English Vocabulary English Expressions related to Last Minute

English Vocabulary English Expressions related to Last Minute We have all rushed out at the last minute to buy something we forgot. It is always stressful. Here are  some English expressions related to last minute.  We always think we have got everything we need. Whether it is the birthday party for a family  member or Christmas shopping we panic when we remember that we should have bought  something for your Aunt or a little toy for you nephew or god daughter. So we inevitably have to  jump into (get in quickly) the car and head back (return) to the city centre or shopping centre for  that last minute gift. English Expressions related to Last Minute Here are some English words and phrases with a similar meaning:  A LAST MINUTE RUSHA rush is a quick race either on foot or in your car when you have not got time.ex. Sorry, I cannot stop and talk to you I am in a rush (in a hurry). A last minute rush is that last  (hopefully) run into the city to buy the few things you forgot.  RACE AGAINST TIME    Someone must do or finish something very quickly because they don’t have enough time to finish it.  We seem to be constantly in a race against time.    ex. Michael had a deadline to submit his project at the latest of midnight  on the 20th December. As always he did not start the project until the last minute and therefore was  in a race against time to get it completed and submitted by the time agreed.  UP AGAINST THE CLOCK  People like to give us tasks to complete in a timescale that can be very  challenging.  ex. My French test had to be completed in 2 hours. I had a lot to do. When I looked at my  watch I had only 20 mins remaining. I was really up against the clock and I doubted that I would got  all the questions answered in time. IN THE NICK OF TIME  When you just get something completed with very little time to spare you can  say I did it in the nick of time. Another minute and it would have been too late.  ex. Although the  deadline was tight I managed to finish the essay just as the teacher shouted time is up I finished it  just in the nick of time.  AT THE ELEVENTH HOUR  Nobody likes to be constantly in a race against the clock but some people  operate better when their back is to the wall (under pressure).  ex. My brother always leaves things  to the last minute he likes the thrill of completing his assignments by the eleventh hour (late into  the night). He thinks he does his best work in this way.

