On one particular morning, I was eating breakfast with my mother, Ceres, as usual. I was feeling adventurous that day so I asked my mother whether or not I could go out to the forest. Reluctantly, she said yes, but she told me to be careful. I went on my way and trekked out into the forest. The forest was dark and mysterious and it looked as though people rarely journeyed through here. While In the forest, I came across a young man and thus; that’s where the story begins. “Hello” said the young man. This man seemed to be very kind and considerate. “I’m Pluto; the king of the forest. May I ask you what your name is?” “P-Proserpina” I replied hesitantly. “Well then Proserpina, would you consider accompanying me to my castle?” I thought about his request for a moment. My mother did tell me to be careful and the fact that a complete stranger is asking me to go to his castle with is does seem questionable, but he seems like a nice man so I didn’t think the situation would turn sour. To him I said “I would love to accompany you to your castle. I just hope to be back sometime this evening.” “That won’t be an issue” said Pluto. It was when I hopped onto his carriage when I started to feel unsure about the situation. I was encompassed with a sense of anxiety as we traveled among the uneven, dirt forest. As we grew closer to reaching the castle, the forest was becoming more and more darker, and I heard a lot of strange noises. When we reached the castle, an uneasy feeling came upon me as the ambiance of the area was that of loneliness and despair. I saw that Pluto’s demeanor changed drastically throughout the trip to the castle as he seemed to be more stoic and unpersonable; unlike the guy I met in the forest. Pluto whispered something to one of the guards and before I knew it; I was grabbed by the arm and whisked away to a dark room. This room consisted of only a window, a bed, and a bed stand. Pluto came to the room and said “I’ve been

    Constructing this story first with the campfire is the cliché atmosphere for the bonding of man and his offspring. Significantly, the selective detail of the pine falling from the tree foreshadows the similar genealogical-biological proverb, “the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree”. Building on this mutuality, the audience can infer the strain that will soon occur between the father and the son. Nature alludes to the genealogy between man and father. When the narrator expresses, “when you slept inside the tent it seemed always that it was raining outside because the needles from the pine kept falling…,” one can conclude the agony that will soon come from the one who inflicts this pain. Conclusively, the imagery reflects a correlation, but a sense of authority and…

    Michael Jordan is arguable the best basketball player who ever played the game. A phenomenal athlete with the unique combination of fundamental soundness, grace, speed, power, artistry, and an unquenchable competitive desire, Jordan single-handedly redefined the NBA superstar. The thing that separated Jordan from the rest of the all-time greats was his compulsive need to win.

    In today's world technology began to play a major role in people's lives in many ways. Technologies such as computers, cell phones, iPads, etc. give people an opportunity to get away from the real world. Other technologies, especially medical technologies have advanced so much that people are able to get DBS, deep brain stimulation, which is a surgery that implants a medical device, to improve their brain and to help them live a better life. But after the surgery does the person become more or less authentic? In Lauren Slater’s essay “Who Holds the Clicker?”, Slater studies the symptoms and experience of thirty-six years old Mario Della Grotta, who is diagnosed with obsessive – compulsive disorder, or OCD. He suffers from a live of looped-loop in which he repeats actions fearing incompleteness. In Sherry Turkle’s essay, “Alone Together,” Turkle explores the idea of authenticity and how in the future robots could offer humans better relationships as well as a better life. We ask how much technological control is too much control and whether these growing advancements in technology shape our ethical choices and issues. Society is vulnerable to technology; technology meets our human needs and because of that technology has complete control of us today. One can argue that after DBS surgery people become more authentic because they are new and improved. But in actuality, chemical and surgical “improvements,” especially of the brain, make people less authentic, but are justified if the improvements are medically necessary.…

    In a small, rural town called Arlington in Vermont, playing sports was a normal thing to do. It was nothing special it was just a way to waste time. There were only three sports you could play, soccer, basketball, and baseball. No football, hockey, etc. For me though, I loved the smell of the fresh grass when I was on the soccer field and the basketball courts. I loved when my parents watched me from the sideline and I could hear them cheering me on. It was just the best feeling to have. As I grew up in Vermont I never really knew how a big town or city felt like being in. I was in a school with only 400 kids in the whole high school! There was no loud traffic or packed mall, it was just farms and the pond. You had to make your own fun out of things. That’s why I loved to play sports.…
