A Lesson Learned When I was younger, a lot of people took time out of their day to ruin mine. The only thing is, I was in fourth grade when I discovered writing. It was hard to imagine me not writing. My mind had been opened to this beautiful, fictional reality. Only, I thought it would make me popular. I lived in Wahiawa, Oahu. The kids in my school were a little… mean. In the fifth grade, I met this girl. Her name was Angel, though she was in fact, a demon. Coincidentally, we both lived near…

I trust that Stan Lee changed superhuman funnies in a rapid way, from the time he turned into a right-hand essayist, proofreader, film official maker to the time he rises to a distributor. What may strike a chord is "who is Stan Lee”? However, in this paper, I will examine the early existence of Stan, Afterwards, I will expand on how he changes superhuman funnies, to the time he hoisted himself by turning into an open figure. A short time later, I will interchange why he was so imperative to the…

There are also stores for different hobbies and fandoms. Customers can go and spend hours walking around and going into different stores and/or eating different foods. The busiest day at Carolina Place Mall is usually saturday because a lot of people in America do not work that day. Employees on the other…

Entry #3: Freud For this entry, I wanted to focus on one particular movement that has grown from the Barstool Sports universe. This movement revolves around a phrase that has been embraced by the bloggers and stoolies alike: “Saturdays are for the Boys”. This phrase was coined after a tweet from one of the bloggers for Barstool. The blogger heard this yelled by an old man in a crowded bar. He tweeted it and thought nothing of it. The next morning, the movement had begun. After several months,…

Literature can do a lot for people, it can cheer them up, get them through tough times, and motivate everyone to be great. However, out of all of these great things it can let them see different perspectives of life. This gives people hope, and hope can inspire change among important questions. Authors can have a great impact on their reader, especially when it comes to important political and social topics. First off, big names in literature have a platform of change where they can reach out an…

The internet has become a cult that worships eccentricity. Take, for example, the killing of Harambe, a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo. After a three-year-old boy got inside the gorilla’s enclosure, zoo officials decided to kill Harambe, fearing for the boy’s life. The controversial decision and odd news story has become the internet’s latest obsession. Through memes like chanting “Dicks out for Harambe,” saying “Harambe died for our sins,” and putting Harambe as a write-in candidate in the US…

The Broad My museum trip can be summed up with the word serendipitous. When I arrived at the Broad Museum in Downtown Los Angeles, I saw the line to enter the museum go down two blocks. I walked into the lobby, intending to ask a museum attendant on the estimated wait time in line. After hearing the line was going to be a three hour wait, we continued our conversation and started bonding over Yayoi Kusama’s work, especially her Infinity Mirrored Room. Unexpectedly, the museum attendant decided…

Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Prince, and Journey. All of these artists have one thing in common, they are “alive”. Whether you grew up listening to the songs and lyrics that these people have provided or your parents force you to listen to their music, almost everyone knows these artists. The test of time is a phrase used to describe if something or someone will be remembered in following years. The real question is, what current musicians will stand the test of time? There is a…

During the Great depression people wanted an escape from reality, so they turned to the “funnies” or comics. In 1933 the first true comic book was published. No longer were publishers relying on the newspaper stips for thier content ,they were creating their own. In the the “Golden Age “ of comics the characters were more one dimensional, super heroes came around the time that america did then, Super heroes became a symbol of america and military propaganda .the Silver AGe of comics came along…

There cannot be a universal definition of religion. In The Construction of Religion as an Anthropological Category in Theories of Religion, Talal Asad challenges Clifford Geertz 's specific definition of religion, arguing that specific, fixed definitions of religion are problematic because they tend to be based in the definers experiences with knowledge of a particular tradition, such as with Catholicism. Asad 's work has convinced me that it is pointless to try to establish a universal…
