Sasuke, now one of the last surviving Uchiha, was alone. He spent the first few days after the massacre wandering his family's complex, reflecting on the people who were now gone, killed by Itachi. Sasuke decided to do what Itachi had instructed and dedicated his life to vengeance, having no other interest than bringing about Itachi’s death. He threw himself into his studies at the Academy, making no efforts to form friendships. One of his classmates, Naruto Uzumaki, disliked Sasuke’s cool personality and the attention he received, and developed a one-sided rivalry in his pursuit to prove himself just as good as, if not better than, Sasuke. For his part, Sasuke thought little of Naruto and was usually annoyed by his outbursts, but would, at times, secretly smile at how hard Naruto worked because of him. Ironically, for all the attention he received, Naruto was the only person among his peers who understood Sasuke due to the painful experiences he had. After his final encounter with Itachi, Sasuke is left uncertain about what course to take. From long observation, Sasuke decides that the desire for vengeance that drove him for so long is the perfect solution to the world's problems: if a single individual, what Sasuke calls the “Hokage”, is solely responsible for making...

...M.S.210 Mohammed Rahman 893 03/17/16 Weekend Prompt #1 Title: Naruto 62 Author: Masashi Kishimoto Pages: 230 Prompt: Write about the main character’s personality and background. Naruto lives in a world of mystical ninja villages that seek to dominate each other through elite soldiers, called shinobi. Each shinobi molds and manipulates spiritual and physical energy to perform miraculous feats such as walking up trees and upon water, breathing fire, shooting lightning from the hands, creating tidal waves, phasing through rocks, cloning, and other amazing feats.

Naruto becomes a ninja and vows to become the greatest, most powerful shinobi that his village has ever seen so that they will have to respect him. In two and a half years he matures past this, but still maintains his dream of becoming the village leader so that he can protect his people. In the first part, Naruto grows stronger and stronger as he completes various missions with his mentor and two ninja teammates.

...As we sit in the theatre’s lobby at the University of Illinois in Springfield, the nerves and tension begin to settle in all of us. Most were either playing cards or gossiping about the other shows. The rest of us were quietly thinking about the fate of our show. As our coach came out of the office, we headed outside. He holds up a small piece of paper and flips it over. We all start screaming, hugging each other. My greatest success is being the stage manager for a state winning theater program. “Hey, Tom you ready for the play this year?” My coach Mr. Wargin says as I walk into the little theatre. “Of course! It’s my senior year, it is going to be the best year for us, I promise!” As the other stage managers and I stand on the stage taking attendance and pass out the calendar of practices and events, Mr. Wargin tells us a game plan. “We meet every Tuesday and Thursday; occasionally we’ll have a Saturday where we work all day. We’ll use those Saturdays for when we are falling behind and need to finish big projects that we can’t finish during the school week. We provide lunch if you come, and it is greatly appreciated if you do.” He continues to say, “We have two sets to build, one for each play, and we have about a month and a half to complete both”. He explains that our contest play is “The Picnic” and we are going to build two houses, with faux grass, something we have never done before. Our other show, the group interpretation, is “A League of Their Own”. This show...

...Overcoming Obstacles “The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something.” Were given a chance to succeed and reach our long-term goals. “Brick walls” is a symbolic meaning of overcoming every obstacle we cross is life. Were all here to have the ability to do whatever we want with our lives. The truth is that everyone struggles in their everyday life in one way or another. It’s about staying positive and making the best of what you have. Becoming a student at EPCC is a wonderful and exciting way to improve any person’s quality of life. Unfortunately, college can also be stressful and many times I have faced challenges while attending college. Either these challenges can block me from reaching my goals, or I can learn to overcome these challenges and achieve my college goals. Reading and writing is one of my biggest weakness I come across with; I admit I’m not the best at it. But I know by trying my best to read a book or even a small article helps me improve my language skills. It takes time to adapt to something that you were never good at for some odd reason. But I looked at it as an opportunity to learn something new and to test my ability and intelligence. It’s not easy to do with deadlines and pressure, but keeping a positive outlook will go a long way toward making each issue a bit less overwhelming. Problems and obstacles are not always solved on the first try, or second or even the third try. It is difficult to address these challenges...

...Final Essay Informative Prompt In today’s society the youth have been subjected to a vast amount of violence and criminal acts that were not addressed correctly. This caused the youth to believe that some crimes will go unpunished because they are minors and not “accountable” for their actions which is wrong. This causes these adolescents to act out and commit crimes and not get a suitable punishment. One question that is raised often is when should juvenile offenders should receive life sentences? My personal answer to that question is only when the child has committed murder/murders then they should receive a life sentence with a chance of parole that is the only exception. I strongly believe this due to the fact that if the child...

