Observational Essay

Writing an observational essay can be both a challenging and rewarding task. The difficulty lies in
the delicate balance between providing a detailed and vivid description of the subject while also
conveying a deeper understanding or insight. Unlike other forms of writing, observational essays
require keen attention to detail and a heightened sense of awareness. It's not just about describing
what you see; it's about capturing the essence of the scene or subject in a way that resonates with the
reader.

The challenge begins with selecting the right subject for observation. It should be something that not
only piques your interest but also offers a rich tapestry of details to explore. Once you've chosen
your subject, the real work starts in earnest. The process involves immersing yourself in the
environment, observing every nuance, and taking copious notes. The difficulty intensifies when you
realize the need to sift through the overwhelming amount of information to identify the most
significant and relevant details.

Crafting a compelling narrative from these observations requires a skillful touch. Translating raw data
into a coherent and engaging essay involves the art of storytelling. You must create a flow that
allows the reader to visualize the scene and feel the emotions evoked by your descriptions. Striking
the right balance between objectivity and subjective interpretation is another challenge, as too much
of either can skew the essay's tone.

Moreover, the observational essay demands a mastery of language and descriptive techniques. You
need to paint a vivid picture using words, appealing to the senses and emotions of the reader. The
difficulty lies in finding the right words, metaphors, and similes to convey the atmosphere and
essence of the observed subject accurately.

In conclusion, writing an observational essay is a challenging endeavor that requires a keen eye, a
meticulous approach, and a flair for descriptive language. However, the satisfaction derived from
successfully capturing a moment or scene in words makes the effort worthwhile. It's a journey of
discovery, both for the writer and the reader.

The Analysis On Ephesians Prefacing The Book The Bible ...
In the ESV study bible, the authors wrote an excerpt on Ephesians prefacing the author,
title, date, background information, and a description of the ancient city of Ephesus.
Relating to the author of Ephesians all scholars believed that Paul wrote the letter, until
recent times where many scholars propose that an imitator or a follower of Paul wrote
the letter. The scholars give two reasons for this theory, the first is the letter s style does
not represent Pauline thought, and the second being the authors unfamiliarity with the
recipients. In contrast, some scholars say there is ample proof of Pauline authorship; the
first reason is the letter explicitly claims to be Paul s in Ephesians 1:1 and 3:1, and the
second reason subsists in more analysis of the text and that it is similar to other Pauline
texts. The final argument for Pauline authorship is the forcefulness of the author s speech
mentioned in Ephesians 4:15, and verse 25. In these two verses, the argument that the
author is unfamiliar with the audience stands debunked because the author commands of
them and the author addresses the unity they all possess. Secondly, an important
historical component for understanding the context of Ephesians is to know the date it is
written and background information of why Paul wrote the letter. Scholars suggest that
Paul wrote Ephesians in 62 AD when he was under house arrest in Rome, this conclusion
comes from Paul mentioning his imprisonment in Ephesians 3:1, 4:1, and 6:20.
Saint Joan Of Arc Or Sainte Jeanne D Arc In French
The saint I chose to write a biography on was Saint Joan of Arc or Sainte Jeanne d Arc
in French. She was a French saint who saved France from England and Burgundians
during the Hundred Years War (insert citation). I chose her because she demonstrated
many characteristics and her story is very unique. She lost her life at a very young
age and was only canonized as a saint, hundreds of years after her death. She believed
in God so much that it helped her achieve her destiny. She was born as a peasant girl in
1412 in the small village of Domrémy (insert citation). Her father was a tenant farmer
and both her parents were very religious (insert citation). She was not taught to read or
write yet she received a deep love and interest for Catholic
Mesopotamia First Irrigation System

could irrigate fields of Barkley, wheat and peas (Pg. 26). This was the first irrigation
system. They started to acquire migrants. With the Sumerian people creating these new

migrating they create the First Cities . Or City States , Sumerian cities were centers of
political and military authority, and their jurisdiction extended into the surrounding areas

My Life At Dunkin Donuts
I was struggling to find a research topic that affected my day to day life while also
being plant related. In the beginning, I was unclear but the answer was in my face the
entire time. First, I am a college student and far from a morning person. Second, I work
at Dunkin Donuts. Lastly, I consume it 6 days a week. Coffeeplays a huge role in my life.
It is a great topic to research and it is plant related. As I approached my research, I
thought I would start with what I know: the coffee bean. Right away, I learned that coffea
(scientific name) is a type of flowering plant. It is a part of the rubiaceaefamily and can
be spotted by its simple, opposite leaves and interpetiolar stipules. These plants are

14 15 of Types of Coffee). Once a coffee seed has been processed it cannot be used to
produce another plant. The work does not end after the growing because it really begins
with the processing of the beans.
These ripe plants have to be picked for the harvest. In Brazil, the world s largest coffee
producer, their crops are mechanically harvested due to their great coffee fields.
Mechanical harvesting takes place when the branches are swept for cherries or the
trunk is shaken to drop the cherries. The shaking can be calibrated and will leave the
unripe cherries on the trees. Another method used is stripping; this is thought to be
very wasteful because unripe cherries will also be removed. This method is used when
the majority of the fruit is ripe. In both methods, after the beans are shaken to the
ground, the beans are raked and sorted. The last method is self explanatory and very
popular, hand picking the cherries. Ripe cherries (based on touch and color) are picked
while the unripe cherries are saved to be picked at a later date. Next, the coffee seeds
have to be processed. Once the coffee has been picked, processing must begin as
quickly as possible to prevent fruit spoilage (from pp.31 32 of 10 Steps from Seed to
Cup). Depending on its location, either the dry or wet method can be used to process the
beans. First, the
