The three portfolios I reviewed were different in the way each person wrote their life stories and their different skills and aspirations. Reading through the three portfolios, there are many different things I liked and I disliked in each of them. J.Johnson portfolio, number 20, wrote her personal/ career portfolio based on her high level of achievements and her dream future job to become a veterinarian. C. Stanley portfolio number 30, wrote his personal/ career portfolio based on his career has

“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all—in which case, you fail by default.” Those words were spoken by J.K Rowling. That’s the thing. We often have this idea in our heads about being perfect all the time, and without making any mistakes. But the world doesn’t work that way. No one grows without making mistakes here and there. The way we can grow, is by learning from our mistakes. Growing is what we need to

Adventure. A three syllable, nine letter word; greek origin and has the definition that quotes “An unusual and exciting, typically hazardous, experience or activity”. Adventures are the exploration of something new and they usually hold valuable life lessons. They teach you something important so you can learn from the experience. Young or old, naive or wise, idiotic or intelligent, anything can happen to you at any given time in life. You can experience almost anything. In life we make many decisions

When you sit down to write an I Believe Essay, the first questions you have to ask yourself is, “What do I believe in?” It’s one of the hardest questions to answer. I for instance believe in patience, the power of seeing the big picture, and people’s power to help you become a better person. After you have figured out what you believe in, you then have to pick one of these beliefs to write about. My problem is that I couldn’t write about just one of these things. I wanted to write about all of them

At the end of every night of church camp, there is a campfire. Your sit around it with all of your friends as you become mesmerized by looking out in the night sky at millions of stars, and listening to the crackling of the fire. You become content as time stops. For that short hour every night the world is telling you that everything will be ok, just breathe. Then you realize what is right in front of you. I have gone to camp for nine years now and this past year on July 1st, 2015 the campfire changed

When i sit back and think, i realize that there are many things that form our daily lives. Social media, television, music and games help build society’s knowledge about the unknown. Im sure without these things that it wouldn’t be the same.For example, how did you found out about those shoes you were wearing or that phone you really wanted? you may have saw someone with it, but how did they find out about it. Most people would say a commercial on television or the internet.Quite frankly we

The time and setting tell a lot about what a story and its underlying meaning can represent to each character individually and together. In the short play “Trifles” by Susan Glaspell, readers and viewers are taken back to a period that is a lot different than the current. From the surroundings, viewpoints of each sex and their assigned roles in the society all gave a greater understanding of what was portrayed and how it was essentially handled. Trifles started with the Sheriff and his wife Mrs.

For many individuals, life may seem boring and pointless throughout most of their day. They might feel empty at times and question themselves who they really are. Although most of their time is spent doing tasks in their everyday lives, there are those interests in which they look forward to doing. These interests may range depending on the person. It may be watching television for some, playing games for others, or simply spending time with your loved ones in which you enjoy and make you feel like

When I was young, I struggled with honesty and openness in communication which made my life more difficult. My parents could not trust me, and I would lie without even thinking about it. I was not the best child in the world, and I did not always choose to look at the good side of things. That was before, before the divorce. One evening my brother Matthew and I were playing in our bedroom when my mom walked in the room and said to us, “Get a few toys, and I will get your clothes. Your dad and I are
