"How was your first day?!" My mom called from the kitchen as I slammed the door to the apartment. "Great, just great." I muttered. My mom emerged from the kitchen, wiping her hands on a towel and frowning. Her brown hair was pulled back into a ponytail and she was still in her work clothes. My mom works at the hair shop down the street, it doesn 't bring in much money but it 's enough to keep us alive, I suppose. "Was that sarcasm that I heard?" She cocked an eyebrow at me questionably.

The Pole that Split a Friendship Jacob might have been a very superstitious person who had weird habits, but it didn’t change the fact that he was my best friend. We did everything together from the minute we met, most people found his superstitious ways weird, but I had grown to like them. As the ambulance carried him away I was in tears knowing that our friendship was over, and the only thing I could blame was that pole.

The name makes me get lots of butterflies! It was a…

Blanche, My dear Blanche, I realise that you are not aware of this but when I look into your eyes my entire world fills with light. It is none other than you who becomes this light that effortlessly pulls me away from the darkness within my soul: my insecurity.
