I will also be finding the similarities between Chinese, Filipino, and Japanese immigrants.…

When ones first thought of Japan is sushi, it usually is not far off from a typical American. In the 1940’s Americans were thinking about what to do about those “Commi Japs” out east. Ever since they bombed Pearl Harbor, no American could get the Japanese off his or her mind and it led us into a hard rough next few years fighting World War II. Germany was tough, but fighting Japan was the real challenge, mostly because of their armies mindset, which was never surrender. So they would go in guns…

My mom took to a vegetarian diet for religious reasons and since she is the homemaker, so did the rest of my family. Now that I am living on my own I have the option, like many other vegetarians, to take up meat, but I haven 't. Not for religious reasons, but because I don 't feel the need to. The diner has several options that cater to vegetarians, even an entirely different counter for vegans. Recently, there has been a significant increase in universities and college campuses incorporating…

Dreams are known as a pleasant series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person 's mind during sleep. But what about the dreams people have when they are wide awake? Those “dreams” are known as a person’s hopes of achieving something they set their mind to. In the United States history, dreams were a big part of how the country became what it is today. In the past, people did not question the existence of an American dream as much as they do now. It was easier for someone to…

Imagine a seven-by-seven-mile metropolis, surrounded by several neighborhoods filled with homes with unique design in Presidio Heights or Nob Hill, tall office buildings in the Financial District, and amazing views of San Francisco and the Bay from the Golden Gate Bridge or Twin Peaks. As many people view San Francisco as one of the most expensive and difficult cities to live in, I like to think of it as my home away from home. It is a city of seekers and adventurers. I am a city girl and I love…

Downdraft 5 Someone once asked me if I could write a book about myself what would the title be and how do I see the ending of my life. I would title my book, “Why Naughty is the New Nice”. The reason for this title is because I am probably one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. I would do absolutely anything for anyone. Always being the nice girl means I work my ass off to get others to like me because I cannot stand to think that anyone hates me. I usually go out of my way to do favors for…

Perhaps a staple of the diets in many developed nations, my favorite dish is the traditional hamburger with fries that is typically found in most fast food chains in the Americas and Europe. Hamburgers are an extremely popular dish across many nations, and there are many sociological reasons that the dish is favored, in addition to the arguably almost addictive ingredients and chemical additives added in the most popular servings of this dish. Despite the many qualities of the current hamburger…

On the last day of November 2008. A young man was murmuring about his pain lying inside a hospital room. His eyes were dark, and his head became bold as a result of a series of chemotherapy and the effect of the medicines he took. He could not breathe well, even with the help of an oxygen mask because his tumor metastasized to the lung. The doctor told his family to prepare for the worst situation as this was going to be his last few hours before death. Family members were surrounding him and…
