As a child, I was outside almost all the time. I would either be on my family farm working or in the backwoods that are on our farm. I love the outdoors because they are so perfect because they are so beautiful and great. As a farm boy, the outdoors are what I have been around my whole life and all I have known. Therefore, I honestly wouldn’t know what to do without them. I remember a couple of years ago, my family went on a excursion to Disney World, and I wasn’t myself, I felt like I was missing a part of myself. This was when I realized that the outdoors are what I’m passionate about and what I love. With me being around them so much, they have almost become a part of me and something I will have to always be around. When I am not on the farm or in the outdoors I get bored and I almost get emotionally and mentally sick. What I mean by this, is that when I’m gone from the outdoors I feel homesick and I feel like I'm missing part of me. When this happens, I get into rare form and sometimes get tired. Sometimes I feel like I’m being trapped in a “concrete prison” and it feels like there is no room for me to go or for my soul to roam. I mostly feel this way at school. My main goal in school right now is to get out and then go work on the farm. I see school as a wall that I need to tear down so I can continue down the road…
I think that my dorm room is a representation of my front-stage behavior. This is the case because although it is my room, I share it with a friend, and although it is our room, we often have other people in it with us. Dorm rooms are a space in which friends can gather for a party, to study together, or even to watch this week’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy. It is more of a public space than a private space in which I can be alone. I keep my dorm room in a manner in which I would publically…
My World Peace Many people advocate peace, but is peace what we truly need? In terms of this paper, peace an be defined as "A state in which there is no war or fighting."( ) I hold with strong conviction that while peace may be a possible, absolute peace can yield disastrous results. Through active reform, and joint collaboration, war in itself can be significantly reduced worldwide. In order to understand the complexities of peace, one must first identify the causes of war. Many speculate…
World War 2 had a giant impact on my life. My family has been working hard for years, but nothing ever happened. We learned at school then came home and did our chores.

of himself singing and somehow got the attention of the very famous singer Usher. At a very early age Justin found his love for music. " 'My mom bought me my first drum set when I was four, I picked up the guitar when I was six and taught myself to play, and I didn't start singing until I was ten.' (Abbey, 32)". Learning to play instruments at such a young age helped him realize how much he loved music. One of the reasons Justin Bieber is my role model is because he has taught me that anything…
World War I probably affected my great great great grandparents. It began in 1914 when a Serbian nationalist murdered Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife. Austria-Hungary, then declared war on Serbia. Europe was divided in two, the Triple Alliance, made up of Austria-Hungary, Germany and Italy, versus the Triple Entente, made up of Russia, France, and Great Britain. As more and more countries got involved, the Triple Alliance became known as the Central Alliance, and the Triple…
Did I ever tell you about the time I went to Disney World? This story is about my family and me on our trip to Disney World in March of 2013. I was 14 years old at the time of the trip. The first day, we went to the Magic Kingdom. We immediately headed for the Tomorrowland section of the park so we could ride “Space Mountain.” After that, we headed towards Adventureland so we could ride “Pirates of the Caribbean;” Richie and Ryan were in the back of the boat and it would occasionally drag on…
During the war I “Rene” had been a soldier fighting to stop the Nazi’s from killing all the Jewish people that lived in Poland. While I was preparing to leave to Poland I first got to know who I was fighting along with. As well as playing cards or refreshing my defensive techniques in close combat. I also made sure I ate as much food that can be found good here then what I might have to survive on in Poland. When I arrived in Poland I meet a war veteran who goes by the name Ben Kamm. He…
In the summer of 1940, it all began. The first affect began with the news. The radio echoed throughout our home hearing updates of the war. My father began increasingly worried with the progress of the German army and when the draft began his worry doubled. Even though he was over the typical limit for military service we all knew when it came to war there was no rules. My mother always seemed on the verge of snapping with the increased stress. Her age seemed to increase with the day as the…
