Oxford Street

Interviews at Oxford are somehow misrepresented as something to be afraid about, full of big mathematical problems and trick questions, however, the only thing students need to worry about is to make sure to bring their personality to the interview. Dr. Helen Swift from the University of Oxford offered some advice: "We are genuinely interested in people 's honest views about what they have read. The questions are going to be challenging... but we are not expecting people to get everything right"

Blog: Happiness was not what I thought it was         As humans, we often look for happiness in the wrong places or for the wrong reasons. We even sometimes expect happiness by doing something that makes others happy but unfortunately, that does not work for everyone. A lot of the times we are followers when we should be leaders; we may see something that seems sensational for others and try it instead of searching for happiness ourselves. In other circumstances, we do certain things to keep others

Naturalistic observation involves making observations of everyday events and recording those observations in an objective manner (Stangor, 2016, p.39). Participants of a naturalistic observation are observed in natural surroundings. The goal of naturalistic observation is to create a “snapshot” of the current state of affairs. One advantage to naturalistic observation is that it provides a way to collect data about the topic of interest (Stangor, 2016, p.40). Naturalistic observation is said to have

Stephen Hawking was born on January 8th, 1942, in Oxford, England. It is said that in his early years he had a passion for the sky and the sciences. In his academic life he was not an exceptional student. Stephen Hawking desired to study mathematics, but Oxford did not offer a degree in that field. He decided to study physics, but more specifically, cosmology. Hawking did not put much time into his studies. In 1962 Hawking graduated with honors in natural science and went to attend Trinity Hall at

University of Cambridge has a long past. The university established in 1209. University established by Oxford University scholars. But it this writing I will specifically talk about 2 colleges. St. John’s College and Churchill College. “St John's was founded in 1511. Its foundation charter, dated 9 April that year, was sealed by the executors of the foundress, Lady Margaret Beaufort mother of King Henry VII, who had died in 1509 . She had begun the process of transforming the ancient hospital of

Gilbert Newton Lewis was a prominent American physical chemist. He was born on October 23, 1875, in Weymouth, Massachusetts. His father was Frank Wesley Lewis and his mother was Mary Burr White Lewis. In 1884 his family moved from Weymouth to Lincoln, Nebraska. There he spent most of his childhood and was homeschooled by his parents through the English tutoring system until the age of 14, which was when he began attending the University of Nebraska in Lincoln (LeMaster & McGann, n.d.). During his

Every cycle for English, we have to write two different reflections relating to the topics we discuss in class. The reflections have to be on two different days, but they can be on any two days we want. I think the reason behind having us write the reflections about two different days makes us reflect on the cycle as a whole, rather than a singular, individual day. Also, having us write reflections about two different days could prevent procrastination, and therefore produces better work. I think

Street railways were created and they were the most aggressive expansion in the 19th century. From the 1880’s to the 1890’s street railways took up at least six miles from City Hall in Boston. The service of the first railway began in 1852. The first street railway in Boston would go between Harvard Square, Cambridge, Summerville, and Union Square. The increase in the street railway brought excitement for the entrepreneur’s as well in other cities in America. Eventually the street railways

Close by the giant textile mill row on row on row of drab terrace houses huddle together as if to fend off the bitter cold of a winter night in December of 1811. Night obscures the narrow streets of the industrial village of Holmeside as morning’s hesitant light pokes through the canopy of dismal clouds. Inside the mill, workers have been toiling for hours. They rose from their beds early and put on their work clothing. The lucky ones ate a crust of bread and drank the remains of yesterday’s milk

other with metalic blue eyes. The people looked to be teenagers like me. The kid with metalic blue eyes took 1 glance at me, then at the girl next to her and took off. She jumped through the small window in the corner and disappeared through the busy streets. The other girl, with golden hair, chased
