INTRODUCTION Figure 1: Molecular Structure of PET PET (or PETE) is also known as polyethylene terephthalate or (C10H8O4)n. Its natural state is a colorless, semi-crystalline resin when combined with other materials like glass fiber or carbon nanotubes, it increases the material’s strength. Polyethylene terephthalate melts at 260°C and Amorphous density (at 25oC) is 1.33 g/cm3. PET can be produced by 2 different reactions as a product of polymerization.

George Orwell, in his novel Animal Farm, illustrates the flaws involved in a system where equality amongst all individuals is the basis for governance. Orwell represents society through various animals living on a farm under the control of human farmers.

As a student, I come across readings/media and interpret them through their metaphorical meaning rather than its literal. My views may be critically opinionated, often times creating a scenario to where people decieve my true identity.

Dichotomies as false reflections of reality: Scholars also argue that dichotomies are not concrete reality but rather assumptions and metaphors which hardly correlate with the reality, which is fluid and in which such fixed concrete categories are rarely found (Barbe 2001, Eckel and Weber 2007).

What is the ambiguity between right and wrong? Some would argue there is a distinctive way to decide what is right and what is wrong. I do not believe it is that simple. Knowing what is right and what is wrong comes from one’s morals, beliefs, personality, and mentality. The difference between right and wrong cannot be seen clearly by every human being.
