Essay About My English Class
I can remember seeing that I had to take an English class my first semester of college. I was already overwhelmed with starting college, and having
to write college essays made me get even more nervous. I sat down with my mom and decided to look at the English classes available, and I finally
decided that I had to take an evening class to make it work in my schedule. The first day of English came and now looking back it was not as bad as I
thought. It made me a better writer and be where I am today. It may have taken me some time to get where I am today, but at least I am on the right
track. English Composition helped me realize that I am my own author and have strengths that I did not realize I had. When I first started college I did
not know what to expect with an English class. I liked writing about topics that interested me, but high school did not allow me to do that. I took

I learned many techniques from my professor. He helped me realize that it is okay to have your own opinion as long as you back it up. He showed
me that I am an author when I did not think I was. He also told us to read our essays out loud when we proofread, and I always did this technique
before submitting all my essays. I can remember having to write my first essay and I was scared, because I felt like I had to get a good grade. I
started thinking about what tools I could use to help me, and I decided to go to The Learning Center to help with my essay. When I went there they
would make edits to my essay and then explain what I should change. The tutor noticed I used multiple choppy sentences and commas in spots there
should not be. Sometimes I would even go twice to make sure I did not miss any minor mistakes. Going there helped me feel more confident as a
writer and I learned from my mistakes. I had many helpful techniques from multiple people that shaped me into the writer I am

Descriptive Essay About My Morning
This morning I woke up, the same as everyday stretching my legs off my bed and onto the floor, my arms raised up grazing the ceiling. As any other
day, I got out of bed and waltzed into the kitchen where I could smell the aroma of coffee being freshly brewed. My mother was up, bright and early
fixing breakfast for my father who leaves everyday for work promptly at 7:00am. I am not a morning person, but today the smell of that coffee woke
me with ease. If this were any other day, I wouldn 't have woken so easily. For some reason this day didn 't really feel like every other day. Mymother,

I walk to school alone everyday, and that is okay with me because I enjoy the peace, and quite. As I walk I think about how I can't wait to get to
school, but I also think about how when I get to school I know that every minute that passes is a minute closer to me being back at home. It is a
shame that I think this way. It's a shame because I love my mother, and my father ruins that for me. In a perfect world I would go home to just my
mother, and wouldn 't have to worry about the hatred that my father endures towards my family, and for no reason at that.
With all these thoughts rushing through my head, I finally realize that I have been daydreaming so long that I am no longer walking, but I am at a halt in
front of the main entrance of my high school. I say to myself aloud, "If I go in that means I am roughly eight hours from being back at home."
Instead of entering the school I immediately turn around to walk back to my house. Nobody is there during the day so that means I can actually
enjoy being home without the worry of anyone belittling myself or my mother. My walking now turns into a light jog, as for once I am excited
about the idea of being home. Finally I am approaching the driveway to my house where I see a strange car parked in front of the garage door. The
car appeared to be an old van painted in a dark matte greenish color. The wheels looked worn as if they have maybe been changed once in the cars

The American Alligator is an amazing reptile, having survived almost unchanged since the time of the dinosaurs. Having been hunted almost for

There are two kinds of species of alligators. There is the American alligator and the Chinese alligator. Many people have a hard time telling the

Alligators are a ferocious predator. Alligators are carnivorousreptiles whose primary feeding time is usually at night. Small alligators will eat snails,
frogs, insects, and small fish. Larger gators will eat birds, fish, turtles, snakes, waterfowls, small mammals, and even smaller alligators.
The American alligator population is continued to diminish today. They are mainly threatened in the state of Florida. Loss, fragmentation, and
degradation of forests have been a major factors in the decline of the alligator population in this century, with illegal killing playing an increasingly
damaging role as alligators have become more vulnerable: no refugees remain safe from human penetration. Habitat loss remains a great danger,
particularly in state of Florida. A gator is prized for its hide and meat. The hide of the gator is considered fine and durable leather; used for belts,
watch bands, boots, wallets, purses, shoes, briefcases, and other leather items. The meat of alligator is considered a gourmet delicacy, low in fat and
high in protein. Not just the tail, but also all of the meat of the gator is edible, and sold in restaurants all throughout Florida. The price for the raw
meat is only about $5–$7 per pound. Poaching of alligator for sports and collection of body parts for showcases also destroyed their population. Since

Essay Growing Up
When I Grow Up..
"Being 'grown up' isn't as fun as the idea of growing up."
–AmberGrace Seguin
Remember when we were young and all we could think of was growing up and getting to do 'grownup' things? We spent our whole childhood
thinking of what we would do when we finally 'grew up', and here we are, almost completely grown up and we still haven't made up our mind of what it
is we will do when we grow up. We've painted this pretty little picture in our head of what it'll be like when we eventually do grow up, and when it
finally comes for the picture to be taken off the wall and put into action, it's not nearly as fun as creating the painting.

