instead their lifestyles and their interests in life (Kimmel). In addition to that, many of the cases they were not gay but that didn’t stop their peers from bullying them because they were slightly different from the other guys. Some of them were shy, geek, and more serious than the others when it comes to their education but all of those were not the actual triggers for their actions but in fact taking away their manhood was, for example, calling them names such as faggots, homos, loners, and…
Wreck-it Ralph showed me that an arcade can be more than a dark place full of geeks. The arcade is a place full of emotions, you can see and hear people crying while others are laughing and shouting at the game in front of them. One main character in the movie is Ralph, the villain in the game Wreck-it Ralph; he is a tall, big guy…
Those nerdy isolated people, glued onto their gizmos and doohickey as the hours pass by. Constantly scavenging new ways to help society. Techies have been trying innovating society’s lives, and therefore transforming people’s lives by making lifestyles much higher convenient and advanced. Therefore, nowadays people say that techies are “inevitable” to society, as people use technology almost every day. This is an ideal word “inevitable” since our day starts, people all around the world start…
Forbes. Having been in the security arena for over two decades now, I have seen how much it has grown, but never have I seen such a wonderful number: “1,000,000 Cybersecurity Experts blah blah blah.” Apologies for the “blah blah blah” portion, but the geek/nerd/pessimist/realist in me wouldn’t allow me to process this magical number. Mentally, the number seems absurd, so I decided to be fair. Headed back to Dice to search the term “Cyber” if the number (1,000,000) holds true, there should be no…
porch to a world where humans can be turned into frogs just by a flick of a wand. On the side I would read anything from non-fiction to drama to science fiction. I would never shut the door to any book that might take me to another world. But a book geek as I was, I still had trouble with my grammar, the rules behind the language that I know the most off. I would get an essay back and can’t even see the black ink of letters because of red pen marks everywhere correcting my grammar. I despised…

Despite the negative attention that college fraternities have received, Greek life is a very important and rewarding part of the college experience. Banning fraternities on college campuses could possibly lead to a higher risk of negative actions than were committed prior. Fraternities provide a home away from home for many young men (and women seeing how many sororities are technically considered fraternities) and guidance throughout the college years. Disassembling fraternities would lead to a…
Throughout the movie October Sky the main protagonist (Homer Hickam) faced several challenges that held them back and delayed their dream of building rockets. Most people would have given up after a failure. In Coalwood people do not go to college or leave the town and are destined to become a coal miner unless they are good at football. But Homer doesn’t want to be a coal miner and works to get a scholarship. He and his friends persevered (even after several rocket explosions and mishaps) and…
The Incredibles is a movie I've seen too many times. This movie was one of my favorite movies as a kid, and still is now. A movie about super heroes in hiding because the world doesn’t accept them and a story of them saving the same world just drew me in. In the review published in Teen Ink they stated that the movie as "Funny, exciting, adventurous and nerve wracking” (Schatz). I believe this is exactly how to describe the movie. This review and many others explains how The Incredibles is funny…
