A Proud Niece

My uncle owns a company that does Miami car rentals. It is not a big company, but he does alright for himself, that is for sure. He loves the company and has put his whole heart into it. When his wife passed away, he devoted his entire being to making the business a success.
When […]

My New Friends

I was given an Immigration interview sample to go over for my law class. I was studying to be a lawyer, working in immigration, and I was learning so much that I was sure that I could never remember everything. For part of my practicum, I was going to be working with a large family […]

Custom T Shirts for an Annual Golf Tournament

I was thinking about prizes for our company’s annual golf tournament and I thought it would be nice if all of the participants were given custom T shirts. These would not count as prizes, but the fee for entering would definitely allow for something like this.
I wanted to find a company that allowed you […]

Settling My Uncle’s Estate

As executor of my Uncle’s will, I was in charge of the living trust of his estate. I needed to sell his property and make sure that it was divided equally between his three children. I did my best in the situation, but it is not something that I would undertake again, as it did […]

My mom has found her calling. She has always been an exceptional seamstress. I had the nicest clothes growing up and not one piece of them had come from a store. She is amazing. She sewed me the nicest seat covers for Christmas for my new car. It was amazing, as it was something that […]

Funny Job Offer

While I was vacationing in Europe with my parents, after high school graduation, I was offered a job to work for as a cheap car hire France employee. This was so amusing to me. I was wondering if they were always trying to hire out of country workers and if it was a big scam […]

Making a Landlord’s Life Easier

Now, I am sure most of you are not landlords out there, but for those of you who have had the experience, you know that it is not always a walk in the park.  Between keeping the grounds and the inside of the property in tip-top shape, they have to deal with problems, fix things, […]

For The Love of Reading

Last month, I purchased my very first item in an Internet store. I have to admit that I was super paranoid that it would not come or that it would come damaged. Not only that, but I was very nervous about giving my credit card information online. But, I thought I needed to get with […]
