Titanic

This I Believe Do you want to waste your life thinking about everything you do and say before actually doing and saying it? Everyone has done stupid things. Unfortunately, it’s a given trait that we all get when we’re born. But I say instead of fearing the next stupid decision you make, look forward to it. If it doesn’t work out for you, I also don’t think you should regret it. Let me try to explain my point to you through a story. A couple of weeks ago, I went to a camp with a church group.…

What is love? Love is an abstract concept with many different meanings and definitions which can range from dear friend to passionate lover. Many psychologists have 6 or more categories for love; however the Greeks define love into four different categories such as Eros, Storge, Agape, and Philia. Each with a different meaning, signifying different types of love that can be felt. We have experienced at least three of the four types in our life and may experience all four in our lifetime. Not…

so nervous, believe in yourself,” my dad said, “it’ll be ok’’. How can I not be super scared , I thought, there were so many people watching me. I hope it would turn out good at the end and I would feel a lot more calm. It felt like I was on the Titanic and hitting an iceberg. The crowd of people included really experienced people to people like me who had very musical little experience. I was surprised to see little kids a lot younger than me who were playing at a higher level than me. As…

Every student has a pet peeve; things that get under their skin (unbearable workloads, all-nighters, exams, etc.). You may not know it, but college professors have pet peeves too. The Rampage interviewed real professors to find out what their biggest pet peeves are and what you, the student, can do to avoid them. – Texting during Class Scott Moore, a Geology instructor from Fresno City College, notes, "Cell phone addiction is one. Even if I ask students to put away their cell phones or…

the other side of the attack. Lord is very well known for this style he writes his books with, as he is also known for his bestselling book, A Night to Remember, where he successfully captured occurring events that took place in the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. Walter Lord originally published Day of infamy in 1957, just in time for the sixtieth anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack.

Humans are generally cruel and ignorant. People aren’t selfless and they lack empathy. People can’t even use some sense to save themselves. The Titanic, for example, was a huge step for a more hedonistic lifestyle. The day came, and then, it sunk. Instead of taking precautions to save lives there were only enough lifeboats for the rich. The lack of caring and other important qualities makes humans their own worst enemies. This is exemplified by the way the characters act in “The Lottery” by…

in “The Hunger Games”, or when Romeo and Juliet died is a soulless monster. In movies, the audio and visual aids make everything sadder. Not even a twisted, evil person could resist crying when Mufasa died in “The Lion King”, or when Jack died in “Titanic”. In comic books, that feeling of grief is lost. There are only a handful of superheroes that have died and not yet returned. The only thing that comes back more than heroes is the sun. They have died and came back so many times, “Comic Book…

Many people harbor the misconception that rich people are greedy and want only for themselves. We get these "mind viruses" from movies like "The Titanic", "Superman", "Spiderman"... and the list goes on where poor people are good and rich people are bad. In reality, wealthy people are the greatest philanthropists of the world. This is because they attained their wealth by adopting the habit of giving…

Who truly is the best American? It’s surely a tough question to answer, considering there’s so much debate about the topic, but I feel compelled to say Billie Holiday. First of all, Holiday made a plethora of contributions to society and the way we look at each other. She was a fascinating black role model despite her flaws and an abundance of vices. Her stance on prohibition also aided in it being repealed. She expressed her disdain for racism boldly with her music. In addition to these factors…
