Being involved in the community will change ones life. It was my senior year in high school until I realized what happens when one gets involved in their community. Being involved in the Miracle League not only helped the kids, it helped me as a person. I still remember the first time I went to the Miracle League. It was a tradition of my baseball team to go to the Miracle League once a year. I was nervous, and did not know what to expect. It was a steaming hot Saturday morning the day we went. I could feel the joy in the air as I walked in the park. I walked up to the front desk and received my name tag. There I was told that volunteering at the Miracle League was a huge contribution to the community. I did not fully understand what she meant until later that game. We walked to the dugout and were greeted by crowds of kids wanting to be our "buddy." The joy on their face made me realize what hanging out and playing baseball with them really meant. I was choosing to be Jacks "buddy" I said, "Jack your up, hit a homerun!!" He looked back at me with a face that showed pure happiness. The crack of the bat sounded, and we ran. He would only run the bases if I held his hand, so we sprinted around and scored. As the game ended and we left, Jack was upset because he had so much fun, and now it was over. At this moment, I understood what being involved with this program did for the community. I felt a responsibility to become a…

Walking down a street in New York this summer there were a lot of bakeries that could be found. Going into those bakeries and seeing the people behind the counter put fire to an idea that has been bouncing around in my mind, “Having my own bakery.” Plenty of things go into starting and running a business. Ample time, effort, and money are going to be major components when it comes to trying to start it up. How should one go about opening a bakery and keep that bakery open and running? Before…

We have assessed Mazzetti’s current competitive strategy in the market. Some of their strengths include their well-established presence in the local community, their customizable services for specialty items, and their retention/consistency of their employees. Their brand is their greatest strength, but suffers to their lack of marketing. Without consistent marketing efforts, Mazzetti’s is unable to compete with others for the attraction of customers. Another weakness is their size and…

Scenario 1 According to the information that the cupcake company provided for the analysis, the price point at which the company should sales one dozen of cupcakes is $6.00. At $6.00 price per dozen the cupcake company quantity demanded would be 100 dozen cupcakes per day. This would amount to profits of $200 per day. When the company fixed cost of $100 is introduced into the analysis, the $6.00 price would still be the best price point per dozen with profits of $100.00. The price of elasticity…

Baker Entrepreneur vs Physical Therapist My Aunt Michelle was constantly looking for a way to help someone, especially when they were upset. When she passed, my mom was immensely distressed, and I made it my personal mission to do anything I could to support her in this troubling event. Since then, I have always had the desire to brighten someone’s day in any way possible, whether it’s helping someone recover after a brutal surgery or simply baking a cake for a birthday party. In order to…

rotation in the spring of this year. My clinical instructor, who happened to be a black woman, constantly came crying to me because she felt that the director and other nurses were rude to her and always finding faults with whatever she did. She felt that the problem was because she was a black person in a position where most whites thought they belong. I couldn’t help but to agree with her; I understood her pains. Never once did I think of her as being a weak person like someone of a…

The titular clean, well-lighted place is seen as a place of refuge for the old man and the older waiter, who face down the barrel of existential depression. Their fear of ‘nothing’, described by Baker as being “so huge, terrible, overbearing, inevitable, and omnipresent that, once experienced, it can be never forgotten”, can never be truly alleviated, only stymied (Baker). The clean, well-lighted place serves in this capacity for the characters, but is additionally a symbol for similar places…

scene between two female lover, but monkey watching in the back to represent the devil/sin which was how traditionalist society viewed those of the same sex being together during those times. These two figures can also be seen sitting in the tub of What the Water Gave Me. Kahlo’s sexuality was an integral a part of her life, and she even continued having relationships with females during her marriage to Diego Rivera, including one with Josephine Baker. The two had much in common: both Frida and…
