The best assignments are always the ones where you can use tv shows or movies. Had to do one explaing the four parenting styles in a media of my choosing and of course I chose South Park! šŸ˜€

I was just like FINALLY MY OBSESSIONS COME IN HANDY. Though not the first time I had to do assignments like these. Always fun when the professors let us use photos or gifs too ^^

Shout out to mentally ill people who dropped out of school

– shout out to the kids who wereĀ ā€œso brightā€ andĀ ā€˜heading somewhereā€ and had to drop out because school was too much to handle along with mental illness

– shout out to the kids who struggled to get where they got before they dropped out

– shout out to the kids who tried and tried and tried and still couldnā€™t finish

you arenā€™t unintelligent because you dropped out of school, you arenā€™t a delinquent or a bad person because you dropped out of school, just because you did what you had to doesnā€™t make you a bad person

Lot’s of people say to take your core classes at community college then transfer to a major university. How does this work? What kind of degree would you get and would it be from the community college or the major college?

collegesmarts:

Associateā€™s degrees are awarded by community colleges and
Bachelorā€™s degrees are awarded by four year colleges. Four year universities
also offer advanced degrees (Masterā€™s, Doctorateā€™s, etc.) that you can work
towards after completing your bachelorā€™s.

There are a few ways
that people approach community college:

  1. They are completely undecided on a
    major, so they try out a bunch of random classes for a year or two until they
    figure out what they want to do. Then they transfer all their credits to a four
    year school. They probably have a few major specific courses, credits for their
    core curriculum, and electives on their transcript, but they also probably have
    a good amount of credits that will end up not counting towards their degree at
    all.
  2. They donā€™t know exactly what they
    want to major in, but they at least have it narrowed down. They sample classes
    from a few related majors and work on their core curriculum. When they are
    ready to transfer to a four year school they have all or most of their core
    classes complete, have met most of the prerequisites for their major specific
    courses, and have a few extra credits (some of which might count as electives).
  3. They know exactly what they want
    to major in so they complete their associateā€™s degree. They graduate from the
    community college and when they transfer to a four year college they are
    usually core curriculum complete, have taken all/most of the prerequisites for their
    major specific classes, and have met their elective requirements.

In order to earn your
associates, you have to take more than just your core classes. You need to
know what you want to major in and complete courses in that subject, as well as
take elective courses.

If you take a few classes at community college, but donā€™t
complete your associateā€™s degree, when you transfer youā€™ll just have one degree
from the four year school after you complete your bachelorā€™s.

College hack: When your professor passes around a sign-up sheet for projects, group work, or research, choose dates nearer to the beginning of the school year, the sooner the better. The professor will grade you more leniently, you will have more energy since school will have just started, and you wonā€™t be bogged down with midterms or finals for other classes. It seems like more work, but I swear by this tactic, it will save your nerves and your grades.

So, I had to write this poem for my Humanities class – Answering both or just one of these two questions – What doesĀ your particular heritage say are the most important things forĀ you to remember? What doĀ you think are the most important things for us to remember to keep the twenty-first-century American community alive and functioning?

And of course I chose my heritage and came up with this poem. It also had to have a structure to Joy Harjoā€™s “Remember” poem.Ā 

Hope u guys like the poem!!!!

Remember the blood and land,

which you carry in your veins

Remember the struggle of your people

And of your parents,

How they struggled and fought for a better life

Remember our hands that have upheld their world

The forces we have fought against

The discrimination we have endured

Yet, remember how we stand tall and strong

like the eagle on our flag,

With pride we will spread our wings

and conquer, we will not be tamed

Remember, ours is the revolution we fight

the pride of our ancestors blood

Remember together we stand,

Oh brothers and sisters of mine,

Unity is white,

with the great land we built

Remember, our God who sees us through

day and night

Remember who we are

Remember who you are

Remember the pride of your people

and of yourself

The eagle who eats the snake,

Victory is ours forevermore
