Mumpkin Spice Lattes In New England
September 22 marked the first day of the season of pumpkin spice, commonly known as fall. To many white girls around the country, this is the best time of year, because during this time, society has once again deemed sweaters, pumpkin spice beverages, and unnecessary photos and decorations socially acceptable. Personally, although I do enjoy wearing cozy sweaters, the other common “joys” of fall disgust me. Basically, I find New England’s reaction to fall quite Katastrophic.
If I am being brutally honest, I am not a fan of pumpkin spiced anything, with the exception to pumpkin muffins of course. I think that pumpkin spice lattes are extremely overrated, and even more overpriced. Seriously, for students struggling to understand the concept

    What Does Governor Bellingham Symbolize In The Scarlet Letter

    In the 1660s, the number of African-Americans among the entire population of New England was 1.7%. The percentage of found-out adulteresses was even less. Nevertheless, a truly gifted seamstress such as Hester Prynne wasn’t standing on ever street corner. The public all agreed that ordinarily, finery and indulgence was frowned upon in the Puritanic society. However, some held the opinion that Governor Bellingham was keeping enough distance between himself and Hester Prynne, and that it was appropriate for him to have employed her to fashion embroidered gloves for state occasions; Others frowned upon his decision and believed he should not have employed Hester Prynne.…

    Cough Lunches In The Late 19th Century

    However, the first lunch boxes weren't for kids at all. In the late 1800s, blue-collar workers carried their lunches to work in metal pails, which protected their food from the rigors of the workplace. In fact, your lunch pail illustrated your place on the economic scale -- a lunch pail meant you couldn't afford a hot noontime meal. This didn't stop children from wanting to emulate their working parents, however. Soon enough, kids fashioned their own lunch pails from tin boxes that were originally used to hold cookies or tobacco. Early mass-produced lunch pails for children resembled picnic baskets and featured illustrations of kids playing.…

    Mia's Family Like Caffeine Drinks Like The Mintchip Lattes Kim

    Mia thinks Adam will like her more, but he tells her he doesn’t care what she looks like because she’s the same person with brown hair or with blonde. The last major symbol in this novel is coffee. Mia’s family likes coffee and the blacker the better. She decides that dark coffee is the cool way to drink it. According to her in chapter ten, there are “people who drank plain coffee and people who drank gussied-up caffeine drinks like the mintchip lattes Kim was so fond of.” That was a harsh bun on her best friend. One of the reasons Mia felt she could leave Kim behind was that she wasn’t cool enough. Mia says she applies to coolness, but the criteria is random. She’s confused about her identity which is why she hasn’t learned to think outside…

    Personal Narrative: Lake Tahoe Ride

    This spring I spent two-weeks in New York visiting my daughter and her family. I spend a lot of time in the city, and I love it, not only because my daughter has chosen to create and raise a family in Brooklyn, but also because of its walkability. I’m not much of a shopper, but I do like to watch other shoppers, particularly those who dress as if they’d like to be watched.…

    Native American Mascot Research Paper

    Imagine yourself at a sporting event. You are enjoying the last bite of your foot-long hot dog, anticipating the moment the half time show will begin. Out comes the shoe-less, plaid-shirt wearing, ripped and dirty blue jean sporting mascot. His name is “Billy Bob-- the wildest hillbilly in the boondocks.” He goes running around, chugging down his fake moonshine and spitting tobacco. Being a native of Appalachia, you find yourself upset, and state this to be extremely offending. However, your sister who is attending the game with you casually laughs it off, stating that it is just hilarious. The disagreement between siblings from the same background can be compared to the discontent many people face when concerning the use of Native…

    Myths of a Latin Woman

    Living in a mixed cultural world, Cofer relies on her family and church to protect her but soon realizes how she dresses will cause her many problems with Americans. She learns quickly that the way she dresses gives males the idea that she is easy. According to Latin tradition, women are allowed to dress up for special occasions to give males the opportunity to express their interest in them but, according to Cofer’s customs, the men must never cross into obscenity (205). Americans are not taught these traditions, so it would be easy for these guys to misinterpret Cofer for something she is not. It isn’t only the boys who misinterpreted Cofer’s unique style of dress. The girls and women also frowned upon her choice of attire and viewed her as too mature for her age. As a young girl, Cofer is influenced by the women who had grown up on a tropical island where wearing bright colors and showing their skin was a way to keep cool as well as to look sexy (205). Cofer needs to realize she…

    Should Thanksgiving Be Celebrated

    So this November, rather than mount another attack on the national mythology around Thanksgiving -- a mythology that amounts to a kind of holocaust denial, and which has been critiqued for many years by many people -- I want to explore why so many who understand and accept this critique still celebrate Thanksgiving, and why rejecting such celebrations sparks such controversy.…

    Sociology and Youth Sub-cultures

    The impact of subculture within the United States is evident in the celebration of seasonal traditions. December is dominated by the religious and commercial celebration of Christmas holiday – an event well-entrenched in the dominant culture of American society. However, the Jewish subculture observes Hanukkah, African Americans observe the relatively new holiday of Kwanzaa and some atheists join in rituals celebrating the winter Solstice (K.Peterson, 1992).…
