I swiftly sauntered in to the makeup parlor and greeted Fromage Verde. He was a French makeup artist and was at the acme of his career as he transformed young spies to suit their mission. I flashed a half-heartened smile before I sat in the comfy black chair as one of his assistants draped me in a black apron. My natural ombre hair fell to my low back but it was usually pulled up into a trendy ponytail. As Fromage got to work he cut my hair to my shoulders and I cringed as I saw my hair fall to the floor. He straightened my hair and dyed it a dirty blonde hair style.

"It was only a little bump the other day and practically overnight…" sobbed the elderly lady as she struggled to describe a lesion that was growing on her ear. Rachel, the physician assistant, rested a comforting hand on the frail old woman's shoulder and told her, "We need to go ahead and remove this; first we will deaden it," in a sweet yet confident tone. A chill ran down my spine when the woman took a deep breath, turned to me, and softly asked "Karen will you numb me? It does not hurt when you do it." I was overwhelmed with happiness and gratification. I grabbed the syringe and began injecting the lidocaine to numb the area for the shave biopsy.

Being in New York has a vibe that is unmatched; there is no comparison anywhere in the United States – the energy is so massive and captivating that it sucks you in. It’s so easy to lose track and bounce around if your goals aren’t concrete and you lack a strong work ethic. As a young male entertainer, the entrapment was magnified: Girls, girls, girls and more beautiful, sophisticated and available girls. It’s the fly in the ointment–you may need it, but not all the time and so learning to balance my new position was extremely important. I loved the attention, not primarily just from women but executives; the business folks recognized that I brought a unique style and quality to the table. It’s where every young musician and artist long

My situations were very similar to theirs.

The day was 11/10/1918. I was heading home from the war, and I was more tired than I ever thought a man could be. It was the last few days of the war, and we knew that Germany couldn’t fight much longer so we took lots of troops back home. We were a few hours away from shore, and I couldn’t wait to see my children. I wondered how big they might have gotten. They were only three years old when I left, and it has been two years. I also wondered how much they wanted to see me, or if they even remembered me. I thought that they had to remember who I was. They were three, they could remember things like that. I was In my room and I was talking to my roommate trying to pass the time. We had been sleeping in the same room for a couple of days,

SMEs have difficulties in having access to formal finance and are more financially constrained than larger enterprises. According to Beck and Demirguc-Kunt (2016)’s survey, “the probability that a small firm lists financing as a major obstacle (as opposed to moderate, minor or no obstacle) is 39% compared to 36% for medium-size firms and 32% for large firms.” The result shows that SMEs have a harder time than large enterprises in accessing to finance options. For a reason, Beck and

Wars have been waging on the Earth as far back as written history in its various forms of art could document. In the past, military conflict was far more unforgiving than it is today as modern international humanitarian laws have regulated war to a certain extent. Civilians are now protected against various war crimes such as genocide and therefore distanced from the wars waged by their nation’s government against enemies. This distance and protection given to the civilian population has numbed them to the various horrors of war going on overseas. People do not have to worry about their safety or the lives of their children when the closest thing to war people experience is provided by images and video from limited news coverage in the

Iowa offers over 100 different academic opportunities to over 24,000 students. The school is located in Iowa City, Iowa, which is only a short, hour and a half drive from Dubuque.

I came to Houston for my college few years ago and since then I am living in the same neighborhood but there are some older people who are living here from the last couple of decades. There was a playground which used to be there for the community’s kids but now kids don’t go there anymore because of few bad reasons. Then there is a corner store which is a gas station and I get gas from there every week and I have been going to this store for a long time and I know the store owner. He told me about the crimes happened in the past and how his store is related in all these criminal activities but being a store owner he cannot do anything because he cares for himself and his family too.

Ever since the “United Socialist Party of Venezuela” took control of the country’s affairs in 1999, the economic situation has worsened with the passage of time. Throughout the years, careless and corrupt government officials have enacted policies that focus on benefitting high-ranked party members and their families, making the majority of citizens suffer under terrible circumstances. Among these circumstances we can find the long queues that people have to go through to access basic goods because of the critical shortages of products. This situation leads me to an unforgettable anecdote that I have kept in my memory for a long time. I remember that one day when I was 14 years old, my brother Leonardo picked me up from school at 1 p.m. As
