    The Devil in the White City

    From the beginning, Chicago was introduced to the reader as a place that was only known for its smell that resembled a slaughter house and the Great Fire that forced the city to start once again from scratch, but after the fair, that changed. The White City brought not only more visitors, money and recognition to the city, but also it gave it more value in the eyes of the eastern cities that didn’t believe Chicago could pull such an amazing creation off. The beautiful architecture, variety of exhibits and inventions, and the massive size was a surprise to the eyes of all non-believers. Since the invention of the Ferris Wheel was created to top off the main attraction in Paris’s fair, the Eiffel Tower, it definitely became a big hit as soon as it opened. From that point on, the Ferris Wheel is seen in all fairs around the US and even the world. Because of that invention, Chicago’s numbers in population at the Fair increased dramatically.…

    Personal Narrative: My Trip To Vietnam

    First off, trip to Vietnam was truly a blessing. I did not expect so much of the trip until the first day I arrived Vietnam. On my first day, I got an opportunity to meet many great people who were selfless; those who cared more about others rather than themselves. It took approximately 14hours in total to arrive at hotel. Even though the plane ride was only about 5hours, since it was a group trip, it took extra time to ensure everyone is in right place. Despite the exhaustion and drowsiness, no one complained but encouraged others. I was already touched by grace of God before we even began our mission trip. On the second day, I volunteered for the medical service. There were two activities including the medical service, and house painting…

    What was once just a rail yard, rose up to become a great addition to the City of New York. Real estate developers bought air rights and built apartment towers that became some of the most exclusive residents in not only New York City, but the United States. Next door to the terminal the “Valley of Giants” was created, large skyscrapers began to form the skyline of the city. Walter Chrysler bought a site near Grand Central for the Chrysler’s Company international headquarters. At the time, he built the world’s tallest building. The building held the title for 11 months before the Empire State Building was completed. The area was also home to not only Irwin Chanin’s building, a real estate king, but also to the Daily News Buildings. More businesses flocked to be near to the Grand Central Terminal, including law firms and advertising agencies. It became the center of America’s service industry. This was just one part of the large city with many more to explore through research.…

Pleasantly, we left for the CN Tower, which we thought couldn’t be a great amount of distance from our hotel. We were wrong!…

    Personal Narrative: Where The Sidewalk Ends

    I always keep this poem and picture in my wallet. I take it everywhere with me because it means quite a lot to me in two very different ways. One of those ways is because it holds sentimental value. When I was younger I learned to read very late in life and I was always so embarrassed of that. My father knew that I was struggling and bought me the book, Where the Sidewalk Ends. It is a book full of poems and little pictures written by Shel Silverstein. I remember opening the book to ta random page, and it was the page with this poem. I then remember my dad asking me to read it to him. I was so uncomfortable, even thought I was just going to be reading to my dad. He gave me some words of encouragement, and even thought I was not able to read…
