bright, young mind in his earlier years, but seems to have a gradually increasing obsession with his idea of perfectionism as the years go by. Over many years, Crake realizes that there are many qualities about the human race that he finds to be negative. Crake feels the need to do something about this, which is why he decides to work on a project that he feels would benefit humanity, but actually causes destruction. While Crake has shown examples…

Every year, thousands of students throughout the world spent their last year of high school applying for college to decide what will be the right choice in furthering their education. While a wide variety of students decide to proceed straight into college others would prefer to have a gap year. A gap year is when students take a year off away from the school. Students, who graduate from high school, should take a year off before starting a new chapter in life, therefore the gap year can allow…

As technology becomes an increasingly larger part of our world in the year of 2015, it is clear that certain things that may have not been relevant twenty years ago are becoming an increasingly large concern. Back in the day, things such as social media and the ways in which technology can be used today would have not been relevant research topics, as the information surrounding it would have been next to none, and in some cases, would have not existed at all. For this research paper, it will…

I have had quite a journey with writing, and all of the experiences that I have had have led me to believe that I am an okay writer. The first memory that I have of writing something is from the first grade. Our teacher would have us write short stories about whatever we wanted to, and then she would bind them into little books. I mostly wrote about my stuffed animals going on adventures. I am so glad that our teacher did this- it made writing seem like an exciting activity that was accessible…

the past thirteen years, many different areas of my life have changed, and with that, my levels of responsibility and what I take responsibility of. In education, friends, family and even in musicals, I’ve taken responsibility for myself and others, which has helped develop the picture of who I am as a person…

As a new grade nine at Brentwood, bright eyed and bushy tailed, I viewed my seniors in the highest of regard, for they could do no wrong. For all that I knew, they didn’t party, do drugs or get into any means of trouble. I remember the shock of finding out that my snowball date, an exceptional rugby player, polite young man, and not to mention a handsome one at that, was an avid cocaine user. How could someone like that, who went to a school such as Brentwood, do that? It was then that my veil…

how to write research papers. Computer hardware engineers need writing and reading skills in order to be able to write function and read them. They also need math skill to calculate functions. 9- 12th grade helped me out. Taking a math class every year. Learning how to divide, multiple, and figure out measuring calculations. My sponsors have been all of my teachers. Each one had a mission to take me from only knowing how to write my name to writing summary’s from different…

I have been conforming towards other people since the day I understood the concepts of how to be your own person; in other words, having your own style. I have two older siblings; a brother and a sister, and my sister is only a year older than I am. This tempted me to want to be just like her, which she did not enjoy as much as I did. I would try to be friends with her friends and of course at younger ages, we did not get along, so she would tend to push me out of her life. This…

I guess I forgot to take into consideration how crazy competitive I was when I wrote that. When I reached ninth grade, I struggled badly academically. My First semester I ended up with a low GPA, for what I was used to having. Fortunately, the next year I figured I out, for the next four semesters I had straight A’s. In ninth grade I was persuaded into going out for football. I was down to 200 pounds as my pill was helping me maintain my disease. I enjoyed football, and was fairly successful,…

invalidates the claim that reducing the sizes of classrooms will effect test scores or performance. Studies have consistently proven over the years that smaller class sizes improve test scores and have exam scores. Students in smaller classes often have performed better and proven the effectiveness of small group instruction especially among the first years of school. Researchers found significant achievement gains for students in small kindergarten classes relative to students in larger…
