There is nothing like being ready to enjoy a delicious meal, and then realizing that the meal will be consumed in the presence of a smacker. A smacker can be defined as: the person at the dinner table that parts their lips noisily in eager anticipation of food, drink, or other pleasures. If there were ever a someone that could ruin good food, it would be the person too focused on the food and totally disregarding the awful noises coming from their muzzle. My hatred for smackers can most closely…

As technology continues to advance and possibilities are explored, these issues also continue to develop and become increasingly widespread. Consider the use of prosthetic limbs to restore limbs to those who lost them or have a condition preventing the development of the limb: individuals with prosthetic legs, for example, without denying the pain of having lost their limbs, need not be concerned with prosthetic fatigue.

(Disclaimer: there would be a lot of flag waving and singing parts that I love). After the mass, we were supposed to watch the Copa Catolico finals (It’s like a football cup), but we didn’t have time because we had to go to Blonia for the way of the…

enjoy. Here I was slowly finishing all mine up. When we finally did arrive, wavier after wavier of liabilities were placed in front of us. The final paper claimed that if I died, my family could not sue, and we were sent to a room to watch another disclaimer video. Finally we were sent to the field out back to wait for our group to jump. This, by far, was the worst part. There was no fear ever etched into my mind, but the waiting game was just awful.
