I think that our theme for the yearbook should be a western theme for several different reasons. One reason is because it would be very easy to incorporate in the yearbook. As it was presented we could use old western theme fonts or even pictures. It is also a very unique theme. I as well searched it up and there was only about one or two that looked similar to this theme. I as well do like the idea for using an wanted poster and then the students picture in it. It is very easy to work with and put many things related to this theme. As Nicholas said has hardly any copyright issues so I think the class will have a fun but easy time making the yearbook this year. If we use this theme it will be different, fun, and unique to make and I think.
All I want, and all I have ever wanted, is for people to view me as a leader. Someone you can come to for advice when needed, or one of my best qualities, to make people laugh when they are feeling down on themselves. In September of this year, 2017, I was chosen as one of the candidates for Homecoming King. In October, I was chosen to be the Homecoming King. I could not have been more honored to be a representation of my school. A teacher had seen me working as a student helper in the main office, and just had to tell me, “Kurt, congratulations,” I replied with a gracious thank you. She then went further to tell me, “ It is so nice when good things happen to good people,” replying again with a compassionate thank you. Then, it had become apparent
At the beginning of my senior year, I committed myself to additional volunteer works. These volunteer activities require leadership skills that I have learned previously. Some of these activities include:
I think the theme for the yearbook should be a western theme for several different reasons. One reason is that there are many ways to incorporate this theme in our yearbook. There could be old time western looking fonts, or rusted pictures, or even and brown old backgrounds to give it the old time feeling. For the cover we could do something like putting one of the western buildings on the cover, such as a bar or store or even a church. We could also maybe include a horse and a cowboy hat because that is what the cowboys wore back then. This theme is also very unique. I looked up, on google, western theme yearbooks and only found one or two that even looked close enough to be considered a western theme yearbook. This is a very easy theme to
There are many great theme options for the yearbook. However, the most unique theme for the yearbook would be the Jungle theme, by Kaylie Reitan and Devyn Leiterman. If we chose the Jungle theme, the yearbook would be fresh, bright and colorful, and easy to incorporate.
The Evergreen Marching Band and Colorguard (EMBC) has stewed in accomplishment, success, and hard work, for more than two decades. People don’t know, that we 're not just a normal halftime marching band--we are a competitive marching band. Like any football, drill, or soccer team, EMBC strives to compete amongst the greats. For a couple decades, EMBC has marched to success and we don 't want to stop now; however, the competitive program was close to being slashed this year, due to lack of funds. Students and parents raged at the thought of no competitive season. Competing is the best part for everyone in this program. If we lost that it wouldn’t be as much fun. We were so far in debt that if we couldn 't raise enough money, it would 've been game over.
We welcome you to join us in taking part in reading the Common Book, and participating in our schedule of events this semester in order to contemplate the influences of America's culture on many of her southern brothers and sisters, and the rich heritage that they lie weave into the American
Big 10 Culture has a Big Impact A civil society is held together not only by common values, but also by institutions that bring various elements of a community together. College athletics offers a good example of sport’s unifying function. As university enrollments have increased and diversified, athletic teams have promoted institutional unity and school spirit. The entire university family, from faculty, students, and local fans, to alumni living in faraway places, can usually rally around the university’s athletic teams.
Oklahoma! the musical, released in 1943, proved to be one of the most successful musicals of its time, holding nearly 2,212 performances before closing fifteen years after its opening. Despite its folk culture and overall simplicity, the classic love-triangle story between Curly McLain, Laurey Williams, and Jud Fry proved to be just what America wanted and needed. An analysis of the historical time period during which Oklahoma! the musical was created reveals a direct link between the show’s music and American culture.

Coming to America is a fictional film about a prince seeking for true love while Rain in Dry Land is a documentary portrays the refugees’ lives in the America. Therefore, those two movies have fundamentally different topics and themes.

Throughout the novel “Homecoming,” the effects of the slave trade on the characters are explored. For example, Quey, the son of Effia, feels the pressure of carrying on his father’s slave industry in the midst of struggling with his identities. According to Quey, “he was one of the half-caste children of the Castle, and, like the other half-caste children, he could not fully claim either half of himself, neither his father’s whiteness nor his mother’s blackness. Neither England nor the Gold coast” (Gyasi 55). Quey makes it clear that he struggles to find his place in the world because he could never put an identity on himself. When asked to accept a position in his mother’s village, Quey was not enthusiastic about it because he had
When I was eleven my mother shipped me off to a three week educational camp called VAMPY. Little did I know that she was sending me to the place that at the end of those three weeks I would be begging for the next year to be able to go back.
With American so deep into the Cold War, it was unable to assess and recognize the problem that it had itself. Americans reacted to their problems by ignoring them and trying to compete socially with others countries. Following the end of the Second World War, American was the only country left, scattered from the horrors of the war. As Americans paraded throughout the streets, other countries were left cleaning up rubble. This sense of being virtually untouched gave Americans a great sense of pride- pride with which, along with other European countries, the American military was able to crush the Axis powers. However, America was heavily involved in the Cold War. The main idea of the Cold War involved two
There are various aspects that make up a culture in today’s world, ranging from necessities needed for survival, social groups, and the unique traditions they value within the specific culture. That’s why we all are able to conclude that culture is the fluid set of traditions, customs, beliefs, values, and practices developed over time by a specific group or community.
