...#1. Stop spending time with the wrong people. – Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you. If someone wants you in their life, they’ll make room for you. You shouldn’t have to fight for a spot. Never, ever insist yourself to someone who continuously overlooks your worth. And remember, it’s not the people that stand by your side when you’re at your best, but the ones who stand beside you when you’re at your worst that are your true friends. pongboy #2. Stop running from your problems. – Face them head on. No, it won’t be easy. There is no person in the world capable of flawlessly handling every punch thrown at them. We aren’t supposed to be able to instantly solve problems. That’s not how we’re made. In fact, we’re made to get upset, sad, hurt, stumble and fall. Because that’s the whole purpose of living – to face problems, learn, adapt, and solve them over the course of time. This is what ultimately molds us into the person we become. #3. Stop lying to yourself. – You can lie to anyone else in the world, but you can’t lie to yourself. Our lives improve only when we take chances, and the first and most difficult chance we can take is to be honest with ourselves. aberrantbeauty.tumblr.com #4. Stop putting your own needs on the back burner. – The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too. Yes, help others; but help yourself too. If there was ever...

...intolerable pain which tears you apart, like a stone heavy on the heart, but I know now that I really wasn’t. Every morning, every meal times, every evening it hurt so badly I wanted to hurt her too. I so badly need her here, to feel her love, to touch out to her. I remember bedtimes which were for stories and adventures, the touch of her gentle hugs, the smell of her softly shampooed hair, and the sparkle of her soul. She’s now my ghost, an unfelt, unspoken memory of the past. Dad was still shouting to me from the bottom of the stairs as I drifted away from my childhood memories. He was holding a letter and had a face like thunder as he crossly waved the envelope towards my outstretched hand. ‘I think it’s your Mothers writing’. Boom Boom Boom!! Sounded the fastness of my heavy heart as I gingerly took the letter from my dad and uttered not a word as I backtracked without a backwards glance to my haven. A mixture of apprehension, fear and anger crashed over me like a tidal wave crashing against my skull, how dare she contact me yet again and put me through all this pain. Slowly, Slowly I open the letter and gingerly remove it from its personal surroundings. This wasn’t the first letter and certainly wasn’t to be the last letter from my mum who was once more asking for reconciliation, forgiveness on my part and offering explanations on hers. A feeling of emptiness laid heavy as I knew that however many letters, texts I received from my mum there was absolutely nothing I could...

...Christina Wright Interview Paragraphs Cynthia Frazier-Jackson is one of the coolest seniors I know. She is also one of the bluntest people I know. For example, one time when my hair was out of place, she straight up told me that I needed to fix it. She doesn’t beat around the bush and she isn’t fake, she gives it to you like it is. Cynthia is one of those people who always smiles no matter what is going on. Even when she’s mad or upset about something, she doesn’t reminisce on the past. I strive to be like her in many ways. She is like a role-model to me and a lot of other students. That is why Cynthia is one of the coolest seniors I know. Tyleesha has been like a big sister to me. She looks out for me and makes sure I’m okay. Tyleesha said she was friend because she felt like we would get along really well. Well To be honest I’m happy she looks to me as a friend and not just another freshman. I look up to her as a role model because she represents good behavior and how I should act instead of me just acting crazy. She is my friend because we ended up in a class together and she seemed really easy to get along with, so we just became friends. I feel the best piece she has ever given me was to go for guys that care about you for you. I feel that Tyleesha has made my high school experience a whole lot better.

