Looking at my grandmother, sitting at her computer, makes me content as well as hurt. At the ripe age of 62, I praise God every day she’s still here. Time has aged her, but she only be becomes more beautiful every day. My view reveals a strong, incredible, African American woman; but also a woman growing weaker every day. She is incredibly compassionate, independent, and courageous. Her short, weighty frame and terrible posture, in her old worn chair with no back support, is probably why she…

red, mellow blue, and vibrant red colors used in the scenic view painted before them. In essence, the painting is of a medium length rectangular, wooden table partially extending from a room inside of an apartment or condo, out onto a balcony with cast iron railings. The ocean and general warmth of the colors used adds a curious, yet inviting tone to the piece. There are many objects strategically positioned on top of and above the table which work together to create the busy, chaotic unity and…

From the beginning of time, as seen in Christianity, sin has plagued the earth. From eve taking of the forbidden fruit and being cast from paradise to someone robbing an elderly woman down the street, sin is always present. The consequences of sin should have taught us to avoid it at all costs, yet we still fall victim to it. Sin is never the solution yet it is almost always the inevitable answer. Every person sins, and in turn they are judged and besieged with consequences. Never was this more…

The King of Disney Disney is renowned for their spectacular animated movies. Most, if not all, of their movies are considered as classics and are timeless. For the past 80 years, there has been an ongoing debate about which Disney movie is greatest. It seems as if every individual has their own opinion and belief about which movie is the best and why. Overall, it seems to come down to two movies, Beauty and the Beast and the Lion King. “NAAA ZABENYA BABA SITHI UHM!” This short phrase can…

I have chosen “Mamma Mia”, a fictional story inspired by the music of the Swedish pop group, ABBA. The title of the musical is one of the group’s songs, and it sung throughout the show. I chose it because I saw it pretty recently with one of my closest friends, and it opened up a world of new love and appreciation for Broadway and Musical Theatre to me, even though I loved it already. It’s hard to talk about the musical without mentioning the history of the hugely successful group, ABBA.…

that everyone has failed and that everyone has been where you are. For example, Adolphe Sax, the inventor of the saxophone, hit rock-bottom more than one time. In fact, he had seven near-death experiences. Here are some of them: he fell onto a hot cast-iron frying pan, burning his side severely; survived poisoning and suffocation in his own bedroom; and fell into a river and nearly drowned. These many times in the dark for Sax would have made most people quit, but he got up and invented. This…

Thinking that any person could connect to that is insane. It is so obscure that it makes the villain distant and confusing. But thankfully…
