"Thanks for answering so throughly," the man said sarcastically.

"I'm sorry..." Jonathan looked down, not sure what to say next.

"Well, where's your folks?"

"I don't know."

The man sighed to himself. "It sure is odd to see young kids over here all on their own," the man said.

"Who are you," Jonathon asked again.

"Call me... Phil."

Jonathon nodded, and Phil extended a hand. "It's nice to meet you," Phil said, and then they shook hands.

"It's nice to meet you too," Jonathon muttered while looking down.

"Well," Phil shuddered, "it's getting mighty cold outside. You got a home?"

"I don't... know."

"I'll take that as a no. You need to come inside. You'll get frostbit. Or... Do you wanna stay outside?"

"Why would I?"
"Oh..." Phil

    I’ve usually learned in hard way because frankly, I love to challenge myself to expand my personal capacity. Although I had already talked to one of my classmates about having interview with her as a Caucasian woman, I decided to do it with my cousin’s friend, Jacob, who I met in my place for the first time during Thanksgiving holidays. Interviewing Jacob about his interactions with other cultures has made me realize that I have a lot to learn about the meaning of the privilege and holding it. Jacob was a 24-year-old Caucasian, who lived in Missouri his entire life. Though he was visiting California for the second time in his life, he was in a Persian house for the first time.…

    Some films give away their ending based on the very genre they fall into; the couple puts aside their differences for love in the romantic comedy and the hero wins at the end of an action movie. There are those that play upon these tropes to purposefully subvert the reader’s expectations of course, but the more interesting cases lie in those films that aren’t attempting to subvert the genre, yet somehow manage to subtly undermine themselves through conflicting messages over the course of the film. King Vidor’s 1937 maternal melodrama Stella Dallas is the perfect example of a film whose ending message is preceded by so many contradicting elements, that it’s intended ending message to the audience is not resolutely “earned” but rather left open for interpretation.

    “I can see why,” chimed the Godmother, “Apparently it seems that there are two Catholic high schools on the West Coast, where they are currently being besieged by dark occult forces. Not sure how I’m supposed to react to this, Charles, but one thing does remain certain: I will pray for the students, teachers and faculty of those schools. So will Harold–provided that someone informs him about it.” Reading further, she learned of more nuanced matters that might be of interest to the Ryanites, including those within the RGA. Pointing her left index finger at the couch where Willy Pete was sitting in, he asked Charles, “You mind if I have a seat there, and try to figure out the other parts of these documents?”…