...“THE ENERGY NEVER DIES” IN THE BLACK EYED PEAS’ MUSIC “We got to capture what was going on in the world and our lives. People can relate to that better because they know what we are feeling and what we are all about” (“Black-Eyed peas Interview” Ugo.com:1). -The Black Eyed Peas In the quote above a Black Eyed Peas member (Apl.De.Ap) states how he feels while recording songs and how the world inspires and understands their songwriting. Rap/Hip-hop music have been around since the late 1970’s in New York City. Icons in American songwriting are Bob Dylan and Mariah Carey. The Black Eyed Peas [Fergie, Will.i.am, Apl.De.Ap, and Taboo] need to be included in this iconic group. American songwriting will be overviewed. Six of The Black Eyed Peas’ best songs will be discussed. Kelefa Sanneh and Ann Powers both agree that The Black Eyed Peas is one of the finest songwriters in American music. In order to prove this, it is first necessary to examine songwriting. Dictionary.com defines American songwriting as: “writing the [American] music and [English] word of [American] songs” (1). Masters of Hip-Hop/Rap songwriting know what it takes to produce a quality product. Among the most important elements of outstanding songwriting are alliteration, Camarillo 2. consonance, allusion, lyric poetry, personification, and figurative language. Additional elements include couplet, simile, imagery, metonymy, onomatopoeia, and a refrain. Examples of these terms will be...

...Use rhythm, music and singing to tune IN your students to working WITH you and tune OUT the worries and distractions of other thoughts. 30 seconds of a good backing track can engage a class far more quickly than 30 minutes of our voice and instructions. They tend over time to ‘tune out’ our voices. Music instantly engages. Rhythm, music and singing help build a collaborative ‘group’ identity – the ‘singing tribe’. Call – Response patterns that emphasise rhythm and sound. eg: 1) Warm ups – French Boom Chicka Boom – (see pdf) • Using praise praises for the whole class to chant ‘well done’ to good contributors • Get the children to take over the ‘Call’ function as soon as possible from you. You are modelling skills and empowering them to model to each other as well. Children leading others is a very powerful re-inforcer and motivator. 2) Injecting backing tracks into lessons at key points • allows you ‘pick up’ or ‘calm down’ a lesson depending upon the mood. • allows you to overlay any lyrical content that you want to highlight from your lesson. • You can use songs from Sing Up website but you can also simply use the backing tracks of some key songs Example Let’s Dance backing track from Sing Up website Suggest some lyrics to practise to this track from any work you have done today. Can you see a way in which children could be asked to suggest some simple lyrics that summarise key points of a lesson...

...operator and the boom technician. Without these people a movie would not have good sound as far as dialogue and ambiance. The first job is the mixer. This person has a lot of responsibilities. They connect the mixer to the recorder along with connecting the other equipment to the mixer. They make sure that we have good sound. They do this by putting the mixer audio level at zero and then putting the recorders DB level at negative twelve. By doing this it gives them some head room incase an actor increases the ton of their voice i.e. yells at another actor, we will still have good audio. The mixer is also in charge of doing the time codes. This means they right down the time code or this time on the recorder which the audio is recording and then writes down if that take was good or bad. Next we have the cord operator. This person’s job although you may think it is pretty easy it is a very important part of this department. Without a cord operator your boom person can fall, trip, ect. because someone is on standing on the cord. This person is also in charge of keeping the cords wrapped correctly. The last job on set as far as sound goes is the boom operator. This person determines which kind of mic he or she should use for any given scene. There are a few mics for him/her to choice from. There is the lavaliere mic which is a personal mic that is attached to the actor’s person. There is a stationary lavaliere mic which is hidden in a scene. Then there is the boom mic which is...

...During the Civil War, the government had to finance for supplies such as: uniforms, weapons, and food. The money that went into buying those goods ended up in the pockets of industrialists who manufactured them. The money that they gained allowed industrialization to grow. Industrialization was infinitely bad for the U.S. society between 1865 to 1900 because it contributed to horrible working conditions, corruption, and the boom and bust cycle. Many of the jobs available during industrialization were affecting the wellbeing of the society. It says in document two that workers had disposable occupations that had the same repetitive movement to it. I say that by submitting workers through mind numbing and draining conditions, the workers were losing their humanity. And so industrialization was endangering the lives of the workers. The author’s purpose in writing was to inform the government and companies about what workers experience and is shown by the list of what workers did and suffered. Workers suffered because they were abused and taken advantage by businessmen. It says in document six that men and women were both overworked and treated worse than property. I say that the conditions in which the laborers were forced to work in were a hazard to their lives. And so industrialization negatively affected society because businessman did not care about what happen to their workers as long...

