Many events throughout an individual 's life will help to shape the kind of person they become. These events can be both depressing and inspirational. Examples of life altering events may include the loss of a loved one, the birth of a child, near-death experiences, or even participating in large scale events that comply with either their life goals or career paths. One event that has helped to shape my own life was attending the NHSFR, or National High School Finals Rodeo. I qualified as the…

A Shakespearean text that I have studied is “Julius Caesar” and for the purpose of this essay I will be focusing on this particular piece of literature. It was in the year of 1599 that this play was first performed. Julius Caesar takes place in ancient Rome in 44 BCE, when Rome was the centre of an empire stretching from Britain to North Africa and from Persia to Spain. Yet even as the empire grew stronger, so, too, did the force of the dangers threatening its existence. Before looking at the…

Private Dancer As I was added to the schedule early in the week, I was not quite prepared for how different things were on Friday night. First of all, there were so many more dancers on the floor.

After she wears a white top with long pants, looking out her tops, ‘look at her BUTT’ is written on and the word ‘BUNZ’ is also on other women’s pants. It obviously treats women’s bodies as…

The samurai and the knight had his origins in military and economic need. His role was as a warrior, and like the samurai in some cases he was little more than a thug rewarded for his viciousness. But if a knight was to succeed, he had to take his role in the military seriously. Furthermore, like the samurai of Japan as time went on, success required more than brawn: it required loyalty to his liege-lord in society as well as strategy and ingenuity on the battlefield. Born of Noble blood and…

From Saraburi to Cary Despite how interconnected the world feels due to the startling rate of technological and social advancements, the understanding of how other countries operate on a normal day to day basis tends to be lacking. However, having a simple conversation can be all that is needed to help elucidate this. Chomnapat "Fon" Imtanacanich, a young woman from Thailand, was full of laughs; even her more serious moments felt relaxed. Within two short hours, Fon's experiences were able to…

Existence of God The argument about Gods existence is one of the most exploited subjects among different scholars and philosophers in the world. It is a question that most people have been defeated to tackle in the sense that, no significant evidence has been set to dispute or acknowledge the fact that God exists. In this context, it is still an ongoing process, and therefore different people have set different explanations. To most individuals and religious groups in the world, the existence…

When you think of a female superhero what do you see? Do you see nice ass and big boobs, or someone fighting for a purpose? When it comes to female superheroes they have been over sexualized since their first creation. No one can truly understand the full complexity of a female superhero when all the viewers can look at is the front and the back. Creator of DC Comics, William Marston, says “Wonder Women, who was created in 1941, was a feminine character with all the strength of Super Man plus…
