Life’s What You Make It Life is filled with countless opportunities that will more or less make or break the pathway to humanity. Sometimes an individual may question his or her values and beliefs because society does not idolize them, but that does not mean they are not true. In order to live a good life one must have their own free will to make decisions and put meaning in their own life. Also, when thinking about what it means to live a good life, maintaining social order becomes…

Looking For Alaska by John Green (Book) and Skins S2E7 - Effy (TV Series) the idea that drugs and alcohol can influence your decisions and have negative outcomes is clearly shown but each their own way. In the movie Basketball Diaries the main character Jim Carol revolves his life around basketball and he dreams of being a famous sports star one day or at least that was the plan, but with his best friend, Bobby, in the hospital dying of leukaemia, and a growing addiction for what just started…

The interaction between the students…

Imagine being 4 years old, watching your favorite character perform on your favorite show. Confident that you were knowledgeable of everything he was going to do next. Then you get a surprise, Big Bird is going to China. Your level of excitement is uncontainable. You have only seen him on Sesame Street, with Oscar the Grouch, Grover, Burt and Ernie. He was leaving his nest; he was not just traveling to another place, but to an entirely different country. I had to question, “How was he going to…

The case study that we were required to read was very interesting as it dates back to the early 1900’s. This means we were able to see the culture of the company and how it progressed over a century of time! I’d like, for a second, to take the abstract thought of how this company held on to its beliefs and values even through all the changes and advancements we’ve have in our culture with people’s rights and the change of the cultural norm. Analyzing the case study you are quickly led to…

A prominent female writer in the 1960s, Didion had initially left me drawing connections to the likes of Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem. Even her stern gaze present on book covers and articles seems to give off a sense of feminine mystique. But after careful venture into her work, it is my understanding that while feminism plays a role in what Didion tackles as…

After VW I ended, I was on a roll! Using the open mic had been going awesome! Excitement about using the mask was followed by a bit of anxiety. Initially, I was under the impression that getting used to and adapting to the mask would be easy. It was with great ease I was able to set up the mask with my laptop and DNS. One of the 1st things I dictated was my Week 1 discussion post. The mask was working well with Dragon and seemed to be hearing me. One of the 1st obvious challenges that I…
