“Can you promise me something?” Maybe it was the serious tone in his voice, or, just that particular arrangement of words, but Shawn’s question made Celia panic. “That depends…” she said with hesitance. “Promise me you’ll wipe the extra ice cream off my face before we leave.” Celia instantly relaxed and began laughing. “You know,” said Shawn, his tone heavy with sarcasm, “it’s rude to laugh at people. Especially those with disabilities.” Celia gasped dramatically. “How dare you accuse me of…

It was a busy night in New York City, many cars and people traveling through the bustling city. Sasha had just finished up a gig in a small club, before heading home for the night. Sasha knew walking home alone at night was risky, but she had no other option. Her phone had died a few hours ago and there was no way she would be able to hail a cab. So she continued on her way, anxiousness steadily rising within her. She knew this street was risky for the LGBTQ+ community, knowing many hate…

Ive just came through the door, tired from a long day of classes and work. As i'm entering i see you on the couch playing dark souls, and watching you curse at the screen makes me forget about any stress I had as i have to hold back my laughter. You didn't hear me come in, you were too focused fighting a boss. I notice that you didnt see me come in so I decide to try and scare you. I come up behind you and grab you while simultaneously yelling "SUP FUCKER". You are extremely startled you threw…

Seeing bad things happen all around to good people is truly heartbreaking. Having people lose family members, best friends, or even siblings makes people realize, not everything is your choice. People could get involved in gangs, violence, shoplifting, or even worse things that can put you at a risk,maybe even getting thrown in jail. But luckily, I learned how to make good choices and avoid these problems during G.R.E.A.T.. In G.R.E.A.T., I learned many things that can help me in life. But,…

Everything was perfect; we were on cloud 9, I had finally found someone who made me feel like I’m on top of the world… until he moved. The excitement I felt while I walked to class was unreal. I walked through the breezeway of the school and felt a slight chill from the cold cloudy day. I quickly turned into a hall and took in the warmth from the AC and found my much anticipated class, World Geography. I walked in and there he is facing the board. Slightly long blonde hair, a grey sweater that…

This song is very popular because of how age is going by and because since everyone ages it can tell people that people go through life quickly. What this song is many describing is that age and life comes and goes very quickly and very fast. How the band, Five For Fighting describes this is that it describes a person through his/her life cycle and that it starts out with he is 15 years old, then he slowly ages more and more over time. What I have noticed is that, once in awhile, he talks more…

"Senpai did notice me" You like him. No, it 's more than that - you love him. At first you just looked up to him seeing how great he is at swimming - as if he and the water is one. He 's always the fastest one from the four of them. Then you started to learn more about him - you learned how good he is at arts and that he knows how to cook. It seems he can do anything you can 't, and the next thing you know you 're falling in love with your senpai, Haruka Nanase. It 's not that you 're stalking…

“No Zayn! I saw you, get the fuck out!” I yelled at my boyfriend, we have been together for one year, Zayn Malik. We met when my brother Harry Styles brought him to the house and the rest of One Direction. Zayn and I immediately fall in love and started going out behind Harry’s back, because he is so overprotective of me. After almost two months into our relationship, Harry walked right in on us kissing and then we had to tell him everything. He wasn’t happy about that Zayn and I were dating,…

When I was in third grade my grandfather was diagnosed with stage four carcinoid cancer. Stage four essentially means that it has reached the body 's lymph nodes and thus it can infect nearly any part of the body. While this diagnosis was bad, it never hit me how bad it was until sophomore year when he appeared to have suffered from a stroke. We got lucky however and it was Bell 's Palsy, and while that was definitely better than a stroke it was still worrisome, this was the first time I…

My hands were red in the cold. It seeped over from my fingertips to my palms and then to the back of my hands. The brown color became near nonexistent. I needed to get out of the cold and home before dark. My steps were tentative. Much like a baby deer taking its first steps, I skidded across the ice and snow. Tentative movements would make me slower, but ultimately safe. I just needed to get home by seven and I would be safe. I wouldn 't say I was superstitious, but nana 's old tales of the…