...Mega Prompt Throughout our philosophical readings, you can see that the main purpose is for the author to express their beliefs and why they think you should read them. To do this they use many forms of rhetoric to capture our attention. Authors, especially the philosophical ones we have been talking about, used rhetorical devices for many different reasons, including: drawing the readers attention and strengthening their essays and ideas. In the essays we read in class, the authors use rhetorical devices to help draw the readers attention. For example, Emerson uses an epigraph at the beginning of his essay that completely draws the attention of the audience. It says, "No te quaesiveris extra"(Emerson 1). This is a Latin quote meaning do not look outside of yourself from the truth. Just by knowing what the epigraph means, the reader can figure out the entire theme of this essay: self-reliance. Epigraphs are not the only devices used by these authors to capture the attention of the reader. Many of the authors use symbols. Whitman used a symbol of nature in his essay, The Song of Myself. He uses nature to discuss reincarnation after death, which is what he believes in, and he also uses it to show the growth of people. For example, he believes that no matter how bad a person is on earth, they will come back through reincarnation no matter what. The devices make their works more interesting because it gives some flavor to a boring topic. They also use rhetoric to appeal...

...In applying to a University of California Institute, It is hard to paint an accurate picture of just who you are as an individual. A student often has to deal with correctly navigating the rocky terrains of prompts given in order to give an accurate depiction of who they are, their morals, and their work ethics. However, even if a student answers the prompts to the best of their abilities, there may still be factors about themself that were left out which they would have wanted to include. It is for this reason why I want to use this opportunity to explain my motivation behind attending college. Growing up, My family wasn't the wealthiest but we had just enough to reach the end of the month. During my time in Elementary and a little bit of...

...Prompt 1: The first scene where Pyle was introduced is in the beginning scene when Pyle was not taking matters seriously while Sergeant Hartman was discriminating and shooting at him. This scene showed that Pyle is soft, childish and weaker than the others. His enervate character develops on the training scene. Prompt 2: Pyle’s moral center was very faint in the movie compared to other characters such as Private Joker and Animal Mother. Pyle’s personality and psychological changes after he got beaten up by his fellow recruits. On the next day (at 31minutes), Pyle did not say or respond to what Harman asked from the recruits.

...I have worked on our team as a Senior Technology Consultant specializing in designing and implementing disaster recovery solutions as well as any hardware and application migrations for client base for the last seven years. I was selected to work on a project to implement a hardware migration and as well as an upgrade for the entire cluster of hospitals in London, UK. The project presented a challenge because of its sheer scale and its first-of-a-kind nature. Typically, a project of this magnitude is divided into three separate projects with each having its own timeline and stakeholders. This project also boasted a very aggressive timeline that differed significantly from comparable implementations in the US. Logistical challenges such as the need for significant amount of work to be performed after regular business hours or on the weekends and data access regulations restricting foreign nationals to access data of UK residents from outside the UK further complicated matters. I travelled to UK every month for three weeks at a stretch for a year. I had to stretch beyond my professional comfort zone, be flexible with my personal time and produce high quality and consistent results despite many unique challenges. One major roadblock that I encountered during the project was that our design team failed to identify the need for an additional domain. This domain is used for sanity checks and ensures data integrity but its creation requires additional hardware and storage....

...The writing prompt I chose is number 5. There are multiple reasons I chose this one, but for now let's just stick with one. That reason being is i think it will be the easiest to do. The prompt is asking what event help the children come to admire their father and how does each event contribute. One of the events of top of my head is when Atticus came home to take care of the dog. The kids needed help and Atticus came back to help by shooting the rabid dog. That would help them understand that their father isn’t just a lawyer; he is their father, Darth Vader style. Another one of the events is when they went to the jail, he told them to go home. He didn’t force them too though, which got him a couple of brownie points. He could’ve told them to go home, which he did, but they didn’t...

... Our days of juggling shopping bags are coming to a close; soon, we’ll all be investing in box cutters to break down the mounds of Amazon boxes we’re accumulating. We won’t even have to leave our homes to get those box cutters, for we can conveniently order them right from our laptops. With Amazon promising that two-hour delivery is on the horizon, our world is getting closer and closer to an episode of The Jetsons. Seldom do we have to worry about running out of essentials such as coffee, laundry detergent, or pet food, because we can just as easily press a “dash button” and the items will appear on our doorsteps two days later. Even customer service employees are being replaced by robots who speak multiple languages. With robots readily replacing cashiers, security guards, and even shopping carts, seeing real people in any stores at all may just be a thing of the past. There’s now an app where anybody can fill their shopping cart right from their phone and pick it up an hour later. Digital is becoming the new “normal” as all these replacements are made. As fascinating as all these advances are, I find myself wondering about the countless people that are getting laid off because of all these robots stepping forth. We sit and wonder why such a large percentage of our people are jobless as we continue to replace real life people with technology. One single machine can replace the jobs of dozens of people. Shopping has been made easy with our many technological advances. However...

...Diversity Response Prompt American society has played a significant role in its view of culturally and ethnically diverse individuals. The design of education and the need for income has limited the inclusion of diversity and forced integration through curriculum, and social requirements for assimilation. The personal image of how those from a European dissent view themselves, as Case (2012) refers to as available unearned resources that whites are unaware of, but have the ability to utilize every day. Due to the opportunities, this places a deeper level of importance on assimilation, which exposes the roles non-white individuals have learned to play for acceptance. In many cases, it has cost humanity the knowledge and growth diversity adds...
