...Through my life I have met a lot of people with the same talents I have. One of the most common talent I have with other people is the ability to play sports. I used to be active in all possible sports in middle school. Once in high school, I had to make a decision about what sports I was going to play since it was harder to do all of them, therefore I chose soccer. Playing soccer has been a challenge because of some difficulties, but it has also taught me so much. When I was in Matamoros I wasn’t able to join a soccer team because our financial status, but I would play with my cousins and also I would watch the soccer games on TV. It has been a tradition for the family to get together when a main soccer game is going on, especially if the national team is going to play. Also for main tournaments like the champions, the Olympics, the world cup, between...

...this essay, I will be discussing the changes I would like to change as a citizen, learning profiles that best characterize who I am and discussing the biggest goal I set for my life. Last, I also want to discuss what type of format learner I am. Part of being a great citizen is to support the environment. I currently recycle; however, my wish is to recycle frequently. I should recycle due to almost everything we use today is made up of recyclable material. For instance, reusing our water bottles can reduce cost of making new water bottles. If we do not recycle, our landfills will only get bigger and it can damage our environment by taking up our free land. Since recycling is good for the environment, it can save companies from using unnecessary...

...“I WANT YOU FOR THE U.S. ARMY!” Now, what would you do if someone were to ask you this? Or if you seen it out in town on a poster? Would you pay any attention to it or just walk on by? Most people would honestly just walk on by, unless, there was something in that particular poster that had caught their attention. Recruiting ads have changed over the years, but this one was popular. This particular recruiting advertisement was an effective argument because of their slogan, Uncle Sam, his stare, his point, and the use of America’s colors; red, white, and blue. I would say this particular recruiting image was for men or boys. Back then it were only the men or boys who could actually join the army. So, this poster excluded any women and girls because they were not allowed to join. The main targeted audience for this was for the younger men and boys, and for more than one reason. The younger they are, the more apt they are to be healthier. The army wants them to be younger because they can move more quickly and act upon things faster than someone who is older. They also want the men who don’t already have a family started because then they won’t have that worry while out in battle and can focus better on what they need to do. Where is the place where you see most advertisements for things? Out in town, right? This image was more than likely posted out in town on public buildings as well, that is where most of a town’s population goes for many different reasons. Having it out where...

Most Australian soldiers had enlisted to join the war because there was little work around or the Australian male citizen was about to be sacked. This had made the Australian army a solution to this problem of unemployment and having the army pay for their services this many unemployed Australians Join. As extract from a letter by Robert Edmund Antill between 1914 and 1917, “Philpott had only about 3 days work left for us and things are so bad out there is a drought on. so...

...I don’t like that rule because the government is not giving young people a choice. What if the young people don’t want to be associated with the military? If young people want to do something else with their life then they should do it out of choice. You can’t force someone to do something if they don’t want to do it. Some of the main points of why I don’t particularly like this rule are: what about the young person’s family and friends, what if they want to do something else, and what if we don’t want to join the military. When someone says that you had to fight in war you would be pretty worried and scared. Also when they force you to join you also get mad. You especially get mad when you have to fight in a war that your country...

...Title “Boring” if I had to summarize my life up that is the word I would use boring. My life is like a broken tape recorder, same thing every single day. Its not like live bad but I want something different something out of the box something I haven’t done before. I spend most of my days in the house playing games doing chores around the house the usual. I used to go outside but there is nothing out there for me since my brother left. He went to live with his dad and I stayed with my mom that was the first time we didn’t live together weird at first but I’m used to it. We see each other on the weekend and have some good fun but when he left I got bored and fast. My mom tells me “go outside a boy your age should spend his time somewhere else than at home.” Which I would gladly would if I could leave a little far away but since there is no one with me which my older brother used to fill that spot. I was cut down drastically on how for I can go. My mom finally got tired of me eating all her food so She says, “ I tired of you lagging around the house you have to join a club and if you don’t pick one I will....

...Why do you wish to join C Platoon? I would like to join C Platoon as it offers one of the best opportunity to take part of teamwork. I'd like to work with a group of people and share common interest in things. The teamwork that C Platoon is offering is overly astonishing and I wish to take part of the team as I would be a great asset to the team and working for the division in general.

...scientology for exposing them that her name is not even allowed to pop up under scientology on Google. In the United States, it is estimated that there are 5,000 cults that are actively recruiting people, no matter the age and walks of life. Jan Groenveld made it her mission to help people recognize cults, spiritually abusive behaviors and how to defend them from persuasion. Because the beliefs in cults are so believable people become locked into a “thinking box” which makes them unable to see the world around them. The topic that I chose to analyze is religious cults. I chose this because I thought it was interesting to explore the unknown and secret world of persuasion. A cult is any group that uses mind control techniques to get someone to join. A religious cult is very demanding and the leader wants full loyalty from their followers. They are motivated by having more members which gives them a sense of reassurance and makes them feel like they are doing a good job. Money, power,...

