with melanoma. According to The Skin Cancer Foundation, “ Melanoma is the most dangerous form of skin cancer, these cancerous growths develop when unrepaired DNA damage to skin cells (most often caused by ultraviolet radiation from sunshine or tanning beds) triggers mutations (genetic defects) that lead the skin cells to multiply rapidly and form malignant tumors. If melanoma is recognized and treated early, it is almost always curable, but if it is not, the cancer can advance and spread to…

Dan Brown once stated: “History is always written by the winners. When two cultures clash, the loser is obliterated, and the winner writes the history books-books which glorify their own cause and disparage the conquered foe…” (“Quotable Quote”, 2015). The white settlers traveled over to the “new world” to begin anew and to write their own history. However, the land had been settled for thousands of years before the white settlers invaded. Native Americans wanted to handle the situations at hand…

1) During the week, I am usually preoccupied with school homework, extra-curricular activities and as a result, I go to bed early so I am able to wake up the next morning to complete the same routine. The only time I spend with my family is during dinner when we eat together. Eating together is considered a family standard to maintain the relationship. Now that my sister is at university in Ottawa, I don’t get to see her as much as I used to; and because some of my weekends are also occupied by…

This place I envisioned for myself is the same place I still find myself going back to in my mind, even today for example when I learned one of my classes might prevent me from going to pharmacy school in the fall…

Growing up, I was constantly told, “drugs are not okay”, or rather “drugs will kill you”. Because I was younger, I did not particularly understand what was meant by this, because I was, “just too young to understand”. As I got older, I began to understand why my elders reiterated this point numerous times. Because drugs can indeed terminate in death, but not every drug. The drug I am specifically referring to is marijuana. Now that I am old enough I am able to comprehend what effect drugs can…

Bastardized versions of Native American history have been widely accepted within the media, which is often seen from classic Western films to some of our children’s beloved Disney adaptations. Such has caused many of the undereducated to hold a belief that the extent of Native American history is one of rebellion upon horseback while shooting rifles in the air, and attempting to scalp any “white man” who dared trespass onto their defined territory. This could not be further from the truth. Prior…

things that make me tempted to be unchaste. I feel like many girls can relate to this one because we do things to our bodies sometimes for guys and acceptance. Eating disorders, not leaving the house without pounds of makeup on, and going to the tanning beds 24/7, are a few of the many things girls do, to get guys attention. However, many guys are not attracted by girls who do those things. Boys can help girls by the way they treat them. It is your actions that affect girls. Women can tell when…
