I looked back into the mirror, and I saw the most beautiful red dress that hugged my hips and had just enough beading to make me feel like a princess. I didn’t believe…

If a captivating story is told but its validity is questioned, will it be held to prove its legitimacy? In the case of Tim O’Brien’s novel The Things They Carried, the answer is yes. O’Brien’s story is based on his experiences as a soldier and the stories he was told. Towards the beginning of the piece, O’Brien provides his own circumstances of what a war story must encompass to be ‘true’. Each chapter of the book holds a war story told by a various character or the author himself. As a focus,…

Have you ever heard anyone talk about a neighborhood and speak awfully about it? Or even spoken to someone and they begin to talk and say bad things or not true about the neighborhood or the neighborhoods you hang around in. This can easily be, because they have just heard the awful things from the neighborhood and never have really been to that neighborhood and just see how people act from that neighborhood.

Channel Orange One of the artists that has inspired me to produce my own music is Frank Ocean with his second album, Channel Orange. The first time that I ever listened to the album back in 2012, I remember thinking, “Holy shi*t…I have never heard anything like this before in my life.” Telling a song-by-song story, his poetic lyrics about his personal sexuality, strip clubs, pregnancy, wealth, drugs, and corruption show Frank’s slightly strange perception of it all. That is one thing that…

Blackwall’s chin lifted, his posture straightened. “I did, yes.” “Except you were Thom…
