Shaela is a caring friend. Although Shaela is caring, she is also gifted when it comes to academics. In school she is a…

But when the history behind the Games, the entertainment witnessed by the spectators, and the dedication of the athletes are taken into consideration, the Games become more than just the greatest athletes competing on the world’s largest stage, they transform into a place for unity, sportsmanship, and extreme competition.

The debate was between White Castle and and A&W.

Since we are only twenty three years apart, I thought it would be best to focus on her life up to the point where she decided to have kids. Though I knew most of what she told me it was still nice to just sit and talk about her life experiences. My mother was born to older parents and was the youngest of three children. Being that her brother was 13yrs. her…

Over the past three months my spending habits were pretty mellow for the…

This leads to the birth of men who can push the…
