Culture is more than just a part of a person’s daily life, it is an aspect of us that shapes the way we view others and the world. Our cultures are dynamic and often entails distinct values, morals, beliefs, and items that came from many generations. How much does culture really inform the way we view others and the world though?

E. E. Cummings said, “It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.” He is completely right. From my freshman year to my senior year, I’ve grown up, but not just by becoming more mature. I have learned from mistakes, become more responsible, stopped trying to be someone I’m not, and, best of all, embraced who I am. Throughout my three years in high school, I learned that confidence in yourself is very important. They say “confidence is key”, but it’s not just key, it’s essential. I…

The Phenomenon that is Snapchat Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter are known as the “Holy Trinity” of social media. However, there is a relatively new app that is being talked about and ranked highly among the masses. This app is called Snapchat. “In just a few seconds, [Snapchat] allows you to showcase your love for waffles or make your nostrils part of the Google logo. It’s magical.” (Simcik) Here’s how Snapchat works; you take a picture (there’s even a video option!), add a filter, maybe some…

I had originally planned to meet Sachy, Alvaro, and Victoria at the Getty, however both these plans fell through as we all clearly have very poor organization skills. So on a breezy Sunday Morning I embarked on a solo mission to LACMA. Well not really because my mother was lovely enough to accompany me. When I initially woke up that morning, I was overcome with regret of waiting until the last weekend to get this assignment done. The whole ride there, the clouds threatened rain and my mother…

I 'm thirteen years old when my mom drives me across town to a mental hospital. She 's worried about me, she says, her eyes avoiding mine. I 'm worried about me, too. I have felt this way for as long as I can remember, but during health class I find the word for it- depression. When we arrive, I 'm interrogated. Do I do drugs? Am I part of a gang? Do I worship the devil? Do I harm myself? After an hour of prying, the lady asking all these questions shuffles her stack of papers. She takes off her…

At first sight, the issue might appear trivial, however, several customers recently asked me the following question: “What is the difference between the wines from the Rioja and those from the Ribera del Duero?”. What's more, according to my experience, the next question tends to concern the price difference. This is why I thought an article would be the ideal opportunity to come back on the topic, especially considering that Christmas is at the door and we should be thinking about which wine to…

Tiffany normally sprinted through her morning routine, only her morning routine was actually an evening one because she worked midnights. A cup of java and a light meal energized her enough for a short run. Something about putting her feet to the pavement was extraordinarily exhilarating tonight. Then again, she always did have a penchant for the dramatic. This was going to be her year, no more staid lifestyle for her. Everything that had been hard, was now coming easy for her. Kicking carbs and…

investing in the best employees. They strongly believe in the idea that hiring talented personnel and retaining those employees was instrumental to the success of Netflix. “The best thing you can do for employees – a perk better than foosball or free sushi – is hire only “A” players to work alongside them. Excellent colleagues trump everything else.” (McCord, 2014 p.72). When employers invest in the success of their business by hiring and cultivating the most talented employees, they benefit…
