My childhood consisted of my sister and I sitting criss-cross applesauce on the living room floor in front of our small TV watching endless amounts of Disney films. We would run to our plastic box filled to the rim with Little Mermaid, Lion King, and countless other VHS films to…

My first cellphone has sentimental value, and I can’t bring myself to throw it away. To this day, it sits in the back of my desk drawer. Initially, it served as a backup in case I ever broke or lost its replacement. However, it never found its way to the…
