As I look back at what happened on that cold day, I realized that, ultimately, I have made a poor decision by not planning properly and put not just myself, but also my classmates in danger by not appropriately measuring the risks involved in an unknown situation. The only reason things turned out okay in the end, was because we were fortunate enough that the good samaritan stopped for us. For me, the lesson that I learned that day is something that is going to be very important as I pursue my first LOVE, psychiatry. As a psychiatrist, I realize that all-too-often my psychiatric patients can make poor decisions just like I did that day. To try living their life, not realizing what their psychiatric illnesses, (Bipolar or Schizophrenia,) when
It’s ironic how one seemingly insignificant event can create such a big impact on an individual’s life. Two summers ago, I assisted my teacher by watching over children ranging from seven to eight years old. Prior to this experience, I saw children as a form of nuisance and distraction. They would often ask me to help them with tasks I initially saw as miniscule, such as tying their shoes. However, on what seemed like an ordinary day, the children were playing in the park when I noticed a stranger conversing with one of them. Feeling that something was off, I perceived this as a threat to the children. A surge of peril and solicitous emotions overcame me to protect the welfare of the student. Before I could make out his face, he noticed me
As I walked over to them, I said a prayer in my head. “Dear God, this is my one shot. Please help me be able to stay calm, cool, and collected,” I thought. All of a sudden, I
Snow days have been renown ever since institutions had started in human history. It can affect someone in a harmful or beneficial depending upon the person themselves. For those who enjoy spending their free time indulging in academic or personal pleasures would surely enjoy unintentional day offs. I would and would not count myself in that category since I enjoy spending my free time while not at the same time. School may be flawed, but I still enjoy the subtle feeling that motivates me to work on my future studies.
The next day we had a pretty chill day because seniors are just taking pictures for the yearbook. We were just in the auditorium until lunch. They also remind us to start applying for college. Alicia and I already applied in UCLA, USC and UCR. I totally want to go to UCR because my friends there told me that it is very fun there but UCLA and USC are both felicitous universities as well. We’ll just hope for the best, we just certainly want to go to college.
It was a gloomy afternoon in Athens, Ohio. It was just raining, and the roads were still shimmering with the cold heavy rain drops. I was walking home from the grocery store. I always have to pass the Insane Asylum. Not only the people who are kept there are Insane, but the people who work there are too. As I was walking I met one of my coworkers.
Temperature conditions are critical in determining sufficient winter chill exposure. However, the process is physiological and likely to be driven by other, yet undetermined, processes (Dennis, 1994). Hormonal controls have been suggested as the mechanism, with early research proposing the process is controlled by a balance of growth promoters and inhibitors (Amen, 1968). More recent research

This day, in particular, the junior class was off to a college fair for a majority of the day. I can remember having a great time exploring what my future could possibly look like. There were so many options and I felt as if nothing could bring me and my classmates down on that day. However, I was wrong. We had only been at the college fair for approximately an hour an a half before people started getting calls from their parents. I first heard that there was someone in our school with a gun when my friend’s mom called her asking if she was alright. Not too soon after, the Harrisburg junior class was evacuated from the college fair into a gym until our mentors could figure out what we were to do next. After numerous calls from worried parents, we were told to get on the bus so we could get evacuated to Harrisburg South Middle School, a school not too far from the high school, to meet up with the
This summer I did many fun and some rather boring activities. I traveled to many places this summer. I went to Philadelphia to visit my sister, Chicago to see the Shedd Aquarium, and went to Cedar Point with my sister. I also spent a lot of time outside. I ran with the middle school for cross country so I would be in shape. I also went fishing and caught a foot long bass. I went to a Tincap game with one of my friends, Alex. Also, ate at Cracker Barrel with my family. I stayed indoors and watched Netflix. I relaxed in bed a lot too. I did many fun activities, but the event that involves science the most is swimming. I went swimming in my swimming pool, and there are many sciences of swimming I did not know about.
It was the perfect day to hang out with my friends since we were all so jubilant due to the enduring weekend that was approaching. Every week seems to pass slower and time ticks by until we are faced by summer causing us to be separated. The weekend was something all of my friends and I looked forward to. Whether it is playing football, talking, or just relaxing on the couch, we can always make a tedious day entertaining. It became more challenging to associate with my friends due to my parents having a strong disliking for some of them.
In the arctic, there is a layer of the soil known as permafrost. In this layer, there is a large concentration of CO2, or Carbon Dioxide. The environment can only handle a certain amount of CO2 at a time. Most of this CO2 is released through the burning of fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels burn slowly releasing small amounts at a time. Scientists previously believed that the CO2 in the layers of permafrost would eventually be released all at once, triggering irreversible global warming effects. However, testing of these permafrost layers has now revealed that the CO2 will escape gradually. This gradual escape is good news to scientists, because it means the world will have time to prepare for the effects of it. However, there is not much
Throughout history, cold has been defined in numerous ways. As scientists began to take a closer look at the effects of cold and the causes, these individuals collectively came up with their own definition. Some of the definitions spoken upon seem very similar, while some have been clearly drastically different from one another. Consequently, cold has the ability to have diverse meanings in terms of what context the word will be used in. In turn, the Oxford English Dictionary has defined the word cold in many different ways. For the sake of this paper, though, we will define cold as “of or at a low or relatively low temperature, especially when compared with the human body” (Oxford English Dictionary). The meaning behind this is that cold is
Some outdoor advertisers will have the reader believe that humans have been trying to return to the life of a feral predator ever since the day Homo Habilis used a rock to kill a mole and, in doing so, invented the tool. (Livescience, 2016) Others have portrayed the great outdoors as this awesome getaway place that is wild enough to have a campfire and necessitate the use of a camper trailer but not so wild that they aren’t able to dress in casual businesswear and have perfectly groomed hair. Of course, there is a reason for both of these extremes in advertisements. The range of people who buy outdoor gear is extremely broad. At one end of the spectrum are the people who wake up from their monotonous
Endih was a place of cold and sadness. My father and mother were killed by a Kalag, a horrible beast. My father was a very powerful man. He was the ruler of our frosted planet. When he died, I became the ruler, but I was very young, too young. I had no idea what I was doing. Endih was in chaos.
