It was a bone chilling night when my mum received a call at around midnight which changed our lives forever. My cousin was on the other side of the line and she was crying so hard that even my mom could barely hear what she was talking about. Through the sobbing, my mom finally was able to hear that my dad had been involved in a terrible accident and she did not know how bad it was. This news caught my mom by surprise; she jumped out of the bed after hanging the phone and ran downstairs screaming. That ...

“Five minutes,” my Dad reminded, peering into my room. I quickly glanced at the clock on the nightstandit showed 6:25 a.m. Five minutes later grabbing my backpack, school uniform tie, and blue blazer I rushed down the stairs to the waiting car. Four years ago, this remained the five-year morning routine. Back then, along with my two brothers, I attended a private school located three towns over. On a good day, after picking up the two kids carpooling from their homes located the opposite direction from our route, Dad would deliver us in almost fifty minutes at the school. ...

I was born and bred in our Midwest farm whereby I had dreamt for a long time of visiting the ocean until one day, at the summer of 1980, my mother told me that we were to pay my aunt Carolyn who by then resided in Havelock a visit. I was so much ecstatic since I could finally get to feel the sand and the ocean water, something I had dreamt of for long. The journey to Havelock was smooth and we managed to get to our destination safe and sound. ...

Thesis: While my outward appearance and conversational nature is like my dad, I am more like my mom in terms of my personality and characteristic traits. One can never deny the fact that both the parents have a huge role to play in the upbringing of a child. The parents give a lot of time in nurturing their child, and thus go on to have an influence on the young mind. Thus, it is obvious that a child would take after his or her parents in the course of life. In my case too, the involvement of my parents ...

According to Sacks, the subtext that is provided over the epidemic of childlessness in the lives of most executives is that men are to blame. According to the women, men are to blame because according to them, men refuse to be left at home and be the primary caretaker of the kids. This would mean that, for a woman who wants to concentrate on her career, she would have to shelve her need to have kids and concentrate on her work first because if she had kids she would have to stay at home to take care of them, ...

“I don’t want to go.”

“You’re going.” Dad placed my pink suitcase on my bed, while I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes. The suitcase was an embarrassing thing I still used when I traveled, something for a much younger girl. Bad enough, but this vacation was the worst idea I’d ever heard of.

“I can stay home by myself for a week. I’m fourteen years old. I can look after myself.”

Mom came in the room and glanced at Dad. “I don’t understand why you don’t want to go, Emily. You were always fascinated with Egypt, the pyramids, and the tombs when you were in elementary school.”

“Just watch the news!” I was getting really frustrated. ...

Today’s shifting social norms and demographics call for nontraditional enactment of gender and alternative family norms in order to survive. One of the debate issues in society today is work-life balance that is mostly driven by stay-at-home dads. There are various factors that drive stay-at-home dad’s families in society; these factors include human capital, dynamic nature of gendered expectations, as well as economic condition. There are several real-world examples that elaborate the extent of dads staying at home while mother go to work. In fact, stay home dads have various impacts to lifestyle of the family compared ...

The Christmas parade is a big event in our town, a time of celebration of the season. December of 2005 felt extra special because as sixth graders, my twin sister Elizabeth and I were participating in the parade: I rode on a float with my baseball team, while Elizabeth rode on a float with her cheerleading team. With the festive crepe-paper colors in red, white, green on the floats, I felt like something special was about to happen as confetti drifted through the air all around us like magical snow.

It all started when I was just 13. I began to notice that my academic grades had been falling. Then, when I was 14 years old, some serious digestive problems occurred. Finally, at age 15, I was diagnosed with “clinical depression”. In the three (3) years of my topsy-turvy life, I am glad that I am now able to tell how this story unfolded in my life. Normally, when one studies for or faces a public exam, one experiences the feelings of stress and anxiety. However, my case, as I have come to realize it, ...

Personal Family History Project Part II: Family History Paper

Introduction Drug and substance abuse to me in not just a story I hear from third parties. I have personally had an experience. It is unfortunate that most of the campaigners against drug and substance abuse are activists and not necessarily people who have had a firsthand experience on the same. Most of the stories that are narrated by victims of substance abuse cannot match the real experiences that they have gone through. It is in fact a great miracle for a person who has gone through the ordeal and survived to tell the story. Drug addiction is like ...

