Never would they have imagined going to school let alone attending college but because of them I was able to attend school, graduate high school, and attend college. Because of them I had the amazing opportunity to be born in one of the greatest countries in the world and study to become anything or anyone I wanted to be. Because of them and with the help of the Clark Construction Field Scholarship I am able to pursue a degree in Special Elementary education with a minor in Human services and speech pathology and audiology. Without being awarded the scholarship for the past two years my parents and I wouldn’t be able to afford tuition and I wouldn 't be able to pursue a degree. I am not sure what the future may hold for me
Have you ever wondered which native tribe had a stronger empire, Aztec or Inca? If you have ever wondered, then I will show you that Aztec had a stronger empire because of the tribute they got and stronger religion. I will argue that the Aztec used their religion to expand their empire better than the Inca because they sacrifice people in public for their gods which to me that's like showing no mercy The similarities between Inca and Aztec to indicate they both used religion to justify the power of their leaders.
We came to a place where we had no relatives near us, and had to walk through a journey of the unknown. To me, Taiwan became my home. My parents sent me to an international school ever since kindergarten all the way up to my senior year. My father worked for a Christian publishing company and was the reason why our family moved to Taiwan as missionaries. Taiwan was foreign to us, and with no knowledge of the language, we

Upon his birth I knew I was accountable to another human and my passion for teaching was reignited. Despite all the odds my husband and I are still married today
Coming from a low income family, living in a small town in India, I learned early on about struggling and surviving those struggles. I watched my parents working day and night to provide for electricity, pay for our monthly school fees so my sister and I can have a better education, and for the future they wished upon for their children. To further enhance this vision, my father decided for the family and I to immigrate to the US. Everything was different in the sense that I changed schools, learned a new language, had to make new friends, and learned the different culture. I had to adapt to a whole new world, which was a little difficult at 6 years old
The purpose of a dyad paper is for two people to connect to one another to become better listeners and to work on becoming empathetic. For this assignment I chose Nikki as a partner. Both of us agreed that we would stick around in the classroom since it was a comfortable environment for the two of us to speak freely with little distraction. When speaking with Nikki I think I perceived what she said very well.

Katniss Everdeen, Luke Skywalker, and Tris Prior were teenagers when they first met their mentors; I, however, was born knowing mine. Since I was born, my mother has been my mentor. I’ve never thought of her as a mentor until now, but reflecting back upon my life I can see how she’s shaped my journey. I’m not a hero; I’m no Katniss or Batman. I’ve never had to overcome adversity or challenge the government.
When I was a child about 12 years old, I did not recognize that obesity was such a serious problem to me because it did not affect my life too much, and I never thought about losing weight before. However, with eating much more food and did not do any exercises, I was more and more fat. Until I was 100 pounds overweight in 18 years old, my parents probably sensed that I had have to lose weight because obesity would cause many diseases which harmed health. Therefore, my parents enforced me to lose weight. (to live better or..)
Normally I’m not one to talk of my issues. I felt that they came from a place of weakness, and I never wanted to be perceived as weak. Instead, I’ve always been known as the kind of person who could crack a joke, make others smile, and always be there to help an individual in need. Couple these aforementioned positive things with my grades, and people assumed that my life was in pristine condition. However, no one knew of the problems I dealt with personally.
In a world that idolizes technological advancement, it is easy to rely on it for almost everything. We go to work and school online, we shop online, and we socialize online, amongst other things. We’ve even implemented technology into basic human necessities. Smoke detectors, alarm systems, and even ventilation systems can now be controlled with apps. However, I believe that digital technology is not something we should implement to that extent.
