Introduction For centuries, music has been life, accompanying man through good and bad, evolving over the years from beats to symphonies. It has been translating our souls’ deepest desires, our minds’ complicated thoughts, and hearts’ intricate emotions. Humans have always resorted to music as an escape from reality to soothe their aching souls. But what is the truth behind such joy that seeps into our minds once we listen to music? This question is what will be discussed in the following paper; the psychology of music. How our Brain Perceives Music As we all know, music, or any other sound in general, enters through our ear as sound waves which are then converted into electrical impulses that can be interpreted by the brain. This process takes place in three stages involving the pinna, ossicles, and cochlea (parts of our outer, middle, and inner ear respectively). Stage 1: The pinna channels the sound waves down the ear canal to the eardrum which in response to those incoming sound

  In this era of technological advancements and scientific discoveries, fostering Students interest in STEM is crucial. And one effective way to accomplish this is by establishing a STEM Club in your school.

Introduction Plastic becoming the new ‘fish’ swimming in our seas, rivers the new garbage dumps, animals choking to death on bottles, and innocent tortoises tangled up in bags; this is what humanity has done to our breathtaking ocean; genocide of the beautiful marine life we have been granted. 75 to 199 million tons of plastic waste are currently in our oceans, with a further 33 billion pounds of plastic entering the marine environment every single year. Can you imagine how many innocent animals mistake plastic for food? Death has wrapped its claws around 100 million oceanic animals each year from plastic waste alone and this number keeps increasing. Not to mention the 100,000 others that die after getting entangled in plastic yearly. That is why every individual, company, and organization must work toward a healthier, sustainable environment. The Heart of the Problem: Plastic But to address this critical issue, the essence of plastic must be firstly understood. Plastic is a polym
