The Bullies of Broad street The City of Brotherly Love, there is so much to do in the area, such as going to see the Broad Street Bullies, also known as the Philadelphia Flyers play. The Flyers were trying to reach their season long goal of making the playoffs, and dominating the Blue Jackets could get them. My family likes going to professional sporting events, and Philly is where most of our favorites teams play. This was going to be the second time we see a hockey game, the last time the Flyers crushed the Red Wings 7-2. I hoped this game would be a little closer to make it more entertaining. It was time to go, I could not wait for the amazing three-hour ride early in the morning just to go to the King of Prussia Mall. The hockey game was at seven PM and we got up at seven AM. Luckily, Kanye West’s new album came out to help pass the time the songs were stuck in my head all day. On the way, of course, my family had to get their fix of Dunkin Donuts iced coffee, which I passed on. King of Prussia Mall is supposedly the third biggest mall in the United states, but I wasn’t wowed. Unless you are a rich person or a woman looking for a purse there is no point of wasting time to go to this tourist attraction. You would think because it is a big mall that someone would have no trouble finding something to buy. No, the only thing I bought in there was a baseball …show more content…

I have listened to that classics album so much that I am beginning to dislike the band. Although it was not what I wanted in a game, it was a memorable experience with my family. The day was pretty hectic until the game started. I could have slept in and not gone to the mall but I wanted to make sure my parents and brother were happy, even if I wasn’t. It was the highlight of my spring break week. Next time I go hopefully there will be a nail

    I would follow what Principal Milhoviak did, which is contact my discipline team and get their points of view. Prior to that, I would need to understand the main problem. It sounded like he did that by talking with the sister and getting her story. This is the first step, understanding the situation. The next step is formulating a solution on how to handle the situation. This is where getting other people involved was a great idea. Principals know they cannot do it alone so they need to have a team, especially in these types of situations. The problem was that team offered many suggestions. As a principal I would listen to all of them and also refer to the school handbook. In this case, since the student is not in his fourth period, I would call for the brother and sister back to the office until parents are reached. As a principal the priority is finding the student who made the threat and keeping the victims safe until parents are reached and the team decides what to do next.

  • Stomp Out Bullying

    When the word bullying is brought up, one always pictures in his or her mind a big angry boy, who picks on other small helpless children. What some don’t realize is that bullying comes hand in hand with popularity, likeability, and peer acceptance. Children are heavily influenced by other kids his or her age, as the old saying goes, “But mom Jimmy gets to stay up past 10, why can’t I?” According to Miranda Witvliet, to understand children’s peer group affiliation, you need to be able to examine children naturally occurring groups resemble each other on bullying, likeability, and perceived popularity. To be accepted by a popular group of kids, others would follow in his or her footsteps and will bully others, even if the child knew it were wrong. Schools around the country have constructed anti-bullying campaigns and have programs setup to teach students, teachers, and family members what to do to prevent bullying. In an article by Jennifer Dignan, she explains how Stomp Out Bullying and The National Center for Bullying Prevention are two organizations working to put an end to the epidemic. To help prevent bullying people need to understand how the victims and the bullies are affected by other peers.

    I loved the concert because the songs were lively and energetic. The improvisation was really nice and gave the audience a feel for the creativity expressed through jazz music. My favorite part of the evening was the solos by Justin Crossman and Tyler Jones singing Summertime. They are both remarkable musicians and knew how to spark up the concert. I would highly recommend attending a jazz concert by the PSU Jazz Band or any jazz band if you are given the opportunity. Attending a jazz concert lends the opportunity to experiencing jazz in a new way.

    One half of the story was of a man named Daniel Burnham, who was a famous architect of his time. It’s in this half of the story that can you see the good part of the city. Pride can be seen mainly throughout his story. His life in these pages was based on the construction of the World Columbian Exposition which was a fair held in Chicago in 1893. This magnificent fair was in honor of one of America’s most well known discoverers, Christopher C. Columbus. This was the 400th anniversary of his discovery of the new world.

    It looked like the largest strip mall and smelled like a carnival filled with funnel cakes and cotton candy. There were more than a days’ worth of shops and attractions to visit. Every building looked as if it were built in the 20’s and made from very old wood with unique details. They had everything from Ripley’s Believe it or Not Auditorium, Guinness World Records Museum, air brush t-shirts, the finest dining and a moonshine tasting shop where they made their own moonshine. Every corner was occupied by an attraction like a hurricane motion ride, a sky bucket lift over a mountain, a moving theater and a large water park. At night the city lite up with neon lights and bands played live music. The restaurants had roof top dining with a view overlooking the mountains and hundreds of people walking the neon lite strip. I really enjoyed the atmosphere downtown everyone was so friendly and

  • American Football Music Analysis

    The former is probably the most upbeat song on the entire album, as the track opens with a twinkly-jam influenced rhythmic riff. The tone that is set carries through the rest of the track and the catchy guitar melodies are complimented with Kinsella’s now more urgent, passionate vocals. The faux-bridge after the first two minutes of the track turns into an instrumental, math rock influenced sound the band is classically known for. The closing track, however, might be the pinnacle of the entire album. The lyrical content touched summarizes the overarching themes perfectly, “wild nights when we were younger, we thought we’d live forever, at least we’ll die together”. The track also jams in all the elements American Football is loved for; melodic trumpet lines, soaring melodies, subdued yet fluttering guitars, and a peaceful fade out ending. With the soft yet abrupt ending to the album you are beckoned to listen again as if the nostalgic drenched atmosphere was an addictive

  • The Solution to Bullies

    523 Words  | 2 Pages

    We all agree that bullying is atrocious. Surveys Show That 77% of students are bullied mentally, verbally, and physically. Many schools are asking the same question: What do we do with the bullies? Many bullies end up getting kicked out of their school, because of their actions of bullying. I believe schools should not kick out bullies. Students who are found guilty of bullying other classmates should not be kicked out of school, as a consequence for their actions. If they are kicked out they: will most likely/ never improve their actions, will have a decreased level of education, and will lose self-confidence.

You can pass someone and not now their name, who their parents are, or what their story is. There’s always something new happening and something different to find out. It’s not like my small town, when the news of something travels what seems like faster than a rocket. The main reason why I’m even drawn to Philadelphia would be because it’s so different from what I’m used to.
