In the essay “Don’t Blame the Eater‚” David Zinczenko describes himself as a kid who would eat regularly at fast food restaurants until he got “lucky”. He argues that most teenagers eat fast food instead of healthy and nutritious food. I‚ on the other hand‚ had a very different experience as a child. At my house there was always an emphasis on nutritional health. From an early age I had a vast amount of knowledge about which foods to eat and which to avoid. My dad is very particular about the

I chose the song “Don’t Panic” by Coldplay because I strongly believe it reflects myself‚ and my life quite accurately‚ which expresses my beliefs. The song “Don’t Panic” is a pessimistic/optimistic song that can be especially shown in some lines of the lyrics. The pessimistic side of the song shown by “Bones sinking like stones” expresses that we are all going to go through some sort of suffering that we will have to endure. This line relates to a part of my life as a child living in New York‚ which
