hmmm

During last class, we watched some past senior films. I definitely saw improvement. They became more interesting each year. I felt as though I had a better idea of how to revise my first draft, but it's still hard for me to create a narrative for the senior movie without using interviews like the other films had. I know there's a way, but the question I've had is how am I supposed to create a narrative that uses characters that represent all of the Carthage seniors?

I found an article this week from the New York times from Tara-Parker Pope on Health that spoke on rinsing vegetables. I was interested in reading it because I buy fruits and vegetables each week and I always like to make sure I wash them I recently wondered to myself if rinsing them off with water is good enough. Interestingly, the article claimed that using tap water (rather than soap/vegetable and fruit wash) along with a small use of mild vinegar cleans the produce as the friction helps clean it. It was also said that the water temperature is not important, but actually scrubbing them will help clean them.

Another article was on the topic of Insulin and how it was first introduced in 1922. The article was also in the New York Times and it reminded me of two family members with diabetes. Insulin is one of the greatest medicines that's been used and has almost forgotten as being such an amazing life saver.
