becoming one of the best rap producers, his parents divorced when he was 3. When Kanye West was 10, he went to China for a year for an education program. All in all, Kanye West rose above his impoverished youth to become a social elite. Kanye West’s life continues to develop as a Greek tragedy because he processed the fatal flaw of hubris. Kanye…

When i am 74 years old i will be a tattooed fun loving grandmother that has lived a fulfilled life. If i am any thing like i am now, i will very social and driven to still live my everyday life in the best quality possible.

I will be the old lady that is always on the move and ready to go. I will not be complacent because of my old age. i will…

White people did not want black people to be successful. Segregation in the south was fought for years. Starting with Rosa Parks when she did not want to get up out her seat for a white man. In these times they had whites and blacks only same for restaurants and waterfoutians. After the war things began to get way worse after slavery for African Americans. North was the best place for African Americans to live. There was less Segregation and less racial slurs. There were racial killing in the…

an important part of our world and it is what keeps our world in, somewhat, a stable manner. Although all Americans can vote, the United States requires that a person must be 18 years of age or older. There has been some discussion around our world about lowering the voting age to 13, which I agree that this is a terrible idea. Lowering the voting age to 13 would, in no way, be a good idea. How could we trust a bunch of junior high kids to make the right decisions for our country? Voting is…

this land is devoted to organic agriculture, and the interest and demand for this produce is continuing to grow stronger each year (McCarthy, 2015). McCarthy shows that in 2013 the sales…

The first noticeable concept that caught my eye in the essay was “nobody ever lived in the past”. I don’t ever think about this since we always know how the story ends, but we don’t know how our own stories end, and neither did those in the past. The best example I can think of for this situation is the assassination of President Kennedy. President Kennedy had no idea that he be would assassinated in 1963, because at that time it was the present. His vice president Lyndon B. Johnson could not…

I had our first child and this is when things changed for me as they do with many women. Priorities shifted, schedules changed and I often felt conflicted with my division of time between work and home. My job was beyond demanding. Often I was at work before the sun was up and came home after my husband put our daughter to bed so I would go days without seeing her. This took a toll on me and my marriage. Something had to change. After seven long years at this company, I finally…

directions being told by the teacher. It was a Friday, not just any Friday though, it was the Friday before spring break of 2017. I could tell it was going to be one of the best spring breaks yet. My family and our really close friends, the Krafts, were going to Anna Maria Island with us. We go there for spring break every year. It wasn’t just spring break that week, it was also the week of my birthday, April 4th. Near the end of the school day I was beyond happy, I couldn't wait to head to…

When it comes to our children we always want the best for them. That means the safest toys, the safest schools, the safest daycares. All these things come in the form or the safest physical things and places in the lives of our children, but what about the one thing many people don’t really take into account? What about our children and our vehicles. This has been a never ending fight. Safety experts, advocates and now federal and state governments are getting involved to help people better…

After that I will be telling the opposing side of the story. Then, i will explain why they are not the best reasons on what we could do. First it is not beneficial to the young adults that will be just going into the world. I do not believe that this would be the best thing because, kids are just getting out of school to go live on their own and go to college. If you make them serve for a year then they may never go to college. A lot of people do not like the idea of serving so…
