Sit Down

Technology has shaped the world in many ways. People have no more time to just sit down and read a book, or even just sit down and reflect on the world and think about what this planet has become in the past 200,000 years. Ray Bradbury really shows us this in his novel Fahrenheit 451. To start off, Bradbury warns society of the dangers in technology, and how it can take over anyone’s life by using the television. He shows us this through the life of Mildred and how she finds that her true family…

After a few long hours, I am awakened by a slight tap on my hand which is hanging over the small bench. I peek my bright green eyes open and squint from the blazing sun in the distance. I look around and don’t see anything that caused the tapping. I sit up, yawn, and scratch at my feline-like ears. I yawn once more and stretch my stiff human bones. Suddenly, the tapping that awoke me from my sleep repeats, but this time it’s on my leg and it hurts! I jumped up from the old bench and fall on my…

Some people have stories about destiny and plans for the universe, some people have stories about fate and the inevitable doom of the universe, and some people never think about issues bigger than those in their immediate existence. When it comes down to it, we only know so many facts. Beyond those we can only guess. The difference in someone who makes those guesses based solely on his own perspective and someone who makes guess based on objective facts will be the difference between longterm…

important calories. So while millions of well-intended individuals continue doing sit-ups and crunches in the hope of burning belly fat, I would like to save you the hassle. The most important reason that I do not counsel making sit-ups a part of your belly fat loss program, aside from the incontrovertible fact that they do not burn belly fat, is that impose a lot of stress on your lower back. Each time you perform a sit-up you are essentially wedging the cushioning intervertebral discs…

The group of friends standing right in front of us jumped and sang every word of the songs being sung. We were only 30 seconds into the first song he sang, there was no one in the crowd in sight just standing there. Days before, I remember counting down for the day to approach. Waiting for that day filled with country music, sunshine, cowboy boots, and hats. It was the stereotypical perfect day, i've been waited for this the entire summer, ever since we heard of it on Wild Country 99. With, a…

Have you ever been in a "flipped" classroom? Well picture this: Rows of desks filled with bored students filling out worksheets for 90 minutes to an hour and a half, while a teacher sits and eats their breakfast. Finally the students are home, but instead of doing some homework, they have to sit down and watch five or six lectures online, as if the day wasn’t long enough already. You may not have even heard of a flipped classroom before. Many people probably haven’t heard of this concept, as it…

Technology has changed how families come together and has caused them to lose their connection.…

As I walk in the cafeteria passing crowds of wild people, I find a seat in the corner of the lunchroom, where barely anyone sits. I felt depressed. Why is it me who is always pointed out at the wrong mistakes I do, when there are other people who make mistakes, too? I ask myself. I’m the only one who always gets pointed out and bullied. As I think to myself, tears run down my cheek, and suddenly, a group of kids comes up to me. The bullies. “ Oh my gosh, why is Kaylee crying like always? Does…
