...To Be Determined at a Later Date The word procrastination often evokes images of sitting on the couch and watching TV, however, there are many different types of procrastination. There are many types of procrastinators: The Avoider, The I Will Do It Later, The Let Me Finish This First, The Ones Who Know What They Should Be Doing But Simply Do Not, and The I Deserve a Break. To make this essay easier to understand, the example of writing an essay will be used-- not that anyone procrastinates on writing essays. The personal mantra of the I Will Do It Later is as simple one might expect, “I will just do it later.” As soon as the essay is assigned this procrastinator just simply tells themselves that they will do it later. Often times in a chronic...

..."My Little Bit of Country" by Susan Cheever What would you prefer; The relaxing life of the suburbs or the wild diversity of the urban life? Some would prefer one while the other would feel inexplicably horrible in choosing the other. “My Little Bit of Country” is an essay by Susan Cheever, this essay starts from when she was a little girl and ends in 2012 which is when she wrote the essay. In the beginning little Susan Cheever was living in New York and was pretty happy with her life there, but that wasn’t enough for the family, they wanted the American Dream with the white picket fence and a place in the “real” country, as Susan Cheever puts it. This did not please her and she really disliked the suburbs, that when she got older she would go to New York as much as possible. In the end she moves to New York again and is happy and forever satisfied with the urban life. The story is basically written with contrasts, contrasts and more contrasts. The most obvious one is the suburb life vs. the urban life; country vs. city. She very much dislikes the country life, it being a step down from the city: “Why would I want to scrape around the rough, dangerous ice of a country lake when I could glide around the smooth ice at the Wollman Ring and pause for a hot chocolate when my toes and fingers get too cold?” here she compares the natural procedure of the lake turning to ice with a manmade ice rink specifically made to be the most safe way to skate. Some would say that the country would have something special about it...

...with the kids and make the class interesting for the students. In the beginning of the year Mr. Baker felt all the stories he had heard about the teacher were true the class was very boring. Late in the year the students were given an assignment to write an essay and as usual he waited until the last minute to start writing his essay. When he picked his topic to write about and started writing he got very interested and wanted to start writing more for himself. Due to the requirements of the assignment Mr. Baker did not feel his paper would get a good grade because of all the added writing so he figured he would write another essay for the class. It took him so long to finish writing the original essay he didn’t have time to write another paper for the class so he turned in his original essay. A few days later after the teacher handed out the graded papers he started to read Mr. Baker’s paper aloud in the class. This made him feel so good about the writing he had done because the class was enjoying it and laughing they were entertained. This made him feel like he had an opportunity to write for a living although he knew this wouldn’t happen straight out of high school it gave him a start and an outlook for the future. I believe the writer’s purpose...

...Innovated Learning Essay A typical Students response to a hated subject in school is “What will I need to know this for in my future?” Creativity is just as important in education as literacy. Opening up your mind to embrace your gifts should be stressed a lot more in the high school curriculum. In today’s society, as you get older, your original sense of your childhood creativity begins to disintegrate. We become unwilling to use our capabilities out of the fear of being wrong. As you get older the basic school subjects of math, science, literature, and history are defined and expanded on in learning then using one’s personal creativity. Most education leaders push students to use their methods in order to become successful in the student’s education. Unfortunately most students miss out on what their creative aspects in which can make them successful down the line. Speaker, Ken Robinson, demonstrates a great speech that indicates that society needs to be stressing creativity just as much as your typical education. “Children are all artist”, says Ken Robinson. We as humans are naturally born with a sense of imagination. When children are first learning how the world works, they will creatively think of reason why it works the way it does. For example when you are first teaching a child about subjects like religion and the weather we may come up with or they come up with things like thunder is God going bowling. These reasons make for a less scary idea, and also provide...

