Beautiful beaches 4,000 miles apart, a playground for dreamers and innovators all across. This magnificent land being envied and respected simultaneously, the moving pinnacle of society. This land is where I was headed far from the upcoming yet comparatively shackled society rooted from the Amazon. A young, raw, and impressionable mind noting…

In the “Bull City”, it was Independence Day in the United States of America. My best friend and I, as usual planned to go to Downtown Raleigh for fellowship and fireworks.

Stockton witnessed a short-lived but thriving community of manongs as we can gather today from the dance halls and the Little Manila Foundation.

If you were a sports fan in Hartford the day of my birth you had probably traveled to Dell Rapids the night before to see the West Central Boys basketball team. The Trojans, who defeated the Quarriers 76-68, were lead by Tucker Hansen, who had 23 points (“West Central 76, Dell Rapids 68” 4C). Also from around the Sioux Empire the police were searching for the driver of a truck that hit a pedestrian. The driver of truck hit a man from behind on 31st Street North and between Cliff and Van Eps…

The Lansdowne portrait is a famous painting of George Washington which now resides in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C. (George, np).
