To-Do List What am I/ are we going to become ten years from now? Quite a clichéd question indeed‚ but sometimes thinking about the distant future actually drives hopeful people just like me to continue pushing and thriving despite the hard challenges that come our way.

The Air Can Be Cleaner Than It Is Now There are people who believe that “fresh air” is an unlimited source. I personally used to think like that when I was a young. As I grew older‚ I learned that a simple thing‚ such as fresh air is infinitely available‚ is not true. The fact is‚ the troposphere‚ which is like a wall that covers the earth‚ is the only air that is available to us. No fresh air comes in‚ and no polluted air escapes (Harris‚ par. 3). Ironically‚ a giant thing like spaceship could

The Deaf President Now Movement at Gallaudet University was very interesting to watch. I never knew much about the movement until this ASL class‚ and I find this information to be important in learning history in the 1980’s. Now after researching information‚ the significance of the protest was definitely necessary for the deaf community/culture. In reading this article‚ I had never thought much about the deaf culture‚ even though I had seen deaf people in my work place. Looking back in time‚ I could
