Michael Hakim Week 11 - Moving

      In around a month or so, I will be moving houses. I know a lot of the people reading this right now have never been to my house, but the house I am living in now is pretty iconic to my family. We’ve lived in this house for over 8 years, or since I was around 9 years old. That’s a pretty long time to be living in one house. 

     While I am really excited to move to a bigger house, it’s going to be sad leaving my current house and neighborhood. Though it’s small, there has always been something special about my current neighborhood. It’s small, peaceful, and really nice. I have also loved living in this current house. It has a very open layout and has a lot of space so that my family has room. I am sure that the next family that moves here will love it.

     The next house I am moving to is much bigger than my current home. It is a two-story house and has a lot of room. It has everything we need, and is completely worth the move, as it is an upgrade in every sense. The community has a gym in it and is bigger than my current one. I am looking forward to meeting my new neighbors. I am sure that the basketball games we will have are going to be great.

     Though I am a bit sad to leave, I am definitely excited to move. I can’t wait to see what new adventures await in my new neighborhood.

    I get that feeling from when I had to move from Florida living there for around 14 years of my life to a totally different place than Florida, New York, which is insanely cold and its especially difficult since when I moved to New York that summer I was going into my Freshman year, which is hard because it is going to highschool into a totally different new school and everyone already has their own groups of friends, since it was a small town and everyone from the highschool went to elementary school with each other.

    Mazal tov on the move! I've moved so often that it got boring for me to stay in one place for so long. I never had an attachment to a physical home. I find a home is special because of the people.

    Two years ago during the summer I went to California in order to pack up my house that I had lived in my whole entire life (15 years). It was really hard and every time I go to California I really miss that house and all the memories I had within those walls, and it makes me really sad. I'm still really hung up on the fact that I lost my childhood home, but I'm also really happy that I now have a permanent home in Florida. I just though about how its so much better to have two homes than one too!

Ben Nikpour - Week 10: Oscar Viewers are Dropping

Image
     Before a few days ago, I did not know much about the Oscars. I knew it was an award show, but besides that, I was basically clueless. It wasn’t until the Will Smith and Chris Rock situation that I spent the time to look into what the Oscars are.       For some background, the Oscars, properly known as the Academy Awards, are awarded to artists in the film industry. The first show was in May of 1929. At its peak, in 1998, the Oscars brought in over 55 million viewers; that same year was the release of one of the biggest movies of all time: Titanic. Since then, viewers have been dropping. In 2020, the Oscars had their lowest amount of viewers with only 24 million people watching the event. In 2021, the Oscars broke their 2020 record of lowest viewers by only bringing in less than 11 million people. This year the Oscars brought in close to 17 million viewers which is an improvement but not by much. Award shows like the Grammys, Emmys, Golden Globes, ...

Noah Bard Week 1 - The Misunderstanding of our Modern-Day Gladiators

   When I hear the word gladiator, I Immediately think of the Colosseum and humans being eaten by lions. However, times have changed, and so has the term gladiator. I’m talking about the sport of MMA, and more specifically, UFC fighters. Besides the few million crazed fight fans out there like myself, the current consensus about MMA is that it’s stupid. At face value, it’s a very sensible conclusion to make. Why in the world would anybody want to risk their lives on national television, or in that case at all? Well, here’s why.      Every day before that bell rings, these men and women are mastering the art of fighting. It takes much more than just supernatural athleticism; it ultimately comes down to the fighter's mental fortitude. Every slight move in the eyes, feet, and hands of your opponent must be taken into account to win. It’s a common stereotype to think that fighters aren’t very smart and not only because of what they do for a living, but oftentimes it...

Ariella Green Week 7: The Airport

  Ariella Green Week 7: The Airport      Don’t ya hate going to the airport?       I absolutely can not stand going to the airport. As I’m sure most of you know, I am very organized and like to plan out everything. When things don’t go according to the plan, it stresses me out.       Thursday morning, I assumed I would have an easy experience flying from PBI to JFK on JetBlue airlines. Little did I know, there would be many little bumps along the way that I had to deal with while trying to catch my flight.       First, we arrive at the airport at around 10:30 for our 11:45 flight. I personally believe that you should always give yourself enough time at the airport, so you don’t have to rush at the gate or if you want to make a purchase. We also had to face the challenge of finding somewhere to park, which is nearly impossible sometimes. After searching for a while, we found...
