I was born in downtown Kansas City in 1997, and have lived in a suburb of the city for my entire life. This city has grown so much over the last two decades and is now booming with restaurants, night life, and event centers. One thing this city is famous for is the barbecue, and when anyone tells me that they are either taking a trip to or just driving through KC, I always tell them to make sure to stop by and get some of the best barbecue that can be found in the country.

Every Summer for the last three years I have had the opportunity to visit Aliso Viejo, California with my fiancée to visit her grandmother who lives there. During our trips, we always take a day or two to visit the beach and the shops along the Laguna Beach strip. The food, views, and weather in Laguna Beach are some of the best in the area.

    Oh, you are not the only Kansas City fan so far, Randy; Daniel in Indian Epics is also a Kansas City fan! Kansas City and Arezzo: My Favorite Places... but of course Kansas City does not have a beach, so how great that you have an excuse to go to Aliso Viejo: it looks lovely!

Hi everyone, my name is Randy Scharnhorst and I am currently a senior here at the University of Oklahoma and am in my last semester for finishing my degree in Health and Exercise Science. I am originally from Overland Park, Kansas, and have been attending the University of Oklahoma for the last three and a half years. The reason I chose to come to Oklahoma is because of a few important things. First of all, my girlfriend (current fiancée) was attending school at Oklahoma Baptist so this was a great option for me to be close to her. The second reason is that when first touring the campus, I felt like this was home. source :  Block O U. credit Wikimedia BOOMER SOONER! I had been on many college visits and this campus really felt comfortable and perfect for me. The third reason, and maybe the most important reason is that I wanted to continue my athletic career throughout college, and as a gymnast, there is no better place in the country than the University of Oklahoma.

Week 5 Story: The Burger, The Fry, and the Milkshake

Image
The great King McDonald ruled over all of the western hemisphere of the area of land named the Chain. In this great kingdom, there were other three other kings, King Freddy, who ruled the northern hemisphere, King Wendy, who ruled the eastern hemisphere, and finally King Whatta, who ruled the southern hemisphere. Once a year, all the kings would get together and talk about economics, war, and politics. One day, King McDonald told the other kings that his three most valuable possessions had disappeared, his Burger Sapphire, his Fry Ruby, and his beloved Milkshake Gauntlet. These were three of the most valuable items in all of the Chain. The other kings were not surprised that they had gone missing, as King McDonald was known for being out late partying and drinking with the clowns of his kingdom. Each of the kings offered their condolences and went back to their homelands.  When King McDonald returned home, a local hobbit came forward and told the king that he had
