When I was younger and technology did not have a big impact on me, I read for hours on end, but now as I have gotten older and technology is all around me, I would rather scroll through Instagram and read about other peoples lives than read a novel.

“The unexamined life is not worth living.” Socrates, the great Greek philosopher, has never spoken truer words. The unexamined life is a recurring theme in both Plato’s The Allegory of the Cave and Richard Wright’s The Library Card. There are many ways to achieve enlightenment, for example, going out and obtaining information, through individualism, learning from mistakes, becoming an intellectual reader, or contemplation.

The human imagination tends to fascinate over the anonymous discoveries and the unseen images of Space. However, we must control our desire to explore Space by putting the financial and the psychological impact ahead of us. The effort and the cost for space exploration is not proportional to the wealth it promises, which in result could become a burden for the American citizens. According to Source E, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration have dedicated $5.3 billion to space exploration

Year after year, millions of tickets are sold for movies like “Saw”, “Orphan,” or “Halloween.” The consumption of horror movies is a worldwide phenomenon and one that leaves most psychologists baffled. Many hold the belief that “people like to experience pleasant emotions,” so it is not entirely logical why so many choose to suffer through the violence and aggression displayed in most thrillers, which very rarely evoke “pleasant” emotions. For most people, the attraction to scary movies comes from

Being famous seems like a good idea at first Because you get a lot of followers on social media.

Taking a photograph of myself that signified something of what it means for me personally and maybe other students like me to be a university student today does more than just record a moment in my life. It shows the world what I care the most about. There are some people who agree with me but that doesn't mean that everyone in the world have the same idea of what it means to be a university student today but in my opinion it means hanging out with your good friends and doing things together.