To Vaccinate Or Not To Vaccinate The Choice Should Be Yours

To Vaccinate Or Not To Vaccinate The Choice Should Be Yours specialedpost.org A lot of people cringe away from talking about their opinions on vaccines because it can become a very heated subject, especially if you are against them. Vaccines scare the crap out of me, and while I’m not saying that you shouldn’t get vaccinated, I hope this article will make you stop and think before just letting some doctor inject something into your body. I’ve never been the type of person who just goes along with something without question. While this isn’t always the best of qualities, I always liked finding things out for myself instead of just going with what the majority was saying, even when I was very young. The main thing that triggered this attribute was an incident that happened to me when I was thirteen. When I was twelve, I went to the doctor for a check-up before my family and I were going to move to Malaysia for a year, and they told my mom about a new vaccine called Gardasil. image via videodemonews.wordpress.com Gardasil is used to prevent four types of human papillomavirus (HPV). This is supposed to help with certain types of cervical cancers and genital warts. Sounds good right? One of my mom’s very good friends has cervical cancer, so she was quickly convinced by my doctor that I should get the vaccine. It comes in three doses, which should be given over six months. The doctor then explained that only girls between 9-26 were  eligible  to get it  (guys can get it now as well, but this was when the shot first came out.) The fact that the shot was new and that only a certain age range could get it freaked me out a bit, but I didn’t want to get cervical cancer so I allowed the nurse to administer the first dose without much fuss. The shot was probably one of the most painful shots I ever experienced, and I couldn’t move my arm for two days. I decided to consult Google about the vaccine, and found out that there were many horrible side effects associated with the shot. I can’t find the exact one that I was looking at when I was twelve, but according to this article: ‘“Between May 2009 and September 2010, 16 deaths after Gardasil vaccination were reported. For that timeframe, there were also 789 reports of serious Gardasil adverse reactions, including 213 cases of permanent disability and 25 diagnosed cases of Guillain Barre Syndrome,’ Judicial Watch reported.” Other side effects include, seizures, speech problems, paralysis, short term memory loss, blindness, Guillian Barre syndrome, Pancreatitis, Ovarian cysts, and though it may protect some cervical cancers, you can still get it because there are over 100 types. No one is warned about the side effects; they are just bullied into vaccinating their children, and if they don’t they are seen as “bad parents.” image via voices.yahoo.com So after reading up on what the shot could do, I didn’t want to continue the sequence. We went to Malaysia and then when we came back to the states, I had to go in for another check up. I told my mom again that I didn’t want the second shot, which I had mentioned about a dozen times on the ride to the doctors office. She assured me that it would probably be too late anyway, since the series was supposed to be completed within six months. This made me relax. At the very end of the check-up the doctor told me I would be getting three vaccines, Tetanus, DTaP, and the second Gardasil shot. Before I had a chance to protest, she was out of the room, telling the nurse to get them ready. I looked to my mom, telling her that I didn’t want the Gardasil. She hesitated, because she knew I didn’t want it, but she wanted to keep me safe. When the nurse came in, I told her I didn’t want the Gardasil shot, but the nurse told my mom  that the shot was already filled and we would have to pay for it either way so I might as well get it. The nurse didn’t look at me when she replied, even though I was the one who told her that I didn’t want it. I pleaded with my mom, who was caught in a tug of war. I started spurting out how the shot was bad and had killed people, and the nurse laughed and told me that the shot was good for me, and that I shouldn’t believe everything that I read on the Internet. She tried to lunge at me with the shot, but I spun out of the way; I wasn’t going down without a fight. She told me that if I didn’t cooperate, then she would have to get back-up. I told her I would cooperate for the other two vaccines, but not for the Gardasil. The nurse went on to ration with my mom, pretending like I didn’t exist. After two more failed attempts of her trying to administer the shot, she got three more nurses to help her. Two of them grabbed my legs and the third pinned me down to the table, as I screamed for them to stop. It was my body, and therefore my decision, but they didn’t care. My opinion didn’t matter because to them I was just some stupid kid who was probably afraid of needles, and who was disrupting the flow of their day. They injected all three shots into the same armâ€"which they weren’t supposed to do because Tetanus and Gardasil are both very painful and should have been put into different armsâ€"and then patted themselves on the back for giving me the vaccines. One of the nurses who held my leg jokingly said that she would have to put me on her calendar for when I got the third shot because I was a workout. I could have punched her. image via www.macquirelatory.com The doctor came in and gave my mom a card for a psychiatrist who specializes in helping kids get over their fear of shots. That’s the part that angers me the most. I wasn’t scared of the needles. Sure, they aren’t exactly my most favorite things in the world, but that wasn’t the point. The point was that I didn’t want the poison of Gardasil in my body, but they thought I was stupid for thinking medicine could hurt me instead of help. I was treated like I wasn’t a person, like I wasn’t capable of having my own thoughts because I wasn’t eighteen. As I was writing this and revisiting this memory, I almost cried, because it still holds such an impact. I was forced against my will to get something that I didn’t agree with, and that is wrong. The thing is, a lot of people never question shots, because they’ve never had a reason to. Max Meyer, a second year business management economics student at UC Santa Cruz, said, “since vaccines are tested, they are more than likely going to help each person instead of harming them.” I’m definitely not saying that vaccines are bad; I do agree that they can do a lot of good and have helped prevent diseases from spreading. I do, however, think that we ourselves should know more about the vaccines we are getting. Calvin Sainz, a third year neuroscience student at UC Santa Cruz, said “if there was a way for people to want to infect others, they could just tamper with the medical vaccines at the free clinics, so they can be scary.” A main controversy that gets brought up when it comes to vaccines is whether or not they can cause Autism in children. Mary Medeiros, a second year MCD biology student at UC Santa Cruz, said “ a lot of people think that vaccines cause autism, but I don’t believe that at all. Vaccines help prevent diseases, and if you don’t vaccinate your children, they can die at a younger age.” Meyer agreed with Medeiros in saying that vaccines don’t cause autism, that he knows of. This is one of those things that you will have to decide on your own. I think it is important to vaccinate children, though I think that they give too many vaccines at once and therefore autism can be a factor. image via snarkecards.com Basically what I want you to take from this is to know you have a choice, and you should never let someone bully you into doing something that you don’t want to/don’t feel comfortable with. I have now switched to a new doctor, who will listen to me, give her opinion, but also respect mine and not make me feel bad if I don’t want to do something. Have a story to share?