...Two weeks after graduating high school, I arrived at Shocco Springs Baptist Conference Center to begin my first “real job” and experience the most pivotal summer of my life. While most of my friends frolicked on beaches enjoying their last summer before college, my ten hour workdays as a “Summer Staffer” consisted of scrubbing floors, cleaning toilets, preparing meals, cleaning dishes, hauling trash, and busing tables. While these duties yielded an education in how to survive a gritty physical environment, the most vital education I received was in how to survive a gritty social environment. My boss was fired for stealing, a direct co-worker was arrested for murder, and another co-worker stalked me. Various fellow staff members allowed these unexpected circumstances to distract them from their daily responsibilities, but I understood that Shocco guests still demanded our services. Rather than retreat from a back-breaking job amidst criminals, I daily maintained a laser-like focus on getting my job done despite feeling intimidated. Overcoming the intimidation brought forth two lessons that changed my life forever: life will always throw you curve balls and you must adapt to them, and secondly, there is no substitute for hard work. These lessons prepared me for the real world and greatly motivated me to obtain a higher education. Upon graduating from the University of Alabama, I had a unique professional and personal opportunity to move to San Diego. Professionally, I became...

...Thesis: By examining Jack Overduin’s “Faith and Victory in Dachau”, Corrie Ten Boom’s “The Hiding Place”, and Eli Wiesel’s “Night”, it is clear that both documents present differing perspectives on the theme of providence. While both Jack and Corrie realize that both the good and bad times are in God’s hands, Eli doubts God’s existence in the bad times, and believes the desirable times arise from fate or chance. I. Introduction: (maybe use the Heidelberg Catechism Lord’s Day 10 about providence) II. How Providence is viewed when things go well. (During the favourable times, Jack Overduin and Corrie Ten Boom thank God for His blessings and care over them while Eli believes he is just getting lucky.) A. “Faith and Victory in Dachau” 1. Pg. 193 “Again and again, we compared our lives with what they had been only a few weeks before. It was a miracle of His mercy!” 2. Pg. 154 “ In His eternal wisdom God gave each of us the grace that we needed, The one received the grace to continue to live in Dachau’s torment without succumbing spiritually and morally, and the other received the grace to die.” 3. Pg. 209 “The S.S guards ate with us. What a difference! They had a dry piece of army bread, while we had delicious sandwiches made with homemade bread form our parcels. Usually, we also had cake and cookies and several kinds of fruit. A strange world...

...America in the 1920’s The Boom Period During the 1920s there was a prolonged boom in the American economy. Industrial production doubled, the economy grew rapidly and fortunes were made. Life had never seemed better for the majority of the American people. The boom developed for a number of reasons. World War I The European economies were exhausted by the cost of waging a long war. In comparison, the USA grew rich during the war years. Its late arrival to the war, and the fact that its cities and industries were not bombed or destroyed during the conflict, meant that at the end of the war it was able to capitalise on the perilous state of European industry and dominate their markets. New technologies The first 20 years of the twentieth century saw huge technological advances in industry. Factories became automated. Machines and other improved manufacturing techniques meant that huge amounts of goods could be made at a fraction of the cost. The age of mass production had arrived. In the decade of the 1920s economic output increased by a staggering 50%. Consumer boom Because goods could be produced in greater numbers and at much lower prices, more people were able to afford them. This led to huge increases in the sales of products such as cars, refrigerators, radios and cookers. Buying on credit This consumer boom was greatly aided by the availability of hire purchase - the ability to buy goods on credit. Because times were good, people were not worried about...
