Hustle

America in the 1950’s, but by then he had already married, and had children. Prior to that he and his family, including my grandmother, lived in Argentina. The lifestyles in Buenos Aries and Italy are very similar, despite their small differences. The hustle and bustle in these cities are parallels and he found he fit in very well in both areas. Today, my great grandfather and my great grandmother both live in Argentina once again. After doing much research on the region of Veneto…

But what about the most sensitive victim group – the black American? Victim-ology is the dogma of a myriad black “civil rights” groups with their high priests of race hustles such as Al Sharpton. The most persecuted Christians are in Africa. But the civil rights hustlers of America just love to hang with Muslims as their brothers. All of those dead Africans? Not a problem for African Americans. It is surprising how many Buddhists are being killed in jihad, but is it a surprise that Buddhists…

I was born and raised in Houston, TX. Like most Texans I was proud of where I was from and never ventured out of the great state. One day I realized that there had to be more to life than the hustle and bustle of Houston. I wanted to leave and go to a place where I could stop and smell the roses; I wanted to start enjoy life. Without hesitation I pulled out a map, closed my eyes and pointed. Leaving Texas to move to Colorado taught me that homesickness doesn’t last forever, exploring new places…

In this section it is hard to understand the reason for travel or lack there of. In The Paid Piper Grant Stoddard discusses his own home of New York rather than describing a travel experience. He is trying to show us as readers what to expect when traveling to New York. He takes a different route than others, which could be the “travel writing” in this piece. Stoddard shows us a side of New York that we otherwise would not have experienced without his input. It is interesting to see how well a…

“game” for everyone. For the early 2000’s that person would Jay Z, one of the singles from Jay-Z 's now classic debut album, Reasonable Doubt, was a song called "Can 't Knock The Hustle." Though there are many interpretations about the precise meaning of the song, I have always felt that the phrase "can 't knock the hustle" means that there is no substitute for hard work: that hard work always harvests respect and success. To me, this is why Jay-Z is great. He is a hustler in the truest sense of…

When the time of life comes where graduating from high school seems to be a blur, the perfect choice in selecting the right college may appear difficult. Applying to schools near and far to find the quintessential example of a college experience gives the impression of stressful times, when in reality it is all a part of the process. Schools like the University of Alabama have caused many to decide to attend school there for numerous reasons. Examples of these reasons are the beautiful campus,…

Sitting in the busy hustle and bustle of a Friday Night in Columbia Mo. is ARTlandish Gallery, a small art gallery that allows local artists to showcase their work for the college town. ARTlandish has taken full advantage of the impressive art scene that Columbia boasts, and it has done so in the form of First Friday. ARTlandish sits in the middle of Downtown Columbia, snuggled in between a couple buildings and overlooking E. Walnut Street. ARTlandish has been in Columbia for six years, and…

Even though I never attended or been part of an activist group, as part of the black community and as an African American, I always stood up for the black movement in our country. After taking this class I consider to be more focused on being a part of an activist group, to stand up for the right believes. Me, and I can speak for the whole black community is tired of the violence against individuals of color. You can’t just say white are good and black are back, we find in every race good and…

Growing up in my household there was always conversation around some family member starting a business. Albeit, the discussion usually revolved around how stupid they were to take such a big risk, but that never seemed to stop the startup trend. Everything from restaurants to spas and real estate agencies - you name it, and someone in my family has probably attempted to start it. In immigrant families bills needed to be paid and children needed to be fed, so when there was no job available- you…

much at once that I could watch the musical three times and still miss something major. If the play was stripped back then maybe profit and delight would have been more evident but with everything happening all at once they were swallowed by the hustle and bustle. One scene this is evident in is when Mark’s mother called and the actors continued their conversation so the audience had to focus on both at…
