In Praise of Margins ESSAY As we reach adulthood and have a professional career, there are far greater demands and responsibilities we need to commit in order to “function” right in our economical society today. With the stress that goes along with those responsibilities, we just can’t help but to sometimes take time off from everything we do in our society and spend it on things that are “marginal”. In Ian Frazier’s article “In Praise of Margins”, he reveals the value of marginal things and defines it as an un-purpose, free-form aimless activity that don’t quite work out, and though it doesn’t account for themselves in the economic world, it is important and necessary for our lives. For young Ian Frazier and his friends, their marginal place were in the woods. It was a place where they “can try out odd ideas” (Frazier p54) and do whatever they feel like doing, without having to worry about what others may think.
But because of today’s economy work for those fresh out of college may be not so easy to find. Does it even matter what degree? Or does it effect everyone? In today’s economy, the importance to choose careers and majors wisely remains important. The job market has become very competitive.
Even if 5:00a.m. seems too early, I know that school is important for my future and also if I plan on doing that traveling while I’m in the military. I have bad days and I have good days, the bad days seem to outweigh the good days more than any but as long as I keep striving on harder than what I have been and those bad days will start looking up! My bad days are when I know my grades have dropped to where they shouldn’t be and I get mad at myself for letting them slip into that dark place of failing grades. My parents push me to be the best that I can be, which sometimes I don’t care what they are saying, don’t they understand that 9th grade is hard?
What she’s trying to get out of this essay is her opinion on attending college and makes you also question the thought of college. Caroline Bird mainly is trying to get out that we spend so much money on attending college when we could use that money for other things. In the text she even involves numbers and what we could be doing instead of investing our money in college. College is one of the most expensive expenses you will ever face in life. They make money of our tuition, books, dorming, and transportation just to name a few things.
Understand that your grades could be in jeopardy if you don’t manage your time correctly, because without a doubt the manager will probably ask for you to stay later. Knowing your options and really looking into them never hurts, and could restore the issue of homework being done because other places don’t have the demand as much as a Mcjob does for more workers. Michele closes with a statement from Prof. Bishop, “The goal is to not get kids to stop working, its to get
While interacting with Miss Maudie, Scout learns that you should always find the positive in bad situations. Scout notices that Miss Maudie was not affected by burning of her house, and gets even more confused when Miss Maudie was glad to “have more room for [her] azaleas” (97). Scout did not understand why Miss Maudie is more concerned about having “the finest yard in Alabama” (97) with a smaller house at first. However, Scout learns that no matter how bad things may get look on the brighter side and see how something positive could come out of it later on. Although Scout and Jem both think Atticus is old and boring, Scout learns and important life lesson, of being courageous and taking on challenges that others wouldn’t from him.

The physical toll is based on the change in schedule, the additional homework, the late nights and long walks to and from campus. There is always a physical change when one’s routine is altered. Trying to balance food, and sleep needs appropriately will be the key to making sure the new experience doesn’t affect me physically. It is easy to see that financial cost for college isn’t the only cost to a person. The benefits out-weigh the strain whether financial, physical, or mental if your mind is in a positive place and you are willing and ready to take on your new experience and have a successful
Say Hello to my Little Study Buddy Most adults will arguably tell someone college is ‘the time of your life’ but what they forget to mention is the hardships and stresses it actually brings. There is a whole new curriculum, much harder than a high school one, and for most people their first time living on their own. One must learn more material in a shorter length of time from difficult assignments that will require a majority of one’s leisure time. The harsh reality is that students without parental supervision will unfortunately want to waste their free time doing more entertaining things than cramming their brains with gratuitous amount of new statistics, formulas and information. Students will usually opt out of performing homework
