Two news stories last week that affected me was of course the college admissions scandal and the shootings in New Zealand. We knew in our hearts that New Zealand would stand up and do the right thing and along with it a sinking feeling that incidents like this will continue to happen in the US because our politicians prefer not doing anything and reading opinion pieces like this and this is all I seem to be able to do.
The other news story was about how rich paid money to get college seats. The news wasn't particularly surprising. How is it different from what Fred Trump, Donald Trump, Charles Kushner and even legacy admissions do for that matter? Why is that the rest of the populace who does not have the money or a parent who went to one of these top colleges have to struggle so much harder without knowing what to do to get into these colleges?

Movies
Watched The Green Book. Extremely well made movie in spite of its slow pace it keeps the viewer engrossed. Fantastic acting and based off a true story this movie is worth watching.
