This portion of the book was one of the more humorous parts, because she discusses different experiences seen while working at SNL. She worked with some of her closest peers: Amy Poehler, Seth Meyers, and Jimmy Fallon. One of her

With the rise of the disabilities rights movement in American culture, controversy when disability has been used in the context of humor has become more common. Many television shows are. In 2010, this animated show included a character with Down Syndrome in an episode. Former Vice President candidate Sarah Palin responded to the episode saying, “When is enough, enough? And when are we willing to say, you know, some things just aren’t really funny” (Hubbard, 2010). Palin assumed the character, Ellen

"You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you." - John Bunyan. Last summer, I had the pleasure of doing just that. Baton Rogue in Louisiana was city devastated by flooding but united by service. Our church wished to help, and as luck would have it the St. Bernard Project organization would sponsor a volunteer group down to Baton Rogue to help rebuild houses.

If you are not familiar with testimony, it can be briefly described as a story about one’s faith and how that faith has helped one through a difficult life event. Having first-hand experience with a couple difficult predicaments that I can best describe as being on a rollercoaster.

Playing softball since I was in the first grade has taught me many life lessons over the years. At the first practice I went to, we learned the basics and mechanics of softball, like throwing, fielding, and hitting. My favorite is hitting, and still is today. As I grew up, I learned many new drills. Learning new drills made me realize that players had to start from the bottom and work my way up the ladder to get better. As I became a better player and started playing competitive softball, it was

Reflecting on my past few years in the food industry, I have realized I have been hired on as an employee for various companies including well-known large companies and smaller “mom and pop” facilities. Even though it is typically expected that each job differs from the last, one usually believes two jobs in the same field, such as cashiering in a fast-paced restaurant will have the same basis of rules.
