Float on With the wind calm and the lake reminding me of glass, I cast out, hoping for once I would catch something that was a little more marvelous than a bloody catfish. I had the sun shining down on me, allowing my reflection to be seen in the water. The day was absolutely stunning, with the sun beating down on me sitting on that dock. The smell of gasoline from the boats and the sound of geese and ducks all around. Seeing the clear water glisten and the movement of the fish beneath me made…

There are many films out there in the world of cinema where the audience has only seen the film from one angle. It is like going to the beach and all you can see is the surface of the ocean when there is so much more than just the surface. Film writers and directors want the audience to dig deeper and watch the film from multiple angles and different perspectives. Many films aim at a truth that they are trying to portray to the audience. The truth doesn’t necessarily have to be presented…

Lucas sunbathed on the balcony of his two-story house in Eastern Florida. The sun beat down on the ever-growing population of the town. The fact that it was summer meant that it was already hot. That temperature was driven up by Global Warming and what day it was- The Summer Solstice. Normally, Lucas would only go outside today for a few minutes, and following schedule, he had been inside for the rest of the day except for now. The stark white balcony was in deep contrast with the rest of…

Life is like a beach. Some stay on the shore, staying in their comfort, scared of the unknown. Some jump right into the water the unknown, craving a thrill or a challenge. I have always and will always strive to jump into the water. Although it so easy to stay on the shore and feel safe, jumping into the water and succeeding in the unknown is a more fulfilling path. The thought of failing may scare some and push them away from the water, but failing gets you one step closer to success. Leaning…

brother right now…you can be my right hand once I am the head of the family,” said Thomas. Then, I grabbed his arm quickly and threw him on the ground. Luke got up quickly and then shot Thomas. Luke then asked me to take him to the beach by the piers. As we walked on the beach, I took him there, and then he sat down, and he tried to ease his pain by drinking the booze from the warehouse. Now was the moment I could achieve my revenge. I took my gun out quickly, and aimed it at…

The smell of a salty breeze and the feeling of soft sand brings back a great memory. This is the first trip that I’ve taken to Florida. It is also the the furthest I’ve been out of the state of Indiana and the longest road trip I’ve taken. It was a car ride that lasted over a day and I went with my friend, Olivia, and her mother, grandfather, and both of her brothers Ben and Trevor and their families. While there we went in the ocean and pools many times. We went to shopping areas and…

to be the time you get to relax and get away from everything. I, on the other hand, wasn’t able to do so. This past summer my family decided to go to the beach, as all families probably do. It’s just that it happened to be during the time that the beach wasn’t the best place to be at due to the stormy weather.
