Hats and Heels 👠
Uniform, why does it mean so much to us? I wanted to write this article after a conversation I had with my other half two nights ago, about how we as a culture perceive the symbol of a uniform. It’s an integral part of each and everyone of our lives, even if we don’t notice it.

False Coaches
Surely you've seen at least one of them. Some friend from school, a cousin or parent or sibling, somebody you know is bound to have joined an MLM at some point or another. If you know somebody who is no longer involved in MLM, ask them about their experience. If you know somebody who still is, proceed with caution.

Critical Aspects of Any Scholarship Essay
The dreaded scholarship essay does not have to be a confusing experience to navigate. Once you understand what exactly scholarship donors are looking for, the process becomes much simpler, even formulaic. With university tuition sometimes reaching $60,000 per semester, it is no wonder scholarships are of such heavy concern to students. Here are things you must include in your scholarship essay if you want a chance at funding your education.

The Starving Artist
It is a wonderful, terrible thing to know exactly what you want to be. It is a privilege and a frustration to know exactly where you where you want to end up in life.

College and Children
Is Your Child College Material? Not all children are cut out for college, and I feel that parents need to realize and respect this in the child. Your child does not have to go to college to become a success in life.

The World Is Filled With Filler
I know this is a bit of a humorous subject, but I see filler everywhere. I see it on YouTube videos, news articles, TV shows, and movies. We even have a 600 word minimum for these articles. It got me to wonder why do we have so much filler, especially when times are moving much faster. Don't we want to get to the point a lot faster? My thoughts about this always come back to school. There's a few points that I want to get to, but how did I get to this subject?

The Collapsing Job Market
I have a saying: Corporations paying minimum wage are basically telling employees that they would pay them less if they could legally do so. Many American workers are making minimum wage or slightly above it. The reality for them is that seven or eight dollars an hour is impossible to truly live off of. Across the country, that barely pays for rent, never mind food, a car note, or car insurance. There is just not enough money there. In the meantime, greedy employers literally make billions on the backs of their workers. And it gets so much worse.
