He rolled his eyes. "When did I ever say that?" I laughed at him. "Everyone knows that you 're a player. You 've slept with the whole cheer squad." "Come…

Chapter twelve ***Carson 's P.O.V*** I was sitting on a bench eating my sandwich because none of my friends had come out of lunch yet. I saw Oliver come and sit next to me. He looked at me, an unreadable expression on his face. "Hey, can I ask you something?" I smiled. "Of course you can. " He frowned slightly. "Um, imagine, hypothetically, that there was a boy who was with his friends and they weren 't nice. Do you think that the boy could change?" I chuckled. "Are you talking about yourself?"…

Is he just going to wing it?” “I want you to believe me when I tell you that I’m sorry because every single word written down on this paper is the straight truth. I know what you saw and I understand what that must have looked like, but I can sit here and tell you that it was a misunderstanding. I wasn’t lying to you when I said that I was completely over…

Everything has beauty, and sometimes we shrug it off because we’re going too fast to really notice the intricate details. Sometimes, we need to slow down and appreciate things for what they really are. Life is much more interesting when we notice every single part of something.” After that, she goes back to her gardening. I didn’t listen to her…

The catastrophe of Cassie and the coat stealing boy caught my eye because Cassie was thoughtful and unselfish enough to help.( I like what you’re trying to do here, but it doesn’t work. State it more clearly.)This is when Cassie decides to help T.J. after all he had done; I believe that she was admirable for everything that she did but this was about friendship and kindness and those are really admirable things. Cassie had trouble in her life, being black, but she stayed strong and held on to…

Well growing up I did not have the greatest childhood so I always remember thinking and acting differently from the other kids in my grade. I always had this side of me that was more grown up than most of the grown ups I knew. I used to think to myself a lot I still do but when I was younger I did not have many friends so I wasn’t quite sure how to be alone. Once I became about 14 something inside of me realize I fine all alone this side of me has always second-guess any bad choices I would make…

Narrative Writing CA Runaway Groom It’s the morning of the big day. The biggest day of my life. Well at least it’s supposed to be. Right now it feels more like the worst. The wedding starts in a few hours. What do I do? I can’t go through with this. How do i commit the rest of my life to a woman who can’t be honest with me? A woman who feels lying to me is the only way. Without sounding too cliché, ‘what’s a relationship without trust?’ I’m done being afraid. She claims she loves me but, who…
