Screen time addiction, or screen obsession, is a vexed subject as the majority of parents and society view it as a problem, while rest feel that it is not a huge concern. Some feel the need for people to crack down on screen addiction because they compare the U.S to countries like South Korea or China where there already is an epidemic on screen usage. Also, screen time doesn’t just cover the internet, but much more, ranging from phone usage to video games, and just about anything that allows…

The Other “L” Word “You used to be such a good Republican”. Never in my life did I ever expect those words to be directed towards me, or to come from somebody as familiar as my father. My simple and seemingly harmless comment about a local news story on Channel 6 seemed to have struck a chord with him. As I stood and let his remark wash over me, I attempted to justify my immediate reaction: offense. To be honest, I wasn’t offended by this off-hand statement; I was merely confused by what…

Student A has shown major development over my time of observing her. She has gone from drawing shapes that were not definite to writing her full name and other words. I think writing and reading is her main focus because she enjoys it. She voluntarily chooses these centers to work at during the day. She also enjoys the home living center. When she is over there she dresses up and plays the part. For example, when she was the cleaner, she had the broom, but she also had on the gloves while she…

The witch smiles her sweet grin. “Wonderful!” She rises from her chair and grabs a spherical green object from a nearby shelf. She sets it on the table with a thump. “Is that a crystal ball?” Will asks. The sound of his voice sends my heart into a downward spiral. Heat rises up my spine. Whatever is in the air in this place, it’s making my emotions go haywire. The crystal ball suddenly sparks into a cloud of green, producing sparkles within it. The woman laughs at the sight. “So much attraction!…

English 1102. My very first class, an 8 AM, as a University of Georgia student. I had many feelings going into this class. I am not a morning person, so would I dread waking up in the mornings to go to class? I never felt my writing was perfect, so would I flunk my first college English class? I was used to high school classes, so would I transition into college smoothly? Little did I know, as soon as I sat down in my tiny college desk, I was about to be relieved. My teacher, Gale, changed my…

The book begins with a modernist architect, Le Corbusier, visiting New York City. Le Corbusier marveled both the city and the musical culture of African-Americans. He believed, “jazz is an event representing the forces of today” (p. 3). The forces of today are the industrialization and mass production of American society. He even goes on to state that American society is a “machine for living” (p. 3). Le Corbusier believed jazz reflected and contained chaotic yet continuous rhythmic flow that…

e honest, how do you think of yourself in the community? (Toxic, friendly, etc.):I speak my mind. I don't like to word what I have to say differently unless 100% needed to. Most of the time I am pretty chill with my friends. I'm not usually toxic unless it is 100% needed. Why would you like to apply for Centile?:I love to help people, and spend a lot of time with my faction and people who ask for it giving them information they need to be successful on the server. Helping is what I love to do…
