diversity

in school i have friend from the aran islands he is very friendly and a lot bigger than me one weekend i invited him up to my house in my life i use the darts and trains a lot but when he came up it was his first time ever on the dart and about his third time on a train of any sort i found this hard to believe because me and everyone i know always use the trains when we were on the train he looked like a four or five year old on the train the excited look on his face he was very excited and interested about the whole thing it was a completly new experiance after this i was talking to him about how he lives his life because i figured it would be very different after the train experiance i asked him if he had sky on his tv but he didn’t he said he didn’t need it this also supprised me because once again everyone i know including myself has sky tv i asked him what he did for fun or on wet days if he watched tv he said no he very rarley watched tv he normally played with his siblings this again suprised me because on wet days me and my friends would normally watch tv but my friend had a completly different lifestyle it didn’t involve fast foods tv and going shopping often he maybe once every two weeks went to galway to do shopping . netsend hi wksd18

my experience with diversity

My experience with diversity was the way in Spain and other hot places there is not pleanty of rain so there is always a shortage of water, which means there isnt going to be loads of grass for animals to graze. Here in Ireland though,it is the exaect opposite. We can have too much water, and then we can’t let our animals out because they would destroy the place.

my diverse experience

a diverse experience i had was when i went to venice and they did not use cars because there were no roads there and the only mode of transport there were via the ferrys and other boats that crossed the canal all of the time. from what i saw of the city their main trade was in selling masks that mainly covered your face, every stand youwent to sold them and there was allot of shops that didn’t sell anything but these strange masks. another thing that i found strange about venice was that the people working there were very leniant about their working times because allot of the shops would close up completly from 12 until 2 for a lunch break. Some of the shops would close at different times everyday depending on how much business.

DIVERSITY

As I watch my daughter opening her birthday gifts, while seated in a circle on the floor with all of her friends; I can’t help but think of how strange this little group would have seemed just a few years ago, or even today, in different parts of the world. The diversity of the children is astounding to me — the ethnic and religious backgrounds represented by this small circle span at least eight or nine countries. I am delighted by their innocence and ease with each other.

As she blows out her candles, and the other children wait breathlessly to see if she will get her wish, I know that this is where acceptance begins. This environment is where the tapestry of belief gets woven; these little ones don’t see differences, they see similarities. And when differences do arise, I’m hoping that they will be a cause for celebration and growth. Today this little circle of friendship helps me believe we are making a good start.

French Exchanges

French exchanges come to my school regulary. They are often losers and weirdoes because Fr. John picks only the ones that have good English. Very rarely do French exchanges be good at rugby. We have had 6 or 8 French exchanges 1 of which has been good at rugby. He was called Aymeric he was from Bordeaux.

Thank you Diversity for letting me share this expierience.

MY LIVE IN IRELAND

MY DIVERSE EXPERIENCE:

I think that a good example is the language, and I am going to do it about the language.

I am Spanish, so I remember when I came here; (Ireland) and I did have to do a step back and think two or more times what was I going to said.

I like ireland but i have to think anyway what am i going to said.

diversity

“Like a woman.” Often used as an adjective but also appearing in noun form. More specifically, the term relates to writer Alice Walker’s understanding of a woman who takes her identity from what both her sex and her ethnicity offer. Walker (1984) coined womanist to describe a black feminist, defining the term in the preface to her collection of essays. In ‘Search of Our Mother’s Gardens: Womanist Prose.’ It is also applied self-descriptively by other feminists of color, with the intent of avoiding any racism implied in feminist, which, when applied to black women, often requires a qualifier, e.g., black feminist. Derived from WOMANISH-meaning characteristic of a woman and considered unsuitable for a man (e.g., “womanish tears”)-it nevertheless has a very different meaning.
