A Truck Full Of Slime Eels Spilled Into The Highway And It Was The Stuff Of Nightmares- Review day 21

"#Cleanup on Aisle 101" happened to be the statement of the day in Oregon yesterday. A truck carrying 7500 pounds of slithering fish in 13 different containers over turned on US Route 101 after the 59-year-old driver was unable to stop the truck for construction work. There were no major injuries to humans but many of the creatures were lost. Initially the authorities thought that they were eels, but they are actually Hagfish, which are commonly know as slime eels. The road was closed for a few hours but reopened by 4pm.
Honestly this is slightly terrifying. There are so many different things about this that just give me the creeps, a lot of them not even mentioned in the article. For instance, a truck carrying 13 containers cannot stop and spills HAGFISH all over the highway, that was traveling to Korea for consumption...
  1. 13, the most unlucky number that almost every culture has superstitions on, is the number of containers being carried. Who ever loaded this truck, you're stupid! You never do things in 13s!
  2. Hagfish, creepy af fish! They are a slimy fish that look like eels. They are also the only known animal to have a skull but no vertebral column.
  3. HMM... traveling to Korea... for consumption... I'd say Karma had a small part in this.

14-Year-Old Girl Delivers 'Absolutely Extraordinary' 'World of Dance' Routine- Review Day 6

Eva Igo, 14-year-old dancer from Minnesota preformed a "hypnotizing" performance on "World of Dance". "Such a star", J.Lo states. I love this dance. You can definitely feel the emotion Eva is giving off in this performance. She seemed comfortable up on stage and definitely lived up to my mothers words, "Dance like no one is watching." One of the judges, Derek Hough, commented, "You dominated that stage," and she really did. She used the entire stage, used her face, and turned her dance into a story and conveyed the story so well that, as I said earlier, you can feel the emotion of her dance.

Ballet Dancer Leaps Onto Subway Tracks and Lifts Man to Safety- Review Day 1

 Ever heard of a Ballet dancer rescuing someone? Not normally right? Well, Mr. Grey Davis, a Ballet dancer with the American Ballet Theater, did just that. On Saturday night, a 58 year-old homeless man was pushed onto to subway tracks at the 72nd Street Subway Station by a 24 year-old girl. When Mr. Davis, his wife, and his mother were leaving the Metropolitan Opera House after watching his wife perform (who is also a ballet dancer), the incident unfolded. Mr. Davis was originally waiting for someone else to help, but when he saw that no one was going to he jumped down and lifted the 58 year-old, who is unconscious, off the tracks and others helped pull him up. Mr. Davis didn't realize the danger until he heard the on coming train getting closer. He then quickly pulled himself up onto the platform. On Monday, back at rehearsal, Mr. Grey Davis was honored by his instructor with a traditional flower wreath. This story made me smile. Hearing this reassur...

"We have the ability to scapegoat."- Jordan Peele

 "We’re capable of the worst monstrosities . . ." Jordan Peele, director of the horror film Get Out, talks about how society results to scapegoat, or isolate, a person out of fear of everyone else going against you also in an interview. He mentions that fear can drive people to hurt, or destroy another person for the fear of being on the wrong side of the group or society. I agree with Peele. People are like wolves, we tend to stay in a pack and follow what the others do to avoid being an outcast or pushed out of the group. When we are pushed from a group in society, we tend to feel scared and out of place and in a constant hurry to find a new group to jump into. For example, there was a video that was floating around Facebook a few weeks ago that was set in a Japanese school setting. This video was about a school girl who was being bullied by a group of school boys but one of the boys actually liked her. The thing was that the one boy who liked her was never going to stand...
