There are many elements in life that we find the most joy in. Some of the elements that bring me the most joy are spending time with my family, friends and helping others mostly children. The gifts and talents I have are a source of my joy. Some of those gifts and talents include my musical ability and natural connection with children. My gifts and talents also reflect on the strengths I have which include creativity, kindness and listening. Even though there are strengths, there are also a few challenges
On September 11, 2015, British band, Bring Me The Horizon, released their fifth, most audacious, studio album: That's the Spirit. Each album, BMTH has had this progression of making their music less and less aggressive and loud, but in this new album, they have completely left the metalcore genre their previous three were, for a much more arena rock, pop, electronic and indie like album. This is immediately proven with their first track "Doomed," which is very layered at the beginning, but then
Deepwater Horizon was also based off of a true story about an oil rig explosion that caused the worst oil spill in U.S. history. The major characters are all people in real life that were involved in the intense explosion. Mark Wahlberg plays the main character, Mike Williams. Wahlberg is an actor Berg loves to work with; together they have also done Lone Survivor and Patriot’s Day. Deepwater Horizon follows the pressure that the BP Oil Company management puts on their intelligent workers for sake
How are John and Lorraine good for each other? For starters, Lorraine and John balance each other out. They keep each other grounded.They also expand one another’s horizons. In The Pigman John and Lorraine both make each other develop and mature into better people. John and Lorraine are opposites, so they balance each other out. Lorraine can be uptight, most likely due to her mother, and she doesn’t really let herself have fun. Then there is John who is the opposite and does things Lorraine wouldn’t
Consider the Bible studies going on in any given country on any given evening, where people are encouraged to interact with the sacred scriptures. As encouraging as this may be, it may present a problem. Could discussions of what a scripture ‘means to me’ cloud out what the scripture originally meant? Is it even possible to know the author’s intent? Even if we could understand a first century text as its author intended, can we also grasp what it’s supposed to mean to us? Answering these questions
As I stood there on the beach, glancing at the ocean in awe of the beautiful sight, a sudden gust of wind blew by. The strands of hair crossed my face, the sun played peek-a-boo as it made its appearance above the horizon, as if it were scared to shed the light. The smell of the salty sea tingled my nose as I took in a breath of fresh air. The sand was a mine field of corals, with a collection of many different multicolored sea shells; however, at the same time, the sand felt like a soft bed of blankets
I am the person that best represents horizon pride for many reasons. I play large roles and participate in a lot of different clubs, sports and keep high grades in both honors and AP classes. I participated on track and field and swim, I was and am in honors and AP classes, and I am in multiple clubs. I am also spirited when it comes to Horizon. I participate for most of the spirit days and go to a bunch of different school things. I have done swim for all four years of high school with this last
reader-centred theories can be applied to the theoretical position which I have adopted, as it allowed me to frame my response in terms of several theoretical perspectives. Beach has defined the textual perspective as examining the “reader’s knowledge of conventions” and the psychological perspective as examining the “reader’s cognitive or subconscious processes” (Beach, 1993, pg. 9). These definitions have allowed me to frame my response in a manner that addresses these perspectives; due to the textual expectations
“Ships at a distance have every man’s wish on board. For some they come in with the tide. For others they sail forever on the horizon, never out of sight, never landing until the Watcher turns his eyes away in resignation, his dreams mocked by death by Time. That is the life of men. Now, women forget all those things they don’t want to remember, and remember everything they don’t want to forget. The dream is the truth. Then act and do things accordingly.” I think that this quote from the book describes
establish the eye level/horizon in background between the sky and the field. The diagonal lines define the field and are in an opposite direction of the diagonal lines that define the trunk off the tree in the middle of the picture. The diagonal lines in the field, the horizon line, and the edge of the painting create a linear perspective. B. Shape – The most obvious shape is the round sun in the upper left of the painting. The bottom of the sun is going into the horizon to represent sunset. The
Beyond The Horizon and Diff'rent by Eugene O'Neill In Beyond the Horizon and Diff'rent, Eugene O'Neill reveals that dreams are necessary to sustain life. Through the use of the characters Robert Mayo, Andrew Mayo, Ruth and Emma Crosby, O'Neill proves that without dreams, man could not exist. Each of his characters are dependent on their dreams, as they feed their destiny. When they deny their dreams, they deny their destiny, altering their lives forever. O'Neill also points out, that following
first is individualism which is selfish and self-centered. The modern concept is bothersome because people see freedom as loosening the chains of traditional notions of hierarchy. We have become a society where we are breaking away from “older moral horizons.” Everything in creation is connected in some way and when there is a loose hierarchy there follows a loose meaning of life. The “dark side of individualism” the focuses on the self in such a way that it flattens and narrows the framework which give
In the book Night by Elie Wiesel, it is very easy to become fixated, and consumed by the negative situations that occur. I chose to use the themes of Faith, Hope, and Love. It is particularly difficult for me to find examples of these themes throughout the book, especially towards the culmination. This relates to how it is very easy to focus on the negative things in life. Everything depends upon the lens you choose to look through. Faith is mostly seen at the beginning of the text. The farther
I remember parking my car on the side of Ocean Drive, admiring the view in front of me. Mentally, I was preparing myself for the journey that was to come from my first time at a beach in Miami. Walking towards the beach, I watched beautiful people having the time of their lives. There were locals jogging and enjoying the sun, while tourists were sight seeing, admiring their surroundings. The warmth on my feet as I walked through the sand brought forth feelings of excitement, knowing that my day would
When I look at this painting filled with distinctive brown, black and yellow strokes amongst the background of men portrayed as savages laying on top of each other, the artist Theodore Gericault, transports me to a scene that elicits countless emotions. The oil painting, The Raft of the Medusa, depicts the story of a French Royal Navy frigate that set sail in 1816 to colonize Senegal. Unfortunately, the incompetent captain had run the ship into a sandbank, forcing the 150 survivors to create a raft

How to take great family photos Photos are one of the best ways to remember special moments. What would a family vacation, graduation, or birthday be without great photos to remember the moment? But, most family vacation photos are not great; they tend to be off center, blurry, and are just low quality in general. Now, there is nothing wrong with low quality family photos, as long as they mean something to you, they are valuable. But, wouldn’t it be nice to have crystal clear, professional quality
of space exploration into two major branches. These branches are unmanned and manned spaceflight. Thesis: I'd like to start by giving attention to unmanned spaceflight, looking into a few notable discoveries made by these technologies. I will then bring together how these findings have fueled the desire for a continual presence of mankind in space, which can seen through the inception of the International Space Station.

experience that will help me reflect on and enhance my knowledge. Every upperclassman that I have talked to told me that going to preseason will help me understand the importance of what we have learned so far. It will also prepare me for future classes as well as PT school. Preseason football will allow me to grow as a student and a future clinician.
