...Devonique Lujan November 4, 2012 Intro. To Grammar Is Cheerleading a Sport? Black eyes, busted lips and just plain pain, may you ask from what? You may not believe it, but yes this is from the sport cheerleading. I did not go one day at cheerleading practice without getting hurt. Practice after practice to make sure that we got everything we needed to be done, done. There are many arguments made regarding whether or not cheerleading is a sport. In addition, many people distinguish between a “yell” leader, versus a cheerleader who does stunting versus the competitive all-star cheerleader. You can say that some cheerleading is a sport while other cheerleading is not? That all depends on who you ask, and their definition of sports. Some say cheerleading is not a sport but experience tells me that cheerleading is the most dangerous sport out there. In general, one definition of sports is that they require some type of physical ability or skill that has to be learned and practiced. While no one would argue that cheerleaders practice, it can be argued that cheerleading, when it simply yelling into the crowds, does not require a great deal of skill. Anyone can learn routines and yell into the crowd as long as they smile and do their job. The sport of cheerleading is more than just pompoms and smiles. In my opinion cheerleading is a sport because it requires strength, balance, and coordination. There are many magazines and articles that claim that cheerleading...

...This set of photographs was shot in collaboration with my friend Rachel Wong for her portfolio interview at UAL. It is one of my three initial ideas for the Human Condition project – dystopia. Both the garment and the headpiece are hand made by me using various materials including yarns, pom poms, fabrics and cotton. The hat is based on a simple black cap, which I bought at a vintage market; I then painted it over with a thick layer of white acrylic and decorated it with some pompoms to create the cloud like silhouette. The sleeves of the top is designed to look much longer than a normal sleeve, aimed to cover the hands completely. The long tubes of padded quilting fold together to form the upper part of the traditional Chinese character “無” meaning “nothing” or “no”. The inspiration of this piece of garment comes from the subtheme dystopia, the strict definition of dystopia is : where everything is as bad as it can be. Dystopia can be hugely linked to Human Condition. The clouds symbolize the utopian world outside of prison and the knitwear symbolizes being in prison. The extra long sleeve that cover the hands show that there is no way of getting out of this restricted world. It can also link with the inevitability of death or suicidal because a dystopian environment such as the prison can be too restricted that people would think dying is a form of freedom. The understanding of 'nothing' varies widely between cultures, especially between Western and Eastern cultures and...

...Position Paper “What do we call a Sport?” Each year we see arguments on different teams or news station you hear about a team have a member hurt or a team trying to hurt the other team intentionally. Well for years we have said that cheerleading is not a sport can we actually say that? By looking at all the statistics now a day technically it is a sport. We see this by the performance, physical requirements and dedication that cheerleaders show. Cheerleaders work their best each and every day to put on a performance for the crowd or judges. There are many rules and regulations in the competitions for cheerleaders even in the performances in a football game. From not going to high on a group stunt to not being able to do stunt on the basketball floor. They also have to time things just right because it could lead to disqualification. A wrong move or not enough practice can cause injuries that can put a person in a wheelchair or even death. So everything has to be looked at to assure safety. Like other sports, cheerleaders have to watch their weight and maintain a certain standard as well. So workout have to be keeping up to maintain their weight like football the line has to protect their Quarterback. Well if they choose to not keep up their training and there weight could get them kick off the team even lead to serious injuries to a teammate. So with doing more risky thing there is more of a demand for physical exertion. Muscle memory even plays a big part...

...The object I chose to describe is pompom. Pompom is an item used in cheerleading or cheerdancing. Pompoms are the decorative balls of handheld streamers thet cheerleaders often use as visual props. It gives visual effects in dances and even in other part of the routine. It is made up of cellophane or sometimes just a plain colored paper. It was first used back in 1930`s and at that time pompoms were all handmade from papers. Back in 1953, Lawrence Herkimer founded the cheerleading supply and started manufacturing pompoms. And in 1965 Fred Gastoff invented the first vinyl made pompom. Pom poms are also known as pompoms, poms, pom pons, pompons. All the spelling ending in “n” is the original names and all the spelling ending in “m” are the modernized names. I chose pompoms because it plays a great role in my passion which is cheerleading. In this time we don’t usually use pompoms but when I started as a cheerleader way back in high school, pompoms is the only symbol or mark that makes them recognize me as a cheerleader. Of course I don’t bring the pompoms all the time but whenever they see me holding one I am proud to say that I am a cheerleader. As time passed by I continue gaining knowledge and skills as a cheerleader. I became known in most of the college squads. We even won the National Cheerleading Competition and became top 1 in the country when I was in 3rd year high school. And now I have this scholarship here in Letran College because of everything skills I gained...

...My early nine o’clock appointment was at the Children’s Center in Fairfield, I entered through the rear of the building, because I found parking close by. I see children in their rooms it was a quiet walk from the laundry area down the hallway towards the Front Desk, but occasionally I will hear a child scream. Everything seemed clean and organized. The staff at the front desk was courteous, very helpful and friendly. I signed in and they gave me batch to wear while I am there. I chose a twenty-nine month old little boy named Mario, he was the oldest and the tallest of the other four, age ranging from a year to two years. “By the time a child reaches the age of two their weight increase by seventy-five percent, their head circumference increases from fourteen to nineteen inches”. Mario weight about thirty to thirty-five pounds, he has a full head of hair, so his head size to me is equivalent to his body size and weight. “Emotional regulation and impulse control continue to develop…[the] first cognition of exiting, social interactions and later cognitions of more abstract thoughts” Berger, Grossman (2013). Mario is quite a character, he speaks and teaches the little ones with authority. “In Biosocial growth, a caregiver enables babies to grow, to move and learn” (p. 129) 9:00 a.m. The three caregivers were joining in play time of how to change baby’s diapers. Mario was holding three play baby bottles for a doll wearing a green outfit. The caregiver respond to Mario’s request...
