We rotated the My Story posters pretty successfully except for one in Charlotte, NC and one here at my office in Birmingham, AL. These are two more incidents where paint peeled from the wall. The one here in Birmingham actually took off the top layer of drywall too. I have since covered the area up with another decal, but thought I should add this to the conversation now because it will be a problem when I take this one down. What solution might you have for this?
UK government was very swift in its response the financial crisis. Various measures were taken to address the economic anomaly that came with the crisis. These range from various monetary policies to fiscal policies. Some of these policies are discussed below:
Since the early days of the United States, the Founding Fathers and other brilliant minds sought ways to understand and make sense of the inner workings of society and the economic market. Out of the many thinkers and developers of that time period, perhaps none made so great an impact on American society as the Scottish contemporary philosopher and political economist, Adam Smith—who is most known for his influential work, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, By the early nineteenth century, other streams of economic theory emerged from various individuals who were also influenced by the ideas of Smith. Some of these individuals included David Ricardo, Karl Marx and later John Maynard Keynes and Milton Friedman—each of whom contributed their own ideas on economic activity. However, it was Smith’s ideas on capitalism and his laissez-faire approach to free markets that have transcended other economic theories and continue to impact American economic thought to this day.

This is my first online class. I will be graduating next fall with my associates in Human Services. I have enjoyed all of my classes over the last couple of years, except Math. I am not a great Math student.
Rain drips down the waiting room window, it’s soothing pitter patter putting me into a trance. Drip drop, drip drop, and just for a moment, I relax. Today is the day that determines how my family’s life is going to go from here on out. A few tests will tell us whether or not I would get to keep my mother in my life or if she would be taken away from me forever. She has been having pounding headaches everyday for the last few weeks, and she’s been having moments where her vision would completely disappear, leaving her blind for a few seconds if not a full minute. I know that whatever is happening isn’t good, but I really hope it’s not what I think it is.
While I feel there are adversities presented to all people throughout life, I find mine stem from having to hard work for things I want to accomplish and not being blessed with the best abilities, it is my competitive nature that allows me to be who I am today. The drive that I feel in school or on the mound, the drive being to be the best I can be and to be a competitor. I always want to feel as if I am the best. The work I put in, on and off the baseball field, in and outside of school, all of it, has always been for one purpose; to get better and to be the best possible. Often when asked about my mental drive (most often by parents) I try to explain the feeling, the feeling or rather need to be better than anyone around you. Some get discouraged
My struggle is daily and agonizing, it has been with me since my mother let me eat orange cheese puffs after years of relentlessly removing the Red 40 dye from my diet. After countless memories of chewable chalk vitamins and freshly squeezed carrot juice, my mother had finally given up on her “Health Nut” lifestyle for my brother and I. Of course, this did not mean I could drink stacks of sugar induced drinks and eat mounds of chocolate candies, but it was a start of being able to purge on pepperoni pizza without having to take a supplement. Although Doritos and cheeseburgers interested me, I personally found my love in carbohydrates.
“Our lives begin to end the moment we stay silent about things that matter” -Martin Luther King Jr. In history, many people have taken a stand for race, religion, gender, or human rights in general. It is common to walk around downtown Chicago and see a blown up rat or a group of protesters outside of a business or store. Although sometimes they get fired or in trouble, these people have the courage to stand up for their rights as a worker. However, it doesn’t always lead to what they want. If you have ever taken a stand in your life, you’d know, sometimes arguing is not the answer.
I am so grateful for an unexpected day off to be able to get my life in order. When the week begins, I'm in absolute "go" mode. I must admit I don't like the feeling. There's a sense of anxiety that comes along with it and I can totally do without it. Today, I've become increasingly aware of how dangerous it is to be mentally somewhere else. There's a beauty and an ease that comes with staying in the moment and focusing on what's on your plate at that moment. I'm a total proponent for goal-setting and love doing that. However, we can't get so focused on where we're going that we don't appreciate and enjoy where we are. With that being said, here are my goals for this week! :)
When you’re younger you don’t really think of the negatives from not doing homework. I know when I was younger, I often found myself pushing everything off till the last minute and as a result my grade would never be as good as my sisters. My sister was the prodigy child and since she was two years older than me, I was always held to her standards. Everything she did I was two steps behind and that ate me alive. That was the one way she knew how to get under my skin and she loved to rub that in my face.
For as long as I can remember, my father used to tell me that I could do anything I set my mind to do, but at the age of seven I realized the challenges of living by this phrase.
Another video to edited I thought to myself, I didn't want to edit or even do videos anymore. I don't know what happen a couple days ago I was really happy and now just became depress. I got up from my chair and started walking to the bathroom to have a shower. After I have a shower and dry up I look in the mirror and stare at myself. I saw myself as fat, ugly and worthless I wonder why the guys was my friends as I was a waste of space I don't deserve to live. I look down on the razor no not now I been clean for years as say to myself well the sidemen doesn't care if I die neither does my fans and the guys are sleeping so they won't know. I remember when I use to cut myself the blood running down my arm and the pain was gone instantly. I lifted up the razor. Two big cuts across my arm one for the memories of cutting and one for being worthless.
School was over and summer could not have come any quicker. My friends rejoiced at the carefree living they could now enjoy for the next 2 months; no responsibilities, no commitments. But my summer was different; the year was 2012 and I was about to embark on a month long, life-changing experience. Earlier in the year, I committed to sign up for the Adirondack 46er program at YMCA Camp Chingachgook on Lake George. The goal: hike all 46 Adirondack high peaks in one month.
My life has been pretty stressful since last term. I lost one of my best friends over a ridiculous reason, but I’m doing better. We discussed it, while I was trying to get closure, for all the things I went though. Throughout the whole event, I felt like I was cheated of the most important thing at the end of relationship. As of right now, I’m still dealing with the aftermath but I have grown to learn that self-love is important and to be true to myself and not to change for anyone.
