A New Road Bikes On Friday Morning

Doris and I ride our new road bikes on Friday morning. For ten minutes we warm up, and then, pedal in the direction to Malibu. The air is cool with early morning fog. Doris leads and I follow. Her pace is faster than usual. No problem. I ride my bike to ride my bike. I have a low-keyed Friday. I’ve scheduled a pitch meeting at eleven with a new writer. The agent I met recently said his client “Thinks out of the box.” I would rather that and am keen to meet him. There’s an hour before, so I

Working full time and being a full time student, I realize how quickly time passes. I start my day by waking up early in the morning, heading off to work, then commuting to Fresno to attend school. As my lifestyle continues to consistently change, I find myself focusing on tasks that need to be done instead of taking time to focus on my self-care. Whether it’s getting caught up on work email or finishing an essay for school, I always put my self-care on the back burner, which results in feelings

the hard way. That is the way I learned the old adage “no pain, no gain”. It was my first dirt bike race. My heart had been pounding like a drum in a high school band for three days before the race. The race was in the middle of nowhere in Tucson, Az. I arrived on a Friday, my race was on Saturday. It was sunny out, but there was a slight breeze blowing the tent around, making it hard to set up. Friday evening was the practice run, where all the riders got the chance to pre-run the course for the

It Isn’t Big to Make Others Feel Small “Erica, hurry up over there!” Hanley shouts across the smoothie shop as I pay for my drink. Every Friday, my friends and I go to Robin’s Smoothies across the street from Eva’s house. Today is extra busy because of the 4th of July town parade down the street. It’s a hot, sunny day and the ice cold smoothie feels refreshing as ever. “See you next week, girls!” The owner says as we exit the shop. We start heading down the street and I can already hear the noises

counters joined the EU, they were given vast access to capital in a form of loans, and the amount of money they borrowed increased rapidly. Smaller counters suddenly had lager access for credit like never before so they borrowed money and built houses, roads, and health sectors. Even If the EU member states were unable to repay their loans economically strong countries like Briton, and germen would stepped in and cover some of the loses because they were now bound by a common currency.

of my best friends when I had moved to Florida. My family and I were brand new to the state. School, of course, is never fun being the new kid, but thanks to Anuruk he made it feel more like home. We had some weird sense of connection that made us instant friends; the connection family members have. A week later Anuruk called. Or just Ruk. Invited my over to hang out and do a little bit of fishing in the creek down the road. I of course accepted. As I arrived, I met his house; a bleach white, ranch

Stone’s Annotated Bibliography Brown, Dan. The Da Vinci Code. Corgi Books, 2016. My family bought me this book while I was visiting them in China. China was always filled with smog as if it was God’s break room. Every building tall enough as if to reach out to the dark skies and gloomy atmosphere. Natively spread out across the city of Beijing lived most of my family excluding me, my parents, and step-siblings. I’d visit them as the last male heir to the Sha name and they adored me. I had a cousin

pre-production will go ahead, as scheduled. With the last order of business completed, Thom and his production team depart for his office. I hurry to mine to phone the agent who represents the writer of “Life in the Fast Lane.” I finished the script on Friday, and am eager to schedule a date/time to meet with her. Before I get a chance, Harry delivers the mail which includes several envelopes from agencies. He stands at my desk

very certain that the desire of life prolongs it.” (Aphorisms:Life) Lord Byron lived from 1788 to 1824 and was a big contribution to the Romanticism era (Lord Byron Biography). Romanticism was an era of creation made of feelings and expression and new deep thought (Romanticism). This aphorism is definitely a reflection of the era. (Romanticism) I believe that this aphorism means that being excited and enthusiastic about living and wanting to live will make your life longer. If you’re always dreading

most challenging parts of any back-to-school guide you put together for yourself. When you think about it, of course, you realize that family linkage far surpasses the importance of other things that seem so crucial during the back to school season. New clothes, lunch boxes, school supplies, activity registrations and transportation all drain time and energy from parents. Trying to lay out the school year from the beginning so that everyone can find sufficient time for fun and studies can be really
