Netflix

parks, video games, and hand held devises all are made from new technologies and give people entertainment. Along with that entertainment though, they could bring a major time waster. A common activity for college students is to watch Netflix, but sometimes Netflix consumes massive amounts of time and cause a lack of productivity shown in figure 3. “It can be easy for people to shirk their studies because any movie they want to watch is available to stream within seconds” (Butler). I enjoy…

The book “Looking For Alaska” by John Green is a great book for adolescents. This book has many messages that Green expresses the character's feelings. One of them is that often the view we have on people is not who they truly are. For example, in the book, Alaska is glorified by her friends, she is confident and rebellious, but when she passed away, her friends were scared to find out what was under the cigarettes and glass bottles. They end up finding out that she was actually very vulnerable…

I had things that would be deemed unnecessary on my list, such as lotions, perfumes, end tables, television, Netflix, and bed frames. I got rid of the bed frames because I know several people who don’t have them anyway, and I got rid of the TV and Netflix because even I do not watch TV or use services such as Netflix because I am so busy with homework. I figured if my family wanted to watch something like a TV show or movie they could probably find it on YouTube…

A Netflix original series, boasting only eight episodes. Four child actors huddled around a ten-hour marathon of Dungeons & Dragons. A mother communicating with her lost son via Christmas lights, purchased on layaway. An unlikely friendship between the smart, pretty young woman and the resident weirdo. A supernatural, mysterious young girl with an affinity for Eggo waffles. It might not sound like it works, but it does. While this summer’s Ghostbusters revival became the new punchline to every…

Introduction In 1966 the Beatles released their ‘Revolver’ album with the hit song of ‘Taxman’. Within the context of the song George Harrison articulated the excessive and unfair nature of taxation with “...If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street, If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat, If you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet...” This song was written with the intention of protesting the excessive taxation by the United Kingdom’s Wilson government, which…

A political action committee often referred to as a PAC is “A popular term for a political committee organized for the purpose of raising and spending money to elect and defeat candidates.” PACs generally are created to represent specific interests. The interests different PACs represent vary greatly. Some PACs support business interests, others support labor or ideological interests. PACs first appeared in a significant way after the US Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947 that…

Making a murderer is a popular new Netflix series that widely criticizes the criminal justice system in a small rural community of Manitowoc County Wisconsin. Steven Avery, the main character in the series, is convicted of the rape of Penny Beernsten but is later exonerated. Then just two years after his release, he is convicted for the killing of Teresa Halbach. All of the initial evidence that is recovered makes a good case proving that Avery in fact was liable for the crime but after time the…

Throughout the day, I find myself going through the motions of life without thinking twice. I wake up, go to school, go to work or dance, do homework, then go to bed. In between activities, I spend a majority of my time on my phone or watching Netflix. I rarely, if ever, think twice about the privileges that I have been given because of the social class I was raised in. It was not until after I started volunteering to do service work that I realized how fortunate I was. Most of the people I…

The summer was always my favorite time. My thoughts on summer are that you are supposed to be so excited to have it. Once you get it you get so bored by the end of the summer that you want to go back to school. Sure there are the fun activities and a vacation, but even then by the end you want to go back to school. I do not remember the summers from elementary school very well. I do know that every year since the third grade I go to my grandmother’s house in Tennessee for at least a week. When…
