My absolute favorite movies are The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. I know that these are two vastly different movies but what they have in common is that they are both comedies and musicals. I love musical comedies, mainly because I grew up in the era of High School Musical but also because I love music. Music is one of my passions (even though I can not sing or play an instrument for my life) because it is so expressive. Some of my favorite musicians are Marilyn Manson…

In Rocky Mountain Middle School, there are only bathrooms for men and women. We should have gender neutral bathrooms in our school. If we had gender neutral bathrooms in our school, it would make genderqueer (transgender and non-binary) questioning students and feel much safer and better represented in their own school.

This inflates our perception of human actions on Earth because it shows that humans are making an obvious enough impact that is viewable from space. On the other hand, Life’s Rocky Start discusses more in depth about microbes, which makes viewers reconsider humans’ impact. Simon Lewis and Mark Maslin, authors of “Defining the Anthropocene,” explain that extensive farming from roughly 8,000 years ago caused a “CO2 inflection…

Homosociality in Glee experiences a dramatic change due to the forming relationship between Kurt and Finn.

While decorating the room, Finn calls Kurt’s decorations “faggy,” to which Kurt’s manly father Burt responds with kicking Finn out of the house (“Theatricality”). The…

For my musical ethnography, I was originally going to attend a showing of the “Rocky Horror Picture Show”, but it ended up being sold out last minute. At that point, I began to worry because that was the only event I had planned to attend.

I quickly looked up services in my area for the next day and came across a website…
