“Maybe all we had has always been right Think of all the love you gain when you send it over Think of all the wool I’ve spun to be here tonight” A good intelligence officer should not have any tells. They should never, under any circumstances, endanger the mission by falling for and sleeping with their partner. It was a very good thing, then, that Cassian was currently on furlough because he was failing miserably on both counts. For the first time in many years, a mission—the mission—was…
Growing up, since the age of 8, I have always wanted to be a dental hygienist. It wasn’t something I felt passionate about, but I kind of liked teeth and my mother said I should do it, so I went for it.

Being a teacher was something I always thought about, but public speaking was my greatest fear, so…

Holly Bradbury Mr. Snelgrove English 12 9/20/2015 The Trail of Transition “I, in my state of self-discovery, am fulfilled. The Trail echoes this as each footstep knocks, proclaiming ownership of my fate. The way is mine as my beliefs pave the lengths before me. They are not smooth, yet mine.” These are the words in which one could find themselves repeating as they conquer a long rigorous thru-hike over the Sierra Nevada or a pilgrimage across Vermont. Often, we find ourselves in transition. This…

But of course on the way home from school he thought to himself: Who doesn't want to explore a haunted house? So he took a little detour down Maple Street. After that day he was never seen again, and eventually everyone gave up looking. That is everyone except Sam and Thomas.
