Sprite

... you probably can't tell, but I'm living up to my title of Lord of the Sighs at the moment. Some of you might remember the SoulSilver Scrublocke back in, what was it, early June? Totally forgot to continue that. I decided to just scrap that project altogether and play one of my favorite Pokemon games thus far, Black, because I'm black, too. Genius jokes are genius. Now, for those who don't know what this is, allow me to explain. A Nuzlocke is basically a more advanced way to play the in-game…

High Fructose Corn Syrup What do Oreos, Wonderbread, Sprite, Heinz Ketchup, and Mott’s Applesauce have in common? They all contain high fructose corn syrup. High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) sounds natural, since it uses the words “fructose” and “corn,” and seeing as the refiners want it to be called “corn sugar.” However, HFCS is not natural, and not good for consumption because it leads to obesity and other high risk health factors. Knowing what is okay to consume and not okay is confusing when…

I am applying for the course because I am hoping it will lead me onto work in the gaming industry. As the gaming industry is quite big and has multiple sub-aspects, studying them at your university will allow me to choose which aspect I would like to go into. The subject interests me because I have been a gamer most of my life, from the PS1 to the Xbox 360. I enjoy a wide variety of games which I play depending on the mood I am in. The sort of games I play are psychological games such as Alice:…

For my behavioral modification assignment, I decided to drink less soda. Before we were assigned this project, I had already begun changing my lifestyle to healthier eating habits by basically making healthy choices. My main goal for this assignment was to not completely stop drinking soda all together but to at least lessen the intake of how much soda I drink. My main motivation was for my skin. I was positive that the cutting out of sodas would have by far the biggest impact on clearing my…

that he is not beholden to the powers that be. He has Cartel patrons, but fancies himself an independent. More accurately a liaison between patrons and artisans. Tourlough sits stoically as the Middleman performs tedious security scans. Looking for sprites and other intrusive ware. The predictable active EM scans from his upgraded eyes, and undetectable observation of wavelengths, from terahertz to microhertz, depending on his particular…

In William Shakespeare's Macbeth, characters such as the three supernatural witches, Hecate, and Lady Macbeth use psychological manipulation, the act of exploiting or controlling someone by using deception and abusive tactics. They control and persuade the protagonist Macbeth to eventually commit atrocities that destroy not only himself, but the lives of many people he once trusted. Macbeth, though once humble and loyal to his king and country, loses his initial heroistic traits that he…

I’ve been writing forever. I did it all the time when I was a little kid (little, because I technically still am a “kid”); I began with animal-centric fables and eventually graduated to ten-pagers about kids with magical forests behind their houses. Even when I wasn’t writing, I was expressing in that same practiced way; I lectured imaginary audiences while making my bed and brushing my teeth every morning. The internal monologue never stopped, and neither did the laugh track; writing it down…
