Imagine being just 6 years years old and having your mom tell you there is a woman who has cursed you to death, hates you, and won’t die till you do. Aurora had to live with all that and she had to live in hiding with 2 whackjob fairies taking care of her. That was all because her parents didn’t invite someone to her birth celebration. In the film Sleeping Beauty a beautiful, elegant, and kind young maiden is born. Maleficent who the lunatic of the story does not get invited to the celebration of

This is my real life story of bias at UC Davis... Today I had an appointment with my upper division writing professor, Dr. Emily Foss. I met with her to review my coursework, and to address some concerns. The first part of the 20 minute meeting went fairly well. She had not taken the time to collect collect some early writing steps from us, not were we required to upload these steps online. There was also ambiguity about the due date of our last paper. All of those things were ironed out in fairly

When I asked questions, he, as always, answered with much confidence. I soon came to realize that this trait was caused by his college days where he obtained self-reliance. To understand his

Blue and red lights flashed outside, while I saw my father being handcuffed; my mother and older siblings crying. I was seven at the time, didn't really understand what was happening but later I found out he was deported. My mother tried her best to raise me, “Sepa como pensar,”my mother would always tell me, which in English it means,“know how to think.” I was raised to face reality at a young age and to know that everything that you want in life comes from hard work. Living in a household

Haunting Past I remember driving up to UC Davis on move in day. The parking lot was full of nervous and tired students. However, I was very excited, nervous, shaking, and my heart was beating a million beats per second. This was a big step for me. I was moving away from home for the first time and I was going to be on my own. I remember seeing all the dorms for the first time, they were a deep orange, olive green, and a bright yellow. Before I started to unpack, my family and I took a tour around

years of college to become a veterinarian? Well, the outlook is far too good for this job if one is a passionate about animals. After comparing The University of California, Davis, Texas A&M and the University of Arkansas based on my criteria of the strength of the program, scholarship package and tuition costs, California Davis, would be the best choice in helping me pursue a veterinary career. When it comes to spending more or less than 10 years in college, one might consider not going all the way

The world of fashion is always changing and new trends are always emerging. The ways by which trends and fashion news are communicated to the public has evolved as technology advances. Before television and the internet, it was difficult for designers, photographers, and fashion brands alike to spread word about the latest in fashion to a large mass of people. With the help of modern technology, fashion has made its mark in the world by appearing on television networks, online blogs, social media

decline in foreign investors, it discouraged private sector development, and discredited the governments trustworthiness. This country is based on natural resource extraction and economies like this or much more prone to kleptocracy. When the president Marc Ravalomanana came to in 2002 he pushed for economic reform and tried to bring foreign investors back to the country while also keeping natural resource extraction an important role in building the economy.

The scent of salt water tickles my nose as I enter the small town of Kiros. I smile, it’s good to revisit the town I grew up in. I’ve been living in the … unique servants corridors of the Swinfield Manor. However, weeks ago I left and I hope never to return. My town has a humble population but today the place is mobbed with people. They’ve all come for the festival, but I have come for different reason. To meet the woman with the wings, to kill the woman who ended my father. I’ve been planning her
