Evaluating Lady Macbeth

Dear Mrs. Macbeth,

I'm sorry to inform you that you were highly diagnosed to be paranoid, narcissistic, and antisocial. Symptoms of paranoia are: unsupported doubts of friends and associates, maintains unfounded suspicions regarding the fidelity of a spouse or significant other, and are reluctant to confide in others due to a fear that information may be used against him/her. Treatments is to use psychoanalytic psychotheapy or to have an injection of insulin. Symptoms of being narcisstic: extreme self-importance, inability to empathize with others and heightened sensitivity to criticism. Treatments for this disorder are psychoanalytic psychotherapy, group, family, couples therapy, as well as cognitive-behavioral therapy. Symptoms of being antisocial: lack of feeling guilty of wrong-doing and disregard for personal safety or the safety of others. There is very little treatment for this disorder but therapy may be used if told to do so. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Lorainne Medina

Research Question

Democrats wants to reduce taxes and their spending if Republicans refuse to raise taxes on the rich people. They think that the rich should pay their fair share of taxes for balance, so that it's just not the poor or middle class people who pay most out of their own pockets compared to the wealthy. On the other hand, Republicans response to the Democrats is they they'll raise everyone's income tax and reduce their spending on the military. Meaning that, they'll get more money out of the people, but they'll spend less on the military. I found this information on an article written on a new's website and it also stated that a deal or agreement has to made between the two sides.

I found that using the time and looking for related searches was very useful. Instead of giving me information that was very recent or new I tried to look for info from the past year and it gave me different websites. The minus sign didn't work out so well for me, even if I took out words I didn't want. It gave me totally different information about the fiscal cliff. Using OR and the minus sign were new to me but it didn't really help with what kind of information I was looking for even when I tried to type in different combinations of words. I would most definitely use the time and the different categories to do my researcha and I would try using the minus sign again to see what results I would get. I would use the related searches and foreignn translator to try to find different methods of massages and what kinds of techniques there are.

All About Love

I think that honesty is an important aspect of love, because it allows couples to feel comfortable talking to each other knowing that the other person is telling the truth. With honesty, both people would be happy without having any concerns or suspicion of what's going on in their relationship. Other aspects that people forget about is loving into life and commitment. We "love" death more than life, because sometimes in a relationship we tend to think too much about what we could lose instead of love. We are too worried about the many possible situations that could happen that can interfere or ruin the relationship instead of what's going on. It can be difficult to love someone without having to think about anything. Commitment is also important to remember, because some or many people can get bored really easily and it's really hard to stay on just one and only that person. As humans, we like to explore and learn new things and that's why we search for more than one partner or go on multiple dates. Commitment is very powerful, because it shows that the person is willing to stay with their one and only and that they truly love their significant other.

Realistic

My type is the realistic type. It means that I'm the type of person who likes to to be outdoors and work on machines or animals while using tools and manual skills to get the job done. A few possible majors I've chosen are Biological Sciences and Animal Sciences, because I love learning about biology whether it's human biology or animal biology and I love animals. Career options that I would pick would be a health physicist, a veterinarian, an ultrasound technologist, or a fitness program coordinator.

I had a good idea about what field I wanted to study in, but I had no clue or idea as to what career I wanted to do. I already knew that I wanted to study Biological Sciences so that was no surprise to my results, but this assessment opened my mind to more possibilities about my career. This activity helped me a lot and cleared what I want for my future career and studies a lot more. :)

Who is your hero?

My aunt is my hero because she's always there to help me and whenever I ask her to help me with something she does her best. She is a different kind of hero who doesn't have superpowers like superman, doesn't wear a costume like Mr. Legend, or did something incredible or amazing like Beowulf, but all in all they all have one quality that makes them heroes and that's to help people or their community. To me she's a hero because out of everyone, which includes friends and family, she's the closest famliy member that I look up to and have respect towards for the work that she has done in the past to present day.

Freedom to Speech?

As people of the United States, we have the freedom to express ourselves in any way, whether it comes from speech or religion, but we also need to draw a line for it could push people to far. I think the individul who made the movie violated the first amendment because, in the article, it states that the muslims and other arabic countries were furious and wanted to ban the film "The Da Vinci Code". I have never seen "The Da Vinci Code"but if it were that bad enough for 20 countries to be angry over than it must of been really insulting. The first amendment is a right that was earned and it shouldn't be abused.

Do We Need a Hero?

Our society is in need of a hero who has qualities such dedication, honesty, and being courageous as well as having strength, flexability, and intelligence, Just like Albert Einstein's qoute, "The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it" meaning that it's much more dangerous to live in a world where people don't care about others and that you would have to fend for yourself against dangers. The fear is that you would expect people not to help you when you need it most. :'(
It can be possible for a hero to combat against "forces of evil, because there can be many different typesof situations to fight. It can be physical or mental obstacle to overcome. An example of a physical situation: someone can be there for help if there was a person being robbed. An example of mental situation: someone could be fighting against stress. We may not know it, but there are heroes all around us no matter what size, gender, or age. :)

Education

I think that education in America is very valuable, because without it we wouldn't be able to develop certain skills needed to survive nor would we be able to do our jobs properly or if we could get jobs at all. Without education, it would be a lot difficult for us to learn things on our own instead of someone else teaching it to us :(. To me, education is also very important in my life. I probably wouldn't know so much as I would now if I didn't get my education. College is important to me , because I would get the education I need to become an optometrist or clinical doctor and get my bachelor of science degree, then I would continue school after I graduate college. Educatin makes it all worth while in the end. (Yaaaaay!)  :D :)

Welcome!

Hey Bloggers and welcome to my blog! ;D I'm super excited to experience new things during my senior year here at South City and like every other senior I'm looking forward to graduating and walking across the stage with a diploma in my hand. Right now I'm just trying to get good grades by staying on task and I'm thinking about getting a job this year, but I'm not so sure yet. If I were stranded on an island I would bring with me a first aid kit just in case I got hurt, a flare gun; to signal anyone for help, and a knife as my main tool.
