A variety of students have told me that they’d never be in marching band because it demands a lot of time and dedication. Though I concede that band does require a lot of time, it still is not enough reason to not be in it. Every discourse community is different when it comes to their goals, ideals, and diversity. They require different attributes in order to effectively join them, in other words to “fit in” but certainly they all require commitment and time. Therefore, I encourage everyone to join band, some of your best memories will root from it as well as long lasting friendships that can benefit you in the future. I am personally a part of the band community, especially the marching band side and can prove it through the use of logos, ethos, and pathos.

World renowned science fiction author, Isaac Asimov, stated, “Today’s science fiction is tomorrow’s science fact.” This quote rings very true in the sense that science fiction grants us the power to predict the future. Through these fictitious texts, we gain valuable insight into significant issues and matters both known and unknown. Although upon original release, these texts remain a mere glimpse into seemingly impossible technologies and societies, the true beauty of the genre, is that over time, we can see a definite parallel between the predictions made by authors and reality. In Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, this is exemplified through implications of corporate greed, advanced technologies and bureaucratic societies

My newly developed techniques and latest findings direct me for further innovative studies in the emerging field of environmental sciences towards conservation, detect environmental controlling parameters, biological function of living organisms and their interaction to the environment, and develop new technologies to protect the environment and public health.

A small woman stepped inside, “Sorry Captain,” she cringed as he groaned. Renegade was a tad bit annoyed, his serenity had been interrupted and unfortunately, the pointless scenarios he was playing in his head had vanished. “What is it?” he mumbled. The woman straightened her posture as she leaned against the chrome doorway, “Um well we’ll be landing soon. Your presence has been requested in the command room.” Notes of excitement could be detected in her voice and it was quite obvious that she was trying to conceal them. “Thank you Lux, let them know I’ll be there in a minute.”

Like any other person, Zaid lived his childhood day by day. He has never thought of the future because that is how a kid is; they live life in the present and only the present. As time passed, nothing changed; he reached his teenage years and still nothing new, just living every day and waiting for tomorrow with no expectations or assumptions. In this period of age, all of his friends had already set goals and planned their futures, each friend with a different dream. Yet that was not for him, he was really satisfied with living for each day and never looking towards the future.
