Bursting A Negative Bubble
UNITED STATES—Negative energy, I’m not a fan of it. I hate being around it and I do my best to eliminate those people who want to bring negative energy into my bubble. Why? It spreads like a plague. It raises a big question as to why some people harp on negative energy, when they can shift their focus on...
Ushering In A New President
UNITED STATES—Well, Friday, January 20, 2017 was Inauguration Day. Yep, after 8 years, President Barack Obama’s duties as the First Commander of Chief officially came to an end and Donald J. Trump was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States of America. It was a decisive day for many Americans. Some tuned into the live swearing...
Danger On The Roads
UNITED STATES—Driving is indeed a privilege. That is a saying that I have heard time and time again, and it’s very true. Controlling a vehicle on the road can be treacherous if the person behind the wheel has no idea what they are doing. So it raises the big question, should the driving age be elevated to ensure younger...
The Professor From Hell
UNITED STATES—I have had plenty of professors throughout my college career, both as an undergraduate and a graduate student. I am a firm believer that teachers are some of the most underrated individuals in our society. I mean the ability to teach is no easy task to say the least. However, I’ve never ran into a professor that I...
The Importance Of MLK Day
UNITED STATES—Monday, January 16, 2017 is a very important day in American history. For some it is just another day off from work or school, but there is far more at stake. Why?

What To Do When You Are Sick?
UNITED STATES—Being ill or sick as most of us like to call it is no fun feeling. For many Americans, when we get sick it usually lasts for a day or so, however, I think any cold, sore throat, stomach ache or just overall feeling of dread takes more than a day to recover from.
I bring this situation to...
What Makes A Powerful Speech
UNITED STATES—We have discussed in the past the importance of public speaking, however, we have not yet discussed how important a speech is in the public sphere. Why has this conversation suddenly come to light? I think most of you might already know the answer: awards season! This is the time of year, where we see big time celebrities...
The Importance Of Celebrating A Birthday
UNITED STATES—Birthdays, they come around once a year people, and with that assertion, they should be celebrated if you ask me. However, the older I get, I see the importance of a birthday not being as important as I once considered them. I’m not only speaking from my perspective, but a lot of friends and family members that I...
Setting Feasible Standards For That Resolution
UNITED STATES—Well America, 2016 is over, and I’m ecstatic! I really have not been happier to kick-off a New Year and 2017 I have high hopes for. Like many Americans, I am also setting resolutions for 2017, the biggest being eliminating unnecessary stress. Stress is something we all encounter in life, but at the same time, I’ve learned that...
How To Deal With Embarrassment?
UNITED STATES—Have you ever been embarrassed? Of course you have, all Americans have it is a part of daily life for most people. Rather it’s asking a person out on a date and being rejected, falling down or up the stairs (yes, I’ve seen it happen), or doing something that just makes you the talk of the town. Why...