"The day the child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives
himself, he becomes wise." –Alden Nowlan As we continue to grow up, we learn that being grown up is not as we imagined it. We once convinced
ourselves that growing up was the goal to achieve, and life would be much better once we were in fact grown up. When we in fact do grow up, we
think back at our youth and laugh because we thought growing up was the most wondrous thing to accomplish, but now, more than ever, we crave
for our youth; for the days we would sit in the grass and daydream of what we are to become when we grow up; and finally for the days when life was
simple and we could imagine it any which way we wanted it and no one could do a thing about it.

"Nagging wives" have always been a problem with husbands. The thought of marriage frightens many people because of the "nagging wife" this has
been passed on from generation to generation. The many stories told by the very own family members of the husband and the wife arguing all day
long. Marriage, today, is not considered in many times a happy thing, some people think that there is nothing to look forward, in most cases because
men think that women will change on them and start "nagging" at everything.
Many times in life men do not think that women can do the same things that they can; whether it's picking up boxes or being president. There will
always be that "macho man" thought of the man being stronger than the woman. In many jobs women might do the exact same thing that men do
except men are getting paid more than women even if it is an insignificant amount, it happens in many places and even though many people
disapprove of it there are still jobs like that out there. And there are still employers who think that a woman should not be in the work force if so

In each half of an inning one team bats while the other plays the field. If the score is tied after nine innings are over then the game is continued
into extra innings and is concluded when one team is winning after an extra inning. These are the basic rules of baseball. THE FIELD AND
EQUIPMENT Baseball is played on a field, which usually covers about two acres. The field is divided into an infield and an outfield. These two
parts are considered fair territory and the rest of the field is considered foul. The infield is in the shape of a diamond and is 90 ft on each side. One
point of the diamond is home plate which batters hit from. The other three points are bases: first, second, and third base. In the middle of the
diamond is a pitchers mound which is slightly raised off the ground. The edges of the diamond from home plate to first base and home plate to
third base are the foul lines, which extend all the way to the wall in the outfield. Behind first base is right field, behind second base is called center
field, and behind third base is called left field. Fences are placed at the farthest limits in the outfield. In foul territory beyond the foul lines in the
infield are dugouts where players sit when they are not playing or waiting to bat. Baseball also consists of many pieces of equipment. Baseball
equipment includes the following: a hard ball which has a cork center and has a circumference of 9 in., a bat made out of wood or

Emotions Essay examples
Emotions No matter how hard you try, you cannot
control your emotions, only attempt to hide them.
Emotions influence every aspect of our lives, what we
do, what we say, and et cetera. All of our emotions,
from anger to insecurity, are influenced by several
factors, just as our lives are influenced by our
emotions (Gelinas, Emotions 35). First of all, it
causes problems when one does not trust himself, and
it shows up in many ways. Some people brag to call
attention to themselves, causing others to believe
that the egoistic person has a lot of self–respect.
Very often though, egotism can be an attempt to cover
up insecurity in a person who does not feel they will

Many factors influence anger. Most anger is
caused by a situation that makes one feel
uncomfortable (Licata 14). This uncomfortable feeling
could also be described as feeling threatened. Feeling
threatened could lead to angry feelings because a
threat can cause harm. Things that could make one feel
threatened include disapproval, betrayal, deprivation,
exploitation, manipulation, frustration, violence, and
humiliation (Gaylin 95). One has their own ways of
handling anger, most of which are unhealthy. Denial is
one way of handling anger by using self–deception. In
denial, one does not allow themselves to register a
feeling that is threatening in one way or another
(Gaylin 96). Bigotry is another way of handling anger.
"A person that is prone to anger must create an object
to be angry at. Therefore, the object of the anger is
not the cause of the bigot's pain, but the solution"
(Gaylin 114). Anger can sometimes turn into hate. Some
different terms for hate could be annoyance,
irritation, hostility, or maliciousness. Some of the
"symptoms" of hate include wanting to hurt, humiliate,
damage, destroy, threaten, and wanting to seek revenge
on someone. Some people try to justify their actions
by having the motive of wanting to destroy to rebuild
on a stronger foundation (Gelinas, Anger 12). There

