This past week, my Mom, Ms. Latina, gave me the chance to head to Times Squares' very own Olive Garden with two of my closest friends: Jose and Joyee.

I brought my 1st car in 2003.  A few months later, I crashed in a very weird chicken accident that caused a four-car pile up. Thankfully, we survived. It's never let me down. It may not be the sexiest car, but I don't think I could have handled sexy at that point. Times have changed. Now [...]
