Chapter FIVE: Family Reunion? Yeah Right! It 's not everyday I get woken up by my mom drunkenly screaming that she found her husband. I looked at the clock, 3:30. I had no idea how to nurse a hangover and better yet no idea how to talk to my mom even while she 's drunk. This had only happened the day my dad disappeared. After that she left me at peace and rarely came to visit. “Sweet heart. I found your dad.” My mom proudly slurred “Mom please don 't ever come home drunk.” I say as she…

“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don 't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.”-Lao Tzu. Often humans don’t like sudden changes and being out of their comfort zone. We go through changes all throughout our lives, and often we learn to accept that change or at least adapt to it. Positive changes can help us with life’s situations and negative changes can help us learn to solve situations and…

I stood awkwardly in the living room with a bunch of Ariana 's friends and family. She sat beside me, holding onto my arm. It was Thanksgiving and she invited me there, since my family never celebrates Thanksgiving, I decided to go. "Yeah, we 're leaving for Michigan tomorrow to go meet my dad." Ariana smiled, looking up at me. "Are you nervous?" Mac asked her and she nodded her head fast. "Of course, I haven 't seen him in five years. I wonder if he looks different, I want to know what his…

I am truly myself when I am at peace. These moments of inner peace occur when I am in the following situations; with my family, communing with nature, and wearing traditional Indian clothes.

My family defines me in ways I cannot fully comprehend. My parents are my lifelong mentors and my siblings were my…

My First Trip Into the World of Electronic Music Lying in bed one summer evening about a year ago I realized the extent of my depression. As far as I knew, life was a desolate wasteland. Nothing made me happy anymore, not even the video games that had given me so much pleasure before. I heard a knock at the door that snapped me back to present. “Come in” I yell. The door opens and it’s my best friend Michael. “Hey” I say quietly. “What’s going on?” Michael asks. “Not much, just relaxing.” “Oh…

An unexpected knock comes from the door and I almost don’t answer. I don’t want to answer it. I’m back in the room, I woke up for the first time as a demon in this stupid rebel base. There are two guards constantly posted at my door, and it’s been nearly five days since we arrived. We was easy to escape the lab once in the carrier and within an hour, we picked up Walker and Skye. Flying was partly terrifying since mine and Flich’s flying skills are horrible. Even when Jensen woke up, he was…

The bedrock powerpoint was made to enhance our knowledge on how children learn and become who they are, whether they make the good choices in life, or bad ones. The three main important points that were made in it was brain architecture, serve and return, and toxic stress. These 3 points all determine how a child’s foundation starts and how their experiences in life affect how they will become. I thought this was an eye opener to how kids learn and form their own personality. When I first…

In the days that followed they met up on the balcony almost every night. Most nights they would discuss their plan, but they also talked about other things. “I don’t really understand why you want to blow up the senatorial.” He knew that was where the elector’s cabinet got together and concurred on matters of the state. But why was did Emmeline need to blow it up? “You know nothing do you. It was them who exiled me here and took everything from me. My father’s advisors or the cabinet as they…
