One of my biggest role models that I try to imitate is the crazy and funny, Mike Iaconelli. Mike Iaconelli known as “ike” is a big hit in professional fishing that sticks out more than any other fisherman there is out there. He’s a one hilarious man on and off TV. He is that type of person that actually loves what he does and tries his best at every tournament, even when he does his simple practices for the tournament that coming up. Ike is one of the main factors that draw in angler to try to become

What Happened to the Rats! Remember back in 1967, when Lyndon B. Johnson was President? Remember Camilo Junior High and Ms. Baker? Of course you remember Ms. Baker’s precious rats, Sycorax and Caliban. It was back in 1967 at Camilo Junior High when Sycorax and Caliban disappeared. Poor Holling was cleaning out the rats’ cage when they escaped. Sycorax and Caliban were as fast as lightening as they ran off. The school year was ending and the rats have not been found. Well fast forward to

Stressed? I understand how it feels. There’s always too much to do, yet another deadline, are too many people demanding your attention, and of course, money is always a little tight. These are all examples of things that cause stress that everyone goes through every single day. They all effect people in different ways. Some people react a lot more extremely than others and some people are able to shrug it off a little easier. Most people find different activities to help deal with their stress levels

The dream of being a nurse is not an easy path to take and requires dedication and sacrifice. In fact, leaving the children with their babysitter and having less time to spend with them is amongst of the greatest challenges for a parent. First, the dedication of continuing the dream of being a nurse will too require giving up a lot of time that will affect everyone in my life and especially my son. Like for instance, with the amount of assignments and self study online can take up a lot of time that

Looking back, I can still recall the countless days that I spent in my family's restaurant. For twelve hours every single day of the week, I spent the majority of my time alone at a corner table. My mom was always occupied with leading the stream of faces, pouring through the doors, to their tables and attending to their needs. On the other hand, my dad would be busy operating the large woks, rounded cooking pans, over scorching red flames in order to keep the food trays in front of the kitchen doors

The text, There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury tells the story of a robotically controlled house left standing in a post-apocalyptic world. Every day, life continues as normal for the house until it meets the same fate of “death” as it catches on fire and burns to the ground, leaving only one voice behind. This story made me think about how, even though you may not be there, time still passes on and does not stop for anybody. Throughout the text, it continues to refer to the time of day it

When I first met DJ at bowling, I thought that she was the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. I had seen her in a picture before I and thought she was really pretty, but seeing her in person was completely different. I tried not to pay much attention to it since I had a girlfriend, but it was something about the way she carried herself and how she was never without a smile that intrigued me. Not only that, but I didn’t think that a Sophomore would want to date a Freshman, especially considering

I would like to start to be kinder to others, find more time to focus on myself and who I am, and finally, I want to be more positive and stop complaining. Throughout life, I was raised to do well in school and that 's my main focus. I was pushed to get good grades and to forget the rest. Now that my high school career is coming to an end I have more time for some self change. I want to spend less time focusing on what others want and what I want. I 'm told many times I could be nicer to others and

First of all, community service elicits compassion and understanding otherwise difficult to view in everyday life. When volunteering to help organizations, causes, or people one 's time is not being used for just a singular outcome but several diverse establishments. Not only do efforts aid in promoting positive impacts in one 's society but also in one 's own character. I frequently chose to volunteer at the Lisbon Lepper Library, a public library where copious amounts of people choose to spend

As I think about this project and try to brainstorm some ideas as to what i would like to promote, I get very excited and surprisingly cant wait to get started on this project as it will be on something of my choice, something I absolutely love and something that can be extremely fun. My first and favorite choice is going to have to be CrossFit. Crossfit is a very competitive sport that involves lifting weights and a cardio/ lifting workout afterwards. I have been doing CrossFit for over 6 years