Essay On Startups
Elearning For Startups: Accelerate Learning For Your Crew, Propagate Success For Your Company
More than half of all startups fail within the first few years of operation, with the primary causes being lack of knowledge and lack of experience. If
you're a small business owner or even a larger, well–financed startup, these statistics are terrifying. You pour your heart, soul, time and most of your
money into a company that has this constant dark cloud of "likely to fail" hanging over it. That kind of pressure is grueling and it doesn't make for a
very productive work environment. What if you could take the lack of knowledge and experience out of the equation for your business; thus, giving it a

How do you anticipate the future and therefore, prepare for it? If you can't predict markets, consumer trends and supply chain challenges, how can you
keep a business running? When should you scale and how fast should it happen? To scale or not to scale is a major hurdle for most startups and one
that can cost them everything if they don't get it right.
These and other soul–searching questions should give you a good idea of what you're lacking in terms of experience and education and provide the
platform for learning in the near future. These are pivotal questions you don't want to look back on with the answer "If only I knew then what I know
now". Know it now, to avoid many of the costly mistakes startups trip over.
Organize Your Resources
The budget for most startups isn't usually very large, but your need for education is; therefore, it's important to prioritize current spending and only
allocate resources to projects that will propel the company forward. Elearning can save you needed funds in a number of ways:
Travel: Even if your training facility is local, the expenses involved in transportation are considerable. Facilities And Instructors: With in–house

Adverbs are tools that give additional details about where, what, when, why and how. It makes sentence more interested and easy to understand. I will
explain three important parts of adverbs including definition, types, how to use them and little tips. We will start with the definition of adverbs.
Generally, adverbs are words that modify verb and adjective, give us more details about when, where, why, what and other more details of thesentence.
Kolln (1994) has mention that adverbs frequently end in –ly, but there are not guarantee that all words that end up with –ly will always be adverbs. The
words lovely, lonely, motherly, friendly, neighborly, for instance, are adjectives (p.3). In addition, Oxford dictionary (2013) explains that adverbs are
expressing manner, place, time or degree. Adverbs are originating form late middle English, the original Latinword call Adverbium from ad– 'to'
(expressing addition) + verbum 'word, verb' means word that expressing more detail. Next, we will analyze types of adverbs. There are 5 authors
that divided types of adverbs into different numbers, according to their knowledge. Quirk and Greenbaum (1993) explain that there are 5 kinds of
adverbs including Adverbs of Manner (slowly, quietly), Adverbs of Place (on the island, there), Adverbs of Frequency (everyday, often), Adverbs of
Time (before dark, early, now) and Adverbs of Purpose (to avoid hitting the rock, to get the best price). However, Adverbs of Purpose are not appearing

was really dark outside, but I was not scared at all, even though I was home alone. Now it was around ten at night and I had finished watching the
Halloween series. I turned my tv off and started playing really loud music on my speaker. I knew it was nighttime and the neighbors might complain,
but at the moment I didn't care about anything. I enjoy listening to depressing songs specially from Coldplay which gets me in the mood to cry. My
eyes began to close so I turned my speaker off as well as the light and I went to sleep. At last, a perfect day for me should be different from any
ordinary day, and should enjoy it like as if it was my last. I see a perfect day as not something outstanding, but more of like a lazy day. This day was
one of the best days I've ever had because it's been forever since I've taken a break. Many people might do something like this on a regular day, but for
me it was one of the days where I got to stay in bed, relax, and let all of the stress out. Days like this doesn't hurt and everyone has their own ideal day,

How to Be A Good Student
To become a success in life, we all need to learn to become a good student in every aspect of life. Becoming a good student takes much work and
self–discipline. There are many ways that a student can stand out from the rest of the class. These good students are distinguished by their attitude,
intellectual skills, consciousness, and achievement.
Attitude is primarily a genuine desire to learn and the will to do hard academic work to achieve understanding. It is also shown by how well you
apply yourself even to subjects in which you have little interest and how much you can achieve even when a teacher's style is not what you are used to.