5 Tips for Starting an Indoor Garden

5 Tips for Starting an Indoor Garden Image via lifeofpix.com When skimming any interior design magazine or blog post, you’re bound to run into a bunch of houseplants used as decor. Indoor gardens seem to be all the rage. They’re great for your health, the environment, and they’re nice to look at! You may not have a green thumb, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a wonderful indoor garden to help spruce up your interior space. With proper planning and a little creativity, you’ll be growing some beautiful new plants in no time. Here are five tips to get you started on your indoor garden. 1. Find your light Houseplants are a perfect way to exercise your responsibility muscles in the easiest way. Plants only require two things to grow: sunlight and water. Some plants barely even require that! When looking to start your indoor garden, you’ll want to look for areas (probably near windows) that have the most amount of sunlight throughout the day. These are the spots and rooms that will probably be the future home of most of your plants since most plants do require some form of sunlight. When preparing your indoor garden, keep lighting in mind because it may mean re-arranging already existing furniture or decorations to accommodate new plants. If you don’t have much sunlight in your apartment or home, look for types of plants that require less sunlight and less care. Some options may be bamboo or easy succulent plants. 2. Think vertically Some people may not think they have the space for an indoor garden because all their surfaces already seem to be filled. A great way to fit more plants into a smaller space is to think vertically! With just a quick search on Google or Pinterest, you’ll see loads of design ideas on how to maximize space with plants. You can find vertical mounting walls, shelves, or even hang plants from the ceiling to fit more into a smaller space. Plus, draping plants look even better when they have room to grow downward! 3. Find quirky containers You may dread starting a garden because it means going out and buying loads of new pots and planters. This doesn’t have to be the case. One decorating trend is to plant easy-going plants (like succulents and cacti) in cute containers that you probably already have. Some of these may be things like jars, glass bottles, cans, dishes, mugs, ceramics of any type, and so many more. Really, the possibilities are endless and it won’t require you to purchase ugly and generic looking planters. When doing this, just be sure that you’re choosing the right plant for your container. Some plants require irrigation draining and some will need room to grow. Try and find the perfect fit! 4. Make it useful Sometimes its hard to see the appeal in all the work it takes to buy, plant, and grow an indoor garden. One way to counter this is by growing plants that will be useful to you later on. There are plenty of herbs and spices that can easily be grown indoors. You’d also be surprised about the different uses for plants you may have just bought for aesthetic purposes. Aloe vera is a popular houseplant, but did you know that you can use the goo inside the leaves to immediately heal burns? No need to buy from the supermarket anymore! For many, plants are good enough because they produce cleaner air and are pleasant to look at. These are also great reasons to start an indoor garden. 5. Careful when wet Don’t forget that plants can be messy too! Depending on which plants you’ve chosen for your indoor garden, they may need watering quite frequently and also may need to be drained. Be sure that the plants that might leak have dishes or water catchers underneath so that they don’t drip all over the place. You may need to test some of your containers beforehand to find out whether or not they’re going to leak when you water your plants in the future. This may take some strategic planning on your part when starting your indoor garden. Just remember that a little forethought is better than a moldy carpet! pixabay.com Starting an indoor garden doesn’t have to be a huge hassle, nor do you have to work extra hard to reap huge benefits. With plants, you usually barely have to do anything at all before you have a blooming garden on your hands. Just think about all the wonderful things an indoor garden holds: fresher scents, beautiful blooms, and maybe even an herb or two. People are often surprised about how cheap having a nice indoor garden can actually be. Just a few plants placed here and there can have a huge affect on the feel of your home. Be ready for a livelier space! Looking for an easy way to furnish your off-campus apartment? Renting furniture from CORT saves you time and money. See how easy it is to get great looking furniture without breaking the bank.

Killing the Lazy Stoner

Killing the Lazy Stoner source: www.fanpop.comA group of dangerous drug abusers source: twitter.comDangerous drug user/criminal Lately there has been a monstrous resurgence of pot culture in film and television, I am not even going to bring up music and how much they love it.  The revealing of Obamas Choom gang in high school happened; we as a country learned that our commander in chief was most assuredly a blazed out-of-his-mind pothead on the reggie in high school, dude.  Its becoming easier to find media where main characters partake in the magic dragon.  From Mark Wahlberg hittin the bong over 1,000 times in Ted, to the goofballs in Workaholics, or even little innocent Mr. Frodo (I mean Elijah Wood) ripping the homemade water bottle bong with his dog in FXs Wilfred multiple times an episode.  These are just a few examples, but I have a word limit to adhere to so I will not press on.  Not only that, but in childrens television shows such as Regular Show, clocks and VCRs in the cartoon commonly have the time 4:20 pictured on them.  Pot culture is basically everywhere all over your TV always.  There i s no escape. In most of these examples pot is just a funny thing the characters do because they are goofy and weird as it has always been.  A few stand out, though.  In Wilfred, Elijah Wood plays a burnt out, guilt ridden lawyer who befriends his neighbors dog and smokes weed with him all day.  In most shows potheads dont look or behave like Elijah Wood, and they arent lawyers either.  In HBOs Bored to Death a 60 year old Ted Danson is the eccentric editor of a large, successful magazine who runs around with  Zach Galifianakis and Jason Schwartzman smoking weed and solving crimes.  Again we see a character who is successful, lucrative, well respected, an intellectual, and a pot smoker. source: fordopepurposesonly.blogspot.comHe used to be a doctor  and now he is just another filthy pot smoking criminal. With marijuana entering the mainstream it is apparent that our collective attitude toward pot in America is drastically distancing itself from traditional thought.  It isnt that hard to turn on the TV and find some show where characters, who are well adjusted with no major character faults or problems, use marijuana.  Almost like role models, but for stoners.  Not that those never existed, maybe youve heard of the Beatles or President Obama, but it is refreshing to see that our cultural attitudes are still something we can  malleate.  It is high time we  amend  our feelings toward marijuana whether we like it or not.
