V-A Day Speech
No, that was a very astute answer. I can see what you're talking about.

Thank you. If you keep watching, there is an episode where they celebrate V-A Day which is the day that the war ended. Again, if you strip away all the Nazi stuff, it could be Thanksgiving. It could be an Independence Day. It is really chilling by how closer it is to the American Dream than not at all.

I'm still in season one, but I plan to keep watching. I did get to interview Lini Evans who appeared on the show and had wonderful things to say about it.

Oh, she's a lovely person!

She told me how wonderful her experience had been on the show. And there are also some kids from When Calls the Heart who have appeared in the show. They were the first people to tell me about

One of them is with Mayumi Yoshida who plays the crown princess in The Man in the High Castle. I did do a small stint on The Romeo Section, and that was a very popular show here in Canada. I also shot a pilot called Ask Will, which is this quirky dramedy in the style of Arrested Development or Curb Your Enthusiasm. We are hoping to get a series pickup with that one. That would be absolutely amazing. I also shot a Canadian feature called Prodigals which stars one of my The Man in the High Castle co-stars, Kaniehtiio Horn (Hemlock Grove). But it's true that The Man in the High Castle truly does consume my time. I shoot a lot of indies on the side when I can. But they are "super-indies," like they'll probably never see the light of day outside of …show more content…
I realize I only "met" him over Skype, but all of his interactions with me have been considerate, uplifting, and overtly hospitable from the moment we began interacting. While the preponderance of people I meet through my interviews are humble and benevolent, Lee took such a genuine interest in me that reviewing this interview was an especially sweet experience. Having music in common probably established a quick and mutual foundation for our exchanges, and the fact that he actively listened to my responses and questions is a quality that resonated with me on a profound level. Lee is an actor and professional with unrestricted depth, but the fact that his interactions with me were so authentic explains exactly why, in my opinion, he has had such success in this business, especially with recurrent roles. He doesn't go out of his way to network; some people have to make a conscious decision to do that until it becomes "second nature" in this business. But with Lee, it seems that he is able to seek and find connections with ease and relate to people on a sincere level. I would say that like me, he has an insatiable desire to know and understand the people with whom he comes in contact, and I, for one, find that refreshing. While I interviewed him and attempted to

    I am presenting this evening my Informative Speech. That was then….and this is now. I call Culpeper, Virginia home. Though, the small town I knew growing up was Springfield, Virginia. I would like to tell you and share some of my memories about growing up in Northern Virginia and of its changes that have occurred over the decades. Growing up Springfield really was small town USA. The normal commuter was traveling south onto interstate 95 from Washington, D.C. which is now is exit 169A and a permanent memory etched in my brain. Throughout the 1970’s there was only three very small strip shopping malls the served a country setting population. Then the 1980’s came, and flooded the suburbs with malls. People still went into Washington, D.C.…

    Today we are celebrating your Bar-Mitzvah, the time that they call the “acceptance of all the mitzvot.” As your older brother, I can tell you that its not the easiest part of growing up, but Dad would want me to say that you must always work your best to realize the importance of being a Jew and too love judaism. In celebrating your Bar Mitzvah this shabbos, and going on in life, you must always remember the core of who you are as a jew and what you represent. As I watch you grow and become a man, I think about who you are already.

For example in the process of learning when I need to learn anything, I need specific explanations of How can I do it and personally I think that the specific answers are the best method to learn because it gives you the way that you must follow step by step to finally get what you want, in this case learn…

    Imagine this scene.A. Singing a song: Happy Birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy Birthday Happy, Birthday Happy Birthday to you. Okay blow out your candle and make a wish.II. Now be honest how many of you today still make a wish on your birthday candle? Did you know that that tradition is actually a superstition? Just like picking a penny heads up for good luck and not walking under a latter in fear of getting bad luck. You ever wonder why the lady behind you just threw salt on you or why at baby showers they spin a needle of the belly of the mother to be to determine the baby's sex. You aren't the only one. In my speech I will inform you of the many different superstitions that are still practiced and why people do the crazy things they do.…

    Every morning when I put on my Head Girl badge, I am reminded of the responsibility, challenges and leadership I entail. Although Yr 12 is often described as hectic, for me it has been a year of great discoveries. Where I have learnt from positive and negative experiences, learnt about myself and my peers, and gained the acquired knowledge I will need to carry on for the beginning of my adult life. When I think of the Student Council team this year, I see a group of passionate young adults who can work together in making positive changes throughout the school. Their strength, enthusiasm and positivity has been refreshing and assisted us through the years’ hurdles. My experiences at Leeming Senior High School have shaped me into the Year 12 Student I am today and I thank the teachers, students and school for all they have contributed. “Ability is nothing without opportunity” I have been given countless opportunities to enhance my leadership skills and workshop my passion for drama. I have attended various leadership camps such as the Sir Charles Court Leaders Program in 2009 and the Amanda Young Leaders Eco-Summit in 2010. Both these camps not only taught me how to develop my leadership qualities but also bring these skills out into the community, and especially our school. My involvement in the annual school productions, ‘Summer of the Aliens’ in 2009, ‘Ziggy’s Bar - A Cabaret’ in 2010 and this year’s ‘A Dream Deferred’; can be characterised by the words: magical, emotional and at times, life changing. I’ve come to believe the truth is the most valuable gift you can share with other people. Who you are and what you do is priceless. Sharing my experiences and leadership with the rest of LSHS, the class of 2011 and eventually the rest of the world, has and is one of my goals. My stories. My truths. So that we may all come to understand each other a little better. So that we may all find our own definition of what it means to be successful. So that our generation…
