Days A Week Basketball Team
1,550 wordsAs I type away on my computer at my desk made out of some wooden composite in my tranquil room, I discern several things. I know what I know, I feel what I feel, I believe what I believe & I view what I view. When I situate myself in front of a reflection of Alaina Talbot, I observe carefully. What do I look for? Most of you would look for the typical flaws in your individual exterior. I, on the other hand, look at her and play over the last two years of my existence. As an incoming freshman, I ...

So needless to say, I was feeling pretty good headed into the school year. I ha...

Object Oriented Programming Languages
1,063 wordsLet me say at the start that, as I write this, my experience is not that diverse, nor am I highly skilled in all the languages I've come into contact with yet. In the order I learned them, I know QBASIC, C, Dr Scheme, and Java. And, uh, Tierra.

Alcohol And Drugs Freshman Year
554 wordsHow Correlational Paper Correlational Paper How do ones social surroundings effect their views on alcohol and drugs? Through a correlational study I hope to find out in what ways students are effected by their surroundings, and if it is truly this that makes them do things or if it is their own will.

Ninth Grade Authority Figures
937 wordsSmall-minded administrators and authority figures like to speak in clich? s. All my life I heard the same trite line: You can tell a lot about a person by the friends they keep. The black sheep of the honors program, I hung out with the so-called losers. During my freshman year, not a day went by when a teacher or family member did not deride my closest friends and warn me that by hanging out with bad seeds I would fall into a downward spiral, never graduate college, and have a miserable life. T...

Roger Williams Educational Opportunities
525 wordsI can fly a kite, make a great roast beef sandwich, read an entire Patricia Cornwell paperback book in less than a day and change a diaper without flinching. These characteristics combined are what separate me from the hundreds of other students that apply to Lynchburg College, that and the fact that I am applying with only one week left before classes start.
