acting like he is a little agitated with me. It has also been a week and four days since I last walked through the doors of Dogwood High though. (a.k.a hell on Earth.) I walked through the front doors of the school a little later in the evening. Everyone looked at me like they thought I disappeared or something, I guess no one told them what happened to me. Connor avoids me during school so no one knows what’s really going on between us. Blair spotted me out of all of the crowd of people, I don’t

It’s been a year, a year since I changed someone’s life. I mean yes of course I get told that I’ve changed someone’s life at the end of every other class but this client was different.

It was a busy day at Starbucks, where I worked as a barista. The line was backed up almost out the door. I saw a vaguely familiar woman with wavy brunette locks and a waifish figure enter the coffeeshop. Beside her was a man who looked to be in his mid-50’s. He led her to an armchair in the corner and got in line. I snuck glances at her out of the corner of my eye while I made one of the drinks, trying to figure out why I recognized her wide brown eyes.

Some Clamor Louder “Life is a small, spinning oyster, and it is one that I do not wish to eat.” Emily’s proclamations often situate themselves between the abstruse and the overwrought, and tonight, at this booth, in this sleek little Asian-fusion restaurant, she has welded both worlds. “Em,” I sigh, “there’s more on the menu than just seafood.” “Well, maybe I don’t want any of it. Maybe I want to starve.” “Fine, then starve.” In the eleventh grade, Emily presented an original poem for our English

have failed to provide me a deep root, I simply can not use emotion to actually build up my resilience, however, playing on my psychological root can support both psychological and emotional roots. Today, I can say that I am an optimistic person. I trained my brain to actually pursue a goal whatever difficulty it encounters, and today it works. My cultural root are based on the idea that a man is only successful outside the household. Having this idea in mind, I have to be always excellence and successful

It was a raining day. I didn’t think I have ever been so serious before. “..When did my mom lose her voice?” I asked my grandma with a heavy tone. “She was 20 years old, almost the same as your current age.

She was young and she has her dreams to achieve. How can she be stuck at her 20s?” I thought my feelings was

blood family knows I exist, they just wish they didn’t. My mom is an angry drunk, and my dad beats me with no provocation. My other family, or friends I guess, are pretty nice. They’re greasers, and I am too. I’m not as tough or mean looking as the other greasers, but I get along okay. It’s strange, rather than picking on me, the gang (my substitute family) protects me.

My birth name holds no identity in and of itself; Instead, it is the independent choices that I make for myself that will determine what my birth name will come to represent. Additionally, I can also relate to Coriolanus’ feelings of fear because I do not know how to go about finding my own identity. As a matter of fact, I empathize with Coriolanus’
