Do the Right Thing

read, I read this one more recently than the other (The 5th Wave). I decided to do my project on this one because the arguments the author made were relatable to our world today, clear, well thought out and still fresh in my…

believe is right or wrong. For most this is an easy thing to do and most problems normally don’t make a difference to other people anyway. Sometimes it isn’t that easy such as problems like what it takes to be the man of a situation. Sometimes it works out but most of the time it does not. Most would like to believe that people always do the right thing and not based on what society thinks. Everyone has wanted one thing but ended up doing another simply because it was not the normal thing to do…

to be an endless nightmare. Martino got up to get a drink of water but fell right back in bed after he saw…

How could there be no reports filed after what I had witnessed? I observed a man pull and swing an inmate to her knees! How could this clash not be considered the use of force? Questioning this sergeant’s authority is not something that I desired to do. Especially this particular sergeant, this RC sergeant had a reputation for not adhering to the rules, not reporting the use of force and creating the Greenwall in her unit. Standing there for what felt like five minutes, sweat beading on my…

understand that when he's told to tell a story from the pictures, he thinks he's lying and tries to tell a story with his uncle and sister which doesn't work. Process report five I'm feeling excited for Charlie because he got picked like he wanted. But I do fear for Charlie because he could revert back after the surgery because it has never been tested on humans. This is my journal entry for pages 11 through 18. My thoughts on 11 through 16 I'm thrilled that the procedure is happening and…

Beloved and caring after her as she hoped to be able to provide and do for all of her children. When Mr. Bodwin arrives, Sethe, in mistaking him as Schoolteacher, “flies. The ice pick is not in her hand; it is her hand” (309). Instead of attacking her children this time, she instead changes her target to the person attacking them. In doing so, she realizes and makes up for her mistake before and hopes to do the right thing the right way this time. Through this change, one can see how much Sethe…

Requiring national service to be completed by law would be overwhelming disaster for our society regardless of how long it would be for. This is because helping people should stem from a deep desire within one 's own heart and not from needing to do so because of a lawbook. It also creates a lapse in somebody 's year where they might otherwise be attending school or working full-time to provide for a family. Finally, because there isn 't an overwhelming need for so many volunteers in the first…

is the magnitude of the foot print you leave behind. It is about touching the hearts of the people around you, helping others when they are in need of guidance. Actions will always be worth more than a piece of paper. Bob Wager inspired me to do great things with my life. In 8 years Martin has went from being a nobody to being one of the top 25 teams in the nation and still rising! He did something as glorious as this by touching the hearts of his players, and made them see the same vision as…

Pride, a simple word, yet a variety of meanings to different people. Pride seems to encompass our daily lives, impacting our decisions. For many pride runs their lives because they care too much about how others view them, instead of what’s right. Correspondingly, with this idea, Sophocles asserts that the only crime is pride and that we must stop our wrong and fix it. This idea by Sophocles is valid due to the fact that for various people pride runs their life and influences their decisions.…

day we are born, until the day we die, we are taught and held responsible for being responsible of ourselves. We must consider this unwritten, but ever so powerful code that applies to our daily lives and interactions at all times. We need to do what is right and take action even when no one is looking. As students, parents, children, teachers, friends, and family, we all must maintain a personal responsibility of ourselves as we serve the community we are part of. Rules and laws are in place…
