How School and Music Has Made Me a Better Person

because I have a desire to me in management at this point in my career. What is important to me was to look at this way to be a better employee, in reacting to management styles. I also wanted to take different aspects of management and implement them into being a leader in my family. I have had several managers that I have respected during my career and certain attributes I wanted to emulate. My current manger David Taggerty took the time out to discuss his role as a leader and how he got into leadership…

expected, and frightening me to death with her little surprise. Then mere seconds later, after the doctor removed the umbilical cord from around her little pink neck, I heard her soft, sweet cry. In that instant, I knew she would be mama’s little fighter. Now here we are, 10 years later, and she still manages to amaze me every day. My daughter, Alexis, has tremendously changed my life and made me a better person by teaching me patience, showing me strength, and motivating me to improve myself. Never…

ever would be presented to me. Through the cruelty of circumstance, he had been blessed. Movement three: Allegro Vivace It was never greed which led me to make my decision, but rather the desire to know know struggle. For much too long, I had been too comfortable with my own pianistic ability. Thus, music was no longer fulfilling: no longer challenging nor rewarding. Thoughts poisoned my mind, yet I was middle aged and knew it would be cowardly for fear to allow me to abandon great aspirations…

Music and motion pictures, two of the most popular forms of entertainment today, can easily be traced back hundreds of years ago. Yet a relatively newer form of entertainment (and information) has impacted those long-established industries in as little as a few years: the internet. Recorded music, technically speaking, can be traced back to April 9th, 1860 with “Au Clair de la Lune” by Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville . Though music existed long before this date, it marks the first time music…

My school has asked me to be a part of their planning committee for the new school. The committee has asked me to include an idea on how the school could be improved to help students get a better education. My idea revolves around students like me who have disabilities such as ADHD, ADD, OCD, and many other students with disabilities. Students learn very differently. We students learn our own way and many of us need special help from people who understand how we work. So I propose that the school…

influences have made me the person I am? It was a Tuesday afternoon and I was just getting to my psychology class and as usual I was chit chatting with my neighbors in class, Cpl Christie and Fausnight about the things that each of us did this weekend. Just when I had finished talking to Kara (Fausnight) about her weekend our psychology teacher Dr. Douglas walks in. As she is walking in I in my peppy self- personality ask how her weekend went. Dr. Douglas then proceeded to tell me that it was "none…

Hip-hop is one of the most popular genres of music in the world today. However, the hip-hop of today’s world is very different from the hip-hop that started it all. Hip-hop has simply evolved to a different type of music than the hip-hop that started it all. Hip-hop started in Brooklyn in 1973 at a block party with DJ Kool Herc, known as the father of hip-hop, mixing the beats. However, hip-hop has changed. There are the advances in technology to help make different sounds for songs. There…

the planet has a goal set in life, but only a handful attempt to improve to obtain their goal by studying the subject their goal is in. In my English class, English 101 this quarter I was astonished by how much I had progressed as a writer sharpening my writing skills and also learned a lot about writing that I hadn’t learned before. In my writing portfolio for this quarter I had to write an autobiography essay, a research essay, and this reflection essay to develop my writing skills better. The writing…

HOW HAS CLASSICAL MUSIC CHANGED THE WORLD How has classical music changed the world we live in? The world we live in has changed but Classical music has remained the same. Classical music isn’t really prevalent in today’s society. Classical music doesn’t appeal to this generation. Classical music is more appreciated by older generations. Classical Music is not as popular today as it used to be. It has been around for hundreds of years and it is the oldest type of music out there. Classical music…

inspired by others and are ourselves an inspiration to ohers. So who has inspired me? Well, as a young person there were many people who inspired me. I didn't have a particularly easy childhood, as I grew up in relative poverty and my parents divorced when I was aged 8, after a traumatic marriage. Still, I managed to developed a fairly positive, life is a "glass half full" attitude, due in the main to positive people who inspired me. Some of them were family members, who managed to be positive in…
