I’m so sick of sitting in my bubblegum-butt colored living room. It seemed like an awesome decision at the time to paint the hideously textured box I live in for the sake of my “totally unique blogging atmosphere.” Jokes, Melanie, you got jokes. It was a great idea at least until I became a super uninspired shut in, who’s seen two Christmas, and three Halloween specials of The Office in the same week. I need to get out of here. The smell of warm vanilla has left me completely “nose blind,” as…
After school, I entered the living room startled to see my mother seated on the couch reading an article on her tablet. She glanced up at me, turning up her nose. "What are you doing home so early, I thought you were working today?" I sighed. “I decided to take the day off to spend some time with you before you graduate” She said. As I stood there her eyes narrowed. “What were you thinking stepping outside like that?" Her red painted lips pursed as she eyed me. "Would you rather I went…
ambulance to have him assessed. Next, beeper stated to inform him that staff is concerned about what they are observing and that they want to make sure he is okay. After hanging up with Beeper, staff instructed JB to call 911. Staff TM went to RT’s room and asked him if he was feeling okay, he stated yeah. Staff let him know what they have observed and that they are concerned about his health and they want to make sure that he is okay. Staff explained that they called an ambulance to check on…
Marley floor has nearly killed me, but it’s also shown me who my family is. It’s an awful material that requires a lot of time and work to be put down smooth and look nice. It’s some sort of vinyl that comes on PVC pipes, rolled up. Taping it down is an unbearably long and grueling process. One particularly hot Wednesday night, I was moving rolls of flooring into the auditorium from the lobby. Andy and I rolled up the flooring, the stubborn plasticky devil. Laszlo, one of the most badass people…
One day there was a girl, her name was Sam. She was your average girl. She was shy but knew how to make someone laugh. She wouldn't really open up to you unless she was comfortable. Public speaking was one thing she could not do. It was her biggest fear and she has avoided it for years. She is in the 10th grade and her fear started 6th grade year when she had a embarrassing experience. She had to go up and present a science project. While she was talking about her project she got sick.…
The rest of the day had passed by in a blur, between packing and getting everything ready to go, she was exhausted when she finally crawled into bed around one in the morning. She had barely heard the pounding on her door. Penny grabbed her bathroom and opened the door. The sight of Cole standing there, looking devilishly handsome startled her. What time was it? Penny wondered. She knew she had over slept, vaguely remembering him saying he would pick her up at six A.M. “I’m sorry Cole, I…

Today was dragging on more than usual. I just wanted to leave school and go pick up Ramona. As of today we’ve been dating for a year and I knew I’d never been happier. I just hated the fact that I can’t tell my mom. I love my mom to death but she is so homophobic I knew if I told her that I’m dating a girl she might never talk to me again. I let out an exasperated sigh, making the teacher glare at me, then the final bell finally rings. I waste no time sprinting to my car and going to get…
that houses 10% of MIT students living on campus. Holl designed the building to stick out amongst the very progressive and modern architecture on MIT’s campus. His concept of “Porosity” is used to infuse the city and campus together. Along with the rooms, there are many amenities: movie theater, dining hall, night café, and a recreational facility. The sponge concept is used to have openings for outdoor use and entrances as well as separating the building into “houses”. The openings also allow…
To enter, you have to pass a row of ambulances that are lined up in the front. The automatic door, that is wide enough to fit a car, opens to welcome its guests with a perfumed scent. Many guests attend with their families and some guests even attend with literal broken hearts, in an attempt to repair them. Walking through the corridors, you start to feel a headache from the lights above you that make the corridor too bright for your eyes. The corridor, filled with stale air, has an undertone…
