    Sebastian Vargas Sanchez replied to the topic Storytelling Essay

    After reading the article, i thought about it for a while and it came to my mind that in every conversation, there is a hidden story been told.

    Sebastian Vargas Sanchez replied to the topic Amy Tan and James Baldwin

They both get to the point that even though in a group of people they maybe speak the same language, the words they actually use can depict who they are. If someone does not know english the proper way and does not speak it like others, they may get a different…[Read more]

    Sebastian Vargas Sanchez replied to the topic Social Media article

    My thoughts on the social media article is that social has become something else to what it  was meant to be. One example of this is that a research done by NYU showed that emotional words in a tweet on the Twitter platform increased its popularity by 20 percent.  Twitter was made for people to upload information to a timeline with a limit of 1…[Read more]

    Sebastian Vargas Sanchez replied to the topic "The Daily" Podcast

    My thoughts on The podcast “The Daily” discussing the episode “Republicans’ ‘Dead Chicken’ Strategy on Impeachment” are confusing. I’m not really into politics and im kinda lost in what was happening on the episode. I get the part where Davis talks about Kavanuagh having his family and career ruined because someone in the senate I believe is pu…[Read more]

    Sebastian Vargas Sanchez replied to the topic The Braindead Megaphone

    My thoughts on “The Braindead Megaphone” by George Saunders are quite simple. Saunders is basically talking mostly about the media and the fact that they are shouting senseless information at us to capture our attention and make money. Saunders compares this to the guy at the party with the megaphone. He describes this man as “not the sma…[Read more]
