I'm finished with my second year of university yet there's not much to be excited about. I'm a mess, but I've been here before a few times and it always seems to get worse.

Sunny, clear blue skies, hot gusts of wind blow by. Sweat dripping down your face and chest. You look around at the girls dressed in pretty pink bows, mini skirts and flowing silky hair. Palm trees weave about with the wind, and you itch for something inside. Erotic images make their way into your mind, and you wish you had an outlet. Something to loosen your mind. You wa...

Alice Dunbar Nelson was born in the New Orleans of 1875. Part black, part white, part Creole, she was one of the 1% of Americans who went to college during the late 1800s. At 20 years old, she moved to New York and co-f...

He was born in Long Island in 1819. Raised second in a family of nine, Whitman looked back on his childhood as generally restless and unhappy, given his family's difficult economic status. One happy moment that he later recalled was when he was lifted in the air and kissed on the c...