...Misleading 100 As usual, I sauntered in the hallway, dreading getting to my American literature class. Mrs. Fisher announced to the class, “Your next assignment is a research paper on an individual that had a great impact on Black History.” As soon as I heard the announcement, my heart beat increased and my palms began to sweat. Literally, I dropped my face on my desk and whispered, “God help us all; I’m about to fail this class.” I had a gut feeling that the assignment was going to be difficult and time consuming. Immediately I imagined the many hours that I would have to assert on the assignment, and the thought depressed me. Little did I know that doing the assignment would bring me one of the greatest surprises of my academic life and taught me that the writing process can’t be rushed. Mrs. Fisher paced back and forth in front of the class room as she explained how someone inspired her to become a teacher. At some point I stopped listing and was on the verge of dozing off. Suddenlty my attention snapped back to her as her words “I get to assign you the person to do this essay on” pushed themselves into my consciousness. Up this point I had thought that we can pick our own person and had settle on Martin Luther King, Jr. Mrs. Fisher proceed to assing different historical figures to different students while the fear of not getting MLK creeped over me. Finally, Mrs. Fisher said,”Santiago Torres, MLK.” For the first time in that class, I felt hopeful. 3 days later we had the rough draft...

...CLRC Writing Center Structure of a Personal Narrative Essay “Narrative” is a term more commonly known as “story.” Narratives written for college or personal narratives, tell a story, usually to some point, to illustrate some truth or insight. Following are some tools to help you structure your personal narrative, breaking it down into parts. The “Hook” Start your paper with a statement about your story that catches the reader’s attention, for example: a relevant quotation, question, fact, or definition. Introduction Set the Scene Provide the information the reader will need to understand the story: Who are the major characters? When and where is it taking place? Is it a story about something that happened to you, the writer, or is it fiction? Thesis Statement The thesis of a narrative essay plays a slightly different role than that of an argument or expository essay. A narrative thesis can begin the events of the story: “It was sunny and warm out when I started down the path”; offer a moral or lesson learned: “I’ll never hike alone again”; or identify a theme that connects the story to a universal experience: “Journeys bring both joy and hardship.” “Show, Don’t Tell” Good story telling includes details and descriptions that help the reader understand what the writer experienced. Think about using all five senses—not just the sense of sight—to add details about what you heard, saw, and felt during the event. For example, “My heart jumped as the dark ...

...blueprint of how you will approach the explanation of your thoughts, and to make sure that your point is clear.. How do you do all that? -- One step at a time. Let's start with giving your reader an idea of what they will be reading: Your Introduction 1. Start with a broad statement about your topic, then continue to narrow it until you get closer to your point.For example: People think that terrorism is someone else's problem, that it happens to others who are far away, and that they are safe from it. Luckily for most of us that is the case; but for some, living with terror is part of their daily lives. For these unlucky folks, life at home, in the neighborhood, and even at school can be a nightmare. This will help you connect with the reader, who needs to find some common ground in order to be interested in what you have to say. Mentioning current topics, popular or unpopular attitudes, or making a general statement about the topic are all good ways to start your essay. 2. Start with a contrasting thought, then lead the reader towards your point. For example: Before kids are born, parents usually think their children will bring only happiness to the household. Little do they know... There will be confusion, insecurity, exhaustion, and oh, yes, trouble with all of the relatives fighting over the baby. 3. Start by telling your reader why the topic is important, then make your point. For example: Sexually transmitted diseases such as Herpes, Gonorrhea, C.M.V, Aids, and...

...“ All days are not the same. Save for a rainy day. When you don’t work savings will work for you.” -M.K Soni. How does this pertain to seniors in high school and their financial futures? Can saving up now truly benefit you later on? Does saving up a great deal of your money save you later on down the road? What is saving, budgeting, and planning on your financial stability for your future? These are all questions I asked myself that I knew I would use in this essay. Through a set of thorough research, dedication, and thought I came up with one answer that is easy. Saving now will benefit all people, especially seniors in high school. It will help them have no worries on a variety of things, and you won’t have a hassle or worry financially. In this essay I will be giving examples, facts, and prove to you how I am right. Why start saving now, isn’t that what a job is for; providing money for my everyday life? Saving is a systematic plan for the expenditure of a usually fixed resource, such as money or time, during a given period. Imagine if you lost your job, and couldn’t pay your car payment, and/or had no money to buy your everyday needs. You start using a credit card, and end up spending so much that you cannot pay it back on time. What happens to that bill? It builds up interest, and creates an even bigger problem to begin with. Interest is a charge for a loan, usually a percentage of the amount loaned; an excess or bonus beyond what is expected or due. No one wants to...
