My transition to Kingsville has been a blessing experience. I owed it all to the Brothers of Phi Delta Chi, who are also my roommates, Cale Davis and Jordan Tran. They took me in when almost all the apartments were filled. They even offered help to clean and move things into new place. The list can go on. They truly live by the motto to create a home away from. They were the reason why I am a Phi Delta Chi. I have received so much help. Therefore, I started to provided useful information to the future P1s and helping hands to match the predecessors. The recent visit to the Brother Chapter, Gamma Nu, has broaden my understanding of Brotherhood. One of the Pledge, now a Brother, used a stack of Jenga as analogy for Brotherhood. My interpretation
During both the movie Pleasantville, directed by Gary Ross and the book “The Catcher in the Rye” written by J.D Salinger, the main characters in both stories undergo some strong emotional changes. These changes were caused by the events they had experienced during the storyline. While both Holden and David(Bud) may seem very rigid in their personalities, they both underwent a dramatic change, even during the smaller and less meaningful events. That is why life experiences can be the modeling of a person's character and behavior, even if they may impact you in the smallest way.
A few months after Shayla was born my family decided to move to Canal Winchester. This was a big deal because moving means a new school. The next school year Desiree, James, and I were going to Tussing Elementary. We went there for a year and while I was there I was able to make dean’s list. The following year we were moved to Pickerington Elementary due to Tussing being overcrowded. After 4th grade I went to Diley Middle School, and while I was there I was able to have a spectacular time at Outdoor Edu. Before the school year was up my family moved to Reynoldsburg. When the school year was about to start I learned that I was going to be going to Lakeview Junior high instead of Ridgeview. The transition was much harder for me this time than
Good morning teachers and students. Today I am going to talk about the impact of discoveries. Do you think the impact of discoveries can be transformative? Which means the impact could change something or someone and make different impacts. This idea is represented in the film direct by Gary Ross “Pleasantville” and the poem “Journey to the Interior” by Margret Atwood.
Throughout my time at Gamma Phi Beta, I have made a lot of meaningful memories. My favorite memory may be small to most people, but it has had major impact on my life. Just a few months after joining Gamma Phi Beta, I moved into our chapter facility. On the first night of living in my roommate, who I had never really talked, and I started talking. A little over four hours, closely approach 2:00am, we had told each other our life stories, share why Gamma Phi Beta has been so impactful, and more importantly laugh at ourselves. This conversation was one of the most pivotal times in Gamma Phi Beta because it showed me that you can be completely different from a sister but still share all the same values. To this day, even though we do not live together anymore, my former is still one of my very best friends who I can tell absolutely anything. I am so fortunate that Gamma Phi Beta has given me sisters that share the same values, but can be completely different from me.
Change is always occurring. Our lives consist of fierce amounts of changes due to growth, change of mindset, experiences, and society. There is not a feasible way to avoid change. Changes can be positive or negative; nonetheless, it has a powerful influence on an individual’s life. The film Pleasantville is introduced through revealing the structure of society in the 1950s and comparing it with modernized society which is thoroughly divergent.
I moved to Yankton, South Dakota when I was 6. I moved from Kearney, NE. I was really excited to move into a new house and a new town. Yankton is smaller than my old town it's also farther away from all of my family. For the most part I like yankton, most of the people are really nice. Since there is nothing to do in Yankton besides shopping around town in little stores, or going to a movie, or even going to dinner, or just driving around, my favorite thing is going to the lake and the bridge. There for my favorite part is definitely the lake. I love the trails and the beaches and everything down there. It's so peaceful and beautiful it's just a great place to get away. I like my school too, I mean sure it has its ups and downs but in reality

How do people react when they sense change? When people sense change, the most immediate emotion they feel is fright. They do not understand the reason for the change, and most times they question whether it helps their society. In the movie Pleasantville, George Parker, Bud and Mary Sue’s father, best personifies the fear of change.
The film Pleasantville is introduced through revealing the structure of society in the 1950s and comparing it with modernized society which is thoroughly divergent. In view of this perfect black and white 1950s civilization, unvarying is the key notion in their community. The citizens reinforce the idea of maintaining their view and ideologies on life and retain it that way. On the other hand, the modernized society is utterly different and is demonstrated with colour on the residents. Their society is inconceivable compared to the society in Pleasantville. The rationale to this basis is the comfort, happiness, and consistency the residents possess. The residents do not experience the problems in the modernized society such as global warming

The movie ‘‘Pleasantville’’, written, produced and directed by Gary Ross, approaches a period in America’s history which subsequent generations idealise as a better and more stable society. He portrays this time period of the 1950s as a time when people and life were less complicated; a time when everyone knew their place in society. However, as the film ironically shows, this was a time when people were more ignorant, racist and most certainly sexist. Ross demolishes this illusion of the great 1950s American society by showing how its defects are gradually changed from black and white to colour. Ross shows that ‘change is inevitable’ once a catalyst for change is added to the ordered life of “Pleasantville”. Once David and Mary-Sue begin
We have seen it before. We have witnessed the corruption of governments before even if we didn’t even realize it. From communism to democracy, world wars to civil wars, genocides to religious upraises, government involvement has always been silently exalted. In Margaret Atwood’s ‘The Handmaids Tale’, we see the fear of the Gileadian society caused by a régime government who practices its inhumane beliefs through everyday life in Gilead. The uses of military corruption, fear, and oppression are things that describe the everyday life of the defenseless citizens of this totalitarianism government.
Everyone has fears, whether they are as small as going swimming or as big as heights, everyone has them. In the movie Pleasantville, fear of change plays a big role in the citizens of Pleasantville. The citizens are so accustomed to the same thing over and over again that when Jennifer/Mary Sue decides to do something different the whole town is disturbed by this change. For David it’s the same thing, at first he is scared to do anything different and to alter anything but after everyone he loves starts to change and they start getting assimilated, he realizes he can’t be scared and has to be brave to alter Pleasantville for the better.
People live in a certain area that has the resources they need. Including water sources, food sources, and transportation. Some of the earliest civilizations built their civilizations close to a water source like an ocean, river, or lake. According to Lesson Why do People Settle in Certain Areas, (2001-2011), “Many of the oldest and largest cities in America are located along the Atlantic Ocean.” A water source could be used for food, transportation, and as a drinking source. Some people plant crops for a food source like corn, beans, or wheat. There are many kinds of things you can use for transportation. Some examples are a boat, a car, a bus, or even an airplane.
