Why We Celebrate Labor Day?
Labor Day, which is celebrated in the United States and Canada on the first Monday of every September, is a unique concept - a day off from work in honor of work itself. The initial American Labor Day took place in New York City on September 5th, 1882, where thousands of workers and their families gathered at Union Square for a day of leisure. Although it wasn't a national holiday, it was organized by a union to recognize and appreciate the hard work of laborers by granting them a rare day of rest, positioned midway between July 4th and Thanksgiving. The event encompassed picnics, a parade, and demonstrations. In addition to celebrating, the workers came together to voice their demands for fair wages, an end to child labor, and the right to form unions. During the era known as The Industrial Revolution, many jobs were arduous, unclean, and perilous. Employees worked twelve hours a day, six days a week, without enjoying benefits like vacations, healthcare, or pensions. Unfortunately, children were often engaged in manual labor rather than receiving a proper education. Some as young as ten toiled in hazardous environments such as coal mines or factories with boiling vats and perilous machinery. In an attempt to secure improved pay, shorter hours, and safer working conditions, workers in America and Canada began forming labor unions. However, the companies they worked for vehemently opposed unionization efforts and suppressed strikes. This often resulted in violent clashes between workers and business owners, with the owners often receiving support from the police or even the military. Over the subsequent years, the idea of Labor Day gained popularity in America, with official celebrations taking place in 30 states. However, the violent Haymarket Square Riot of 1886, where several police officers and workers lost their lives in Chicago, changed the course of the labor movement. Four union leaders were executed, and as a result, many labor and political groups worldwide started commemorating the event on May 1st, which became known as International Workers' Day. In 1894, President Grover Cleveland signed a law establishing Labor Day as a federal holiday in America. Interestingly, this occurred just days after he had deployed 12,000 soldiers to suppress a violent railroad strike that resulted in multiple deaths. The original September date was maintained, partly to dissociate from the more radical associations of May 1st. Canada also adopted Labor Day as a holiday in the same year. Despite the introduction of this new holiday, it took a considerable amount of time for laborers' desired changes to materialize. It wasn't until 1938, during the Great Depression when millions were unemployed, that President Franklin D. Roosevelt enacted a law mandating an eight-hour workday, a five-day workweek, and an end to child labor. These were among the first federal safeguards to protect American workers. As America and Canada celebrate Labor Day, it is customary for most children in both countries to have a day off from school. However, it's essential to remember that there was a time when every day was a labor day for children in America and Canada. Unfortunately, this remains a stark reality for millions of children worldwide even today.

Creative Writing Forever
There is no doubt that I love to write, it is my dream to become a feature writer, or a contributing writer. I would love to see my stories in magazines. Before I made the decision to major in English, I thought that I should not go for an English major because I believed that I should only go for the things I am good at, I am not a poetry expert, nor expert in understanding a text right away, I am not a proofreader; so I used to think that writing is not going to get me anywhere. But that is completely untrue. I remember how in one of my poetry courses, my professor wrote down quotes from other writers and what they had to say about writing. One author said “Writing is easy. You only need to stare at a piece of blank paper until your forehead bleeds.” I realized that there is no such thing as writing an article in two or five minutes; writing requires you to be patient, to clear your thoughts, to sometimes do research. Even when having passion for something you write about, you still need to take your time. I remember that in my Latin X literature course we read a book called I am not your perfect mexican daughter and already just by taking a look at the title I knew what I would be reading about. My initial thoughts before reading it were that I would be reading about a girl who does not want to follow tradition, a girl who feels misunderstood by her family. I really liked reading the story, and I felt that I connected with the protagonist (Julia) in the story. Like the protagonist, I am also from Chicago and I used to live in apartments that were infested with roaches; and living like that was the just the worst. Another way I felt connected to her was in how she did not focus on being perfect, she wanted to be herself and not get judged for it. Reading this story made me think of my boyfriend’s family because they do tend to think that a woman needs to do certain things to be considered a woman. So, what does all this have to do with me majoring in English? Well, for me, my journey in this pathway has helped me to see that I do not need to be perfect to become a writer; this is not to say I can just write sloppily, but it is perfectly okay to struggle the first couple times. When I joined the Chronicle, an online magazine at North Central College, instead of getting told I would no longer write because I lacked skills like SEO or grammar, the editors were kind enough to explain to me how I can improve my articles. Joining The Chronicle became one of the turning points for me in continuing my major in English; because of The Chronicle, I finally knew exactly what I wanted to do with my major in English, which is to become a feature writer for a magazine. Despite my boyfriend’s family thinking that a major only matters if I make a lot of money and that they see it as a waste of time for me to be writing, I feel that writing is my vocation, and I cannot just quit just because I may fail a couple times, and if there is something that I learned while majoring in English is that even though it can sometimes be annoying, or stressful, I feel that every other major is like that; we can not like certain things about our majors and at the same time also love it. I really did not want to take a course on British Literature, however I did enjoy some of the texts; I liked reading Modern Fiction by Virginia Woolf. In Modern Fiction Virginia Woolf wants writers to write what they feel in their hearts, not write for the pleasure of others. I have been following Woolf’s advice because I want to not feel limited in my major. I think that a major should allow you to grow, it should not suffocate you and to me being an English Major means being able to explore different ideas, and being open to different point of views. Reading Modern Fiction, I would consider it to be another turning point because the essay helped me to understand that I do not have to follow a specific method to become successful in my major, I should not feel controlled as an English major but instead feel free, I should feel free to write what comes to my mind and not write what others would like to read because if I write for the pleasure of everybody else, it just feels like I am not being my own person in something that I want to do for the rest of my life.

For the first time in over three centuries, China relinquished its title as the world's most populous country. This milestone also marked the initial population decline in more than six decades, a significant contrast to the steady growth observed since the tragic Great Chinese Famine of 1960-61, which resulted in the loss of tens of millions of lives. In 2022, China's population saw a decrease of approximately 850,000 individuals, signaling a trend set to persist for many decades to come, with annual decreases occurring.