Intellectual skills is (S–V Agr) another important aspect of becoming a good student. This skill includes the ability to read and understand, intelligent
use of resources, mathematical and logical skills, efficient study habits, and the ability to communicate clearly and fluently. Intellectual skills include
time management, exam strategies, study strategies, and goal setting.
Consciousness, or awareness, is another helpful aspect of becoming a good student. The good student must be aware of their (agr) surroundings and
know what is going on in the world around them. We must strive to relate what is happening around us to what we are learning. This should be
important to us because we should care about what is going on politically, academically, socially, and spiritually. Being aware and paying attention is a
good trait to continually learn and apply.
Achievement is demonstrated by successful application of understanding. This aspect includes using correct and confident knowledge, effective
communication, and continuanceing of education through out your life. Achievement gives you a sense of accomplishment and meaning. To become a
good student, this must be a goal that you wish to accomplish.

More than 2000 years have passed since humans discovered music. Music is an art of sound in time that expresses ideas and emotions in significant
forms through the elements of rhythm, melody, harmony, and color (anonymous, 2014). It started out as a simple striking of materials that produced
sounds and was later developed with the inventions of musical instruments such as stringed instruments. The development of music evolves from
prehistoric until the present period of time. Music has been very popular to people, not only to adults but also to teenagers and children. Its popularity
can be attributed to the components of music such as lyrics, genres, artists and specifically, being a big part of the present media. The researchers came

"Listening to music can have a tremendously relaxing effect on minds and bodies, especially slow, quiet classical music. This type of music can have
a beneficial effect on our physiological functions, slowing the pulse and heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and decreasing the levels of stress
hormones" (Collingwood, 2007). This proves that music can help in the physiological wellness of a person.
In this current industrialized world, teenagers are the most vulnerable factor of society, As teenagers, there are a lot of negative forces affecting them
such as confusion, pressure, stress, etc., that leads to delinquency. To prevent this from happening, they devise their own way of relieving stress. With
the fast phasing domination of media today, music is one of its successful outcomes that everyone listens to. Listening to music can serve as a stress
reliever to teenagers.
According to Psychology Today (2014), Stress is simply a reaction to a stimulus that disturbs our physical or mental equilibrium. People view stress as
something that is common, but according to the American Psychological Association (2014), 75 to 90 percent of all physician office visits are for

Examples Of Sentences
Just how do we start that perfect sentence? It can be a tough decision. Sentence beginnings are like first impressions, and we want to make sure they're
right. And while there's no single correct way to start a sentence, we need to vary them to ensure our writing doesn't get stale or boring.
So, what makes a bad sentence beginning anyway? Are there rules? Well, no, but let's look at some examples of how repeatedsimple sentence openings
can become stilted and tough to read. For example:
John went to the store. Anthony went with him. They bought food and drinks. They bought flowers for John's mother. The man at the cash register
smiled at them and gave them a discount. They returned home and put away the groceries.
What do all these sentence beginnings have in common? As we can see, each one consists of a noun followed by a verb. Unfortunately, these simple
sentences quickly become boring, decreasing the impact of our writing. Let's see what happens when we vary them a bit....show more content...
Smiling, the man at the cash register gave them a discount. Returning home, the two put the groceries away.
See how much better this flows? Here, we've left the simple noun–verb structure for the first sentence, but, in the second, we've used "smiling" as a
participial or transitional word. And in the third, we've emphasized the action of returning home, rather than the two boys.
Let's look at some other ways to rearrange simple sentence beginnings (e.g. common noun–verb constructions) and add some variety to our work.
Remember, our goal here is not only to minimize the use of simple sentence openings – it's to become better writers!

basically feel that I do not have to show leadership or take initiative to take on the responsibilities of a manager when in reality, I am not. One of
my weaknesses at home is time management. This is a weakness that I have had to struggle with since my daughter was born. It is hard for me to
try to juggle being a full time single parent, working a full time job and attending school full time. I always feel that there is never enough time to
accomplish my tasks whether it is household chores, work related or assignments for school. Most importantly I have to make sure that I am
readily available for my child at all times. In a Learning team, presentation skills are very important. I would have to say that Presentation Skills
would be one of my personal weaknesses in the Learning team. It is difficult for me at times to stand up in front of a room full of people and
present a project or conduct some sort of meeting. In order to do so, you have to have confidence that what you?re talking about is accurate and the
motivation to actually get up do it. My biggest fear of a presentation would be tripping and falling on my face or

