People of all ages across the world use social media. As of May 2014, 87 percent of adults used the internet. Seventy-three percent used some kind of social network, and about 64 percent logged in at least once a day (Skiba 199). Several good things can come from using social media, but there are also many bad things that can occur. Connections can be made but lives and relationships can be destroyed just as easily. Social media is not only changing how the world communicates, but it is also changing how people relate with others. One of the good things about social media is the fact that people who are normally shy and antisocial have a chance to be more sociable online. In real life, they may be nervous when talking to new people, or maybe…

Instead he decided he would need to kill him to gain vengeance. In tun this caused Hamlet to commit a murder he did not intend out of impulse, both of his childhood friends…

MY DECEMBERS We live, we enjoy, we love and that is good. That’s the real LIFE, we think. When it comes to hurdles and hassles, we forget that that’s life too. Life isn’t all about the good times and memories. Rather our living becomes life when it’s jumbled with both good and tough times. Come to think of it, would the enjoyment really matter had it been the order of the day? Therefore, sit down, enjoy the good memories you are making today, appreciate the hardships that you have to endure in…
Albom’s real-life story of what he learned from his dying former professor, Tuesdays with Morrie, mixes sessions of Mitch being taught life lessons at Morrie’s house, with flashbacks, background, and commentary from Mitch. The lessons are laid out in chronological order, but everything else is interspaced at intervals to correspond with the lessons. It touches on many important topics, but some are more important than the rest. One of those, that reaches throughout multiple sessions, is that…
The Lack of Time Management in Real Life Would it not be just wonderful if nothing was set on a timed schedule? Instead of worrying about assignments being turned in on time or getting anxious about deadlines approaching, we could just relax and say, “I 'll do it when I feel like it.” I could most likely speak for everybody in the world when I say that kind of situation would be perfect. However, this thing called 'real life ' or 'reality ' hits you like a wrecking ball and makes you realize…
have no effect on our real lives. In “In Real Life,” Doctorow uses Anda’s friendship with Raymond to prove that life online is not fake, but rather our lives mediated through a piece of technology.

Even though Anda had killed all of the other gold farmers, Raymond was eager to help her when she was attacked by the emerald macaw. By showing that Raymond is not a bot,…
I have never considered myself to be extremely fit. In fact, I would have laughed if someone told me two years ago that I could tramp for 7 hours a day for 4 days consecutively. This is exactly why I am incredibly proud of my Duke of Edinburgh Silver Award. The 47km tramp in Whanganui National Park was life changing because I was completely outside of my comfort zone as I climbed mountains after mountains with a group of people I barely knew at first. However, over the 4 days and 3 nights, I…

Communicative language teaching makes use of real-life situations that necessitate communication. The teacher sets up a situation that students are likely to encounter in real life. Unlike the audio-lingual method of language teaching, which relies on repetition and drills, the communicative approach can leave students in suspense as to the outcome of a class exercise, which will vary according to their reactions and responses. The real-life simulations change from day to day. Students'…
