Tell me about you:

My name is Rachelle. I'm currently at University of Memphis Lambuth studying in my second semester of nursing. I am Social Chair for the Student Nurses' Association. I've always been fascinated in the human brain and why it works the way it does, and what happens when it isn't working. Following taking care of my diabetic grandfather, I always knew I wanted to be a nurse, and I have overcome many obstacles to get here. When I earn my degree, I want to be working on this floor. If I should summarize myself, I would say I am a leader, responsible, compassionate and very detail-oriented, though sometimes I can be too hard on myself to strive for perfection. I switched from the law field to healthcare because I want a career with... Continue reading "Passionate Nursing Student Seeking Neuro Floor Position" »

I'm a better person because of you.

You cast a spell on me that can't be broken.

You drive me wild.

You fill my heart.

You wake my world.

You rock my world.

The thought of you brings a smile to my face.

You're the one I've always wished for.

Hello, my name is Jose...

I would invoke a car that its body was rubber or some material of that style, since if you strike a blow, it would not break or bollaría the car. I would sell this car as a crash car because it will never bump because the material in which it is made would absorb the blows. It would also be safer for the driver and his wallet. The bad thing about this car would be very ugly outwardly.

Plastic surgery has significantly increased among teenagers. Nowadays, countless people are opting for this kind of surgery to fulfill their dream of improving their physical appearance.

Personally, I believe that you cannot expect plastic surgery to solve all problems. Plastic surgery will not make you a different person. Moreover, surgery can be addictive. The compulsion to change one's body is often a symptom of deeper mental instability because beauty standards change over time.

Underaged people tend to follow trends and ask surgeons to make them look like the latest famous star whenever there is a change. Teenagers usually make the decision to undergo plastic surgery without considering the risks. Most of them are too immature to think about...

Part One. This Hard Land

In the first part of the book, De León discusses the steps that were taken to result in the system, 'Prevention Through Deterrence,' that is in place today to prevent migrants from coming into America. He also expands upon the ideas of the hybrid collectif and 'Prevention Through Deterrence' by arguing that the United States deliberately funnels migrants through the Sonoran Desert so that various human and nonhuman actants do the 'brutal work' for Border Patrol. He also uses the phrase bare life to describe those that have died and their death means nothing. This phrase is used to describe many migrants who lost their lives while attempting to cross. De León notes how there are very few posters set up in Mexico that... Continue reading "Unveiling the Truth: Migrant Journeys and Border Realities" »

The book I have read is called The Great Gatsby and its author is Francis Scott Fitzgerald. The Great Gatsby is set in New York City, representing a very social environment. The most important characters are Jay Gatsby, Nick Carraway, Jordan Baker, and Tom Buchanan. The most interesting thing about this book is how Gatsby pretended for a long time that he was a millionaire.

Nick Carraway moves to a bungalow in West Egg, a Long Island neighborhood, to study the bond business in New York. Nick is invited by Daisy, his cousin, to come to his house in East Egg, an aristocratic neighborhood on Long Island. Tom Buchanan, Daisy's husband, whom he has met at Yale.