  • 2. Essay About My English Class I can remember seeing that I had to take an English class my first semester of college. I was already overwhelmed with starting college, and having to write college essays made me get even more nervous. I sat down with my mom and decided to look at the English classes available, and I finally decided that I had to take an evening class to make it work in my schedule. The first day of English came and now looking back it was not as bad as I thought. It made me a better writer and be where I am today. It may have taken me some time to get where I am today, but at least I am on the right track. English Composition helped me realize that I am my own author and have strengths that I did not realize I had. When I first started college I did not know what to expect with an English class. I liked writing about topics that interested me, but high school did not allow me to do that. I took American History and we would have to write...show more content... I learned many techniques from my professor. He helped me realize that it is okay to have your own opinion as long as you back it up. He showed me that I am an author when I did not think I was. He also told us to read our essays out loud when we proofread, and I always did this technique before submitting all my essays. I can remember having to write my first essay and I was scared, because I felt like I had to get a good grade. I started thinking about what tools I could use to help me, and I decided to go to The Learning Center to help with my essay. When I went there they would make edits to my essay and then explain what I should change. The tutor noticed I used multiple choppy sentences and commas in spots there should not be. Sometimes I would even go twice to make sure I did not miss any minor mistakes. Going there helped me feel more confident as a writer and I learned from my mistakes. I had many helpful techniques from multiple people that shaped me into the writer I am Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Descriptive Essay About My Morning This morning I woke up, the same as everyday stretching my legs off my bed and onto the floor, my arms raised up grazing the ceiling. As any other day, I got out of bed and waltzed into the kitchen where I could smell the aroma of coffee being freshly brewed. My mother was up, bright and early fixing breakfast for my father who leaves everyday for work promptly at 7:00am. I am not a morning person, but today the smell of that coffee woke me with ease. If this were any other day, I wouldn 't have woken so easily. For some reason this day didn 't really feel like every other day. Mymother, and I have a decent relationship. You could say we have a normal mother daughter relationship comparable to anyone else. We go shopping, to ...show more content... I walk to school alone everyday, and that is okay with me because I enjoy the peace, and quite. As I walk I think about how I can't wait to get to school, but I also think about how when I get to school I know that every minute that passes is a minute closer to me being back at home. It is a shame that I think this way. It's a shame because I love my mother, and my father ruins that for me. In a perfect world I would go home to just my mother, and wouldn 't have to worry about the hatred that my father endures towards my family, and for no reason at that. With all these thoughts rushing through my head, I finally realize that I have been daydreaming so long that I am no longer walking, but I am at a halt in front of the main entrance of my high school. I say to myself aloud, "If I go in that means I am roughly eight hours from being back at home." Instead of entering the school I immediately turn around to walk back to my house. Nobody is there during the day so that means I can actually enjoy being home without the worry of anyone belittling myself or my mother. My walking now turns into a light jog, as for once I am excited about the idea of being home. Finally I am approaching the driveway to my house where I see a strange car parked in front of the garage door. The car appeared to be an old van painted in a dark matte greenish color. The wheels looked worn as if they have maybe been changed once in the cars lifetime, and the Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Having been hunted almost for extinction, this reptile has made an amazing comeback in recent years. Inhabiting almost every body of water in Florida. American alligator are not considered endangered species, but these harsh looking creatures are threatened. There are two kinds of species of alligators. There is the American alligator and the Chinese alligator. Many people have a hard time telling the difference between alligators and crocodiles. Alligators are related in the same family as the crocodile, but these two animals are very different. An alligator's upper jaw overlaps the lower jaw. Alligators have a broad snout...show more content... Alligators are a ferocious predator. Alligators are carnivorousreptiles whose primary feeding time is usually at night. Small alligators will eat snails, frogs, insects, and small fish. Larger gators will eat birds, fish, turtles, snakes, waterfowls, small mammals, and even smaller alligators. The American alligator population is continued to diminish today. They are mainly threatened in the state of Florida. Loss, fragmentation, and degradation of forests have been a major factors in the decline of the alligator population in this century, with illegal killing playing an increasingly damaging role as alligators have become more vulnerable: no refugees remain safe from human penetration. Habitat loss remains a great danger, particularly in state of Florida. A gator is prized for its hide and meat. The hide of the gator is considered fine and durable leather; used for belts, watch bands, boots, wallets, purses, shoes, briefcases, and other leather items. The meat of alligator is considered a gourmet delicacy, low in fat and high in protein. Not just the tail, but also all of the meat of the gator is edible, and sold in restaurants all throughout Florida. The price for the raw meat is only about $5–$7 per pound. Poaching of alligator for sports and collection of body parts for showcases also destroyed their population.

