Ten Years Empty Time
517 words
Once upon a time there used to be a me. Now there
are empty remains where there once was a
celebrator of life. Feelings I felt are no longer
there. The person I was, is gone. Ive been hiding
in an empty grave for such a long time there is no
more me. Where there was laughter; there are now
tears. I was brave, now I am fearful. Where there
was passion, now I am colorless. Where there was
compassion, I find contempt. As I reach down
within me to find these emotions I am shocked. I
have been living...

Cognitive Dissonance Ive Learned
1,005 words
On my journey to a better understanding of how
learning theories have shown themselves in my
life, I realized that I have had more experience
with them than I had first thought. I dont see
myself as being changed dramatically by any one
learning experience, but I do realize that my
desire to learn has increased as I have been
introduced to a variety of teaching methods. In
short, I could not pick one theory that I could
relate most of my learning experiences to.
Therefore, as I looked through ou...

Soviet Union Ive Read

The issues of abortion always perplexed me in many
ways. There were many questions to be answered and
to be discovered based on the arguments why people
consider it as an option. In issues regarding
abortion there are many opinions that I had to
observe based on the fact that many individuals
had different views and perspectives. Above all
the confrontation I encountered regarding
abortion, there was only one question that always
left me bewildered. I always wondered why women
actually go throug...

Heavy Metal T Shirt

Oh, so youre one of those people, she inquires, in
a tone consisting of disdain and surprise, after
telling her Im going to the Mudvayne and
Ultraspank concert. She continues, so you get all
dressed in leather and put in your nose ring to
get ready, huh? I laugh, looking over my rather
plain appearance of a Black Label Society t-shirt
and jeans, wondering how many laughs I would get
wearing leather and give a clearly sarcastic yeah
answer. She looks clearly offended by my nature

One People Country
607 words
I have been in this country for almost three
months now. One of the biggest challenges is
getting along peacefully with the native
population. To Americans one of the most important
things is to make sure that no one gets insulted
or hurt and that everyone is heard. Some would go
to the extent of not revealing their true opinion,
in order to avoid confrontation. In some group
discussion decisions, if reached at all, are made
after making long, tedious conversation about the
topic at hand. While ...

Plan Of Action Number One
995 words
Contrary to popular belief, honors students cheat
just as much or more than students in regular
classes do. Honors students are assumed to be
hardworking, responsible, and honest. Yet these
above average students are frequently taking part
in the same dishonest conduct of the ordinary
students, performing the task better and getting
away with it more than the regular students.
Explaining why honors students are better at
cheating is difficult because every cheating
student follows the same unwri...

Pick Up Truck O K

Finally! Almost there. Ive been in this pick-up
truck driving to work for the past 20 minutes, yet
it seems like hours and hours have passed. Its
really hot outside and this old truck doesnt even
have air conditioning. Anyways, the reason why Im
riding in this broke down pick-up truck is because
my dad is giving me a ride to work, his liquor
store. Now I already know what everyone is
probably thinking, 18 year-old guy without a car,
still having daddy take you everywhere. Well, not

Role Playing Real Life
1,482 words
Before the internet, there was only the computer,
large ones that take up a whole room. The computer
then was seen only as a tool, and then a few years
later there was the personal computer which made
it more accessible and more interactive. The PC
was a kind of evolutionary step which enabled us
to have wider relationships. But these
relationships did not appear yet until PCs started
to become interconnected. This is where internet
comes in. At first it was only a military tool,

Poem Daddy Ive Killed

After doing some research on the poet Sylvia Plath
it soon became apparent that this poem Daddy is
somewhat of a confessional life story. Throughout

elements to reveal the theme of her negative
attitude towards men in her life especially that
of her father. In lines 2 - 3 Any more black shoe,
In which I have lived like a foot. Plath uses the

Loss Of Life Jesus Christ
434 words
Ive thought, and thought about resistance in the
Holocaust and Ive come to this realization: No
words or poem or detailed description can describe
the level of terror and oppression that took
place. I am simply going to try my best to
understand a fraction of the pain that many people
went through, and the lessons we can learn from
what happened. If the people that died in the
Holocaust had one thing to say, I think that they
would say, Life is a gift, and youre lucky to have
it, dont waste it, ...

Time When Ive Escape From Reality Free
741 words
How do I know Im free? Well, in the country today,
we dont have near as many freedoms as we would
like. Most of the freedoms that were originally
written in the Declaration of Independence have
been distorted from their original purpose. Take
freedom of speech, for one. These days you cant
just go around and say what you want, when you
want. Yes, a lot of our freedoms come with
responsibilities, but there is no excuse for
prosecuting a person for exercising their rights.
But there are times when...

History Of Time Quantum Physics

That clear then? Did you buy Stephen Hawkings
latest book, The Universe in a Nutshell, in the
hope it might explain away the mysteries of the
universe and provide material for impressing
people at parties? Do you still not know what a
p-brane is, though? Not quite grasped imaginary
time? Puzzling over the idea of a 13 -dimension
world? Basically, does this book really help us
understand any of these things? I asked experts

Paul Mccartney John Lennon

Lennon/McCartney John Lennon and Paul McCartney
are two of the greatest artists popular music has
ever embraced. Their collaboration on early
Beatles songs propelled the group to international
fame. As the Beatles matured, however, the
relationship between these two became more
competitive than cooperative. They developed
unique and surprisingly polar styles. In a 1980
Playboy interview John Lennon stated: You could
say that (Paul) provided a lightness, an optimism,
while I would always go for t...

Dominant Submissive Relationship End Of The Story

In " The Yellow Wallpaper" , by
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, the dominant /
submissive relationship between an oppressive

depression into insanity. Flawed human nature
seems to play a great role in her breakdown. Her

brother, who is also a physician. While this
attitude, and the actions taken because o...
