Instagram or Instaglam?

Instagram is taking over the world it seems. Well the internet world at least. I don't think I make it through a day without either going on Instagram, or someone saying "should I Instagram this?"

Dirty and ROTTEN

Valentine’s Day is the day where it is all about the cute stuff. Everywhere you look there are cute candies, cute flowers and cute couples. What about all the others who are spending Valentine’s Day alone and perhaps maybe can’t get over an ex that left them scorned?

Stand your ground, or retreat ?

“Who is perceived to be a threat? This requires us to examine gender, race and ethnicity that come into play with the schema.” Trumbo said “In our country where everything is ‘equal’ inequality still exists perhaps because of history.” The question comes into play as to whether or not one acts in self defense or kills at will.