  • 5. Essay Growing Up When I Grow Up.. "Being 'grown up' isn't as fun as the idea of growing up." –AmberGrace Seguin Remember when we were young and all we could think of was growing up and getting to do 'grownup' things? We spent our whole childhood thinking of what we would do when we finally 'grew up', and here we are, almost completely grown up and we still haven't made up our mind of what it is we will do when we grow up. We've painted this pretty little picture in our head of what it'll be like when we eventually do grow up, and when it finally comes for the picture to be taken off the wall and put into action, it's not nearly as fun as creating the painting. "Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional." –Anonymous We all have the choice...show more content... "The day the child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives himself, he becomes wise." –Alden Nowlan As we continue to grow up, we learn that being grown up is not as we imagined it. We once convinced ourselves that growing up was the goal to achieve, and life would be much better once we were in fact grown up. When we in fact do grow up, we think back at our youth and laugh because we thought growing up was the most wondrous thing to accomplish, but now, more than ever, we crave for our youth; for the days we would sit in the grass and daydream of what we are to become when we grow up; and finally for the days when life was simple and we could imagine it any which way we wanted it and no one could do a thing about it.

  • 6. Feminism Essay examples Feminism Feminism is the belief that women should have economic political and social equality with men. This term also refers to a political movement that works to gain equality within a male and female relationship. In a male and female relationship both the roles of the male and female should be equal. Equal in many ways ten one: they should trust each other, share responsibilities, listen to one another, respect each other, and of course love one another equally. This type of relationship is not found now a days because of the many traditions which imply that women are inferior to men. They also imply that women should stay home all day watching soap operas, taking care of the children, and making the food for their tired husbands...show more content... "Nagging wives" have always been a problem with husbands. The thought of marriage frightens many people because of the "nagging wife" this has been passed on from generation to generation. The many stories told by the very own family members of the husband and the wife arguing all day long. Marriage, today, is not considered in many times a happy thing, some people think that there is nothing to look forward, in most cases because men think that women will change on them and start "nagging" at everything. Many times in life men do not think that women can do the same things that they can; whether it's picking up boxes or being president. There will always be that "macho man" thought of the man being stronger than the woman. In many jobs women might do the exact same thing that men do except men are getting paid more than women even if it is an insignificant amount, it happens in many places and even though many people disapprove of it there are still jobs like that out there. And there are still employers who think that a woman should not be in the work force if so home. Many feminist have been working to solve this problem and there are still people who are working to solve and change many more of these problems, and even though in some places it doesn't seem like it, feminism and feminists Get more content on HelpWriting.net

In each half of an inning one team bats while the other plays the field. If the score is tied after nine innings are over then the game is continued into extra innings and is concluded when one team is winning after an extra inning. These are the basic rules of baseball. THE FIELD AND EQUIPMENT Baseball is played on a field, which usually covers about two acres. The field is divided into an infield and an outfield. These two parts are considered fair territory and the rest of the field is considered foul. The infield is in the shape of a diamond and is 90 ft on each side. One point of the diamond is home plate which batters hit from. The other three points are bases: first, second, and third base. In the middle of the diamond is a pitchers mound which is slightly raised off the ground. The edges of the diamond from home plate to first base and home plate to third base are the foul lines, which extend all the way to the wall in the outfield. Behind first base is right field, behind second base is called center field, and behind third base is called left field. Fences are placed at the farthest limits in the outfield. In foul territory beyond the foul lines in the infield are dugouts where players sit when they are not playing or waiting to bat. Baseball also consists of many pieces of equipment.

  • 8. Emotions Essay examples Emotions No matter how hard you try, you cannot control your emotions, only attempt to hide them. Emotions influence every aspect of our lives, what we do, what we say, and et cetera. All of our emotions, from anger to insecurity, are influenced by several factors, just as our lives are influenced by our emotions (Gelinas, Emotions 35). First of all, it causes problems when one does not trust himself, and it shows up in many ways. Some people brag to call attention to themselves, causing others to believe that the egoistic person has a lot of self–respect.

