Introduction

We hear sounds, see colors and even feel textures. Every aspect of the world is always perceived using a particular sense. Other aspects such as shape are definitely perceived using more than one sense. The question is, what part of or sense or senses do we use to perceive time. It is obvious that we can see time passing, neither can we touch it or smell it. What is obvious is that time, just like shape is perceived by more than just one sense. Even if, for a moment we can stop all our senses, we can always notice ...

The reason I have chosen such a weird title for this essay is my personal experience with pastimes. Some of it was good, some of it was bad. Yet, all of it was and is extremely precious, as any experience teaches us something. Any person enjoys having free time, no matter how old they are. Children have time off studies, while adults have time off work. There can be various ways to spend free time and they depend on a person’s interests (or the lack of them). Personally, I think that there are two major categories of pastimes – ...

Summarizing Brian’s position I would like to point out his main statement that Internet causes a big damage for social life of young generation. In my opinion it is not so straightforward. In general I think the question he raises is not groundless but I think that a Internet is very important these days. We have to remember that Internet facilitates connections between people who live in different places and do not have a chance to meet often. Brian claims that spending time with friends in person is rather a rare phenomenon nowadays because social networks swallowed up the communication between young ...

Is the Business of business simply to generate profits, or is it to fulfil other societal objectives?

The term business or corporate social responsibility has a deep meaning including business ethics, business citizenship, commercial liability, and sustainability. As clearly commented by Carroll, CSR has surely become a “front – burner” in the business community (P. 27l).

Rather it is the achievement of success by the company by way of legal, ethical, commercial and other related expectations of the society. Thus, the company or the business has to make appropriate decisions that balance the ...

Introduction

Part of the growing diversity in organizations is the difference in the employees’ ages, which translates to differences in work preferences and attitudes, in turn leading to some conflict. However, organizations realize that there’s really more benefit than harm to having a workforce that’s composed of employees from various generations and so they strive to find ways to effectively manage each group.

With Generation Y being the youngest and the most recent to join the workforce, organizations must try to find ways to make the workplace more conducive for this generation as they will likely be the ones ...

It is widely accepted that the men and women accepted into American’s military are upstanding citizens. They are the best and the brightest the country has to offer.

Hair must be cut evenly and in a timely manner. Men growing facial hair may only grow mustaches that do not exceed the width of their lips; no beards, long hair, or shaggy sideburns are tolerated. If a woman wears her hear ...

Some say that success is a final goal, I personally disagree with it. Ben Sweetland said “success is a journey, not a destination” and he’s right, it’s a motion. Sometimes you don’t get what you expected but not the achievement of your goal is the aim, but your effort, your desire towards your expectations . You can’t imagine success without ups and downs and Winston Churchill once said “ success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm”. A successful person is the one who has strong will, who works hard, who believes in himself. The latest is one ...

Lifestyle of children is one of the most important environmental factors that determine some of the traits that they will develop later in their lives.

Modern world brings much convenience into our daily life, but at the same time it is full of various temptations.

Paul Roberts’ use of the college experience is different as compared to Eggers' use of the college experience.

Rather, in his essay he makes up a fictional situation where students are required to write a 500-word essay over the weekend. Eggers uses examples drawn from his own personal experience while at college. He discusses how he was able to utilize his free time volunteering. Another difference in the use of the college experience is how easy college students can relate to ...

Good health, although frequently emphasised upon, is not given as much importance as it should be. We have been hearing the phrase “health is wealth” since school days. Somewhere along the way we forget about this and start to attract negative health behaviours. These negative health behaviours can lead to various illnesses, diseases and can sometimes even be fatal. These behaviours need to be reflected upon and revised for our own good. Activities that we take up become habit in time and these then become a part of our behaviour itself. Positive habits like exercising and following a healthy diet should ...

Making the move from high school to college is never an easy task; there are all manner of social, educational and mental obstacles you must overcome in order to truly be able to deal with all of the changes you experience.

They were busy with other classes and handling other students, thus making it difficult for them to have free time in between their schedules. Some of the teacher’s had only free time during the breaks where they just needed to rest and prepare for the next lessons, ...

Leisure is perceived as a state of mind in the classical view because it is highly valued. It must involve a state of being that is positive for it to be considered leisure (Leitner & Leitner, 2012). This means that free time and leisure are not synonymous if the definition of leisure as a state of mind is used. For example, reads a boring book during their free time, it is not considered as leisure. According to Biswas (2008), leisure is a state of mind because it must be considered pleasurable. Leisure is motivated intrinsically (Leitner & Leitner, 2012). This means that it is valuable because ...

The very first video games can be traced backed to the 1950s, but these were simple simulations that did not have the ...

The employee bringing a lawsuit in constructive discharge against his or her employer must successfully establish their case on the balance of probabilities . He or ...

Technology is embedded in our lives as if it is born along with us. I can forget food and water while using cellphones, computers, or while watching television, but I don’t forget to see if I received any new messages, videos or emails.

I also feel that our mind is constantly running and getting stressed out because of the abundant information that is fed into it on a daily basis. So, I decided to ...

In today's television age, where a television can be found in nearly every household, the influence of media on popular culture and children is substantial. As a result, it can be more difficult for parents to regulate what their children see on television, and what they pick up from what they see as well.

Between the age of six and 13 year, nothing was so intriguing and engaging to me more than computer games. While my friends were busy playing outdoor games, I use to stay in my room playing computer games. Smidge seven years old, my parents began to notice an unusual increase in my weight. Admittedly, most of the games were so engrossing, and I would pause quite often to eat cookies and snacks that normally I stashed in my room as I was probably preparing to start a different level of a game or just resting.

Finding a good friend nowadays is not an easy task to accomplish. Some people say that in order to get on well with somebody you need to have many interests in common and some similar goals in life.

I strongly believe that everything in the world should be based on some kind of harmony – real friends should keep the balance between things they both like and are interested in and things they are different ...
