Oh gosh a new school‚ a new year. I never liked this moving back and forth thing every time Dad gets a new job. There is no point in making friends‚ but this year will be different I thought‚ as I waited for the bus to arrive. I started to see the ugly mustard yellow bus approach me. As the door to the bus opened‚ the smell of damp‚ wet towels that have been sitting in a pile for weeks on end ‚and overly sweet perfume punched me in the face. “Maby this year won’t be so different after all‚” I thought

Late Autumn‚ 1942 Today is one of those unusually quiet evenings‚ and sometimes‚ it’s so quiet it becomes frightening. It reminds me of a storm. At first‚ it sneaks up on you quietly‚ then the storm intensifies‚ rushing through cities‚ towns‚ or whatever is in its path‚ leaving behind devastation and desolation. That sense of desolation is what I fear the most‚ and that’s what it feels like now. There have been no loud roars of planes overhead or any explosions for over a month. But I don’t mind

Room 101 As he sat stiff backed and upright in the hard wooden chair‚ Jotham looked around anxiously. He could only see three of the walls‚ and the ceiling‚ if he craned his neck upwards‚ but that was enough to make him very uneasy indeed. They were grey and bare - not silver grey‚ but a horrible murky grey‚ that made it seem like everything was closing in on him. The room was rectangular; not at all wide; there was perhaps a metre between him and the nearer two walls‚ but it was extremely lengthy;

It would be cliche to say that Faust changed who I was‚ but I feel without it‚ my life would’ve taken a very different and darker path. The world of surrealism in art took me to places that did not exist in this world‚ which in turn‚ made me more aware of all things that did exist in this

this was pleasant enough weather given that this was mid April. For the time of year almost perfect conditions for a family visit to this amazingly high-rated theme park. The TV advertisements promised a perfect day out and thrills galore. The whole place looked so spectacular in the advertisements‚ we just could not resist a visit. We had decided to take a coach from central Paris. The coach was huge‚ it held a good number of people but still plenty of space to spread out . Vacant seats were dotted

I rose awake out of a deep period of unconsciousness. Rising to my feet‚ my inanimate body collapsed due to the burdensome shackles bound to my ankles and wrists. The deafening sound of applause and caterwaul superior to my head became louder as my eyes came to. I examined my surroundings trying to envision what or to that matter who brought me to this scummy cell beneath the ground. Prior to the night before‚ I can only commemorate where I was and who I was with for only a short while. After that

Toms mother would grow these plants by the dozen‚ and‚ once a month‚ after harvest week‚ she would take all the plants away‚ replacing them with seemingly
