A Journey to Heaven How much would you like to visit your favorite place in the world? During my senior year, my parents came in with amazing news for me. They had told me I was going to a trip to Italy with them. The plan was not initially with me going on the trip, but my little sister was, since she could not assist on the trip, I was the lucky brother that had this opportunity. Most of my concerns were school, but this trip would definitely pay off the hard work keeping up with school. One of the places I wanted to visit the most on the whole world and many other activities came along the way. Travelling is something everyone should do in their lives, know about different cultures and change the daily routine in the daily life. The most boring part, as always, is taking off from Panama to Italy; since we had to pack up the luggage and being on a plane for 14 hours. The flight was from Panama to New Jersey and a connection flight from New Jersey to Italy. The experience on plane was fine, though I’ve never liked planes, since it’s a small place and I like open-large spaces, I am a hyperactive. I had to have myself put on a seat for 14 hours watching movies, which it was not good because my parents had to deal with this and myself. Finally arriving at Italy I could already feel the excitement and smell of a new place to discover and learn. Arriving to Milan, the country was nothing like I expected. Milan brought disappointment from me since it was nothing like I expected. The hotel was O.K. though, they had to save a lot of energy and we had the worst experience staying on a “4” stars hotel. The most exciting part of being in Milan was the food, every meal had something delicious to eat and try different dishes. I went to the Ophthalmology Milan Congress 2012 with my dad which was really fun since you could see the innovations on technology about the eye, how to cure more eye diseases, how to prevent

That day, we spent most of the day at Mount Vernon. We saw what the people did right when they got to America and it was interesting. Later that day, we stopped by the White House. It was a good experience, seeing where the leader of our country lives. That was a fun full day of Washington D.C.…

    I forgot to mention that when we left for our flight to California that was going to be my first time ever flying on an airplane. It was very exciting to fly, especially since it was going to be a long three hour flight. I felt like a little kid again when the flight attendant gave me my wings for flying for my first time. Not all people in the world get to experience flying, so I thought I was pretty lucky to get to enjoy this experience.…

    “Give me liberty or give me death.” (henry). This is a famous quote from the talented American revolunist Patrick Henry. It was said that henry could position his audience to anger, fear or laughter more sudden then professional actors. He showed this talent in his Speech at the Virginia Conventiomn. The most popular poets and writers uses multiple techniques and strategies to grasp their audience attention. The rhetorical devices include pathos, that appeals to emotion, ethos, which means authority, logos introduces logic. Many revolunist uses the rhetorical triangle, which is “the art of enchanting the soul” (plato). Arthur Miller uses these styles as well in his play The Crucible. I strongly believe that henry used ethos, pathos and rhetorical questioning to connect with the audience in The Crucible.…

    The short story "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. revolves around a society where everyone is equal. The story is set in the United States in the year 2081 and focuses around the story of George, Hazel, and their son, Harrison. In this society, there are amendments to the constitution that forces equality on society. These amendments require that beautiful people wear masks, intelligent people wear noise emitting headphones to distract their thoughts, and the strong are literally weighted down. Their son, Harrison, is one of the gifted ones. He is physically fit, intelligent, and attractive. Because of these traits the government has forced him to wear a mask, restraints, and thought scrambling devices. Hazel and George don't fully understand the ramifications of their son's imprisonment because George's thoughts are disrupted and Hazel is too "average" to understand what is happening. Eventually, Harrison breaks free from his chains and declares himself emperor of this society but is immediately shot down by Diana Glampers head of the Handicapper General. Through satire, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. shows how disruptive government control can be in a society and how it impedes individuality.…

    I am Dominican and Italian. Growing up, people have jumped to conclusions about my background. Because of my skin color, I may appear as solely European or white; however, the truth is that there is more to me than others perceive. In my Junior year there were many applications that I had to fill out for tests. Of course, one of the questions was regarding my background or ethnicity. There was never a mixed option. Applications usually have a section for race or ethnicity, but that’s a hard decision because if I can’t pick two; I feel as if I am choosing between my mother and my father. The closest option to being mixed is “other”, which I am definitely not. My ethnicity is on there. I just can’t click both. I classify as a mixed child, however, there aren’t always categories for mixed children.…

    In June, the session finished more quickly than I expected. But even though learning basic Italian in English required a lot of translation in my mind, I found it really interesting and I got more confident to jump into Italy. On July 2nd, as soon as I was done with the final test, I rushed to JFK airport and swung aboard the airplane to continue my adventure in Milan, the fashion capital of the world. I was ready for the core of the adventure. Again with the engine sound of the plane, the main adventure started.…
