Sitting Bull

It was his first day of school, he texted me through out the day, basically saying she was annoying and such a goody two shoes, in which she was. He said how her sister Bianca was all over him and over Xavier too. So he texted me the address of the cabin, and I went for a drive with a shotgun in the backseat of my Tahoe. Is it the right thing to do? Maybe not. Am I going to scare the living shit out of some kids? Yes I am. “Xavier, what if she shows up with Damon, you know how bad this can…

It’s September 18th, 2016, and my nana and I are both sitting on my bed in which the sheets were still removed from getting washed earlier that day. She has short hair as dark as chocolate, and brown, loving eyes with circular gold frames around them that watched me as I prepared my questions. She had her signature coral lipstick on that she always wore so well. It’s an overcast, yet mildly warm day with the kind of clouds that are a smokey gray with a dash of sunlight emerging from behind them.…

A loud click was heard from the ceiling of a filled classroom, the echo of the microphone from the office announced static-filled speech. “Logan Hatchback to the office please. Logan Hatchback to the office.” Suddenly, a tall behemoth of a man stood from the back of the classroom, his seat singled out of the rows and immaturely drawn on. He stood around 6’1 and had dark clothing on, dirty ripped jeans and a black hoodie, his long pitch black hair covering the left part of his face out of…

It's the end of a football game at George Gattas Memorial Stadium, and many students are going straight for a traditional post game dinner, pizza. Prospect Business Education teacher, Lance Burmeister knows that feeling well. He could have never worked for Prospect and probably would've given the students their pizza. Business Teacher,is Burmeister's current title here at Prospect. However, he could have easily spent his career applying cheese and pepperoni to dough. Being a pizza man was…

“Adeline come over here” said McCain. Adeline was a close friend to McCain. He knew that Adeline was quiet and shy not wanting to protest and march for segregation. “What?” said Adeline as she came over to him in the dorm foyer. “We are going to do a lunch counter sit in and we are trying to get more people to come.” said McCain. Adeline was unsure if she wanted to go or not because of the consequences. “I don’t think I am going to go, you could go to jail for doing that.” Said Adeline. As…

office feature available. Ergonomics are also incorporated in desks, filing cabinets, phones etc. All of those items combined will help you, but you still have to play a part in the health of your body which includes sitting straight, exercise, and stretch. Remain vigilante when sitting and aware of your surroundings and how your body is reacting to certain situations. Pain is an indication that something isn’t quite right, so pay attention and adjust accordingly. Choosing the Right…

Taking Good Action in Different Societies Obviously, I am more of a Chinese than an American, but since I spent most of my past five years in a high school in Alabama, I understand a lot more about Alabaman society than about Chinese society. Therefore, it is no surprise that every time, when I return to Shenzhen, China, for summer holiday, I will be surprised by almost everything. I believe this is due to both the rapid development of this young city and of myself toward maturity, which enables…

I read Salvation by Langston Hughes. When Langston wrote this article he was telling a story about a time in his life when he felt terrible about himself and started to question his religious beliefs. In Salvation Langston is under the impression that you must actually see God to come to him. There are many different beliefs and practices that revolve around God yet many people are still unsure about their religious Identity. Similar to Langston’s confusion about his faith, I was once confused…

up the stairs in the commons, a feeling of anxiety grew stronger for some reason. I opened Mr. Puma’s classroom door, entering the room for the first time in my life. There, in the upper right corner of the room from the door’s view, was Mr. Puma, sitting at a desk with his head facing papers. As I walked, it was almost as if I was forcing myself to keep moving, as I figured I was already this far. Passing desks and people, I heard mumbles and conversations I couldn’t quite make out. Stepping up…
