Coloring Everyone's Hair
Once upon a time, there was a little girl. This little girl enjoyed cutting her Barbie’s’ hair, her baby dolls’ hair, and even occasionally her own hair too. Once everyone’s hair was cut just right, she would find her markers and continue to “color” their hair. After everyone’s hair was perfect she would
“close her shop” Wash the dolls’ hair and be ready for the next day of work. Most girls have at least one moment in their life, when they have cared about their hair, the style, the cut, and the color. For me it hasn’t been just one moment, its been everyday. It’s not just my hair anymore either. Its
EVERYONE’S hair. I enjoy styling everyone’s hair. Beauty and perfection fascinate me. I have been coloring my hair, and

    In the article How It feels to Be Colored Me, Zora Hurston describes her experiences being colored. She lived in a prominently colored town in Florida up until she was thirteen and she lived a great life. Everyone knew her; she was “their” Zora. Then, her mother passed away and Hurston was shipped off to boarding school. This, she said was the first time she became colored. Now, when I first read this article I wondered how she could remember being born. Then, I realized that what she really meant was that when she left home, she was no longer Zora. To everyone she was just a little black girl.…

    This surprises her because she believes if the supply of labor is low to demand, wages should be higher. Ehrenreich is hired at the company “Merry Maids,” a house-cleaning service, for $6.65 an hour. She also gets a weekend job at a nursing home for $7 an hour. Ehrenreich finds that serving the nursing-home patients their meals is easy compared with waitressing in Key West, but cleaning up after them involved a lot of physically demanding labor. During her first day at the maid service, Ehrenreich is trained by watching videos on how they clean. She overheard another employee and learned the maid service charges its customers $25 an hour, but pays it’s employees below minimum wage. Soon after starting at Merry Maids, Ehrenreich gets a terrible rash all over her body. Her boss’ motto is “working through it” when it comes to illness, so she was unsure of how to bring the issue up. He tells her that she must be allergic to the latex gloves and that she will be fine to work. Ehrenreich has never hired a cleaning service because she finds the idea repugnant. She does not want to have the type of relationship with another human being. She continues to gather more of what it’s like to be poor in America. She notices that people in public (grocery stores, convenience stores) give her mean looks when she is dirty after work. After realzing that her rent was going to…

People seem to believe the first thing that they hear which can sometimes be very unreliable. There are many cases that speak of people being in tough situations when in actuality, it is only a few of those people taking part in those situations. People often misjudge others based on unreliable information.…

    Hello my name is Chassidy Mitchem I would absolutely love to be a part of your cosmetology program. I love to do hair and, make up. Doing hair is something I enjoy doing in my free time. It’s a way to get away from people and let my mind explore into better things. I enjoy looking and trying new hair styles and colors. I have done makeup and hair for Homecoming court and Grand March. It would be an absolute dream to get into this school and have some hands on time with the things I love doing while learning more about Cosmetology. Cosmetology is very important to the world because someone will always want their hair done or make up done. Most people only want to go to a professional so they know they will be getting the best of their money. You could also be able to set up your own business around your area. I differ from a lot of my peers because no one really understands the importance of Cosmetology the way I do. Everyone thinks it useless. Cosmetology is just as important as other jobs because someone will always need you. There will always be someone needing their eye brows done or maybe there nails especially during homecoming and prom or even a wedding. I’ve talked to a couple people and got some really interesting opinions. Some people has told me I wouldn’t make it and some people has told me I would, but my motto is “Never give up, because you never know how close you are to fulfilling your dream.” I plan on getting this degree and opening my own salon and I feel that it will give me knowledge I need to know for success. I learned to do this at a young age and I feel very strong about this career. I believe this will be the field I dedicate myself to. I hope to be attending this college at whatever time the school year would…

    How would you feel if everyday from 9 to 5 you hear, fix me a cup of coffee, secretary; file these papers, secretary; schedule a meeting, secretary. This chant reminds me of the one that Cinderella's stepmother and sisters where saying when they wanted the house clean and to prevent this young lady from attending the ball to meet her prince charming. Although that story was fictional, Marge Piercy managed to change the tune from a Cinderella's chant to The Secretary Chant. She describes the duties and personal feelings that female secretaries are too afraid to say because they may lose their jobs for taking a stand. A stand for what, you may ask. A stand to be treated as a human being and not as a machine. As a secretary myself, I am empathic to Piercy's feelings. Each day that I go to my job, I wonder if my employer understands how important I am to her business. Do she really understand that without a devoted secretary her business would be in total chaos?…

    The first thing I noticed about Georgina was that she was a very pleasant and well-presented lady wearing clean and smart attire and had her hair tied up with a comb. On arriving at the café Georgina was introduced to the owner of the café by Sue a lady from ACT. Georgina wasted no time in taking her place behind the counter, introduced herself properly to her new colleagues then promptly went to the sink and washed her hands. Now settled and ready she began to fulfil her task, she set about washing up the dirty dishes rinsing the cups and plates with clean warm water as she went along, clearing down work surfaces using the colour coded cloths provided for each specific tasks and maintaining the strict level of hygiene expected. On being prompted Georgina would serve customers giving them any information that they required for example what was the specials of the day, how much particular items were, taking payment and dispensing change correctly as required. On taking orders Georgina would advise customers how long their food would take to be processed, she would show them to a table of their choice and then she would bring the food out to the customer when the food was ready. Georgina would watch for customers finishing their meals. Once the customers had got up and left Georgina…

    Imagine living in the 1960’s fighting for the chance to be able on a hit dance show series. Now, imagine fighting for equal opportunities between the blacks and whites, in an area where segration between the two races is held up as an important aspect of the community. This is exactly what happened in the hit musical, Hairspray. I was able to attend this amazing musical at Washington Lee High School on April 25, 2015. Directed by Keith Cassidy, outstanding performers showed off their collaboration and effort, transporting the audience to Baltimore in 1962. Through acts of violence, progression in the fight towards equality, and some ridiculous hair, Hairspray was able to speak to audiences both of the 1960’s and of the decades beyond that.…

    The theme of A Doll’s House, a woman 's right to individual self-fulfillment, was considered highly subversive in an age when women were not allowed to conduct business without the authority of a father or husband. Wives and daughters were considered to be property, thus lending to women acting childish and naive. The character of Nora exhibits many of these juvenile and immature qualities. The audience first sees her when she returns from a seemingly extravagant Christmas shopping excursion. She eats a few desserts which she has secretly purchased. When her condescending husband, Torvald Helmer, asks if she has been sneaking macaroons, she denies it whole-heartedly. The Narrator tells us, “She takes a bag of macaroons out of her pocket and eats…
