why I moved here or that I have a family that I never talk about. No one except for three people know truly why I am, who I am today. I just hate talking about it. The event itself and the events after are pretty awful, but I like to think that I’ve learned a lot about who I am through it all.

That Sunday was probably the worst one I can remember

you're on in ten!" There was a special kind of mental whiplash that came with being a musician. I could have been sitting perfectly calm in my dressing room for the past hour but for some reason everyone feels it's necessary to rush me in the last few moments before I'm due on the stage. And there's always someone running around shouting, counting down the minutes of panic I have to endure before I appear on the stage, fresh faced, happy and always beaming about something or other. To be perfectly

TRUE LIFE IN GOD Ever since I can remember I was told I was smart, that I could do anything if I put my mind to it. And for the most part that was true. Throughout my school years in elementary and high school I made good grades with little effort. And I tended to be the one who blew the curve on the exams. Not only was I capable academically, but also spiritually. By the time I reached 15 I had accomplished some of the goals I had really set for myself, to have all the worldly things in this

Entry 1: Dear Diary, I am just now leaving The United States of America and on the plane right now as I’m writing this. Mama, Walter, Ruth, and Travis all dropped me off at the airport to say goodbye. It was really hard because I know I will not see them for a while, but they know what’s best for me.

I am Beneatha and proud of myself and family

interesting read. I think many people can learn from this article. As a global leader, my views on cheap labour and women in sweatshops have truly broadened. The idea of women in sweatshops is not foreign to me, but the idea that women shaped globalization because of their contribution to cheap labour really opened my eyes. I had not put two and two together before this read. I think I gained a new perspective at globalization, which has made me rethink and question the knowledge I had known. As global

Dear Holden, I see you are very lost in this world. Nobody understands you, you consider everyone is your enemy. You obviously think all adults are miserable because they have the most boring life anyone could ever imagine. They wake up every day, tell their kids what to do and what not to do, then they go to work, do nothing that can ever help someone on the planet(even if the name of their career sounds very serious and significant), after they come back home, argue with their children till
