These 'Indesturctible' Animals Would Survive a Planet-Wide Apocalypse -review day 22

An Animal that can survive even up until the sun quits shinning? No... that can't be true. But it is. Tardigrades, also known as water bears, are tiny water-dwelling creatures that are famed for their resiliency. They can survive for up to 30 years without food or water and can endure extreme temperature changes. WHAT?! No, not okay. They can even survive astrophysical events, like supernovas and asteroid strikes.
I'm sorry but no way is that even possible! If they can survive all that, does that mean they can survive someone stepping on them? Are they completely impossible to kill? I'm only asking because tiny, eight-legged things resemble spiders, and I hate spiders.

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...
