It all started on an Autumn afternoon back in 2012, when my beloved mother told me that she decided that it was best for me, my sister and her to move to U.S.A. Don’t get me wrong, since I was a little girl, I wanted to travel the world, I wanted to experience new things, meet new people, talk different languages. But not at twelve. I wanted to stay in Barranquilla, Colombia; I wanted to stay with my culture, my traditions, my family and everything that I was accustomed to. However I was only…

The Louis J. Esposito dining hall is a popular location on Temple University’s urban campus where those who have a meal plan congregate.

When You Need To Get A Wheel Alignment Your local auto shop may have mentioned that your car needs a wheel alignment. If you thought it was unnecessary, here are some valid reasons when your car can benefit from a wheel alignment.
