In 2008, my mom took me to my older sister Hannah’s swim tryout. I was standing around on the deck, waiting for her to finish, when a man named Joe Cabel walked up to me and told me that I should try out, because my lengthy legs would make me fast. Cabel has been known to stretch the truth a little bit, and 8 1/2 years later, I’m not much faster. But I’ve definitely learned a lot of things, mostly from my high school seasons. Freshman year, I learned to follow and respect the seniors, and as I…
All they ever did was whisper; the cruel words cunningly sharpened into daggers, intent on causing him pain and anguish, all because of his uncontrollable circumstances. His name was Jacobi, and his story is forever imprinted in my character. Everyone believed he was somehow inferior to them because of the way he smelled or because of the tattered clothes in which he dressed, and so they judged him without ever truly knowing him. I remember trying to advise him not to fire back at their cunning…
I was over ecstatic when Fernando, (also known as Fernie) my best guy friend asked me to go on a walking adventure with him in our hometown of Kelseyville, California. We started off the day by walking in the forest alongside of Kelsey Creek. This forest has a really big meaning to Fernie and I, because we both love nature in every aspect and these walking adventures are not uncommon to us. Starting on the path we both got lost in our own thoughts, I got distracted by looking above me at the the…
Jeremy, Well I had a great time, they are a great gang...and NEVER boring. I really can't wait for you to meet them all. Heather said It was great to have me back, I told her I was the missing piece (which I was). Heather Johnna and I are the 3 of this generation. Brenda, Mike and Connie, JR didn't have any kids so the "sisters" were all 4 our mothers. Brenda was the cool one, Connie the loving one that would give or do anything with us, my mom was the working hectic one, and Lavania was…
I have noticed that my masters, Lady Macbeth and Macbeth, have been acting strange lately. It seems as if every day I see them franticly discussing something away from others. Macbeth hasn’t been acting like his usual self and he seems to be angry and nervous. However, I think it might just be a phase that the couple needs to work out. I shouldn’t be too consumed with this as I need to finish setting up for the big event. Oh dear Lord! You would never believe what I just saw with my own eyes.…
All I knew about me was fact that I was demigod. My mother died whet I have just been born, she was killed by this Jackson. He thought that I was his enemy. I was raised by Tartarus him self.

One day I was training fighting with monster when my father came. 'Rogue' he said 'I need to talk with you'.…
“I swear I am adopted” I said to my friend Tess, laughing, almost spilling my orange juice. “Baliegh you are not adopted oh my gosh we have been over this”. Tess couldn’t stop laughing. This is a joke me and Tess have joked about since we were little. I have always said I was adopted because if you look at me and compare my looks to my parents and brother, we look nothing alike. I have dark brown hair, bright green eyes, and very pale skin. Both my parents and my brother have bleach blonde hair,…
I’m sitting with you at school, and it’s lunchtime. I finish eating, I turn to you, and you have your head between your knees. You say that you’re feeling sick. You try to make it to the nurse’s office, but, too late. I see you lying on the ground, pale, motionless, and I immediately yell for help. I can feel panic rising in my chest, cutting me off from the world, disorienting me, while you’re just lying there. The medics arrive. My whole body shakes the entire time. I’ve never felt so helpless…
People call me the “special one” almost like God. They treated me all superior and spoiled me like no tomorrow, I HATED IT. All I ever wanted to have is a normal life, with normal friends, normal problems. But my selfish dream was soon drifted away and replaced with a different one when the war broke out of course. That is when everything went perfect, well for me of course. “I heard she was going to get mini sandwiches today” “Oh! We should get some too!” “Yeah!” Ugh. The girls…
Along the snow packed road of life, many life changing obstacles and crossroads lie ahead. A little girl named Alma pranced along its snow patched path of life. The day was wonderful, with fluffy snow on the ground and a beautiful sun hanging down from the sky like a shiny ornament on a Christmas tree. As Alma scampered around in her rose red coat and sky blue scarf, she came along a dark, mysterious store. The dark mysterious store had extremely peculiar storefront. It had a large gaping…