...Cheerleader When I was in seventh grade, it was girls basketball season, it was about a quarter through the season, and Mrs. Evalo asked the school board if she could start the cheerleading program. Obviously they said yes or I wouldn't be writing this, but when she asked them and got all of the clarifications to start the program she got a sign up ready and they asked girls and guys if they wanted to join the program, and she got a team together. This is their second year doing cheerleading for middle school. They have two seasons, girls basketball and boys basketball, they don't do tryouts, so anyone can become a cheerleader, they would like to have guys to do cheerleading, but don't have any yet (so if you want to join after boys basketball...

...one in every town every city every state. Many people could say that they are scared of them because they are big and bad. Then when you talk to the young boys they would tell you that they are the protection of the streets. My friends are always there when I need them. In the following paragraphs I would like to discuss the gangs in America and what they mean to people today. Now let’s first start off with the definition of a gang. According to the freedictionary.com the definition of what a gang is “a group of people who associate together or act as an organized body for criminal or illegal purposes.” According to a 2005 report there are approxiametely, there are at least 21,500 gangs and more than 731,000 active gang members in the United States(Grabianowski, 2011). Every violent crime that happens in America most of the time comes from a gang. There are no more of the traditional gangs now. The Crips and the Bloods are no more. You now have smaller factions who the younger kids as young as thirteen have gangs such as crews or cliques. There are many reason why a person would even join a gang lets discuss it. Now there are many reason why a person would even think about joining a gang lets discuss a few of them or even all of them. The first reason why a person would thing about joining a gang would first be there are very bored. When you have no ambition about yourself you tend to turn to things that you should not turn to such as robbing, stealing and also killing...

...It happened in the gym, when I was in elementary school. My cheeks were flushed and warm from bouncing nonstop on the hop ball. I relaxed for a minute, and enjoyed the cool air conditioning that caressed my red face. I could almost hear the sizzling. I felt the handle of the hop ball that were gripped in my iron hands. Kids around me were unceasingly playing. Some were shooting hoops, while the rest, like me, were being goofballs and bouncing around, even racing on the hop balls, seeing who could go pass the red line at the end of the gym, first. I heard the joyous laughter that made me want to join in again, so I bounce high. When I came to the glistening gym floor, I felt a sharp pain in my lower back, but it receded as fast as it appeared....

...He only joined Luffy because the restaurant basically kicked him out and forced him to join the Straw Hats, but Luffy, being a Marine, would already have a chef, so Sanji wouldn't join. Chopper isn't even worth discussing. Chopper is similar to Sanji, where Luffy would already have a doctor and would have no need to visit Drum Island. [I]Robin was literally just a criminal her entire life known as "Demon Child Robin." I can't see her joining the Marines, her enemy. Franky would also have no reason to join the crew if we're being clear here. Same with Brook. Like I'm not even going to go into why with these two. There's just no reason for them to join him if he's a Marine. Straw Hat Crew's Fate So in the end, if none of the Straw Hats had joined Luffy, their lives would be shit. Zoro would've been executed my Morgan, Nami would've remained a slave of Arlong until the day she died, Usopp would've just stayed on his little island, Sanji would work in the sea restaurant forever, Chopper would've wasted his life at Drum Island, Robin would forever be running from the government, Franky would just be chilling at water 7, and Brook would be left to wander the oceans for all eternity without a shadow. It's kind of sad to think about how much Luffy has changed their lives throughout the Manga /...

...Collins, Robert Billings, Brian Ammon, Carl Block and Alex Cooper I would say that Laurie Saunders is the main character, because it’s often in her perspective you see things. She’s also the one who doesn’t really believe that the wave is a good thing and that makes her different from the others. Amy Smith is Laurie's’ friend who is a little bit shy and kind of lives in Laurie’s shadow. She’s like the third wheel to Laurie and her boyfriend David, she seems to be interested in David’s friend but is to shy to do anything. Ben Ross is the teacher who introduced the Wave to the students. He seems to be a really good teacher that everyone likes and has a wife that loves him. When he wants to do something he dedicates his life to it. David Collins is a guy who plays football and is Laurie’s boyfriend. He seems to be a funny guy who wants to help his football team that sucks. So he introduces the Wave to the team and it seems to work pretty good. Robert Billings is a bullied guy that nobody likes. He is the one who gets most dedicated to the Wave because it makes him one of the gang because everyone is equal in the Wave. You haven’t heard so much about Brian Ammon, but he is David’s friend and plays in the football team together with David. Carl Block and Alex Cooper are best friends and works at the Grapevine with Laurie, the are funny guys who are more independent than others because the do not join the wave. Why did Mr Ross start his experiment? He started it...

...When I first heard about Jonestown a little over a year ago, my first thought was that Jim Jones was just a mentally disturbed and paranoid preacher and his following must have been compromised entirely by gullible people. This is the second college course in which I have studied the Peoples Temple and I have learned that there were so many more dynamics at play than I ever could have guessed on my own. It intrigued me how so many people could end their own lives and their children’s lives under the direction of one man. A lot of sources simply document the horror that occurred by describing the actions of the members and displaying photos of the end result. Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple, directed by Stanley Nelson, actually...
