GREEN EYED Jealousy Rears its Ugly Head in Green Eyed Handsome, successful yuppie enjoys making others green with envy until he’s outdone by an unattractive, mysterious nemesis in Green Eyed. Green Eyed is a drama set in the 80s that takes us into the world of a preppy guy, who is the quintessential jerk. I like it because, like Trading Places, we get to see things from the rich guy’s point of view. The protagonist, Lloyd (Mark Leonard Winter) has it all, the big home with a breathtaking, mountainous

I watched as sushi was traded for samosas, and found myself seeking out the familiarity of like-minded Americans who, like me, were eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Yet with only a handful of students who came from a typical American public school, there were

foods though are not clearly defined, and as stated earlier, they have no particular foods or cuisine that can be said to have originated or to be American cuisine. The Chinese have their distinct cuisines like the Anhui and the Cantonese; Japan has Sushi, Pasta in Italy and Cheese as a dessert in France. America, on the other hand, seems not to possess a specific certain cuisine that can be claimed to be strictly and famously American. Thus, American food does not offer the culture identity that other

Cultural appropriation defines as someone from one culture taking or borrowing aspects of another culture that is not their own. “Appropriation occurs when a style leads to the racial [assumptions and] generalizations…where it [may have stemmed from], but is deemed as high-fashion, cool, or funny when the privileged take it for themselves” (Stenburg). In spite of the slight confusion, cultural appropriation is far more than the idea of pizza merging from Italian immigrants, and eventually becoming

It was not long ago when I fell in love with the University of Chicago. My fervor for UChicago rapidly grew from the moment I first heard about it. I was on the Metra headed to downtown Chicago with my friend, and she mentioned UChicago as her top school for college applications. As she talked about UChicago endlessly, my interest in the school piqued. My friend’s enthusiasm about UChicago amazed me and influenced me to conduct my own research on the school. The prestigious reputation of the school

The film can show the current social phenomena and problems, but also has a wide range of social influences. Film shows the underlying or already happening problems in society are brought to light through small events in life. In Snowpiercer, the Ice Age has arrived and the survivors of the human race on Earth have moved into this perpetual train, whose passengers have been divided by class due to the price of tickets. As time went on, the people at the bottom struggled to survive, and they, led

Name: Shailen Language Arts Period: 5 Date: 2024 Cafeteria Craze Literary Analysis In the short story Cafeteria Craze by Lynette Samuel, we are introduced to Syd, Max, Zach, and Lily. The kids wanted to take over the lunchroom so they could make the lunches more diverse. But the kids that they were serving didn’t like any of the diverse food that Syd, Max, and Lily were cooking. So, when it was Zach’s turn to lead the kitchen, he prepared a full meal of candy and sweets. The school didn’t like that

One very big first in my life was our first overseas duty station in Japan. This was such an adventure from start to finish, and I experienced many other firsts during that tie as well. The flight to Japan seemed like it took a lifetime, but that might be because I had a one year old on my lap most of the time. She had a seat, but she refused to sit in it at any given time. We finally made it to Japan and through customs and then came a three-hour bus ride to the base we were going to be stationed

When I was about 12 or anytime before then I didn’t really understand death. Like any little kid I just went through everyday thinking that no matter what tomorrow was guaranteed. I didn’t realize or even think that one day I would never be able to talk to, see, and enjoy somebody. However, one day changed all of this perspective. This day was October 22, 2012. I will never forget this day. October 22, 2012 was just another normal day when I woke up. It was a Friday and the high school had a home

‘back in the old days.’ Haven’t all kids rolled their eyes at that phrase? I was a very, very, very picky eater throughout my childhood. If there was a dish I didn’t like, my mom would give me some roasted seaweed to roll up my rice to make plain sushi (as I like to call it), and there goes another meal for another day. One
