Year Five

the outcome differs, but film directors tend to favor the more romantic ending. Not Richard LaGravenese, though. His adaptation of The Last Five Years (2014) challenges the mold of a Hollywood happy ending between opposite characters. The audience is shown the progression of actress Cathy (Anna Kendrick) and writer Jamie (Jeremy Jordan)’s tumultuous five-year relationship. The twist is that while Jamie’s scenes are shown chronologically, Cathy’s start from the end of the relationship and move…

analyze why you fell behind in the first place. I have learned over the years I take on too much, for example last semester I took 5 courses. I was going strong until the last 3 weeks, at that time between finals and papers due a wrench was thrown into my schedule causing my days be consumed with something in which I did not plan on. When analyzing what had happened, I…

5 Years Later on the Dreaded Island It has been five years since I have killed the man who killed others as a ‘sport’. I got a type of pleasure seeing that man die in pain. I went to sleep in that giant bed with a feeling of satisfaction towards myself. That following morning, as I was eating a wonderful breakfast of eggs and porridge, I heard a low, muffled sound of some sort. As curious as I am, I walked down the steps and the noise became louder, and louder. The voice rang, “Help us! Help!”…

The five and seven-year-old participants had an equal understanding of moral quality. This suggest that age is a significant factor in understanding moral quality and motivation differentiation.

To adequately answer the questions I’m going to go through my life in increments of five years with how I acted and thought, and I will go into detail of the important people in every five years and how they changed me. From ages zero to five I was the rowdiest and happiest little kid you would ever meet. I loved everyone and I wanted to make everyone smile. My mom says that I was always saying, “watch me daddy watch me” to my dad over every little thing I thought he might be interested in.…

extending high school to five years, due to increasing demands on students from employers and colleges to participate in extracurricular activities, community service, and maintain high grades. Personally, I do not believe that high school should be extended to five years. My reasoning for my position is it would increase drop out rate, the students would not enjoy being in high school for an extra year and want to start living as an adult, and I do all of this in the four year period. The…

Managing my time has been the biggest obstacle I have faced all semester. Learning how to manage school from work and also giving myself time to study became very overwhelming. I did some research on calendar systems to see what system worked best for me. The three main calendar systems I came across during my searching were; making a list of task I need to accomplish, using a schedule book to stay organized, or to use an alarm on a device for events. The best calendar system that worked best…

Occasionally we don 't even realize how unhappy we are until someone or something comes along and reminds us of what we deserve in life. Even the strongest, most confident, and courageous of people may still find certain decisions so difficult it is almost impossible to make up their mind. A major, life changing decision…
