Some people have their moments of standing up to someone or something, or rather just a courageous moment overall. Some people have stood up to their school bullies or confronted their childhood bullies later in life, and good for them! Until they’re hanging by their underwear on a flagpole. Don’t worry about it. Anyway, since I was young then “but, but… You’re only fourteen. You’re still a child” hush my child. Just go with it. I never understood how someone could feel if they were lost and I…

Deep in the forest there was a bunny’s burrow, her name was Wendy. Three miles away there was a fox’s hut, his name was Brad. The Wendy’s biggest fear was coming face to face with a fox. One day the Wendy’s fear was going to come and she didn’t know it. It was a nice sunny day, you could hear the birds chirping. Anyway Brad was going for a walk and all of the sudden he saw a Wendy. He looked at his stomach and it growled. “Lunch time!” he thought to himself. Brad was so hungry he could eat a…

So there have been a few events in my life that have changed my view on the world, affected my mental and emotional health, and made me rethink who I am. A lot of those revolve around how gay I am, hence my title. Of course that’s just one aspect of who I am, so not everything that’s happened to me has to do with that. A lot, but not everything. At least not completely. The summer between 8th and 9th grade, I missed my two best friends a lot. Of course I missed all my friends, but it felt…

street was home to a nice bar and was a frequent watering hole for many of the servers that worked at the hotel. The gang worked hard and they sure did drink. One of the assistants, Katie, showed a particular liking for All-in. All-in was unattached and was a popular server with many of the ladies. He grew up in that general area and was familiar with all the hot spots. After leaving the fine drinking establishment, Katie informed the group that she was so amorous that she could hardly contain…

The book begins in a slow pace. It is first introduced by John, the boy who is the main character. He describes how he feels about school, and gives a little bit of background information about himself. He is not the smart one comparison of him and Lorraine, the girl who is the second main character. Lorraine makes really good grades, and John just does not care. They both hang out together, and do normal childish things for example, prank calls, with their friends Dennis, and Norton who acted…

I hear myself huffing and puffing as Lena and I run away from the terrifying loud cops chasing after us for stealing some food. I start to slow down exhausted but what keeps me going is the terrifying look on my poor sister's face, so I have no choice but to keep going. The police are getting closer and I am thinking thank god they didn't bring the dogs. I grab Lena´s hand and I pull her into an alley that is completely dark hoping to lose the police. We lean against a wall covering our mouths…

of the work of other physicians, but feel like the treatment of cancer is more important than the work of, say, an Otorhinolaryngologist. Cancer is more likely to kill you than an inner ear infection or inflamed adenoids.” “Tell me a little bit about your Internship.” “Well, during my Senior year of High School, I had an Internship class right here at the hospital. It took us all around the hospital. I even got to see a baby being born!” “Wow,” she said. A smile was the…

During child development every child experiences encounters dissimilarly than other children. Meaning, every child was raised differently and not everyone has the same outcome from their upbringing. Sure I came from poor, emotionally unstable parents who were permissive and suffered substance abuse problems, but I achieved a lot in my short nineteen years. Yes, my parents allowed me do whatever I had in mind; Rules weren’t a real thing and I was expected of very little in the household and in…

Unlike number ten from All Diva Media’s ‘Top 10 Feminist Stereotypes’, I am not a man hater – in fact, I was the only girl allowed to play with the boys as I was related to their ‘leader’. When I was little, my cousin, who was a grade older than me, was sort of like the leader of the few boys we had our split class. I never realized that I was being treated differently from all the other girls in my class. My classmates seemed to simply accepted the fact that I was the only girl allowed to play…

Blown to Bits Chapter 4 was all about the organization of bits, and how the internet is organized. After all, there is simply so much data on the internet, one must wonder exactly how search engines such as Google can pull up websites from this virtual sea of chaos. Well, at first, the internet was mainly a repository for information. Websites were browsed in a hierarchical order, with the websites of most precedence appearing before those with less prominence, which makes a lot of sense if you…
