One thing I learned in life is that you should try before doing something stupid or wrong. For me apparently it is using razor-sharp objects. I have many scars from times when I was using something sharp. Therefore, the worst part about this is that I am accident-prone so using razor-sharp objects is not really something I should be doing. I really should not use any razor-sharp objects even after life. I accomplished not using sharp related objects and will now know not to use them in the future. First, one was when I was 12 or 13, it was about eight in the morning and I got up to get a brownie because you know brownies are the right thing to eat for breakfast. Well, I was empty and I was not in the mood to get something that was not sharp.
One day there was an open field, but not just any open field. This field was guarded by a goddess, Nixious (Nix-e-ous) goddess of disease. In this field laid her treasure, a young rancher and her cottage with sheep. This rancher impressed the goddess, and earned the name Simkaxzi (Sim-kah-z). One day, a mischievous young thief came to the ranch to take the sheep flock. As soon as he started to put a lead on one of the sheep’s neck, the goddess awakened. Nixious as furious as ever, and picked up the thief with her mighty grasp. She called Simkaxzi down from her small cottage. Nixious announced “Here is thy thief. Simkaxzi should you be thy one to decide punishment, what would it be.” Simkaxzi replied “Let his family be cursed with a disease

When you hear the word “Bacteria” you automatically assume the worst; you would conclude that it means something is contaminated or can be harmful. But in all actuality that is not the case. Bacteria is used in laboratories every single day. It can be used to create medicines and vaccines and can even be found naturally occurring in our food and environment. To change the stigma that comes with bacteria, it had to be studied and researched and one of those methods of research would be the streaking method.
The Mall of America is known as one of Minnesota’s most famous landmarks. Did you know that about half a billion people have visited it since the day it opened? Today I will be telling talking about MOA which happens to be one of my favorite places.
Do we not hate when we have to ask another other person for a writing utensil? “Excuse me, do you have a writing utensil I can borrow?” It is a feeling no one likes, but a question that is always asked. However, the question, ‘what is in the writing utensil that I used today? is not a question that is so frequently asked, but it should be. Sharpie is a perfect example of a ink pen that is composed of many different chemicals. If you are going to consistently use something throughout your life, would you not want to know what was in the item you were using?

I wish I could see “Goofy” again! Goofy was my old best friend about 3 years ago. He and I were like Batman and Super Woman. Goofy was his nickname and we called him goofy simply because of his facial features that resembled those of the cartoon character “Goofy.” His actual name was Robert, but he will always be know as Goofy to me. Goofy was the type of kid who you would look in his eyes and see no type of hope for the future. Goofy and I were raised under the same circumstances but he chose another path to take. Goofy and I were made and molded by the struggle around us but instead of seeing such demising circumstances and choosing to try to make it out, Goofy chose to embrace the struggle as his only path in life. I would always look into
Have you ever experienced a moment where you wake up and literally all of your spoons are bent? I don’t mean one, I mean every single one of your spoons are super bent. Every spoon is bent at a 90 degree angle.
I ATE SUPER GLUE! I have lots of memories, but eating glue would never leave my mind. I was four years old from what my mother has told me. I saw my mom in her purse scooping out for something and she gave me gum earlier, so as a blissful four year old thought I could go in her purse and get some gum. I thought to myself, “Hmm, since mommy is going into the bedroom, I can get me some gum and eat it.” I really shouldn’t have done this but if I asked she would have said no. I know that I could just go get it and be unidentified while doing it.
The idea of semantic illusions is where people tend to not recognize an inaccuracy or inconsistency in a text.. This tendency is now known as the Moses Illusion. Erickson and Mattson (1981) presented subjects with questions such as ‘ How many animals of each kind did Moses take on the ark?’. People answered ‘two’ even when they knew that Noah was the one who took the animals. Even when told that there may be distortions, people still overlooked the names. Erickson and Mattson (1981) suggested that semantic similarity to the right name and certain facts that people know about certain individuals influences the frequency of occurrence of the semantic illusion. This phenomenon has proven to be very consistent over varying circumstances because it occurs with or without time pressure. The Moses illusion has raised many questions in regards to its validity and research methods.
After a death roll inmate finishes his last meal, five officers take him to the scary,slight execution chamber near the inmate’s cell. He is strapped down within fifteen seconds, and he says his last words before he is injected to die. His family and the victim’s family watch him die “instantly” as it should be, yet it has been over six minutes since he was injected. Then, he starts to thrash against the gurney and his heart finally stops. Death penalty is killing hundreds of people due to people’sheinous actions. Today, lethal injection is one of the most popular methods that death penalty is killing people in America. However, death penalty does not deter crime since there are always new inmates. Offenders on death roll should deserve to pay consequences without unusual punishment like the Constitution says. Killing the murderer does not make a difference because the family’s victims will not get their deceased family member back. We all know that there is crime every day, so why kill the inmates when they can pay their consequences in a prison guarded by correctional officers? People who support capital punishment want revenge not justice. Death penalty should be abolished because it is extremely expensive, it is inhumane, and it is killing innocent victims.
You only get out of it what you put into it. If you don't put anything in, nothing will come out. I have heard this quote many times before. It is my own personal philosophy. I believe that working hard pays off. I believe that my hard work will have a good outcome some day and it will not go to waste.
Older students that return to college do better than students that are fresh out of high school.
The reason why I place myself as average lower middle class is family wealth. My father being the provider of the family makes between $35,000 altogether, which is not a lot of money compare to others, income. According to Bureau of Labor Statistics, the working class makes between $25,000 (as cited in Benokraitis, 2017, p.143). Benokraitis defines the working class as, “group consists of skilled and semiskilled laborers and assembly-line workers, trucks drivers, auto mechanics, carpenters, and electricians” (p.144). My father has only finished with a high school diploma he did not graduate with higher degrees such as bachelors, masters, or even a PhD or doctrines. the fact I would consider being the working class is because even though my
