Philosophy Of Life Forrest Gump
1,812 wordsA Waif in the Wind of Obsessive Corruption! A professor once asked me to write an essay on what I thought was the philosophy of life.

Hip Hop Gang Violence
1,734 wordsol> In searching for a properly post-modern style of music, it may be better to look at the electronic music scene, which began with house music in the early to middle 80 s, rather than at hip-hop.
