In a garden bursting into life

     The moth is such an insignificant creature in this enormous world; however, Woolf believes that no matter how small a creature, it is still a complex being that embraces power. It looks out at the world through a window and “[flies] from one corner of his compartment, and after waiting there…to the other,” trying to escape his depressing life and into the one he wishes to be a part of (Woolf 696). The moth is like ordinary people in the world. They look out of their own lives or in the moth’s case a window and wish to be a part of a different life. The butterflies that are able to gaily fly around are like celebrities who are able to live the lives they wish lavishly.

     
     No matter how important a creature seems when it is alive; all individuals have the same impending fate. Death. Death does not wait or bypass anyone, no matter how rich, poor, beautiful, or ugly a being. The butterfly may be able to live a happier life than the moth, which is sadly trapped indoors, but both of them will end up dying. The moth tragically falls upon this fate and is helpless in saving itself. The butterfly, on the other hand, is still to be seen as to living a joyful life, but it too will one day die. No one will be able to defeat death because “death is stronger than I am” (Woolf 697).

Let's waste time...by spending time online but still use correct punctuation

Image
The world is a rapidly changing place and the reality is, people are changing and they are the ones who choose how to change the use of language and its punctuation. However, punctuation needs to still have concrete rules so a downfall of literacy will not occur and ruin the future. Social media has become a part of our everyday lives. Our hours are consumed by spending hours on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, texts, and emails. Most of the time these sites force users to contain their thoughts into a word limit and “users are forced to be concise and less flowery with language” (Source F). Although a site like Twitter “discourages wordiness” and “can actually make you a better writer”, in the words of Amanda Cosco, it is also damaging the abilities an everyday person should have. The executive editor of the New York Times, Bill Keller is “worried that new technologies erode our ability to do things like remember directions or memorize phone numbers…he argues that new technologies en...

zayn leaves one direction

Image
(beware: this is slightly dramatic and 100% embarrassing) On Wednesday March 25 th , 2015 a tragedy happened. Zayn Malik, 1/5 of One Direction, quit the band. If you look at the occurrence from different perspectives, it can be good or bad. MOSTLY BAD. Zayn’s perspective: For the this is my room lol past 5 years, he has been forced to act like a perfect, clean-cut boy. He is supposed to be a great role model for middle school girls and has to deal with millions of obsessed under-aged girls who claim that their ovaries explode every time he shoots them a smoldering glare. He’s in a boyband that (used to) wear matching outfits, sings bubblegum pop, and is under a contract that prohibits him from lashing out. He has the stereotypical bad boy persona because he wears black, has tons of tattoos, and smokes. BUT THE PERKS WAYYYYY OUTWEIGHT THE CONS BECAUSE HE HAS EARNED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, ACQUIRED WORLD FAME, ACHIEVED A POP STAR STATUS, TRAVELLED THE WORLD, AND CAN BASICA...
