I have begun to work with my shooting club to understand the working of a sporting clay and trap club, how competitions…

In terms of physical appearances, Speck reported to have found “representatives…of…

At the moment, there was hardly any movement in the air, but bright-red low clouds in the darkening sky foretold the upcoming day’s wind and calamity as clearly, as if they were announcing the weather out loud.

Being raised in a perfectionist’s home, my older siblings got straight As, and it was an expectation that I was prepared to achieve. Nothing lower was acceptable to either me or my parents. Anything lower than an A meant that I had made a mistake. It meant I had failed. That’s the way I felt about grades.

Romanticism and Realism are perfectly opposite each…

When I was little, I wanted to be a chemist. I imagined myself in the lab coat and with goggles on, carefully pouring electric blue liquids and jade green foam back and forth into various containers, until something had exploded and I had discovered the best way to make flowers the size of people. As I grew up, I lost this fantasy, but I gained more knowledge on how I wanted to influence the world. Funnily enough, I discovered what I really wanted to do when I started working at Chick-fil-A…

NBA Playoff System Flawed The playoff system in which I believe is flawed is the National Basketball Association’s playoff structure. The NBA’s current playoff system is an elimination tournament between 16 of the NBA’s best teams that then lead to a final match to win the Larry O’Brien trophy. “The way these 16 teams qualify for the playoffs is by playing 82 regular season games between the end of October and Mid-April.”1 At the end of the regular season, the top eight teams in the Eastern and…
