It is about two o’clock in the afternoon and I’m with my best friend, Lisha, on the streets of New Orleans. It’s a hot 90-degree day, but that did not stop us from coming out to explore the city. In areas like the French Quarter, there are passionate, talented musicians playing spontaneous jazz music in the middle of the road. The streets are covered with colorful houses with gorgeous, old-fashioned balconies and bars that sell alcohol in exotic, neon drinking cups. I see restaurants that remind…

Ha Noi is my native town: I have been living here since I was born 16 years ago. If I had to choose the most beautiful time in Hanoi, I would say autumn without hesitance. ‘Describe fall in Hanoi’ is the essay title that I have written more than 10 times since I started going to Primary School; however, each time I wrote the essay, my emotions are different. Autumn is everywhere, but the Autumn in Hanoi still distinct and beautiful. Blue sky, sunlight spread lightly on the streets, on the trees…

My village has a beautiful stone-built square with a bunch of plane trees…

proceeds to gain shouts and claps of applause and squawks of birds overhead laugh at our joy for something so small, recognition from others that we are worth their attention. And we wonder why we are dissatisfied with lies we inhale like so many pastries: a promise of a happier ending in the story we tell ourselves, to convince ourselves, and we believe everything. Everything was an almost until you did it, until you signed the paper contract that sealed it, and no one felt confident until…

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, “The Danger of One Story,” inspired me to write an essay on how I had only “One story” about my home country, Palestine. Adichie said in her story, “The single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story.” That quote from her presentation really changed my way of viewing things. I’ve only heard “One story” about my home country of Palestine: a war zone.…

Jamie Oliver started as a pastry chef, and a sous chef at “The River Cafe” recognized him, so he was thrown into the world cooking platform. He had many shows over a course of years, but his biggest achievement in my opinion was when he banned unhealthy food in British schools. His other achievements were an MBE in Queen’s Birthday Honors, and he was inducted into the “Culinary Hall of Fame.” I also find it interesting that he helped raise awareness of discarding saltwater fish. I would like to…
