Avital Horowitz - Week 8 - The Magic of Song

For as long as I can remember, I have always loved music. I don’t know what it is, but I honestly have no idea what my life would look like without it. Whether it’s making music, playing an instrument, singing, or even just simply listening to a song, I just cannot seem to get enough of it. I am not sure how to explain it, but whenever I hear a song that I really like, this feeling rushes through my body and makes me want to scream each and every lyric of the song at the top of my lungs. You would think that doing something like that would make you miserable afterward because you basically just put your throat through unmeasurable pain, but when I do it, I simply just want to do it again and again and again. Singing and listening to music finds a way to give me a rush of instant serotonin that makes me feel amazing. I know I have said this already, but there is just simply no way to explain the feeling it gives me.

I listen to music every day at some point or another. Whether that is in the car, at the gym, through my headphones, or even just in my room. I always find a way to sneak a song into my day. I don’t even have to listen to it, there is just always one playing in my head. I never seem to have a free moment without a song stuck in my head. Many people hate when they have a song stuck in their head and honestly I get why. Sometimes it can be pretty annoying. For me though, I do not really mind it most of the time. Having a song stuck in my head gives me a quick escape from what I am doing because it lets me absorb the song and enjoy it by myself.

Music has always been one of the most important aspects of my life. A life without music is a life that I would never want to even imagine. Do you listen to music? If so, what kind of music do you listen to?

    I love listening to music. I go through these stages where I listen to hours of music at a time. I also listen to all types of music. Music has definitely made an impact me, and it has been there at my highs and lows of life

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...
