The £1 Billion Lie – A Look Into The State Of Chelsea Football Club

I can stand for banter, I cannot stand for lies. Alright, I got the cringe introduction out of the way. I don’t want to make this some melodramatic piece where I beg for your sympathy.

Gator Abroad: My Experience Studying Abroad In England

In a word, my experience studying abroad in England, was…fulfilling.
