The Prince

It is with deep regret and a very heavy heart that I write you. The lady you knew as Melinda Jenning passed away September 20. She was surrounded by her family and was not in pain. I promised Mel that I would make contact with you and am doing this against my better judgment. I am sorry for not passing this news on sooner but with the funeral and what we have been through in the last 18 months, you were not at the top of my list. Melinda and I had our differences and more than a few…

It all started after school when I got home my mom and I started to go to the Taekwondo studio, when I got there I had to change into my clothes and get my belt on so when testing began I can show that I can tie a belt right. Then all the people that were in my class started to show up and get dressed and I was so excited to finally get my 3rd degree black belt. After everyone got there we all had to train until the test began. So it was 5:00 when the test began and we all trained for an hour…

Man,I hate white! Normally I'm fine with it, but today was not a normal day. I had been staring at a blank white screen FOREVER! When it got to the point I could no longer see any thing but white is when I knew I had a problem. I had to snap out of what ever trance I was in and start writing. If I didn't get out soon I'd be stuck with nothing to do but slowly go out of my mind. I looked out the window my vision still not returning and only white. This is it. I thought, I am going to go…

I remember like it was yesterday, I got a Facebook message from my cousin that lives in Mexico. He asked if I recently have talked to his sister, I replied saying No, why? He said that Samantha has been missing for two days now and she’s not like that. Weeks pass and my aunts and cousins haven’t heard from her yet. The police officer was notified about my cousin Samantha and they been searching for her also. The day that my cousin was missing, she was hanging out with a boy-friend. Everyone in…

I think Velazquez was trying to portray a beautiful young girl and her hardworking maids. In the picture Velazquez was trying to portray royalty at it’s finest. A king who would only settle for the best for his daughter. She is waited on hand and foot by her hardworking maids and caretakers. This painting also shows how Velazquez wanted to emphasize how fragile this young girl was. This painting seemed to scream vulnerability. This girl looks no older than eight years old and looks like she…

The man saw the princess gesture to the right. He walked over with such confidence, knowing that the princess wouldn’t lead him to die. He reached out his hand ready to open the heavy door, he glanced back at the princess with thanks in his eyes. But when he opened the door, the thanks in his eyes turned to confusion as the room was empty. The king being so disappointed in the turnout of the trial, slammed his angry fists on the bar in front of their seats shaking everything. His daughter…
