As the semester winds down, everybody starts to look at what they have learned or completed over the semester. In the English class, we are being asked to do that by our professor. We have been introduced to many different ideas sporadically throughout the semester, and some of them will probably leave with us as [...]

Leaving

I had to take an extra day of Thanksgiving break this year. There just isn’t enough time in one visit to make all of the doctor appointments that I need to make. I know that as a teenager, I should not complain when I am ordered to take prescription pain medication on a regular basis, [...]
Writing on the Breaks :(

It is harder to remember to blog everyday than someone would think. Over breaks it seems like we should actually be allowed to rest a little bit since the average college student is extremely involved on campus. There are Resident Assistants who have to be on duty even though there are hardly any residents in [...]

Christians are supposed to accept every challenge that comes our way. There is a saying that if He brings you to it, He will bring you through it. We are supposed to rejoice in our suffering. Romans 5:3-4 says “We glory in our sufferings because we know that suffering produces perseverance, perseverance character, and character [...]

It is becoming more and more difficult for me to find things to write about, but at the same time I am understanding more why people like blogs. It is a way for their opinions and thoughts to be heard without forcing them on others. I really don’t think anyone will read my blog, which [...]

It’s amazing how when you are sick, or something is going on so you cannot be involved in life like you always have been, and you think that life is going to wait to keep going. It never does, but you always think it will. I forgot to do my daily blog for the past [...]

In one of my earlier blogs I told about why I got my dragonfly tattoo, but this past weekend I decided to be crazy and get another one. I had been thinking about what I wanted for a long time, and just randomly decided that I didn’t want to wait any more.
I just got “Saorsa” [...]

It is a bummer that you cannot catch up with sleep. They say that the only thing you can do is get enough sleep for that night, like the eight hours for the night you are on. So I slept all day, and am going back to sleep the moment I’m done writing this so [...]

Last January I got a tattoo of a dragonfly on my ankle. This is the story behind that:
When I was in elementary school, my next door neighbor was from Taiwan and he use to catch dragonflies for us kids and tie their tail to a string so that we could play with them. We would [...]

The Corporation uses many different types of arguments in order to get their point across. In this clip, the producers used a narrative argument to try and tell people about how the U.S. military has influenced other countries for its own gain. The narrator tells a story about a specific general [...]
