a hard time but because he knows the grass is greener on the other side. He also sings, “I 'm pushing to stay with something better,”(6) reiterating that he is struggling to overcome his addiction. All throughout the poetic song he repeats himself as most songs do called a chorus, but he more than repeats the chorus, he purposely repeats himself, such as in line 20, 30, and 44, as symbolism, a symbol for the habitual repetitive use of addictive behavior, that is alcoholism.

I will now look at drop shipping which has been developed as a result of disintermediation. It is defined by (Shopify 2016) as “Drop shipping is a retail fulfillment method where a store doesn 't keep the products it sells in stock.

This book tells the story of Damon Courtenay as he tries to overcome the adversities caused by haemophilia and Aids. After I finished this book, I was disappointed by the treatment people with HIV and Aids received, particularly by the men and women in the medical profession.