What is most surprising about Malcolm Gladwell’s book “Outliers” is that it overturns what at least for me was the traditional narrative of how success operates. The Amercian Dream story of success has to do with hard word. Others consider it luck. Others see intelligence and natural inborn ability as necessary for success. Gladwell essentially is saying that it is all three of these things. It takes the hard work of putting in the necessary time to become a “master” of a craft, but also luck, such as with hockey players, of when someone is born plays a ...

No little girl at just four years old wants to be away from her parents. I would have to be away from mine for five days of every week. I couldn’t believe this was happening to me after spending all my life so far at home with my parents. Although I thought that the change was too big for me, because I felt that I still needed the comfort of being with my mom and dad, I knew that this school would help me be independent, learn to read and write and walk unaided, and to relate with ...

I will remember that moment always. I had just come home from a really enjoyable sports practice session, feeling good about life in general and looking forward to the rest of the weekend. I knew something was wrong when my Mom said we needed to talk, just by the expression on her face. She was all red around her eyes; I could see she’d been crying. My heart sank, and my buoyant mood was shattered. Then she told me that her and my Dad had decided to separate and would probably divorce. I realized in that moment that ...

He was pale, sweating, and in tremendous pain. My dad was lying on his bed crying out my name and holding his chest. My heart was pounding, my thoughts were racing, and my knees were shaking as I ran into his room. I was 18 and terrified as I stood in front of my dad who I had no idea how to help.

Every family has their own tradition. The tradition of my family had long been going to the hunting camp.

In current times, it is almost impossible for people to live without using some form of machine or technology. Over the years, engineers have worked relentlessly to ensure that the performance of daily tasks becomes easy. Engineering has, therefore, played a crucial role in ensuring that people have an easier life than those who lived a few decades ago. Personally, I can confess that engineering has played a very crucial role in my life.

Abstract

In “The Death of the Author,” structuralist thinker Roland Barthes suggested the notion of the author as a distinct identity in the creation and interpretation of a text was a thing of the past. Instead, he preferred the use of the word “scriptor” to refer to the person writing or typing a work for the first time. The ideas in the scriptor's mind would have to travel through his or her semiotic filters to make it to the paper – those filters take the ideas and shape them – for example, the inspiration ...

His nimble little fingers were sliding down the handrail, while his feet were almost flying. Jimmy would always wake up earlier than necessary, because that was the rare time he would get to see his father, a relentless stockbroker who worked night and day to be able to provide for his family all the things he did not have as a child.

For in every adult there dwells the child that was, and in every child there lies the adult that will be. Childish memories remain vivid, no matter are they good or bad. A child cannot choose his parents and accepts anything that happens to him in the early years. After becoming a grown-up he can look at his luggage of hurts, attitudes, and false assumptions and decide, as a mature personality, which of them he really wants to discard in order to obtain internal harmony. However, there are memories that you want to carry through your whole life and ...

Among the saleable list of material items romance has been included both as a commodity and as an exchange means for other commodities. Taking advantage of the feebleness of humans’ inability to control their appetite and conspicuous growth in that weakness, the media has assisted immensely in fueling the concept of love as an idea, a mere delight for entertainment or a clown for the circus. The needs of just one man are unlimited and as he evolves, as years pass by, there is an expansion in the list of things to buy. Off which most are irrelevant to ...

Last week I decided to take a walk at night in my locality.

I stood still as my mind went back to a day in 1999 when my ...

In the course of my life, I have come to define literacy differently. Initially, I believed that literacy was all about reading i.e. a person’s ability to read. Though this is an essential part of person’s literacy, the long journey in life has made me to realize that literacy is a dynamic expedition involving understanding words and internalizing them in order to have some meaning. Literacy also encompasses the ability of people to express their feelings and opinions through writing. However, this cannot be mastered at early stages of learning. I can confidently say that though am ...

Baldwin’s Go Tell it on the Mountain, and Morrison’s Home are two Interesting to read literatures. Each book brings its own uniqueness to the table. Indeed, in both books, there is a brilliant course in regards to exploring their examinations of race, family, and religion. It is obvious that Baldwin is clearly the frankest of the two (however not essentially the most prevailing for that). However, America’s most celebrated novelist, Nobel Prize-winner Toni Morrison lengthens her philosophical point of view on our history with his story of redemption. Baldwin's first main masterpiece, a story that has ...
