Here is a paper I wrote about my favorite hobby for speech class. It involves a deadly weapon and an unstoppable desire to loose arrows. Enjoy! Archery Informative Speech Pauline Mulkerrins Speech 101 Professor Frelix July 10, 2014 MANUSCRIPT I’ll never forget the first time I used a bow and arrow. I had dreamed of this day since I was little. After a short safety instructional, I held the bow tightly in my right hand, and put the arrow on the bowstring with my left. The target looked huge and was only about 10 yards away, but it seemed so far. I was so scared I was going to miss and shoot my instructor or miss terribly. I instead took a deep breath, put the bow into position and pulled back the arrow. I knew at that second I had found something I loved. I let go of the string, and my arrow hit the target! I did something so simple and yet so scary. I looked at my archery instructor and g...

Welcome to My Blog!
Hello and welcome to my blog! I will be posting my work here for all to see! I have created so many papers, editorials and created presentations on a myriad of topics, and keeping it to myself has been selfish, I know. 😊 As a mother reentering the workforce after a break and working on her master's degree in Healthcare Communication at DePaul University, I am very interested to get my voice and perspective out there for all to see.

March: This is when it hits the fan. The weather starts to improve, but my aging parent's health starts to decline.
