I love swimming and would spend all my summer afternoons in the ocean or a swimming pool nearby. It is not because I found myself doing that because I have this inner drive and passion for it.

Introduction to Psychology

Fall 2014
Years back, while at the age of eight, I went through a tough experience that still lingers in my mind today. These events took place on the beaches along the Pacific coast where I almost drowned. It occurred during my family’s vacation when my parents decided that we should spend time at the coast together. At the beach, the waters seemed calm. Without my parents’ permission or watch, I decided to venture deeper into the continental shelf. Suddenly, a huge wave appeared from nowhere, swept me off balance and its backwash dragged me further into the Continue reading...

This action cools the body and makes it less likely to overheat. Another benefit of swimming is to train the respiratory system. Fangshicun Health states that the movement in swimming “can help in regulating the respiratory system” (Fangshicun Health), which in turn makes it Continue reading...

Psychology

An adolescent is classified as someone within the age ranges of 10 and 19 years old. Most adolescents at this age are still unsure of what they want to do in life and are still trying to decide.

My interview candidate is Ashlin, a 14 year old girl who is by my estimation, not a typical adolescent. My interview with her revealed to me that she is more focused Continue reading...

People always divide youth by the age groups: if you are 5 years old – you are a kid, 14 - teenager, 18 – adult. In my opinion, it is wrong. Some people grow up really fast and can take serious decisions at the age of 12, while the others stay teenagers until they are 40 years old. As many people on the planet, as many cases exist. Everything is very individual. And I am not an exception. I think it takes us long enough to gain the experience in life, but it takes us a moment to grow up. People Continue reading...

The short story, “The Swimmer” is one of Cheever’s well-known works.

A closer analysis of the story suggests that the “pool” and the alcohol form a significant aspect of Neddy’s life and the changes that occur. The reference to Neddy swimming in pools against Continue reading...

Once when I was a child, I spent a week in the hospital, and what impressed me most of all was the helplessness of people who experienced different health problems.

My further studies only increased my curiosity in learning about pathology in the biomedical field. In order to stay up-to-date with the latest developments and technologies in the biomedical sciences, Continue reading...

In the last few decades, children’s involvement in spontaneous activities and play has diminished because of many factors.

The differences between the children’s pastimes today and yesterday are pronounced and deserve thorough and rigorous investigation.
Today children spend most of their free time indoors, watching television, playing video games and surfing internet. They go out for scheduled events only. In the last one decade, there has been Continue reading...

The Awakening, an early twentieth-century novel by Kate Chopin, is often cited as one of the first feminist pieces of literature written for a modern audience. The novel follows a woman named Edna through her everyday activities, as she goes through a transformation that can only be described as an “awakening.” Chopin’s work is heavily concerned with the difference between masculinity and femininity in Victorian-era society. Throughout the work, her protagonist’s continual self-awareness is tempered by her increasing isolation from everyone in her life; thus, Chopin suggests that society, as it existed, does not allow femininity to Continue reading...

We have left the gramophones behind and are using micro-sized music players. No one uses horse-carts, everyone flies. We are no longer interested in ceremonies and rituals that our forefathers followed. All in all, we have evolved with time and left certain obsolete practices and retained some Continue reading...

- Introduction
Solar cells function by converting solar light energy into electricity. It functions on the basis of the photovoltaic effect. “Photo” stands for light and “voltaic” means electricity (light–electricity). A solar cell is capable of providing DC current. This DC current can be used to light bulbs and power DC motors. Rechargeable batteries also use this DC current, which can be utilized later on when the sun is not available. Also, these batteries, when fully charged, are portable and can be used wherever and whenever you want them (De Vos, 1980).
