Middlesex Essay

At my graduate assistantship at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ), the graduate students from Monmouth were introduced to a few of the key offices that work with Residential Education and Housing. Through this introduction, I was able to meet Kelly Hennessy, who is the current Associate Dean of Students in the Department of Health and Wellness at The College of New Jersey. As a future Student Affairs professional, one of my end goals would ultimately become a Dean of Students, so it was exciting to interview Hennessy and see how she got to where she is today. Originally when Hennessy first started her college years, she thought that she wanted to be a teacher. After working with the professionals in her Residence Life Office and Leadership Office at the University of Buffalo, where she received both her bachelors and master’s degrees, she realized that her passion was no longer teaching, but rather to become the professionals she was surrounded and inspired by every day. Hennessy has worked in Residence Life for majority of her career up to about two years ago when the Department of Health and Wellness first started on TCNJ’s campus.

Moreover, the author portrays the character’s loneliness, feelings, and emotions as a result of her physical and mental distress. Similarly represented in Willow Weep for Me and its depiction of Danquah, her sister, and friends’ alienation and isolation regarding their clinical depression (Danquah). Further, the “pain” and “whimpers” are the physical and emotional responses to her illness, which can be compared to Grealy’s bodily response to chemotherapy, “wanting to turn itself inside out, made wave after wave of attempts to rid itself of this unseeable intruder, this overwhelming and noxious poison” (66).

However, Deborah’s atonement is not what provides closure to Lily’s solace. Instead August’s acceptance and love provides Lily with enough comfort to begin her process of self acceptance. Early in the book, Lily demeans herself by saying “You are unlovable, Lily Owens. Unlovable. Who could love you? Who in this world could ever love you?”(Kidd 242). Lily begins to create her own cage of dark emotions with thoughts like this. With her mother unable to Lily for the unfortunate accident that caused her death, Lily is left feeling closed off from the world and believing it is wrong for her to want to be loved again. However readers can start to see Lily opening up after August explains to her that, “Every little thing wants to be loved,” (Kidd 92). Lily begins to feel accepted and loved within the new family she has found, and she is able to begin the process of

“You don’t know this, you can’t do this, you don’t know any of this information!” screamed my brain as I took the test to get into my dream highschool, MAST. The Marine Academy of Science and Technology is one of the five schools in the Monmouth County Vocational School District. It is dedicated to marine biology, which has always been a passion of mine. It was my goal to be accepted to MAST and for it to be my high school. I was trying extremely hard to achieve this and learned many new things about myself. During my attempt to make it into MAST, I worked hard, made sacrifices, and endured severe stress.

A trait that stands out in the book is the symptom of bodily memories. In Melinda’s case, during a frog dissection in her science class, she remembers the opening up and even says, “She doesn’t say a word. She is already dead. A scream starts in my gut – I can feel the cut, smell the dirt, feel the leaves in my hair.” (81). One of the other symptoms that Melinda has is self-harm. The first time that this is shown in the book, Melinda says this, “I open up a paper clip and scratch it across the inside of my left wrist. Pitiful. If a suicide attempt is a cry for help, then what is this? A whimper, a peep?” (87). Melinda also has a hard time talking to her parents about the rape to which she says, “How can I talk to them about that night? How can I start?” (72). Some victims recover from such a traumatic experience, while others don’t and live a lifetime of depression and must undergo intense therapy. In Melinda’s case, she finds redemption by talking to her parents and the guidance counselor, and putting her faith into her teachers, friends, and her art project at school. Because rape can affect anybody anywhere, everyone should be aware of the circumstances, and how to deal with it.

The stocking quantity and expected profits are higher in the second scenario because of the extra time spent to improve the quality of profile section. By spending the extra time to improve the profile section, Anna Sheen increased the overall quality of her newspaper, which will, most likely, lead to an increased probability of demand for her newspaper around the area. This increased demand will raise Anna Sheen’s stocking quantity and the daily expected profits that are associated with that individual stocking quantity.

When she sees that it is her friend Charlotte in this heart breaking situation, she says: “gracious heaven is this possible? And bursting into tears, she reclined the burning head of Charlotte on her own bosom; and folding her arms about her, wept over in silence” [125]. In this passage, Mrs. Beauchamp proves how sentimental and good she could be because not only does she have a sick child at home, but she finds the time to actually care about others and because she actually cries for Charlotte, a person who is not even her relative. She is a sentimental person because she is the only one that in the beginning offered Charlotte her friendship and because thanks to her, Charlotte’s father is able to see Charlotte one last time and forgive her. In many cases, this might be confused with weakness but it is not weakness. It is the ability to feel others pain as your own, it is the ability to care for others as you would your own relative; it is being a moral person and only through the act of sensibility can this be shown. In a situation like this, an immoral person might have only thought about their own problems and not the problems of others.

Hunterdon county is a New Jersey is not known for much. It has about twenty-seven towns and is located in central New Jersey. There are no big cities or any sports teams. It is mostly a rural county with tons of farms and woods. There is not much to do for the younger generation. Everything is a good drive away. For me the beach, New York City, and Philadelphia are all about a one hour drive away from me. Many people leave Hunterdon after college because they want to start their lives and these maps are showing that many chose not to do that in Hunterdon.

Jack London, an American author known for his thrilling adventure stories, showed the world that even an exciting story that takes place in exotic settings can include all the intricacies of great literature. This is seen in many of his stories with the implementation of symbolism, many times a recurring theme in his work. Also, London used many ideas of the day such as Darwinism and Spencerism in his writings in order to better portray his views. However, perhaps one of the most telling signs that London wrote good literature was through London's mastery of a rising literary movement known as naturalism.

As a liberal arts college (#6), Wellesley is able to provide an environment where I can develop my skills in multiple subjects. According to a close friend of my family, she said that she was at first uncertain of the small class sizes.

I would like to either minor or double major in one of these subjects at Wellesley. Furthermore,
