Book Review: "The Trouble With Being Born" by E.M Cioran
I read this whole book in one night and honestly, it was one of the best books I have read this year. It really requires you to think about every single word because of its deep and philosophical stance on the fact that we should not be concerned about death but actually hate the fact that we were ever born. The book is formatted in various small bites of information and so, it makes it easier to read.
Annie KapurPublished 3 years ago in GeeksWhich of These 10 Toxic Social Media Superheroes Are You?
Everybody, including me, loves superheroes. One of the reasons we like them, however, is because they’re fictional. They stretch the imagination and have talents and abilities about which we clumsy mortals can only dream, but we don’t have to live with one.

Robin WritePublished 3 years ago in Geeks10 Songs That Glee Would Have Covered If It Was Still On TV
About twice a year, I re-watch Glee, purely out of nostalgia and, despite the criticisms of the show, I actually enjoy it. Glee was one of those feel good teen shows that gave many of us unrealistic expectations for what high school was supposed to be like and made us want to sing and dance even if we couldn't. Despite not actually watching Glee until season 6 aired (because that was when it was put on Netflix), Glee has been a part of my life since middle school. The show aired in 2009 when I was in the sixth grade and I remember the cultural frenzy it caused. My teacher's assistant for English would often play songs from Glee while we worked on essays or read to ourselves and I ended up becoming a fan of the songs from the show before ever watching an episode of it.

Steven LeitmanPublished 3 years ago in GeeksAnalyzing a foreign film: A look at What Time Is It There?
The foreign film experience is definitely something to behold. Film all over the world can follow a similar construction when it comes to story and plot, sure. But then you have those films that simply break out of the norm and become something so fantastical and so underrated they get missed or forgotten because they weren't talked about when they were released. In this article I will be discussing the film "What Time Is It There?", written and directed by Ming-Laing Tsai and co-written by Pi-Ying Yang, and tells the story of a street vendor selling watching who is changed by one simple interaction with a girl he meets that wants to buy the watch that he's wearing because it tells the time in two time zones so that she knows that time there and in Paris where she is headed.
No IntroductionPublished 3 years ago in GeeksCarry On
I imagine, like many of th e millions of Supernatural fans, that we are all stinging a bit after the shocking conclusion to the fifteen-year adventure when it came to its close. Let's face it, for the fans that are truly wrapped up in the adventures of the Winchesters, seeing the less than happy ending was both painful and bitter sweet. Two guys that spent their life saving the world without much credit, risking their lives, nay, their very souls, seemed to speak to man people over the years. Because, at the heart of the story, lied an undying devotion and unwavering loyalty to what brought them together. They were family.
