__Enthusiasm Essay__

I enjoy learning about cooking and science. I love learning how to cook for many reasons. One would be because I love to eat. The second thing is that when I get older and I get married I will already know how to cook and I will have the skills needed as a wife and a mother to feed my family healthy meals every day. Also cooking is very soothing and mind calming. I try to learn more about cooking by trying new things at home such as printing out recipes and challenging myself to make the food come out like the picture. The second thing I like to learn about is science. I try to learn more about science by taking extra science classes in school. I currently have taken in high school, physical science, biology honors, marine science honors, chemistry honors and anatomy and physiology. I challenge myself by taking the honors courses instead of just the basics. I participate in a nursing assisting class which helps me to participate further in science because it is all about the human body sciences.

__John Donne Essay__

‘’Meditation 17’’ was written by John Donne in 1624. The song “I am a Rock” was written by Paul Simon and performed in 1965. Although these two works were written centuries apart, they share imagery and the use of speaker but they differ by language style and ideas. Both speakers speak about the same things but they have very different ideas about them. For example, John Donne says ‘’ No man is an island,” and he says is everyone is “a piece of a continent, a part of the main” to illustrate that all mankind is connected. Paul Simon says ‘’I am a rock,’’ meaning that he is alone and isolated from the world. Simon uses the imagery of books as he uses his” books and my poetry to protect” himself. Donne, however, uses a book, to illustrate the unity of man because mankind is “of one author, and is one volume.” He is saying that we are all “a piece of the continent”, we are all like little pieces of dirt and rock, some rocks are bigger than others which symbolizes there importance in the world but at the same time we are all equal because we all come together to form this continent. Also both works are speaking of man to man. In ‘’I am a rock’’ Paul is speaking of not wanting to be a part of other people and being hurt and isolating himself from the world. He says ‘’ I have my books and my poetry to protect me.’’ In ‘’Meditation 17’’ John speaks of how we are all part of a book, the author is God, basically saying that when something happens it should affect everybody, because we are all part of one man, all pieces of God. As you can see they both are speaking of books. They differ because Paul is saying how his books protect him against the world and John is saying that we are all part of a book, all of mankind. And that God is our protector, our author. These two works are alike and different in many ways. Both authors speak about man to man, but they have many different ideas about man to man which are expressed throughout this essay.

__//**Focus Essay**//__

I feel that it would be a good and bad idea at the same time to make these new decisions. They were right about saying that it would make Florida students more competitve internationally becuasue when you look at students from up north and then students from Florida we are at the bottom of the charts. I feel that students should be pushed more from the start. As early as elementry school students should be introduced to sciences such as biology and physics an then when students get to high school they will already have an idea of what they are doing and will not be failing these classes. Elementry students are so focused on reading and math that when they get to high school and science and other harder classes count they are failing them. Students should be introduced to all classes from the start. Biology and chemistry should be elective classes in middle school so that once in high school the graduation rate will not drop. I dont feel that we should be changing high school ciriculum only. I feel that it should go all the way down to elementry school students.

Character- Me being the eldest of three girls forces me to take full resposibility in a lot of situations. When I was twelve I moved out of my grandmothers house and into my mothers house. Since my mom worked a lot and there was not a father figure in the house I was forced to become mom. While mom was at work I cooked, cleaned, gave baths, did hair, laudnry, u name it and it was on my agenda to do. While helping my little sisters with their homework I tried to stay focused on me also. At one point I was falling behind in school because I put my sisters as my number one focus in life and not school and the things that I now see were just as important. My sisters teachers used to apluad my dedication and loyalty to my sisters. I felt an obligation to them. They were my responsibility as a big sister. I tried to instal in my sisters along the way how to be honest and loyal to the people that love them. I tried to teach them how to take responsibility for themselves so that when im gone i know that they will be okay. Stewardship- My family is very culturally diverse. So i experiance cultural differences everyday. My mother is german and my dad is cuban and jamaican. There is a big cultural difference between the two house holds. For example when I am at my dads house your only supposed to speak when spoken to. Everything is yes mam no mam, yes sir no sir. But when at my moms house things are a lot less tense. You can say a joke without getting grounded or scolded for not staying in your place. Another example would be me an my two best friends. We were all raised in different types of homes. My friend rose is half mexican and half puerto rican. In her family girls are supposed to be very conservitave and in the house girls. In my family it is okay for a girl to go out sometimes. My other best friend Shala is half black an white, her mom is black and her dad is white. So in her house hold her mom is the dominant of what Shala is allowed to do and what she is not allowed to do. In my house that would be the mans role. In the relationship with us three sometimes the cultural differences become a challenge as far as understanding goes. But just like my family with love comes acceptance which is what i have learned to do in the relationships of all kinds of different cultures and backgrounds.
