21 years old today and I’m going to head out with the boys for a few drinks down in Fortitude Valley. We all meet up a few minutes from the nightclub district. My friends decide to go to TheMet, we begin to drink, 2 drinks, 4, 6, 10 at this point we decide to head home.

Blood begins to trail into the gutter…

The Yellow Wallpaper had culture as one of its themes; one could see that through the narrator. The narrator seemed to have mental instability due to the fact that she was not allowed to visit certain people, or travel. This was mainly because her husband, who was also a physician, dismissed her mental issues on nerves and hysteria. Later on in the reading the narrator starts to see and imagine things vividly, mostly from not having anything to which occupy herself with. In today’s culture…

The concert that I will be critiquing is the late Amy Winehouse, Live at Shepherds Bush Empire in London, England. On May 29th 2007, solo artist, Amy Winehouse performed along with her backing band, a soul group called The Dap-Kings.

The Dap-Kings, male only band, consists of Dale Davis on the bass, Zalon…

customary appearance was crucially important when defining a woman in El Nahra. Women lived privately in “relative seclusion behind walls, not meeting or mixing with men,” and out of sight of the public view (Fernea 1989: 5). The wardrobe consisted of the black garments – chin scarf (foota), headscarf, (asha), and an abayah over a black dress. Fernea, being a Westerner was reluctant to wearing the garments at first, but she sensed to have more power in wearing the garments than if she were not…

As a kid, I grew up in a Christian home. My grandfather was a pastor and host of family members are ministers. I went to church three times a week. My parents had strict rules growing up. I was often teased in school for being the church girl. I was taught about God through my parent, bible and church. I realized my sinful nature when I attended high school. I started to rebel and hang out with the wrong crew. I was skipping school. I was even attending church, I was an usher and a choir…

There has never been anyone like Art Tatum, who is one of the greatest jazz musicians in history. Tatum was born on October 13, 1909, in Toledo, Ohio, and he was the child of amateur musicians. His father was a mechanic, and his mother was a housemaid who worked in white homes. Although he was not born into a wealthy family, his unique talents helped propel him into the spotlight. If anything, Tatum proved that it was not impossible to become a world-class extraordinaire despite growing up with…

Luciano began to court Igea in an old-fashioned, gallant way, sending her flowers and presents, waited for her every night at a cafe…
