So, I still resumed contact with my family after around six months when my father reached out to me shortly before my oldest daughter was born. I started working in Johannesburg during the week and then flew back to Cape Town over the weekends and would meet my family on occasion for dinner.

I…

“Kyle C, on Deck!” He shouted. I walked up, with my Single Shot at my side. “12 or .410?” The man said. I told him 12 and he handed me a thumb size, red shell. I looked away and waited for the shot of the man in front of me. Bang! I then walked up to aisle 3, which was my assigned lane. I took aim, and handled the stock of the shotgun against my shoulder. I looked down the middle until the dot was alligned in between the gap. I took a deep breath, then exhaled. I meant to pull the trigger but…
There was a time when going to a grocery store was pleasure there was always someone at the door to greet the customers, there were employees in the aisle and even baggers pushing the customer’s carts to their cars. In today’s world, this isn’t common anymore, but there is one grocery store still know for this customer service “Publix.” This supermarket was founded in 1930 in Florida by George Jenkins.

On Friday, CNN became the first network to report a break in Robert Mueller's months-long investigation into the Trump administration after the president fired FBI Director James Comey and raised flags on both sides of the political aisle.

addressed this situation by taking away the separation of boy and girl toy aisles, now if you walk past that section the sign only says “toys”. Target did this to encourage kids to get the toys they want and not the toys their expected to buy. To my amazement this actually upset quite a few people, including my grandmother; “now I wont be able to find any toys for my grandchildren” she claimed, and then I explained that the aisles would still have sign for what’s on…
As my friends and I enter through Walgreen’s automatic door, the very first thing that captures our attention is the long, extensive make-up aisle right near us. We all ran to admire the wide variety of cosmetics that were offered to us. I kept on thinking what exactly I wanted to buy first.
