Bigelow and La Gaipa (1975) observed children’s friendships by asking a number of children to write an essay about their best friend using the approach called “content analysis”. William Corsaro however dictates that in order to study children you must study them in the context of their own peer culture, he used the “ethnographic approach”. In this essay I shall attempt to compare and contrast the approach used by Bigelow and La Gaipa (1975) and that taken by William Corsaro (2006).

I am applying for admission into the UW BSN program, where students are enrolled typically for eight quarters over two years. My inspiration is my mother, who is a master’s prepared nurse. For years, I have observed her using her clinical knowledge in order to maintain the health of my brother, who has unstable epilepsy. My mother’s passion and competency in her practice of nursing have inspired me to become a nurse. Since graduating from this university with a BS in Molecular Cell Biology, I have gained two years of healthcare experience as an emergency department volunteer, as well as certification and employment as a nursing assistant. Both of these experiences have augmented my desire to become a nurse. One aspect of nursing that resonates with me is my ability to connect with patients through empathy and communication, in particular to assist them through their grieving processes, as they cope with changes to their health. I believe that my nature of wanting to help those that are sick will help me to fulfill those roles. My scientific curiosity along with a background in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology and pharmacological research, which earned me the Mary Gates Research Scholarship and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute internship, will also be beneficial, when

Also, a good friend would not desire
Fifth grade was a new year for everyone. Everyone starting to try being something they aren’t. I became really close with four friends in fifth grade, Alexis, Maya, Sadie, and Sophia. Sophia and I were born on the same day, in the same hospital, in a connected room, with only forty-one minutes between our births. We became friends in first grade, we were both in Mrs. Emerick’s class, then we were both some of the smartest and everyone asked us for help on classwork. Then our friendship came to a standstill for second-grade to the beginning of fifth grade. In fourth grade, in Penn Wynne Singers (chorus) Maya and I had assigned seats next to each other. We made each others’ acquaintance and gradually became friends that way. I was introduced
Aldous Huxley exceptionally brings forth to readers the nature of friendship; this is viewed through the relationships of the characters introduced in his novel “Brave New World”. The relationships share commonalities beyond the general surface. Each character partakes a role of establishing a lack of emotional attachment and empathy towards the other in the friendship. There is also the subtle reoccurrence of character’s inducing comfort in others who share unorthodox values of the society. The reinforcement of the nature of these relationships alludes to through the social conformity between Lenina, Henry, Bernard, John, and Linda.
