Stealing sister's doll: Writing my own stories: I believe it was in sixth or seventh grade when I wanted a certain setting in my life with only certain people. So I started writing, simple things I wished up. But then when I got to 8th grade I had watched a show and read something over it to lead myself with another totally different idea. A whole book, perhaps even a series with it all. Things that happened in my day, even what I heard would trigger something that I would instantly want to put in it. Then I would get lost in my own stories, saying things no one would know what they meant. I truly wanted it all to happen since it was worse but much better than my life, now even. Losing my one and only best-friend: We met in preschool before
When I was searching for a passion project, I knew I wanted to bake. So, I spent time on the internet searching for something to bake. Then over the weekend, I met my friend, and I saw her eating cotton candy. I remembered having these delicious cotton candy cookies in India. That's when I decided I was going to make cotton candy cookies for my passion project.
Walking up dilapidated stairs, my friend and I enter into the chapter room of Beta Sigma Psi, where the Little Sisters of the Gold Rose meets every week. The fraternity house smells of stale beer and sweat, and has clear signs of past parties and shenanigans. However, we have officially become activated members of the service sorority and were attending our first chapter meeting with the entire sorority. In that chapter room we discussed future service events, volunteering opportunities, and then went around the room for anyone to share news and announcements with the group. It was at this moment that I felt like a true active member in LSGR, when everyone was interested in hearing about each other’s lives and wellbeing. While as a rushing
Everyone has difficult obstacles in their lives. I have had a few myself and they each have changed me for the better. My most profound experience was being repeatedly molested as a child. I wasn't aware of exactly what was happening to me. I didn't know being touched was wrong. I just knew how disgusting it made me feel, but I didn't tell anyone at the time. I shared this publicly as an adult to help other parents realize that children need to be protected. It was a long journey to reach to the point where I could speak about my experiences with anyone. These experiences from my childhood affected me deeply; however, I have overcome them, learned from them and I have contributed at a higher level because of them.
I had just turned eleven and received a book, Eleven by Lauren Myracle, from my mother as a birthday gift. As I opened the page and read the first line I immediately had an overwhelmingly bubbly feeling. The sheer coincidences made me feel like that book was written with me in mind. I read on and on non stop for the rest of the day because how could I turn away from a book that was hypothetically written about me. It expressed my pre-teen drama, things only an eleven-year-old would consider drama and it inspired me. It gave me the sudden urge to pour my heart into the little mini books I was known for writing and leaving around the house. Writing was something that I was very passionate as a little girl and is still something I am very passionate about as a young adult. The little things I did in my childhood
It first began, my love for aviation, when I took a solo trip to Missouri to visit my cousins when I was about eleven years old. Although I enjoyed
In today’s society victimization exists but not as harsh as it was in the 19th century. The world has started to be more accepting towards change. However, people still face the oppression of their thoughts, choices, and values. Women for example, are sometimes not paid as much as a male doing the same job. For both sexes, however more for females, there is victimization based on their body image. They are restricted to look,eat, and act a certain way. There is also a disconnect between the poor and the rich. Where, the poor are treated different in a negative way. The same goes for Aboriginals and immigrants. Lastly, relationships play an important part in one’s life because it defines their ideals. In order to have a healthy relationship, there must be proper communication, understanding of one another’ views, and the ability to freely express themselves. However many people become victim to unstable relationships.
The narrator is regretful about what happened. We can see this when the narrator says “so now i moan an unclean thing, who might have been a dove" the loss of innocence here is obvious as the narrator describes herself as an "unclean thing" that could have been pure and innocent. This also implies the narrators regret towards the things she has done, as she is calling herself a "thing". This suggests that she is not even thinking of herself as a human being and that she is being very regretful
The Struggle for Identity in A Doll's House A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen, is a play that was written ahead of its time. In this play, Ibsen tackles women's rights as a matter of importance. Throughout this time period, it was neglected. A Doll's House was written during the movement of Naturalism, which commonly reflected society. Ibsen acknowledges the fact that in 19th century life the role of the woman was to stay at home, raise the children and attend to her husband.
Beginning in kindergarten, was when I first fell in love with reading and writing. When I was in kindergarten I remember bringing home a ton of books to read to my parents and one book in particular was my favorite story and that was the story, “The Corduroy Bear.” I probably read that book a hundred times because I loved it so much. I read so many books in kindergarten that, I soon became interested in writing too. In my stories I would write
In Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House”, characters are constantly changing their identity. Nora opens up the play by presenting her childish mind to Torvald. Always being in control, Torvald see’s Nora only as a child and not ever being serious. Her father and Torvald brainwashed her mind to act like a cute puppet to them. She pretends to be vulnerable to him to receive attention and money. Nora’s true self is hidden deep underneath herself waiting to appear. Because of unfortunate events in the play, Nora will stop at nothing to receive what is rightfully hers as her sense shifts from Torvald’s joking wife, into a self-empowering, prepared woman.
Divorce and separation are frowned upon in society and it is even more so when it is the wife that leaves the family. In Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, this becomes the controversial topic of debate for many readers; was Nora Helmer justified in leaving her husband and kids or not? It is argued that both parents are needed for a child to succeed in life and that separation is an act of cowardness. However, several readers also debate that Nora was justified in leaving Torvald and her kids. The mistreatment Nora constantly faced through offensive nicknames, her child-like mentality that made her unfit to take care of her children and her identity as a doll demonstrates her need to leave the Hemler household.
Then I struck an interest in photography once it combined with my other interest which was cars and people. After I saw these amazing pictures of vehicles being driven through scenery, I went ahead and created my own twitter page to post my own pictures of cars which has grown to 4,500+ followers. This enlarged my interest to move onto other pictures such as portraits, like when people take pictures at the beach and get a photo of them jumping in the air, it's called an action picture. All in all i've always been interested in photography since my dad bought my family our first camera in
When it was the first day of summer school. Attending my english class was going to be dreadful-having to write a complete 2-3 page essay every week and reading a book called “ True Notebooks” by Mark Salzman. Every 2 chapters, the class would take a quiz about the readings of what happened to the characters and sometimes have group discussion on the book. Taking three classes during the summer was going to be painful because I knew I had to manage my time wisely to complete an essay in a week and study for my other classes. After the first
I am not very interesting actually. Accept the fact that I collect old, broken, and useless dolls. I have nothing else to do, I have nobody to talk to, so this is the only thing that keeps me going. I came upon this camera while I was looking for more broken dolls. It had something different about it that made me wonder. I picked it up and put it around my neck. I began to feel lifted, so I slowly stopped collecting broken dolls, and began to talk to real people. As the days went on I started to realize people were actually interested in me. Maybe there was something that changed their minds, or maybe there was something that changed in me.
Well, as I began to get older I started to achieve more and more. When was 8 I started washing dish. That was a great achievement to me back then, but now I regret it. Now my mother makes me wash dish all the time. When I go to other people house they want me to wash their dishes. Now I hate washing dish. After learning how to wash
