Rachel N Agan Muniz | University of North Dakota (original) (raw)
It doesn't seem like I'm ever going to graduate (Part II).
Having attended University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire for three semesters in search of a dream, I transferred schools after I was not accepted into their percussion studio.
I am a Percussion Performance major at the University of North Dakota, undergraduate class of 2019, graduate glass of 2021. Maybe I'll do a doctorate, maybe I won't. I work hard, and I'm very passionate about what I do. Someday, I want to run my own percussion studio, either private or at the college level and pass down my knowledge to equally passionate and hardworking individuals.
I also enjoy writing, playing other instruments including guitar and piano and singing, video games, learning about Wicca, and spending lots of quality time with my loving husband, Matheus, and my two adorable cats, Pluto and Nyx.
I love knowing that my works published on this site are of use to other students and I will happily answer any questions you may have in regard to my writing.
Blessed be!

Through these books, I will explore and study the burdens that these characters carried with them in their times of tribulation.

From there, I will compare the experiences of each protagonist, and take a deeper look into the hardships of each as they struggle against the hand of patriarchal regimes.

Society has our gender roles predetermined for us the second we're born in the hospitals. Will yours be a pink or a blue blanket?

As Michael Specter outlined five years ago in his TED Talk: The Danger of Science Denial, "health, wealth, mobility, opportunity, and declining rates of disease" are all reasons to look forward to what the future brings instead of looking to the past for answers to life's problems (Specter, 2010). Overall, Specter does an excellent job of drawing in his audience with information that is contingent with current issues, while simultaneously challenging others to view the future for what it really is, rather than allowing skepticism to poorly affect smart decision making. To summarize, he is asking his audience of Americans and international TED Talk fans alike to look at the big picture, the ethical picture, the logical picture; which is worse?
