We’ve all been here before. The doctor asks you to cover one eye, and read a line of completely random letters. It’s supposed to be easy, but when I was in first grade, I couldn’t even see the large “E” on the top. Humiliated, I watched as my doctor wrote a prescription for glasses, and a few years later, contact lenses. Without my glasses, I was essentially blind, and often humiliated, as I called people by the wrong name because I couldn’t make out their face or wrote with my face inches from the

Pop culture has a way of making change that rivals some influential political figures. Singers are no exception; by spreading their message to offering a form of entertainment they can impact a nation. Since 1848, the French chanteuse is a symbol of French identity; an example would be Edith Piaf due to the influence on French culture. France’s belle époque was one of the highest points in France’s history and it is the root to why Paris France is one of the strongest tourist destinations in the
