Curious, adventurous, and outgoing are a few of the myriad adjectives that describe both Nancy Drew and I. In the movie “Nancy Drew” directed by Andrew Fleming, this intelligent and spunky girl is known for her love of solving crimes and investigating problems. Although I am no detective, it is clear that Nancy Drew and I have a lot in common. I share her love for spontaneity, problem solving, and helping people. In the movie starring Emma Stone, Nancy Drew is portrayed as confident and committed. She is always focused on the task at hand, whether it be solving a mystery or simply getting her homework done. Personally, I am committed to my school work and I pride myself in organization and consistency in my classes. In many aspects, I see myself in Nancy through the way she cares for her community, family, and friends. While Nancy helps her community by solving crimes and keeping people safe, I help my community by volunteering at my church every weekend. Although through different methods, I share Nancy’s passion to make people's lives better. Additionally, family plays a huge role in both of our lives. Nancy has a very close …show more content…
In the movie, Nancy uses her famous lemon bars to get people on her side. Personally, I love to bake cookies. Before every track meet, I bake two batches of my chocolate chip cookies. They are always a hit and it is an easy way to acquire new friends. Although I am no fashion icon, I have an appreciation for cute and affordable clothing. Nancy tends to wear more unique clothing, and she has a specific style. Similarly, I have an aptitude for comfortable and tasteful clothing. I have my own signature style, just like Nancy. Another parallel in our lives is the balance of social life and work. Social gatherings and time with friends are still parts of Nancy’s schedule. Social interaction such as hanging out with my friends is a necessity in my life as

For these reasons, Leslie has become one of my role models. Aside from our love of waffles, I feel Leslie and I share a few things. We are both feminists who would not hesitate to help a woman in need or correct people who have misconceptions of feminism. In addition, we both have an attention to detail that always yields a superior result we’re proud of. However, we both have our negatives: because we want things to be perfect, we take on too much and forget to rely on others. However, we are both working on changing that because we have supportive people around
The first influential factor to the atrophy of social life that Eitzen writes about is moving away. Americans nowadays are always on the go – if moving is the most convenient idea, they will move with no regard to formed relationships that will soon be broken. People are often forced to move in order to follow a job or because of problems within the family. Constantly moving about causes a decline in intimate relationships. This is also true in people who live alone. The lack of regular and reliable social interaction can lead to a less sociable personality and less motivation to form real relationships. Real relationships are what lead to a healthy social life.
Many pieces of literature give different perspectives and change over time. Some may incorporate the same characters along with the same concept, but some contain opposite perspectives of the stories. Cinderella has two different films that tell the same story but they contain different concepts throughout the films. While the 1950’s version of Cinderella does not reveal Cinderella’s mother, the 2015 film version reveals her mother and makes the step sisters more attractive
Mrs. Callaway is what every nurse should strive to become. I want to follow in her footsteps. She never complains about anything, she just steps up and does what needs to be done. I strive for this every day. I do not want to be the nurse that is stuck in an office but I want to be that nurse that all my patients and co-workers can count on to do the right thing and to make the right decisions. I understand that every day is not going to be great days, but if I put my best foot forward everything else will follow.
Roses are red, violets are blue, Snow White has changed, everything’s new. This is a different beginning than the original story of Little Snow White by the Grimm Brothers and retold by the director Rupert Sanders, in the movie Snow White and the Huntsman. The original story portrays Snow White as a beautiful, but naive, young woman, leading up to her eating a poisoned apple from the evil queen. The evil queen has been jealous of Snow White after she has grown up and become more beautiful. Although in both the story and the movie, Snow White eats a poisoned apple, Snow White in Snow White and the Huntsman is portrayed as more brave and courageous, even after she wakes up from the poisoned apple. In the end, both the story and the movie show that Snow White’s triumphs out rules all, no matter what is thrown at her, but the difference is in how. While there are many common motifs across the story and the movie; Gender roles have changed over time, as shown in the
Nancy Hazel, later to become known as Nannie Doss, was born on November 4th, 1905 in Blue Mountain, Alabama. Nannie was one of five children of Jim Hazle and Louisa Holder Hazle. She endured an abusive, despondent youth with an oppressive, unfeeling father. Nannie never learned to read well, and her education was erratic due to her father pulling her out of school during the sixth grade to help work on the farm. Nancy was a prisoner in her own home. Her mother, however, was viewed as adoring and gracious to Nannie and her three sisters. Both Nannie and her mother hated James, who was a strict, often controlling father and husband with a nasty streak (http://murderpedia.org/female.D/d/doss-nannie.htm). Her most loved diversion was understanding her mother 's romantic books and longing for a romantic eventual fate of her own. Eventually, Nannie would become obsessed in her mission for the ideal spouse and romance.
She goes after what she wants, she is not afraid of anything or anyone and her style is remarkable and exhibits class. As the show progresses you find out that she is having an affair with the president and she is aware of the consequences, but in the end she doesn’t seem to care about those consequences. She is always trying to fix everyone else’s problems/crisis, but many wonder if she is just avoiding having to fix the many problems/crisis she has in her own her life. Overall, her character is one that can be relatable and people can put their self in her shoes in different scenarios throughout the show. Just as Olivia tries to fix everyone else’s problems, some people do the same thing in their own
As the world has transformed and progressed throughout history, so have its stories and legends, namely the infamous tale of Cinderella. With countless versions and adaptations, numerous authors from around the world have written this beauty’s tale with their own twists and additions to it. And while many may have a unique or interesting way of telling her story, Anne Sexton and The Brother’s Grimm’s Cinderellas show the effects cultures from different time periods can have on a timeless tale, effects such as changing the story’s moral. While Sexton chooses to keep some elements of her version, such as the story, the same as the Brothers Grimm version, she changes the format and context, and adds her own commentary to transform the story’s
Various electronics are frequently used to go on pointless websites, such as Twitter and Facebook, which ruin society’s social abilities. More and more people use social media on the internet as a communication source. This does not apply merely to kids and teens, but adults as well. Using these sorts of websites as a way of communicating causes many individuals’ social skills to decrease. A plethora of children and teens would rather stay inside and interact with their friends through the internet than go hang out with them. Before technology people were not afraid to go up to a random person and talk to them. Now many friendships form through the internet and these friendships are not genuine. When these “friends” meet in person, they find nothing to talk about. For example, I remember after watching Perks of being a Wallflower, a movie taking place in the early nineties, my friends and I discussed how all the characters communicated in person and during hanging out they played games and talked. Now...
you can hardly be socialable anymore, and how are you supposed to meet people if you
How much can technology impact your social life? Who would of thought that technology would affect life in such a major way? Little did people know that technology can impact the way humans interact with each other. While listening to music and playing games on their mobile devices, how many people actually get to know one another while standing right next to each other? A small ride on a metro or bus ride will show you just how little interaction goes on in a humans life do to the amount of use on their mobile devices. The role technology plays in socializing has a great impact on people’s interaction. People can be standing right next to each other with out saying one word to one another. While waiting for the next class to start or even during the class, people tune out the rest of the world and this can lead up to social isolation. Technology has had a bad impact on the way humans socialize because it causes people to be less interactive. Social isolation is a health condition that can become very severe and lead up to depression, anxiety, despair and many other things. Social isolation can be avoided if technology is limited to use at only appropriate times as when bored, alone or incase of an emergency you would use cell phones.
We may be very dependent on our social lives and having that is important as long as it is balanced and positive, learning to balance our lives with family, friends, school, and money is a big part of adulthood.
