Never Again

It was September 26, 2014, the night of the biggest high school football game in Albany, GA between Westover and Monroe. During my biology lecture class, my friend and I contemplated driving home for the game. I had not seen my sister cheer all last semester. I decided this would be the perfect time to surprise her. High school rivalry games are always great opportunities for returning alumni to meet up with old friends and flaunt themselves, usually in the latest styles, to make an impression…

Her mind wanders as she drags her pudgy form across the hatched navy carpeting, but her eyes remain fixed on the girl perched on the edge of the threadbare sofa, feet dangling within inches of the floor. And when the girl plants herself firmly on the ground and strides down the hallway in the opposite direction, the toddler’s innocent face fills with admiration. But her own feet quiver beneath the weight of her infantile body, rendering her incapable of standing on her own; she looks up to her…

breath. She hit him again. "Ow! Do you want a ride home or not?" She lowered her fist. "Yeah," Marcy sighed, "man I can 't wait till get my own car." "Until then, your stuck with me," he swung his arm lazily around her shoulders. Marcy pulled a face that caused her pretty face look of one of an ogre. She finally noticed me and dashed over, jumping up and clinging to me. Pushing her off, she landed exactly where what started this whole mess: the floor. Alex groaned, "Not again." Our friend…

could not contain Ponithea. When she was sixteen, her parents had finally had enough. Her father, the ruling monarch, banished her to the island of Erimos. She was given a fortnight to pack her things, say goodbye to her family, and leave. “I shall never forget you, my child.” “Neither will I, mother.” “Here, take this, hopefully this will help you until I can save you.” Ponithea’s mother pulled out a small burlap bag. It jangled as it was set in…

Korbyn was walking around the classroom as usual, despite of the rules during the music lessons. He was given two (2) strikes already by not following directions and not participating. He got up from his chair, walked around and stopped right behind me. Then he shaped his hand cylindrical, and started moving it back and forth in front of his pants. Several students witnessed what Korbyn did, and raised their hands to let me know what they saw. I caught what he was doing with the corner of my…

Living in complete freedom is the philosophy that is the foundation of anarchism. The rediscovering of the anarchist philosophy inundated the minds of British youth in the 1970s who felt that the British government was suppressing thier freedom with frivolous laws. There are several schools of anarchism such as anarchist-communism, collectivist anarchism, social anarchism, individualist anarchism, and mutualism, which all influenced the explosion of the punk rock movement.

it to be a hobby or career. Hearing her phenomenal voice and learning that she had not trained since birth made theater seem like an attainable goal versus an object of entertainment and a far off dream. Without talking to Michele McConnell, I may never have gained the confidence to get involved in my high school’s theater program. I feel that these shows have changed me as a person, making me set higher goals instead of settling; additionally, theater currently means for me a way to express…
