Louis C.K. was on the Late Night Show with Conan O’Brien. C.K. was ranting about people take technology for granted. C.K. said that supposedly everything is amazing in the world, but nobody is happy. Louis C.K. was talking about the technology on airplanes called “high speed internet”. Many people think that his argument was not good. Louis CK talked about technology for a while when he was on the Late Night Show with Conan O’Brien. When he was ranting about the new tech was being taken for…

Comparatively, the screen time argument is something that everyone can determine for themselves, whether it be good or bad, yet the facts mustn’t be set aside. The media naturalness theory asks the important question that follows: “What should happen when we selectively suppress face-to-face communication elements (e.g., colocation, the ability to employ facial expressions, etc.) through e-communication technologies?” (Kock pg. 2). Realistically, there must be an answer as to what happens when…

Choosing to do yoga as my behavioral change project was probably one of the best decisions I have ever made. After quitting color guard freshman year of high school, I stopped stretching; therefore, I was not flexible anymore. Color guard was also a way for me to get away from all my academics. Every year, I would attempt to stretch as I did back in high school, but failed to do so. Every day, I will encounter something that will cause me to stress out, even if it is something little. When I…

Have you ever seen something that was wrong and you kept walking? I have I will not lie it has happened to me many times in my life. Why is that? Maybe because we aren 't educated enough, even because we are scared or people telling you not to do anything? But first, let’s make sure we know what a bystander is. A bystander is someone who is present at an event or incident and does not take part in stopping. I can tell you my first time I was a bystander and then I realized it was wrong, it…

have an exceptionally limited list of TV shows that I actually enjoy watching, but The Office is definitely on that list. Along with favorite TV shows comes with favorite characters from that certain show. One of my favorite characters happens to be Kelly Kapoor, played by Mindy Kaling. In her comedic autobiography, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns), she explains how she got into the world of show business, being a comedic writer and performer, her experiences on The…

What does the 1954 mystery thriller Rear Window in common with 2014 action comedy 22 Jump Street? At first glance, the older and newer films have very little in common. The stories they tell have no similarities. Also, the editing styles and techniques are much more complex within the newer motion picture than the older one. However, after careful inspection, both films use the same basic components to achieve their storytelling goals. A similar practice is the use of music to establish or…

Throughout our lifetime, many people strive to be respected and honored in their own rights within their social class and their society. Therefore, in order to be respected one must be respectful, credible, trustworthy as well as honest. Hence, these traits form the core principal of what is known as good ethos. Ethos, clarified and explained by a famous Greek philosopher, Aristotle; is one of the vital elements of communication and speaking. Thus, one of the essential purposes of ethos is to…

He sets out to solve the case with the help of his fiancee and nurse, and discovers the stories of the other tenants around him while procuring evidence…

A classic example, in movies like Princess Diaries, a girl is rejected by the populars because she is dorky, ugly and weird. Later, after finally acquiring the right shoes, hair and tastes, she is ‘’accepted’’ into their clique. In Donnie Darko, Kelly beautifully captures this paradox in one minute scene. The scene shows high school students for the most part by themselves, there are no cliques visible. What I get from this shot is that even if you fit in, you will get criticized for something…
