Boston Night market was basically a foodie's paradise. I thought I was ready to conquer all the different food trucks but with the night still young I HAD to wave my little white flag of defeat. . If you love food. If you love food trucks. If you love Asian- inspired cuisine. If you love k-pop performances. then you need  to attend next year's night market. And oh yeah, tickets sold out. Some of my friends could not make it to the event because it was a sold out event. See you there next year!

after reading his book,  Born a Crime I.  I have been misusing the quote " Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, teach a man how to fish, you feed him for a life time" Trevor talks about how no matter how much you teach the man, if you don't give him a fishing rod aka TOOLS OF SUCCESS, he's still not going to be able to catch the fish and feed himself for a lifetime. This is so true when it comes to breaching the opportunity gap between socioeconomic classes.  It's not just about motivating people to work hard* It's about combining their hard work ethics with tools such as academic/merit scholarships, internship opportunities, employment opportunities, small business loans for entrepreneurs, etc...... Without the fishing pole, there is no hope. This is the problem with Africa at large...too many brilliant students who have spent years memorizing text books but no opportunities of employment for them to put to use what they have....
