2004 in film

I was afraid to pick Doodle up. My hand wrapped around his body and my other hand wrapped around his head, holding him up. The blood started to drip out of his mouth and onto my shirt and stained it. He was so heavy, I didn't want to drop him because he was so fragile. I stopped every couple of minute to fix him because he would start to slide down and my arms were so weak and tired. The mud was so thick that my shoe came off and I had to take them off and walk. I was mentally in pain, I was…

"Thanks for answering so throughly," the man said sarcastically. "I'm sorry..." Jonathan looked down, not sure what to say next. "Well, where's your folks?" "I don't know." The man sighed to himself. "It sure is odd to see young kids over here all on their own," the man said. "Who are you," Jonathon asked again. "Call me... Phil." Jonathon nodded, and Phil extended a hand. "It's nice to meet you," Phil said, and then they shook hands. "It's nice to meet you too," Jonathon muttered…

My name seemingly means noble and strength, but looking at myself, I don’t understand where that is coming from. Saying that I have strength would be like saying the sun isn’t hot, simply untrue. Most people perceive me for being a fairly scrawny person with not entirely a lot of muscle. I went through this horrifying moment at my FBLA conference where our chapter participated in multiple team building activities at the national guard military base, meaning everyone would individually need to…

get married and focus on turning Pollack’s talent in art into something original and new. The film from here focuses on how Pollack creates his trademark technique of dripping or action painting, which leads to an article about him and his work in Life magazine. Lee and Pollack believe that this is only the beginning of the successes to come for Pollack. A man named Hans Namuth takes up an opportunity to film about Pollack and how he paints but this leads to Pollack feeling as though the movie…

I awoke with a gasp; I was disoriented. My breaths were frantic and sporadic. I examined the room in which I had awoken in. I rest my eyes upon a frail and sickly looking man who had a expression on his face of utter horror. The man frantically left room; I attempted to go after him, but quickly I fell to the ground. My body felt alien to me. I examined my body to find a thin, pale skin that covered my grotesque body. My veins and arteries were visible through my skin. The skin was so tight my…

Hovering over the submit button with a sense of relief, excitement, but also melancholy Margaret Kawarski realized her final attachment to her undergraduate career at DePaul University has come to an end. “It’s done,” said Kawarsi with a smile infused with enthusiasm and a touch of fear. “I have officially entered the real world. Wow.” For Kawarski, one of the most anticipated days of her life so far has finally come. After four years of countless hours spent in the library, sleepless nights…

"Were out here in Texas, boy. Some strained version of that parasite from a year ago has gone and killed everyone you know. Nothing left for us out there" he paused, taking a deep, labored breath sounding almost as if he was in a great amount of pain, yet trying to hold it back. "Will you let me go, please." Asher pleaded. "YOU DEAF BOY?! I DAMN TOLD Y'ER E'RY YOU KNOW IS ROTTING ON THE SIDE OF THE DAMN ROAD AND YOURE TELLING ME YOU WANT TO LEAVE?!" The doctor couhed, trying to yell…

I guess the moral of the story is it’s a small world and I’ve been a bumpy roller coaster that I unknowingly took a lot of good people on, but I’ve tore it down. I know now you’ve been flying above watching the whole time waiting for me to get to the right place and hop off though. You tried to get me there once and I stumbled because I didn’t have to tools or strength, I was put in a padded room surrounded my everyone from family friends to coworkers and strangers (its not paranoia). Once you…

The Forest Cult It’s late, I’m running. Sprinting away from something don’t know the likes of. At this anonymous forest, heart pumping, feet are numb, I feel like my body is about to get annihilated. I check my phone “Wow, it’s already 2 am”. My phone battery is drained to the last bit, I fall into a deep sleep, and suddenly, all hope has disappeared. November of 2009: “Hey,” she says waking me from my half-asleep and half-awake state “Want a drink?”. “Sure,” I say, signaling a bartender to get…

A beam of sunlight trickled into the room, somehow managing to find a gap on the thick black curtains hanging dangerously on the wall. It hit my skin, burning with excruciating pain. I pulled my hand out the way, noticing how pale it had become. I could already feel the thirst for blood developing inside, and my heartbeat was all I could focus on. The steady pumping of blood around my veins, so... I sat upright before I could finish the thought. I ran my tongue along the top of my teeth, feeling…
