Dodgeball

I thought it was a costume party. But, it wasn’t, it was the big end of the year party. It was the last day of school, and the teachers were throwing a huge party at the middle school to celebrate. Everyone was there, Bob, Joe, Jeff, even Jimmy was there. Not many people talk to Jimmy because some say he went mentally insane. Joe and Bob are my best friends. I’ve known them since kindergarten. Anyway, when I got the invitation in the mail I thought it was a costume party. But, when I got there, I

Self-Reflection Personally, I love being involved in service learning projects, and when I learned we were working with kids, I was very excited. A lot can come out of a two and half hour project, both rewarding and something to grow on. Unfortunately, I could not be in attendance for the duration of the event due to a conflicting work schedule. This was the biggest conflict I saw for myself. I had to choose whether to go into work, or to stay and fully participate in our activities. Another

we found Mrs. Watson. I remember her being so enthusiastic about sports and how we would play them. Since most of the time she favored the seniors we always had to play Dodgeball. By the end of the year I hated the sport so much I wanted to drop out of the class and never take it again, it seemed all we ever did was play Dodgeball because the seniors liked it so much. Academic wise my freshman year was terrible, I went from having a 3.9 GPA in middle school to a 2.8 GPA. I

Whenever Allen, the bully, would see Sam he would tell him that he was dead, this would be shown when they played dodgeball in the gym and Allen and all of his buddies were on one team and all the others on another. Allen’s team had all of the balls so the “geeks” were sitting ducks, they were slowly picked off one by one until only Sam was left standing. He was then pelted by all of the dodgeballs. These demonstrate a constant struggle for power as well as the power that Allen holds over the “geeks”, this

Then it was on to dodgeball! In dodgeball James and Alex were doing really good so James decided to start doing a 360 or put it in between his legs in mid air and throw it and he was actually hitting people and then James hit the last 3 people in a row with a 360. In the next game

"I am a Theta. I am for the child." As an undergraduate, pledging Theta at Phi chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta has provided me with many opportunities to contribute to my community, especially through our philanthropy work for Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA). For 25 years, Kappa Alpha Theta and CASA have shared a common belief that every abused or neglected child should be loved, have a safe home, and have the opportunities to succeed. A CASA provides a voice for children during the juvenile

Logistical Participation Overview: This semester we have worked to organize and plan the Service Learning project where we brought children from the Community Place of Greater Rochester to allow the kids to experience what college is like. I directly worked in the sports group. During this planning for the project, I participated mostly during the in-class discussions and also in when the children came to the campus. During the in class discussion, I mostly tried to listen to what everyone had

My Elementary Experience “I’m glad we had the times together, to laugh and sing a song, seems like we just got started and then before you know it, the times we had together are gone.” - Dr. Seuss. This quote has a specific meaning to me because my elementary school isn’t just down the road, it’s 4 hours away. In my first year of school (I didn’t go to preschool) my teacher was Mrs. Luedtke. She let me play beauty shop with her and do her hair in high pigtails and mermaid braids. My best friends

First, I plan to attend Auburn for four years under a pre-med major. I plan on taking difficult classes that will further my knowledge in medicine. Then, I plan on going to medical school and becoming a doctor. To do this, I will have to work hard and concentrate on my school work. I was unsure which field I want specialize in (Anesthesiology, Pediatrics, Pharmacist), but hopefully throughout the course of my education, I will narrow it down.              I am currently enrolled in a medical program
