It all began when my mom accepted a job offer and we moved clear across the country from New york to California in August.

The main sources of transportation were a taxi and your own legs. If you weren’t skinny when you got there, you are now. California is sunny all year-round and is filled with girls with abs and real…

His stormy grey eyes pierced into my green orbs. It was evident that he was drunk, and that was mainly because his eyes were darker than normal. I was curious to what alcoholic drink was flowing throughout his body. One quick sniff and I could tell that scotch was taking over his veins.

(the band/album), and wow this album is good and apparently there is another coming later this year after a seventeen year drought, and I’ll be able to say I was a fan when they only had one album. I’m sure you’ve heard the album, but if you haven 't, you should check it out.

They do some really good instrumental covers of old school rap (Tribe Called…

TED Talks are created by passion, intelligent individuals who have amazing messages to share with the world. While some topics have more of a direct correlation to my life than others, these…
