Jake Mizel week 3 - why the zombie apocalypse is better to think about than the roman empire


     All over TikTok lately, men have been talking about their habit of thinking about the Roman Empire, I personally don't really resonate with that because I, like a few others that I've seen on the platform, think about the zombie apocalypse much more often. This is because I firmly believe that the zombie apocalypse is a far more beneficial thing for people to contemplate than the Roman Empire. I understand that there is much to be learned from the Roman Empire. However, it is a relic of the past, and Marc Antony cannot help you in the face of imminent danger.

    As an avid Zombie Apocalypse thinker, I am prepared for any brain eating challenges that I may encounter. Since the Zombie Apocalypse takes place in the future, there is a much higher likelihood that my thinking about it would pay off, and I would need to use the strategy's that I have devised because you never know when some zombies could show up, but I'm pretty dang sure that I'm not going to be transported back in time to the Roman Empire any time soon. therefore there is little to no practical benefit of thinking about it twice a week. Do you think more about the Zombie Apocalypse or the Roman Empire? What do you think you gain from it?

    I think about the zombie apocalypse so much! Like seriously, what would we do? Would I even survive, and how? Such a crazy concept!

Anna Shimonovitc: Week 9 - Northern Attitude by Noah Kahan (with Hozier)

Image
    I haven't actually listened to a lot of Noah Kahan songs, but I have listened to a lot of Hozier songs. I want to specifically discuss Hozier's new song, Northern Attitude, in heavy detail. It's not actually Hozier's song, but he is featured in it. It's a song by Noah Kahan, who you might know from his recently popular song, Stick Season. I don't know what other songs he sings, but oh my god. This new song. It's so amazing and if anyone argues with me they're wrong. The reason I'm even listening to it is because the Andrew Hozier-Byrne sings in it. And when I say listening I mean that I am in a perpetual state of listening to this song, always playing, even if it's just stuck in my head on a loop. The song is just such a good vibe. Like I have no other way to describe it because I'm not going to spend my time actually interpreting the lyrics as if I have nothing else to do besides wonder what some dudes were thinking when they were writi...

Josh Matheson - Week 9; First AP Lang Essay

Image
Last week, we had our first in class timed essay and let's just say it did not go according to plan.  Going into the first essay, I was focused on completing the essay within the 40 minutes and have a great thesis, that can be backed up with enough evidence.  The essay was both a success and a fail, as I finished in time which was one of my concerns, but I did not get specific enough and tie enough evidence back to my thesis.  I realized that even though I had the evidence the most important thing to explain is why the speaker uses that choice.  This generally is what destroyed me because I had the evidence, but did not get specific enough and just left everything vague.  Fortunately,  I am confident that next time will be better,  since this is my first AP essay and the best way to improve is through practice and experiences.  On this essay, I received a 2.5, which is not too good of a score, but at least I will have the revision in order to fix ...

Mia Garaz, Week 9, Nothing To Watch!

Image
With the various amounts of streaming services, such as YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, Max, and more, you would think the possibilities of films to watch are endless! However, lately, this has not been the case. I find myself scrolling for hours, and still, nothing catches my eye. Possibly, this is due to the algorithm. It may not be calculating as well as it should. Though, I don’t feel this is the case. I think there is a major lack of TV series and movies to view across all platforms. Even when they do come out with new releases, they tend to lack substance or an interesting plot. What I have noticed a lot is that the creators and directors are trying to create “relatable” content. Still, it just ends up being cringey (and in my opinion, overly politically correct). With such curated/censored content it destroys the reality and relatability that they were trying to achieve. The sadness of it all is, unfortunately, that it is extremely difficult for a “classic” to be made in this day and ag...
