Rosalie Weiss- Week 2- Why I Prefer Cats to Dogs

 Cat – Minecraft Wiki

As many of you may know, I am terrified of dogs, and refuse to be in the same room as one, regardless of the size or breed. This fear likely stems from my lack of experience with dogs, as while I did have a dog when I was younger, he died when I was around seven years old, and I have not really interacted with one since. I did, however, interact with cats. My aunt has two cats that she got at least six years ago, and everytime I visited her, which was frequent as she also lives in boca, I would play with them. While I was definitely afraid of them at first, the more time I spent with them, the smaller my fear became. 

Everybody knows that cats are pretty chill. They just sit there looking cute, waiting for you to pet them. Dogs on the other hand, are super unchill. They will trample, chase, and bark at you, which is not something I enjoy. Still, there are some exceptions, with some cats acting like dogs and some dogs acting like cats. Even in these situations, I still find cats to be the superior pet, as I can’t help but find them to be cuter than dogs.

In the end of a day, whether you prefer cats or dogs depends on the individual. Personally, I vibe better with cats, but can see why others may favor dogs. What do you think? Are you a cat person or a dog person?

    Personally, I consider myself more of a dog person, but I definitely do see the appeal in cats. I have a cat myself, along with two dogs, and I love all three of them to death. I have noticed though that my dogs show me affection more often than my cat does. I find the constant affection dogs give outweighs the barking and chasing. Although, I still do love my cat, Abu. He may not be just as affectionate as my dogs, Rosie and Bella, but he definitely does know the most adorable ways to show us the love he has for us.

Ben Nikpour- Week 2: The Infamous Common App Essay

Image
     The common app essay is stressful, to say the least. This 650-word essay has a huge impact on our college admissions; an excellent essay can be the one thing that gets you into your dream school, while a bad essay will do the opposite. Knowing this, I spent a lot of time strategically preparing and thinking about what I was going to write about. I started planning out my essay towards the end of last school year and already had a solid start on it before the summer. At first, I had no clue what I was going to write. I had no idea where to start, and I felt that I had nothing interesting to talk about. I constantly freaked out at my parents, saying I couldn’t think of anything, and I wasn’t going to get into a school.           After calming down, I started by listing every major event or aspect of my life. Still, nothing stood out to me as a great topic, so I continued to write more things down and write notes on each topic. This allowed...

Leah Nagle - Week 3 - Pick a Poet (Rachel Long) - "Portent"

Image
For my poetry blog post this week, I decided on a poem called, “Portent” by Rachel Long. Long is a leader of Octavia - Poetry Collective for Women of Color, located in Southbank Center, London. I enjoy her poems because she incorporates her culture and life experience, being a woman of color, into her poems. This makes her poems personal and deep.  In “Portent,” one of the main aspects that Long brings up is the idea of social class. She claims that it takes, “three hundred years, about thirteen generations, to change your social class” (lines 8-9) and because of this, she feels trapped. Since she is a woman of color, it seems to me that she is attempting to express her frustration with lacking the opportunities other’s have just because of her identity.  Although the world has begun to shift towards giving everyone equal opportunities and rights, it is still a relevant issue that has not been properly solved yet. It breaks my heart that some people are not able to achieve wha...

Dina Bengelsdorf Week 10 - Things I Love to Do

Image
Things I Love to Do For my last blog (potentially), I thought it would be best to discuss things that make me the happiest. I feel that I have definitely talked about these subjects in one way or another because they are so important to me, but here I want to dedicate a post just to them. During school it is very hard to keep up with your physical and mental wellbeing, and therefore, doing things that keep us grounded are beyond helpful when things can become overwhelming. I have been working to stay active my entire life. I love riding my bike, going to the gym, and taking walks on or by the beach. Staying active is staying healthy and affects my everyday performance.  I feel that every exercise I do is a way for me to release my stress. Every bike ride is a way to absorb nature. Every walk on the beach is a way to clear my mind and to take a deep breath. Doing these things after school or on the weekends has proven to help me in my academic life. I come to school feeling refreshe...
