Recommended: Brief introduction of love and lust

My best friend in high school, she was in a relationship with a guy, who happens to be my best guy friend, since our freshmen year and was dating him till our Junior year, they were inseparable and were voted as the Class of 2016 cutest couple for 3 years in a row. They were perfect for each other, even her strict serious scary parents approved of it. It happened so fast though, all of sudden, they both started being distant from one another. She was being depressed and grouchy, which is unusual. I asked her what happened and she acted like I didn’t ask her anything, I was hurt cause she was like older sister. She told me to mind my own business, which hurt even more, but I shrugged it off and walked away from her. I didn’t want to deal …show more content…

The he/she you meet isn’t your other half, cause you clearly have dated people in the past and most probably thought along those same lines, or will date people in the future and obviously state those same lines. It’s like you are living in a movie. Wake up! It’s not a dream, this is reality, for Lord sakes. If he/she was your other half, why break off the relationship then? Oh maybe it’s cause I don’t know, he/she isn’t your other half. Love brings you pain, your ideology of love most probably means peace, happiness and being treated like royalty, but be realistic, it doesn’t work like that! Love brings pain. It brings too much pain into our lives for no reason, why do we have to live our life without our partner we love so dearly? Why do we have to watch them die right in front of our eyes? Why do we have to fight frequently with our loved one? You know why? Because life is unpredictable, life is bipolar, it creates these scenarios that bring us joy or pain and various other emotions. You can’t just assume or determine that you love someone because you don’t truly love him or her, you love your idealistic view of him or her. Love isn’t

    As most would likely find it common, all three interviewees had their greatest loss pertaining to death. Susan, Liz, and Dave all went through a period of struggle when losing someone they loved dearly. Susan lost her father, Liz lost her brother, and Dave lost his brother. With each interview being very distinct from one another, specific parts of each interview stood out from the rest. For instance, in Susan's interview, the words she used to describe what she lost stood out.

Going into Liz's interview, there were numerous things that stood out to me. First and foremost, was the

    For my “How to do” speech my goal was to share with the class an interesting and informative way to learn something new. Due to the speeches time limit, I knew I needed to be well prepared. I wanted to be less nervous before and during my speech. While presenting I was nervous, but I didn’t really have time for these feelings to sink in because I was focused on the information I wanted to share with the audience. I enjoyed presenting in the second group of speeches so I could see my peers different types of speaking style. The audience seemed alert and interested in my topic which made it a little bit easier for me to speak, because there weren’t any distractions in the room from people not paying attention.

    Many people take for granted the opportunities they receive through the hard work of others, but this attitude needs to stop because it has become the “norm” for students to expect their teachers and professors to provide them with an education. While it is true that in the United States, students are required to attend school until the age of eighteen, many children around the world lack this luxury. This “right” is commonly looked down upon by students, because they do not have the motivation to succeed, as they did not have to work to get into school and to pay for their schooling. Everyone takes something for granted, whether it is an education, a roof over one’s head, food on the table, or the commencement speaker at one’s high school graduation, everyone forgets to be thankful. As Admiral McRaven stated, “But of all the things I remember, I don’t have a clue who the commencement speaker was that evening, and I certainly don’t
