told my parents I didn 't know how to read. “It’s not your fault, honey, they just didn 't know how to help you,” my mother said to me gently, running her fingers tenderly through my hair. My father, on the other hand, relayed an angry drunken lecture to me almost every night about how that crappy school stole all of his money.

Realising the dilemma I had to alter the design so that the basket wouldn't be a complete fail and crumble apart when carry it. So what I had to make a decision on was whether or not to get rid of the monsters legs, in the end…

From the outer appearance of the skin you can infer if anything is wrong or may be going wrong inside the body. Diet is a factor for how how skin can appear, knowing this I want to find out if a specific diet could possibly help clear my skin.

“Ray-Ray! Watch where you are going!” yelled Kalia, the popular, obnoxious girl who despised me with every part of her nonexistent soul. I continued walking, slipping my earbuds into my ears in order to hinder the sound of her constant tremors.The yells behind me intensified and I began to run, apart from my lack of physical endurance or stamina.I was the victim of their constant harassment, and my mind could not help wonder why.
