    Animals have always been a part of my life. They have given me comfort and taught me lessons throughout my life. It is because of these animals that I wish to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. Riki- she was the cat that was a part of my family since before I was even born. She constantly had an unsure look in those yellow eyes; black fur slightly raised, slowly putting one white-tipped paw in front of the other. Riki taught me one of my first lessons about animals, and the world, at a very

    I don’t know how to start this. I guess I’ll start here. I love fandoms. I do. I love celebrity anything. I don’t indulge in it often, because for me it can become all consuming, and let’s face it, we all have lives. Fandoms have been going on as long as there have been things to “fan” over. This is not new. You have invented nothing. There is just a new way to do it. I’ve never experienced fandom like I have online. It is an amazing, quirky, pit of infamy. The things I see roll past

    others is one that is highly debated. Charity has existed since man first walked the earth. Every philosopher has their own opinions on charity and Thoreau is no different. Within Walden, Thoreau speaks directly about charitable work. He starts out by saying that many of those around him have tried to persuade him to take on charitable duties. Thoreau admits that he would try his hand at philanthropy if he had nothing better to do.(Thoreau, p168) However, charity work is not a profession that he would

    Your book has significantly changed my view of the kindness in our society. Kindness is like love, it blooms in some and lingers in others.

No couple or relationship is perfect, but in an ideal world, there would be rainbows and butterflies. Sometimes, one will let their inner demons get the best of them and disguise it from the other.
