... The movie was produced in a small town Jackson, Mississippi. Racial tension was so high at that time. The Black women worked not only as maids in that town, but they practically raised white people’s children too. So far, they were seen as “HELP” and were treated inappropriately and poorly. Skeeter, is a young woman who were living in that town. She gets the idea to write a story about these women who were maids, because of her good experience with the black woman who raised her and took really good care of her when her mother was not around. I really liked and enjoyed this movie. It got my attention and made me cry couple of times while watching some parts. What was so interesting and good about this movie? At the beginning of the movie, the acting was excellent. Viola Davis who played a maid named (Aibileen), she is an amazing woman who was one of the central characters in the movie and Octavia Spencer who played (Minnie), who was Aibileen's best friend who also was a maid. Both have very different personalities, Aibileen’s confidence and Minnie’s impatient and straight forward personality that indicated to me that she wasn’t scared of anything. They both worked for different families but were facing the same problems. The amazing work both of them did, Viola Davis and...

...Combat Medic, Leader, Mother, Wife: Characteristics of ME 17 June 2012 Introduction to Sociology: Sociology 211 Dr. L. Susan Williams Introduction and Definition of Key Terms What is status? In modern society, status is how society decides what pedestal to place you on. Society can also determine your status on your profession. Celebrities, teachers, doctors and lawyers are placed on a high pedestal and held to a higher standard. Garbage men are looked down on and sometimes not even held to a standard because of their profession. According to Witt (2011:103), status “is the social positions we occupy relative to others.” Status isn’t just what your profession may be. Being a woman, man, Caucasian, Asian, student, or gardener is a status. There are different types of status. A person can have an ascribed status, which is basically a status that a person is born with such as male/female or race. A person can also have an achieved status, which is a status that a person can change such as student, wife, or occupation. With each status that we hold, we also have roles to play. “A role is a set of expectations for people who occupy a given social position or status” (Witt 2011:105). For example, we expect teachers to be great with students and lawyers to know the law. Unfortunately, this is not always the truth. For the duration of this paper, I would like to share important ascribed and achieved statuses that I myself hold in society. Status and Roles ...

... Maybe it will be so bad that the reader will want to use dope to recover from the reading. So which one is it? Dope, dope, or dope? Over the years, many words go through transitions in their usage and meaning. The adjective dope serves as an excellent example of one of these such words. Who really even knows what it means anymore having gone through change after change depending on the era, user and situation as well as many other factors. Based off these various reasons, the word dope has taken on many different meanings over the years ranging from gravy, to stupid, to drugs, and the most recent definition being cool or awesome. As the time period shapes the word and redefines it, users should strive to use the most recent definition to prevent miscommunication. In this specific case, Dope should be redefined as a word to be used synonymously with awesome or cool to describe something as being really neat or impressive. Dope originally held the meaning in 1807 of describing a gravy or other viscous liquid coming from the Dutch word doopen, meaning “to dip.” The first ever official recording of the word in any form of dictionary or written ledger however was not until 1851 and carried a whole new meaning. At this time it was utilized as a form of American slang describing a silly or stupid person according to the Oxford English Dictionary A classic example of this usage occurs in the famous Disney movie Snow White in 1937 where one of the seven dwarves had the name Dopey remarking...

...meeting on Reentry in Hampton. This group was set up by the Department of Correction in order to stop recidivism. I really didn’t know what I was getting into when I went in there. I introduced myself to everyone. This one lady in particular stood out to me. I had a hard time trying to figure it out. So, this lady stood up and said “I’m Sandra, the chair for this group.” I say “Ok.” Sandra was still looking out me like I had a disease or something. So, finally she decides to say what’s on her chest I guess. “Who invited you to this meeting?” she ask.

...As for the characters, Wade Watts, a.k.a. Parzival in OASIS, was such a relatable character for me. I really loved how even though this being was set in the late future, his difficulties, his thoughts, his actions throughout the entirety of the book, gave me so many emotions, because in certain situations, I felt exactly what he felt, because I’ve been through a lot of big challenges in my life as well and that’s what I really loved about his character.

...stop for anything. This is just a summary of their lives there a lot more to them. Mary Slessor’s background was very interesting, when it comes to being a missionary. When she was growing up she had very little education, she was taught very little because her mother couldn’t afford it mainly because of their father (we’ll get to that later.). She started working at a mill because her mom needed the help, which helped Mary also because after her shifts she got to go to a mini school. Now we will talk about her father, which she loved even though he wasn’t a great role model. He made poor decisions, as in drinking every time he went past a pub, which caused him to come home every night drunk. She said he was a great man when he was sober but when he was drunk he was a totally different person. Mary also had many sisters and brothers but they all died expect her and two others. Hudson Taylor’s background was pretty average, he had plenty of care from his parents he had very well education, and he grew up pretty normal. Both of them were from the U.K and their parents where also saved...

...and how great of a time my mom had when she decided to go to Rome for a semester, I definitely wanted to see the options that were available to me. The meeting was held right after class in Sellinger Hall, John brought in a lot of guest speakers who have actually just got back from studying abroad from places like Bangkok, Ireland, Australia, and China. First, we went around the room introducing ourselves. Next John passed out a huge handout with all the information on every place we could go studying abroad and what the requirements and prerequisites for each trip. And he also brought up on the computer of how to research them on Loyola’s website if we needed more information. After John talked about the information for almost all of the trips, we got to here experiences from each one of the students that were there. The guy that went to Bangkok spoke first; he told a lot of stories all about how awesome the apartments are, told us how easy it was to keep up with your school work, and how relaxing it was to have two week breaks to just go explore the capitals, mountains, and to take a trip to Hong Kong. The two girls that went to Ireland spoke next, and spoke of how pretty it was to live in Cork. They also spoke of their “interesting” experiences living with another family for a few weeks. Next, a girl who visited China spoke of how unusual, yet awesome it was to live in a completely different society and as a plus, it was communist. She also said that you don’t need that high...

...The first song performed was Fantasy on Mr. Hyde’s Song. The Fantasy comes from Stevenson’s “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and My Hyde, and Hyde’s mood after committing a murder. The performance was awesome. All the musicians played cohesive, the percussion was done very well. On percussion was Jacob Adam Garcia. The second song, DarkBloom was a solo performance by Courtenay Vandiver Pereira, who plays the cello, and might I add very well. Her technique and hand control was very consistent. The song itself was exactly dark bloom, more like dark gloom. To the point the guy next to me dose off. The third song titled Spur was played right before intermission. Honestly, I really don’t remember anything that stood out about this composition. At intermission I had a conversation with a gentle =man by the name of Trey Harris. An old school country music rock and roller, who did the lighting and sound production. We had great conversation and by the end, the second half of the performance began. The second half began with a solo on the flute, and on the flute was Amanda Chavis. She had me won over from her performance in the first song with a note pattern that was good, but her solo was quite different. It seemed that her breath control was off. Though a flute has an airy sound, she seemed to be out of it early. Even...
