I am taking creative writing this semester, and I likely have to do a lot of assignments like this one. This assignment basically is “What is in name\/Your Name”. So here is what I wrote, worried it is a little too Blossom-(the TV show)-esque. Let me know what you think in one way or another.<\/p>\n
\n Steven and Michael mean \u201ccrown\u201d and \u201cwho is like a god\u201d respectively. Rogers means \u201cfamed spear.\u201d Therefore, I must assume that I am a celebrity javelin beyond Saint Peter\u2019s golden gates wearing an ornamented hat. However, my head is naked, except for some glasses, and I am not a heavenly medieval weapon but instead the son of a Rogers.<\/p>\n
\tMy father had 4 brothers, all of which are professional, white collar men. Doctor, lawyer, professor, reporter, and scientist are the job descriptions for the five sons of the chemist. Their father emphasized education and work ethic into the sons. With these traits, the five of them achieved their success. Then, as fathers, the sons only knew how to raise their sons with the same emphasis. It wasn\u2019t engrained into me as much as it was for some cousins, but I am clearly a Rogers.<\/p>\n
\tThis has its pluses and minuses. On the positive side, whenever anyone refers to me with the title of Mister, I can simply say that \u201cI am in the neighborhood.\u201d On the negative side, sometimes I am too much of a Rogers and am too concerned about accomplishments or success. Sometimes when standing around the five sons, one feels like they are around five Michaels, five god-like individuals. This Rogers\u2019 neighborhood can be slightly intimidating but also rewardingly challenging.<\/p>\n
\tPerhaps it is the Rogers in me, but one should strive to achieve all that they can. The difficulty for the Rogers is realizing which things in life are the greatest achievements. Sometimes the most valuable Steven, crown, is one that is not achieved through the work ethic and education of the Rogers.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
