Jules had expected it to be burning hot, but in the starry night, it was actually quite chilly. Ominous sounds came from every nook and cranny, making her worry grow…

this moment in the play where a boy in school decides to call a girl, and when he gets home he says ill call her now, but when he gets to it he goes well maybe I’ll just call her at six that seems like a good time to call. But when six comes around he goes nah eight is a better time to call, no wait nine is, so by the time nine comes around he thinks to himself that tomorrow is actually the day to call the girl.

The period of adolescence is the time where such thoughts would be contemplated. Twain was trying to portray an individual who confronts internal conflicts on doing what is…

thought that counts right? After hitting snooze about 5 times, I finally wake up around 7 everyday. I usually end up late to work and school but I like to think of it as my signature. I always skip breakfast, I'll have a coffee but I don't think that counts. I eat sparsely throughout the day because I'm so occupied with school, not to mention dealing with the stress doesn't help. I've never been the kind of person to work around a schedule so that can make it hard to operate correctly on a daily…

Super Bowl Four games, four wins, one turnover for Andy Dalton. The Bengals have dominated through their first four games. Yesterday, Andy Dalton played another terrific game. He finished with 321 passing yards and one touchdown, but what really sticks out to me, is the fact that Dalton still has only turned the ball over once this season.

Moments later there was a crash and thud of bombs, joined by the chatter of machinegun fire. Up ahead a pall of black smoke started to rise slowly into the air, accompanied by the drone of retreating bombers. The crush of refugees…
