Couch

"Hey Maaaaark?" I called through the house for my boyfriend. I was currently lying upside down on the couch, my legs propped up against the back. "Hey Y/NNNNNNN?" Mark mocked, chuckling as he entered the room, playfully pushing my feet off the back of the couch as he went by. "Watcha need?" he questioned, finally plopping down next to me on my right. I shifted and lay my legs on top of his lap. "I 'm boreddddd." Mark rolled his eyes, "Already? Come on! We just got up!" Mark had decided to…

Illustrating the complexities of interpersonal relationships, the XX released their self titled freshman album to critical acclaim. Among the songs on the album, “Islands” best demonstrates the complexities of interpersonal relationships owing to its lyricism, both minimalistic and introspective. Two lovers declare loyalty to each other while recognizing the sacrifices they are making; they are reluctant to let go of the freedom they cherish but feel preconditioned to be together. Much of this…

Twilight Saga, played Apples to Apples, Monopoly, and Sorry. On sunday afternoon my dad hollered down the stairs and asked if we had any homework. We all three said no and as soon as he shut the basement door we look at each other and jumped off the couch. Later that day I was finished with my homework, Goldie was at work, and Cami was working on her homework. I heard my dad going down to the basement and his words replayed in my head, “When you’re done down there make sure that you clean up…

Throughout your daily life, in 2016 it is almost impossible to avoid some form of stress. There seems to always be a deadline or a soccer game that requires time to accomplish. These events that occur in our life are called stressors. In the video The Stress Epidemic, they use a barking dog as an example of a stressor. If the stressor is not taking care of the end result is stress. If I had a hypothetical meeting with a client who is under stress how would I approach the situation? The first…

We live in a world that you never have to leave your house, you can order in, talk to friends, and go shopping without ever leaving your couch. Each time we have a spare moment we stop and retrieve our cell phones and computers and enter a virtual reality. Although this is not a bad thing, in a world where you do not have to go outside, we often forget to take the time to go outside and take advantage of what mother nature has to offer. From the time we are kids are parents would tell us that we…

Michael if he’d like to stay the night at their home; one may say it was heartfelt. After Michael had been sleeping on their couch for a while, Leigh Anne…

danced through the windows and I couldn’t stop the stupid smile that had spread over my face, twisting my head either side to click my neck, snatching the remote of the side table of the three seater couch my thumb hit the power button and the Samsung beeped in reply, with a grin I collapsed back onto the couch, my butt making contact with a very hard substance. A loud wheeze quickly escaped the person I had sat on. Stranger’s eyelid’s pulled back slowly and his mouth opened slightly, his…

I held my grandfather's hand as he stepped out of his wheelchair and onto the couch. My grandfather suffered the loss of no feeling on the left side of his body. My grandfather had suffered a stroke this past summer and the consequence was no feeling on his left side. For one month of my summer break, I was my grandfathers caretaker. I helped him move from his wheelchair to the couch. I assisted in getting him into bed. I was the left side of his body. Through that one month, three times a week,…

how much longer you can live if you exercise? If you exercise you can live so much longer, and you feel so much better. Instead of sitting on the couch and watching tv, go outside and go for a walk or go for a run. When it is 65 degrees out and you are sitting on the couch that is a very bad thing to do. It is very bad for you. When you are just on the couch all you eat is junk food all the time. I think it's time for people to start running and not sitting. Exercising is the best thing…
