A little social drinking is not a terrible thing, but drinking turns deadly when people treat it as a sport and try to “out drink” others. Or when people drink solely to be drunk and are not happy with themselves sober. Looking at this case from the point of view of a potential fraternity member it saddens me to see that incidents like this actually happen. A big reason why I am attempting to join a fraternity is because of the respect they have shown me and I know they would never put me in a situation that would make me uncomfortable. In the case of Benjamin Wynne I believe he was attempting to join a fraternity for all the wrong reasons and the fact that he chose drinking and wasn’t responsible enough to limit
She’s a fighter who’s determined to actualize her dream to go on Junior term abroad and she won’t let this impediment dissuade her from pursuing any of her dreams. My battle with depression wasn’t as dramatic as her’s, however we both suffered severe emotional turmoil. I found it hard to accept that something was wrong, I was still subscribing to the notion that it’s all in my head, thinking that I could easily switch it all off if I tried hard enough. I did try, and it didn’t work. Telling my parents was also a problem, much like Anna who took five years before admitting to her mother that she needed professional help.
During my first week of college, I made the poor and juvenile decision to run away from the police. Not only did I run, but also when I was caught they found my fake ID in my wallet. The night began as an innocent ritual, but escalated into something very dangerous and wrong very quickly. I ran from something that police would not have even been mad about. It is never a good idea to carry a fake ID or run from the cops because of the many dangers (Potentially Fatal) that stray along with these acts.
“The whole disaster with Dorothy Giddens made me realize that I wasn’t anywhere close to being smooth with girls, not so much because I was ugly but because I was to chicken to ever say anything to a girl.” he said. Manny talked about this situation with his friend Frankie, who decided that joining a gang would be the best solution to the issue. The next day, Frankie introduced Manuel to the gang. “I felt really uncomfortable with the group, they were the complete opposites of me, I didn’t think I would get to do what I really joined a gang for, make out with girls," Manny said. Manuel had to take an initiation to test his courage; he could either sissy out or have Mondo think he was brave enough to stand the punishment.
If people had an opportunity to make money without going to college, they would take that opportunity, no doubt! Top of the line high school basketball players are not allowed to go straight to the NBA. In order to enter the NBA draft, high school players have to attend one year of college; this rule cheats the player out of immediate money, holds the player back in their careers, impacts the colleges, increases risk of injury to the player, and most other sports don’t have a rule like this. This rule is preposterous and needs to be taken away. No goodness comes out of the rule, so what is the point of it?
Before my husband die, he got cleaned but it was to late for him. The behavior and mentality of drug addicts and alcoholics is wholly irrational until individual understand that they are completely powerless over their addiction and unless they have structure help, they have no hope. Matt and my husband , I think try very hard to stop their addiction. I will give some of the reason : For individuals with a difficult life, sometimes using drugs and alcohol acutually makes life seem better. 2.
But in my opinion, it could have been prevented. If the parents were not so careless about their children, they would have discovered all the illegal actions they were doing and all of the explosives they were assembling. Once the shooting commended, the police were very late in arriving to the scene. Upon arrival they were very unresponsive and did not react well at all. They should have taken the school under
In my opinion, I don’t think that this law would be beneficial to anyone and it would not work out in the end. Document 2 is about an exotic danger who accused three Duke University lacrosse players of rape, sexual assault and kidnapping at a party. The three players were innocent but there’s not doubt that a lot of underage drinking was apparent that night which impaired the judgement of those 3 boys. “College and university presidents generally agree that binge and underage drinking are the single greatest problems facing their schools, in large part because of all the bad behavior— including rape — that results from excessive and acute drinking on campus”(2). In college, binge drinking is always a problem and the drinking age of 21 is considered a “joke”.
But no matter what, I don’t think that I ever could forgive a cheater. For me, I would always wonder if that person would do it again, and I could never forget a betrayal like that. Even if someone falls in love in someone else, that person should always end the relationship before doing anything else. But once a cheater, always a cheater isn’t something I do believe in when it comes to every person. I believe people have stereotypes for different reasons some come from the way you grow up are the way their live their life, but after reading the articles about stereotyping has lasting negative impact.
My parents are very strict and don’t want me getting into trouble. They fear I will do something inappropriate with guys, do drugs, or drink. I sit there in anger and think about how different things will be once I’m out of the house and doing what I want to do. It seems like it would be so nice not having anyone controlling me. Then reality sits in, if I want them to have no control over me that means I need to pay for everything, especially college.
