Omaha, Nebraska is a beautiful city, but my heart belongs to Los Angeles, California. There are some beautiful places here in Nebraska. We have beautiful lakes, hiking trails, the Iowa-Nebraska bridge downtown, and we actually get all four seasons here. But, I feel like nothing will ever compare to California. First of all, in California, you could hike, surf, ski, and ride dune buggies all in the same day! There are so many trails and canyons to hike, so many beaches to sun bathe, and so much more variety when it comes to restaurants. I love that here in Nebraska we have plenty of amazing steaks, but I just miss the abundance of seafood in California, which we lack here. I may sound biased, but I've given Nebraska a try for almost two

You'll thread through Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur. Don't get me wrong, there's some really pretty scenic drive here in Nebraska too, but I just love the ocean view way more. When you're in California, make sure to stop and check out some historical sights such as the Grand Hearst Castle. I haven't even gotten started on the San Francisco Bay Area. You have the South Bay, East Bay, Peninsula, North Bay, and San Francisco, each of which having something interesting to offer. In the South Bay, there's San Jose and Santa Clara County, which many often describe as the heart of Silicon Valley. It's the tech, innovation capital of the country, and offers companies such as Google, Facebook, eBay, Apple, Intel, and the Nasa Ames Research Center. Silicon Valley stretches slightly into the Peninsula. The Peninsula has some impressive scenery especially along the coast - you have those mysterious beaches on Half Moon Bay and Moss Beach, and these awe-inspiring mountains in La Honda, Woodside, and Pescadero. On the tip of Peninsula, you can find San Francisco! San Francisco is home to the best restaurants, smartest, and the sharpest people. The Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman's Wharf, the Transamerica Pyramid, sports, those charming Victorian houses and apartments, cable cars, tech start-ups, culture, and nightlife. It's no wonder some people name it the best city in America. On the East Bay, you have the exotic, somewhat dangerous but sharp and pretty cities of Oakland, Fremont, and Berkeley. The North Bay sports Napa Valley Wine

Everybody at least wants to go somewhere new in their lifetime. Perhaps it’s to visit family or maybe it’s to get away from the same old, same old, I’ll admit Indiana is pretty boring.

I am starting my essay with what place I am doing. I am doing White Haven, Pennsylvania, It is a New Sweeden land turned into Pennsylvania land. This city is a small town, there is not so much history of this city. The Historical Landmarks I think are very interesting, The Liberty Bell and Gettysburg Battlefield. I personally think that this is a very interesting city myself. The Liberty bell is a bell that was first rung on July 8, 1776 to celebrate the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence. Gettysburg Battlefield is a Battle fought by Union and Confederate forces during the American civil war. I would love to go and see the Liberty bell and the Gettysburg Battlefield. I’m not into history that much, but I would still like to go see those things.
Harlem, New York in the Twenties was a place where colored people had migrated to show their talents. It was a time when African American Artist, Writers, Dancers, Musicians, and Doctors decided to show the world how spectacular they were. Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, and Langston Hughes were just a few famous names that arrived during this time. One sensational woman stood out among the rest, her name was Josephine Baker. She took a stand and fought for what she believed in, she was a strong and passionate women and she never let anyone get in the way of the things she loved to do. No matter how risqué or dangerous it may have been.
In Paul Celan’s poem “Zurich, at the Stork,” the narrator and Nelly Sachs have a theological debate about God. The narrator says that he “spoke / against him [God]” which demonstrates Celan’s presumably newfound disdain for God (2280). Seeing as most of Celan’s poetry revolves around the second World War, this hatred likely stems from his time in a concentration camp. While Celan spends his time arguing against God, Sachs counters him by saying “We / really don’t know, you know” which demonstrates how little humans know about God. To Celan, God likely appeared as someone who does not care about humans nor wished to prevent events like the Holocaust from happening after already happening once. In contrast, Sachs does not appear to have this
Los Angeles is one of the most exciting cities in the United States. According to the Los Angeles post record tourist numbers in 2012, the city attracts 41.4 million visitors per year.
