False Indoors

Decent Essays
When researching about sunglasses indoors and/or at night, I learned this is a very bad deviant behavior to partake. One can say this trait or habit is from Sutherland and Cressey’s theory differential association. Young adults learn this trait from another young adult, but these young adults are from the elite class such as music artists, actors, and sport stars. Young male adults observe and mimic their role models. The Huffington Post’s local celebrity called Bwoywonder (unable to find real name) give reasons why males wear glasses indoors, some examples are, “I look mysterious in them” because eyes are the windows to the soul, so when an individual in a room with sunglasses on, many will state this person is more curious. A great example

    Today many students are scared to go “outside of the box” because they are worried about “fitting in.” In the excerpt “On the Uses of a Liberal Education,” written by Mark Edmundson, an English teacher who teaches at the University of Virginia, Edmundson states that both teachers and students at colleges do not value the opportunity of education rather a “customer culture.” First, Edmundon begins with a day that he does not like evaluation day. Edmundson typically receives good reviews; however, there are certain words that Edmunson prefers not to see when looking at his evaluations.…

    “The Ministers Black Veil”: Judgement and People in Disguise In the story “The Ministers Black Veil” by Nathaniel Hawthorne, the author reflects on how much people will judge a person on their appearance and what they are going through. Today, what a person wear, how they dress, or the way they act shows if they will be accepted by others. We tend to cover our secret sins, and judge others about theirs. “If I hide my face for sorrow, there is cause enough,” he merely replied; “and if I cover it for secret sin, what mortal might not do the same?” (6).…

    The Usher House Analysis

    The Usher house is described in great lengths by Poe; he depicts it as gloomy, depressing, eerie, and gothic. As the narrator approaches the mansion he automatically feels the negative energy radiating into him as he states, “with the first glimpse of the building, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit” (Poe) He goes on to describe the walls as “bleak” and the windows as “vacant and eye like” as he moves closer and closer to the spooky mansion. The house reminds the narrator of , “the specious totality of old wood-work which has rotted for long years in some neglected vault, with no disturbance from the breath of the external air” (Poe) and this vivid image gives the reader the idea that this house is much like a mind that has been eroding for decades with no disturbance or interference from the outside world. The house is falling apart on the inside without showing barely any defects on the exterior.…

    It is the summer 2003 and I’m pedaling fast down the street, on my bike, to get to my friend’s house. When I finally reached her house I dumped my bike off with the rest of the bikes, in the front yard, and ran inside to find everyone. I heard people upstairs and hurried up to find them. They were all sitting around talking and playing a board game. Now, think about how much interaction kids had in 2003 rather than 2015.…

    The Round House

    In the book The Round House by Louise Erdrich, one thing that I really liked was the plot in which the story took place. The novel took place in an Indian reserve in South Dakota on the year of 1988. This plot interests me because, in contrast to Saratoga, it is poor, people are always hungry and the city is still much undeveloped. Plus, it also amuses me how people lived in 1988 were a lot different from cities in the present. Another thing that I appreciated about the novel was the look into the life of a person whose family member was sexually assaulted.…

    A basic human tendency when meeting new people is to automatically assume many things about them just based on their physical appearance. People don’t often consider the fact that a person’s exterior doesn’t have any correlation with their interior. Many people struggle to overcome or ignore this bad habit, for it can lead to the downfall of what might have possibly been a great relationship. In the film, The Outsiders, this concept of judging someone by their appearance, seems to be popular and a very important part of the plot. It can even tie in on the factors on who was cast solely by appearance and physical features.…

    Most children are exposed to ads and media multiple times on a daily basis.
