Nickel and Dimed effectively argues that low-wage jobs severely restrict the workers’ mobilities and that American society does not properly support the poor. Instead, it forces citizens to live isolating lives that discourage them from seeking a better standard of living. After reflecting on her experiences, Ehrenreich learns that because she works “unskilled” labor, her place in society…

harder for the exams. Most of the time, I would walk into the classroom without the knowledge of there even being an exam that day. Along with that, I wouldn’t even know what text the exam covered. I wish I would have prepared myself for the exam better, so that I would have gotten passing grades and wouldn’t have had to write a no fail essay for each one. The lastly, I wish I would have taken more advantage of plus points. By simply doing little assignments, I could have gained a few extra…

I don’t consider to be the best writer in the world, neither to be the worst writer in the world. I have come about many strategies, learning process, and more techniques to become what is called a “better writer”. As a writer I can say that I love my paper to stand out and to make the reader say, “Wow!” because what’s the point of writing a paper or story that is boring and makes the reader fall asleep. As a writer in this course I believed that I have improved tremendously and I have dedicated…

well as my balance on rélevé somewhat, but penchés and promenades were still difficult. Regarding my rélevés, throughout the year I was certainly able to raise my heel higher off the ground, as well as being better able to balance there. A combination of these also made my pirouettes better, and that was the other most general improvement that I was able to…

not in the curriculum we are responsible for teaching, but in school” (April Chamberlain). Humans are slowly becoming more and more advanced by the day and so is technology. They first used typewriters to computers. Technology helps students learn better, improve their test scores, and help disabled students. However, some researchers argue that technology will not stimulate more learning than pencil and paper, but this is not the case. Technology and people are becoming more advanced;…

What is more important, how hard you train or how well designed your specific exercise routine fits to your sport? It’s simple, it’s the specificity of your exercise routine. If you train like the majority, then you will play and execute like the majority. If you exercise with a routine specifically designed with complex and thorough exercises using the latest equipment, then your training will improve and positive results will show on and off the playing field. The game of volleyball requires…

Many people want to turn a new leaf whenever the new year starts. They will have new dreams, want to accomplish better goals in life, and will have new enthusiasm. Some goals could be losing weight, learning a new language, writing a new book, or streamlining their financial help. It just happens to be that people find it hard to lose their old habits. There are many factors that influence why many people fail to continue their new year resolutions. Some fear that they will not be able to…

and edit it and help me out, and then I at down and tried my hardest to fix it. The final sentence I am quite proud of, even if it wasn’t as perfect as I thought it was. I wrote, “ Bringing new religion into a culture can help guide a society into better ways of life, showing the people kinder and more open traditions, but it can also pull families apart and break down a previously established culture.” (Intro paragraph). I changed the wording to be far more…

designs that still work. I would rather think of new designs than improve old ones. In my opinion, it is more fun to solve newer problems than improve the solutions to older problems. I also feel as though a lot of time and effort goes into finding better materials and I do not like that because I am not a patient man and would much rather work on something more influential to society. Lastly, I feel it would be boring to test all the different designs and…

Thinking: My process of think this term have been pretty average for its abilities. Coming up with my own original ideas are of my strongest components to my thinking. The reason I think my process of think this term have been pretty average is do to the amount of work and skiing caused my brain to be thinking about to so many things I could not complete my thoughts. Although I didn’t find myself not able to complete my ideas often, I do hope to improve this. My ideas for improving these…
