When I first saw and heard @shyheim_rugged I was in awe at how a young kid can spit some gangsta ass rhymes and not sound like they were spoon fed to him. I became a fan instantly. #NowListening🎧 #NowPlaying #Shyheim - #JiggyComin #TheLostGeneration #Shaolin #StatenIsland #WuTangClan #Dope #Rapper #Emcee #GangstaRap #hardbodyhiphop #NewYork #NY #Lyrics #Lyricist #EastCoastRap #hiphop #hiphophead #hiphopjunkie #rawrap #music #art #musictomyears #AVClub https://www.instagram.com/p/BvR3XADArZp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14dvv2clhh63v
When it comes to comprehending the emotional obstacles of an incoming generation to academia, I think creative writing professors like myself have an advantage. Our assignments pull from that same preternatural place of creativity that also houses all their joy, trauma, and anger. There is so much more happening to them than most teachers, the media, and even their parents realize.
Even though I…
The residence of Ernest Hemingway while lived in Paris for a year and a half. Ernest Hemingway was one of the people who made the latin quarter famous and was made famous by - a two way street with most interesting results. Attracted by the ancient and academic appeal of the latin quarter, only to help turn it into one of Paris' watering holes, especially the place de Contrescarpe in the nearest vicinity of the small studio apartment. #latinquarter #quartierlatin #ernesthemingway #hemingway #lostgeneration #thelostgeneration #americaninparis #americansinparis #famousamericans https://www.instagram.com/p/CGALw5QpF8x/?igshid=5q3t5akg02tz

"What a lovely afternoon and evening. Now we'd better have lunch." "I'm very hungry," I said. "I worked at the café on café crème." "How did it go, Tatie?" "I think all right. I hope so. What do we have for lunch?" "Little radishes, and good foie de veau with mashed potatoes and an endive salad. Apple tart." "And we're going to have all the books in the world to read and when we go on trips we can take them." "Would that be honest?" "Sure." "Does she [Sylvia Beach] have Henry James too?" "Sure." "My," she said. "We're lucky that you found the place." "We're always lucky," I said and like a fool I did not knock on wood. There was wood everywhere in that apartment to knock on too. --Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast #hemingway #paris #sylviabeach #shakespeareandcompany #sketch #drawing #inktoberneverends #inkonpaper #lamyjoy #knockonwood #amoveablefeast #parisyears #thelostgeneration #earnesthemingway #vbborjen
In my first entry of my blog I discussed the Lost Generation as depicted in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises and how I felt I connected with it in someway. Now that I have been in Europe for over 150 days, I can not help but feel even more so.
Jake Barnes is the main character of The Sun Also Rises. A veteran of WWI and an American Expat who lives in Paris as a journalist, spends his days socializing, drinking and writing with other Expats who never left Europe after the war. He also is most notable for having a deep and complicated relationship with Lady Brett Ashley with which there are numerous and continuous complications.
I find myself at an interesting point of my stay here. My love life has become complicated indeed and I too have sought and succeeded in finding work as a freelance writer in Paris.
The Lost Generation was characterized as a group of people who after exiting the war, found themselves Lost in a world they did not recognize, trying to find themselves in the cosmopolitan city of Paris. I too am on a journey of self-discovery, aiming to find myself in the very same city, learn along the way, and perfect my art as a writer. I have become surrounded with other fellow expats who are either students, young professionals or artists as well.
I wonder if whether or not this is all mere coincidence, that I have found myself following in similar footsteps as the main character of the novel I so idolize.
I have traveled much in the recent weeks, I spent a few weeks in England, travelling from city to city. My eyes are being opened to the world around me, and I am excited for the life lessons that will come from all of the new developments that have unfolded.
There is a quote from the Sun Also Rises that I wish to share.
“You can’t get away from yourself by moving from one place to another.”