This uncomfortable feeling could also be described as feeling threatened. Feeling threatened could lead to angry feelings because a threat can cause harm. Things that could make one feel threatened include disapproval, betrayal, deprivation, exploitation, manipulation, frustration, violence, and humiliation (Gaylin 95). One has their own ways of handling anger, most of which are unhealthy. Denial is one way of handling anger by using self–deception. In denial, one does not allow themselves to register a feeling that is threatening in one way or another (Gaylin 96). Bigotry is another way of handling anger.

In the meantime, while I was waiting for my food to get here I went to the kitchen to wash the dishes that I left in the morning. After my food got delivered I went back into my bed and started eating my orange chicken with rice. By that time, I was already in the fourth movie, all of a sudden it was really dark outside, but I was not scared at all, even though I was home alone. Now it was around ten at night and I had finished watching the Halloween series. I turned my tv off and started playing really loud music on my speaker. I knew it was nighttime and the neighbors might complain, but at the moment I didn't care about anything. I enjoy listening to depressing songs specially from Coldplay which gets me in the mood to cry. My eyes began to close so I turned my speaker off as well as the light and I went to sleep. At last, a perfect day for me should be different from any ordinary day, and should enjoy it like as if it was my last. I see a perfect day as not something outstanding, but more of like a lazy day.

I was keen to get there as my friend had something new for us to try. The noise in the pub was unbearable. There was loud, thumping music; disco lights, as bright as pulsars which permeated my eyelids and a cloud of smoke that pervaded the place. This didn't bother me though, as I was eager to meet my friend who had something different for us to try. I was apprehensive about trying it, but my friend assured me that he had done it before and that everything would be fine. On his instruction, I went up to the bar and ordered two glasses of water. "I hope you're not becoming tea total on me lad; you're responsible for half my business" I can remember the landlord saying. I felt very uneasy as I laughed with him. I returned to the table where my friend and I were sitting with the glasses of water. As I sat down he slid his hand, face down, across the table and nodded in affirmation.

Music is an art of sound in time that expresses ideas and emotions in significant forms through the elements of rhythm, melody, harmony, and color (anonymous, 2014).

This type of music can have a beneficial effect on our physiological functions, slowing the pulse and heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and decreasing the levels of stress hormones" (Collingwood, 2007). This proves that music can help in the physiological wellness of a person. In this current industrialized world, teenagers are the most vulnerable factor of society, As teenagers, there are a lot of negative forces affecting them such as confusion, pressure, stress, etc., that leads to delinquency.

  • 22. Examples Of Sentences Just how do we start that perfect sentence? It can be a tough decision. Sentence beginnings are like first impressions, and we want to make sure they're right. And while there's no single correct way to start a sentence, we need to vary them to ensure our writing doesn't get stale or boring. So, what makes a bad sentence beginning anyway? Are there rules? Well, no, but let's look at some examples of how repeatedsimple sentence openings can become stilted and tough to read. For example: John went to the store. Anthony went with him. They bought food and drinks. They bought flowers for John's mother. The man at the cash register smiled at them and gave them a discount. They returned home and put away the groceries. What do all these sentence beginnings have in common? As we can see, each one consists of a noun followed by a verb. Unfortunately, these simple sentences quickly become boring, decreasing the impact of our writing. Let's see what happens when we vary them a bit....show more content... Smiling, the man at the cash register gave them a discount. Returning home, the two put the groceries away. See how much better this flows? Here, we've left the simple noun–verb structure for the first sentence, but, in the second, we've used "smiling" as a participial or transitional word. And in the third, we've emphasized the action of returning home, rather than the two boys. Let's look at some other ways to rearrange simple sentence beginnings (e.g. common noun–verb constructions) and add some variety to our work. Remember, our goal here is not only to minimize the use of simple sentence openings – it's to become better writers! Example #1 The dog barked with great Get more content on HelpWriting.net

I am certain that because of my strengths, I am good at what I do however; I do have weaknesses that I have to overcome and improve. My personal weakness at work is lack of leadership. Currently I am in a position in which I do not possess the title of management. As a result, I basically feel that I do not have to show leadership or take initiative to take on the responsibilities of a manager when in reality, I am not. One of my weaknesses at home is time management. This is a weakness that I have had to struggle with since my daughter was born. It is hard for me to try to juggle being a full time single parent, working a full time job and attending school full time. I always feel that there is never enough time to accomplish my tasks whether it is household chores, work related or assignments for school. Most importantly I have to make sure that I am readily available for my child at all times. In a Learning team, presentation skills are very important.
