Recommended: Decision making is not an easy task to accomplish

When I decide to go out to eat, I generally have picked out where I want to go and what I want to order before I leave home. Nevertheless, when I arrive at the restaurant, my mind races in circles. Should I get what I was craving on the way here, or should I get what is on special? Should I try something new and different, or should I get one of my old favorites? Should I get it Supersized? For here or to go? Do I want the soup or salad? Should I get something to drink or for dessert? What would go best with the main course? After agonizing over all of my choices, I usually just end up following my gut instinct and ordering what I had in mind on the way to the restaurant. Decisions have always tended to come difficult for me, big or small.

Similar to selecting a meal at a restaurant, I have an extremely difficult time choosing a major at college. Since grade school, I have dreamed of becoming a schoolteacher. I had always envied their big desk, red pens, and superior knowledge. However, as I grew older, I became increasingly aware of how expensive college ...

    During the Renaissance, Europe became fascinated with ancient Greek culture, and some staged sporting and folkloric festivals using the name “Olympic Games.” It wasn’t until 1892 that Pierre de Coubertin proposed the idea that the Olympics should be a major international competition that would occur every four years. Coubertin raised the idea again at the conference on international competition in Paris in June 1894 in front of 79 delegates who unanimously approved his proposal. The international Olympic Committee (IOC) was formed, and the first games were planned for Athens in 1896.

  • Choosing a Major

    1988 Words  | 4 Pages

    Some people already know by the age of seven that they want to become a pilot or nurse; others, however, have more difficulties deciding what to do with their future. People who decided to go to a university or college have to make an important choice: what major are they going into? For many people this is a very difficult question. As the statistics show, one out of five students change their major between admission and the first day of classes. Nearly three out of four students change majors at least twice before they graduate. And three out of four college students express uncertainly about their major. These striking results raised some questions for me. Is it really necessary to choose a major? What influence has the choice of a specific major on the student and his or her education? What are the opportunities for the future? And how can these students be helped? Since I am still having trouble choosing a major myself, I decided to do some research on this topic and I hope it will help you a little bit to make the right choice.

Be creative, don’t rush, give yourself plenty of time and really think about what interests you in life. My major is something that I will want to enjoy, something that I will be doing for the rest of my life. Why would I want to be miserable at something I do in life? In two short essays: “College?

    The modern Olympic Games were inspired by the ancient Olympic Games in Greece that ran from 776 B.C. to 393 A.D. They were held in honour of the god Zeus who was the leader of a very popular cult in this period of time in Greece. The Olympics were viewed as a religious practice and as a form of entertainment.
