    I got my first major exposure to cars when I was two years old after I received a PlayStation and a copy of the driving simulator, Gran Turismo. At the time, my only objective was to press the gas, and hope that my straight line speed would somehow win me a race. There was no balance in the way I handled the car, and this resulted in me crashing often. Despite this, the game still jump-started my passion for cars. My passion for reading developed as I browsed through countless car books and car magazines

    Is it possible to create the perfect, problem free world? Many people do not believe that a utopian society exists because of the requirements. People believe that we can make our own decisions and we should not get controlled by others. A Utopian world is perfect, problem free, and no one can turn on anyone. In this world, there is no starvation or hungry children asking for food. Everyone gets along with one another and no one creates conflicts with each other. To me it sounds too good to

Theory of the forms, also known as theory of ideas is one of the most popular and arguably most controversial in my mind.

    A utopian world sounds fascinating, but as I saw in the movie, The Giver, a perfect world cannot be achieved. The characters do a good job of showing us what a utopian society would turn us into. As I saw in the movie it seems like everything in the world is perfect, but the more you get into the movie, you start to realize what a total prison the world they live in really is. The book is one of my favorites and I wanted the movie to bring what I pictured in my head to life. In my opinion the movie

    A story has a clear beginning. A place where the narration commences and the plot begins to unravel. It makes sense, to have a clear starting point, but that's not always the case. In the real world, you don't know who the bad guys are until you read ahead until you've trusted them and they've betrayed you. Life is not a storybook, life has no set good guys or bad guys, and the story has no clear beginning. I don't know where to begin, a feeling most "writers" will have. They may simply write this

    “Perfect.” It seems like such an innocent word. As a label, it could even be considered complimentary. But in my opinion, you don’t know perfect until you’ve lived it. Hello, I’m Kaitlyn Zander (but please, call me Kate), captain of the soccer team, president of the math honor society, senior class officer, youth soccer coach, lifeguard, 4.0 GPA, 35 on the ACT, science bowl captain, youth retreat leader…you get the point.
