It’s a great program. Unfortunately, both times he left the program before his year was up. I couldn’t understand why someone would want to choose being homeless over having a full belly, a safe warm place to live and no financial responsibility. To myself that seemed ludicrous, who in their right mind would do such a thing? That’s when it hit me! He’s not in
Think back to when I told you there were things that can go wrong no matter what during lambing season. This was one of those times. It was about two years ago, there was an ewe that was struggling with birth, so we took her into the shed. When we went to get the lambs out my mom pulled her hand out after having no luck and everything followed. The ewe had a uterine prolapse
Society often believes college is a necessary experience for a better future, but I argue that the future will not be any better when student debt becomes a part of life for those who follow that mainstream belief. Most parents often dream of the great colleges and universities that their children will get accepted into; however, they fail to think of the cost to attend those institutions. Financial aids! Financial aids! Yes there are financial aids that students can apply to lessen the student debt

Pt. met with Primary Counselor after dosing for her monthly individual session. Counselor started the session respectfully greeting her and praising her for her excellent recovery progress as indicated by her clean UDS. She agreed to sign her Record of Service sheet. For the first 20 minutes Pt. and counselor went over his previous treatment plan and any recovery concern. Counselor and Pt. discussed her recovery progress; possible side effects of her prescribed methadone medication and current emotional
Every 2 in 3 writers are self employed and can make money for themselves. This job is expected to grow by 8% in 2026 (“Writer” Career 2). When I graduate, I want to be able to write my own stories and be able to publish them- even if it isn’t for a full time job. I am not sure what I want to be when I grow up yet, but I know that I want it to be something that involves English. A person can do many things with an English Major. They can be a journalist, creative writer, script writer, and so much more

Calixta’s relationship with Alcee is a sense of freedom, even though during this era she’s supposed to be the happy housewife, she puts that aside to what really makes her happy. After the storm passes and its time to say their goodbyes, her true happiness shines though as the sun comes out. “He turned and smiled at her with a beaming face; and she lifted her pretty chin in the air and laughed aloud” (Chopin 560). This is what gets Calixta past the storm with
“42% of college students in the United States fail to complete their degrees. Of those 42%, 15-25% will drop-out, and the remaining 17-27% will leave college, for reasons that are less clear.” There is obviously something wrong with our education system as a whole for so many students to drop out of college. Yet, individuals believe that college tuition should be free, and paid for by the government with taxpayer money. Secondary school should not be free because it should not replace the education
When these roles and responsibilities are set, each person gets to know what is expected of them, when and how. Everything gets done on time with less time and energy wasted because with each person doing something it becomes easier for both to finish whatever duty is in front, and in supervision there is always something that needs to be
forever and to deal with problems and work past them since. However, six years ago I realized even with that belief, periodically you must find the courage deep within you to do some “do something”. I believe the courage to do what is necessary in times of adversity, however intimidating or challenging, is deep within you and you must step out and find that courage. Married to a man who turned out to a controlling narcissist for 25 years, proved to be harrowing. I jumped when he came home, our
as if they are incompetent when they are successful in their line of work. They aren’t able to show emotion in the workplace because they will be seen as weak and emotional. Our emotions often get based on us being “on our period” or it being “that time of the month.” Some men think it’s funny to shame a woman based on something she isn’t able to control. Men will shame a woman’s clothing and when she is harassed, its blamed on the way she dressed. Women have to deal with sexual harassment and gender
money to be over or at the poverty line level and are actually a lot more below it instead? There have been many issues on the topic of increasing the minimum wage from ten to fifteen dollars because it can cause inexperienced workers having a tough time getting or looking for jobs, families not being able to live on the minimum wage the way it stands now, and businesses not being able to create more jobs to hire more workers. For instance, an author named David Neumark believes that the effects of
WEEK 1: CULTURAL IDENTITY I always thought that the definition of culture was the way a group of people behave socially, which was influenced by their cultural background like race, religion, rituals and origin. Activity 1 challenged the way I thought about my own culture. I used to think my culture was typical Australian, but when asked to describe my own customs, I realised that I do not eat seafood or pork, like many Australians, and that this is because of a religious belief that my parents
Difficult people are always satisfying themselves by pushing other people and forcing them into insanity. Whether they know about their negativity or not, they are capable of creating stress and turning each environment into one, which is full of complexity. Science has shown that stress negatively impacts your mind. In fact, facing stress even for a few days, can affect the activity of the neurons, present in your hippocampus, which is the part of the brain responsible for the memory and the ability
My learning style is a visual learning style in which a learner utilizes visual materials such as graphs, charts, or maps to understand something. People with a visual learning style such as me have some characteristics that make their learning method unique. They typically use color to organize information or use diagrams or charts to understand ideas and concepts. Personally, I like acquiring structured knowledge from books or documents and traveling and I think that I am good at analyzing and
Allende was the daughter of a diplomat, which limited her time in Chile. She referred to Chile as an invented country since she wasn’t as exposed to her homeland until later, as she said, “Word by word I have created the person I am and the invented country in which I live.” (Allende 26). Although she expresses

In his essay “Feminist Theory and the Environmental Movement,” Robert Verchick argues that the environmental justice movement is, if unintentionally, a feminist movement. This is exemplified by the Veronica in Chantal Bilodeau’s Sila. Veronica is a woman of color who participates in the environmental justice movement using art as her primary form of activism. While her activism may not have explicitly feminist aims; however, her actions can be understood as forms of feminist action as defined by
In sociology, the theories we are provided with allows us to view the world we live in today from different perspectives. A theory is defined as a group of general propositions that are tested and usually used as a tool for either an explanation or a prediction. The main three theories found in sociology makes it easier for us to understand and it also provides us with understndable reasoning on the behavior occuring in our sociey and why they happen.

way society views a mother is a lot more. A mother is not just simply as a woman who gave birth to a child, but a woman who can raise, comfort, and care for their child. A mother’s job can change depending on what social standing they are in and what time they live in. My mother is by far the strongest person I know. She has gone through more struggles than any person should have to. People always asked me “Why is your mother a hero?” I always said “she has gotten my back since day one.” She has taught
