Hannah Shinder: Week 6- Does what we wear affect our actions?

    This week I chose to write about a topic that may sound strange, but I have been thinking a lot about it recently. Do you feel as if what you wear affects the mood you are in? To me, I think that it does. 

    When I wake up in the morning I say to myself what do I feel like wearing today? So there it goes… I have a certain mood. Everyone has a certain mood which makes them not want to wear a certain pair of clothing over the other. For instance, when I think of Sunday, I think of a cozy day filled with chilling at home and doing homework. When I wake up, my first instinct is to get dressed. Now, I don't go and put on a dress because that definitely would not be fitting for any occasion. I don’t wear a dress unless I am going to a party or a very fancy event. Additionally, I don’t put on jean shorts. Instead, I immediately go to the section in my closet where I have sweatpants, sweatshirts, leggings, and all my comfy clothes. 

    When I wear these types of clothes, my mindset also becomes the same. As soon as those comfy clothes are put on, I know I am ready for the day and I know that I am able to enjoy the day as comfy as I could be. Who cares about the way you look, instead, do whatever you are feeling!



Do you also choose what you wear based on the mindset you are in?

    I definitely think clothing affects our mood. I do something similar to this as I like to set out specific outfits or pieces of clothing for specific moods. I then wait until I am in that mood to wear them.

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

Image
   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...
