Getting To Know Someone New Meeting people for the first time has always been a struggle for me. I’ve always worried about what they are thinking or what they might say when I leave their presence. Meeting Bret Grass has helped me overcome that fear a little bit. He has taught me to be myself and not worry about what others think about me. Bret Grass has introduced himself to us as a big theatre person.
My confidence plays a big role in the person I am today. Freshman year was based on hard work and trying new things. This taught me to be in control. The work was not going to get done for me so to succeed I was the one who had to push myself and take over. Being a part of drill team has helped me with control by helping others in learning routines or chants with taking charge when others do not.
Fighting is never the answer. Greasers have always had it the hard way but when they stick together things turn out to be okay. (compound sentence) They all have hearts of stone. (metaphor) They have to deal with stereotypes and they never fit in. They do not have families that care about them or want them.
Of course management is always communicating through the proper chain of command and then training the staff under them as to the changes that are occurring and providing reason behind the changes. We are always recruiting for people that are a good fit in our culture, but to be honest as long as someone can smile and make eye contact, the rest can be taught as it’s considered a cultural behavior. Of course, right now I have one that hasn’t been able to perform for quite some time, even though he follows the behaviors, he isn’t self-motivated enough to accomplish it all. Therefore, he will be leaving us soon. This structure is very successful for our organization in training and creating the culture that we want.
“ It was not a great relationship, we never got along, He was a very strict person, never really showed emotions. It was as if he never was there for me when I needed him. I don’t like to talk about him.” Okay, so then let’s move on. Tell me how was your relationship with victor? Can we consider him your best friend growing
Like most, my life is always changing and things do not always work out as planned. I think it is important to remember to stay in charge especially when you are down. For me, when I am down, that is when I am most susceptible to be influenced by others or my surroundings. I do not really agree though when the book discusses using this map for “designing the rest of your life” (Life Launch pg 48). To me, that sounds too much like a perfect world and like we all have enough time to sit down and plan everything out and then
I learned humility through life struggles that have shown me that people who are arrogant and boastful aren’t really liked. I am a caring person I care for everyone and want to see the best out of everyone. If there is anything I can do to help someone be a better person than they already are I will do so. Caring for other people just seems to come natural to me. I learned to stay strong and never allow my fear to limit me.
I am a lifelong learner so I will never say I have a mastery of any skill as there is always something new to be learned, or changes made to existing skills. I can say that when it comes to new concepts and ideas I try my best with the tools that I have acquired over the years to effectively use critical thinking when formulating a persuasive argument. This class has given me new tools as well as shed more light on the existing ones I have already acquired. I wasn’t able to get feedback on week 9’s
Lennie, on the other hand, has obvious mental problems and cannot take responsibility for even his own actions, and requires George’s guidance to keep him safe. In the entire novel, there are character examples of both irresponsibility, such as Curley and Lennie; and examples of responsibility, such as Slim and George. Sadly, not everyone is rightfully responsible, even in the fictional world. The majority of significant characters in this story have a person or thing that they need to protect or take care of, like George to Lennie, but not all of them took proper responsibility. The greatest act of failed responsibility in the novel, Curley’s neglect towards his wife, was a continuing plot line through the book.
While these three classes may seem very basic and generic, a student definitely needs these classes to help and guide them throughout their college career. Speech is something that everyone does every day in his or her daily
