I first got introduced to computers when I was quite young, I followed my dad to work and within a few minutes I had successfully crashed the PC, typical windows. Within a year we got a pc at home and within a day I crashed that one as well. I don’t know exactly what I did to it, but someone the operating system was couldn’t restore itself to a working state automatically and we had to call someone over to fix. So as you can probably guess I was banned from even touching the computer till…
When looking at the sociology of sports, I found that sociological theories of Karl Marks and of Feminism present the most useful perspective. Statistics show that there is gender inequality among many sporting disciplines in the United States, affecting not only women but also men. Also, there is a vast exploitation in the sporting industry, making a profit of sportsmen and consumers. Moreover, gender inequality and exploitation overlap in numerous sporting disciplines. In this piece, I will…
would be when one of my brother’s good friends dropped out of college to take care of his mother, and unfortunately never ended up coming back. If these events continue to occur, many college students will not finish. In many cases the higher the education, the better chance one has at scoring a higher paying job. To avoid these problems, it’s pretty simple; just find out the way to obtain a correct balance between social life, and your school…
During the course of this class I have learned a lot about the college life and how different it is to high-school. In college everything is more fast-paced and the teacher require the student to be more responsible. When I complete two years at Mayland I plan to transfer to King University in Bristol, Tennessee to get my masters in business administration. I like this college because it reminds me a lot of Mountain Heritage in that the class sizes are not too large, and the overall campus size…
I’ve always been very indecisive when it comes to making any kind of decision. It could be the simplest choice of what to eat, and I will still contemplate it for the longest time. So when people ask me what I want to do for the rest of my life, it kind of throws me for a loop.Some days I want to be a stay at home mom who just takes care of the house and kids, and other days I want to be a successful surgeon who is constantly on the move and constantly helping others. For now, I think that I…
In my writing career I have had many good essays and also just as many bad essays. I wasn’t a very good writer until my freshman year of high school. It was a very big changing point in my life that I will never forget. My middle school wasn’t too hard about essay grading but when I went to high school at Memphis University School (MUS), it was a wake up call for sure. Writing isn’t something that came naturally for me, I had to work my ass off to get where I am today and I still am not near…
My Expectations or Intentions for College "A college degree is the key to realizing the American dream, well worth the financial sacrifice because it is suppose to open the door to a world of opportunity" Dan Rather.

Everyone life story is like a book, each day brings a new page and one can go back and read past chapters or create new ones and for me more than a week ago a whole new chapter unfolded for me when I started to attended college at Shippensburg University. My family and closest friends to this day support me on everything life hits me with and because of that I have always put them first. On my free time depending on the day and setting half the time I would go outside and hang out with my…
My decision to become a doctor was not based on a single life experience; however, it has been the result of my entire life 's trajectory. From my childhood, I remembered my mother waking up early every morning to go to the bus station and try to get a ride to the hospital where she was doing her medical residency as an Endocrinologist. No matter how sick she felt, every day she got up a leave. It took her many years of sacrificing her family time as well as her night sleeps, but she committed…
