Our world is plagued. Never thought that things would end up this way. Without warning nations fell‚ bodies stacked‚ and there’s very few survivors left. At least that’s what I think... They said this would be for the greater good‚ but seems like the total opposite. “This is a new era in warfare!”‚ “World peace at last!”‚ their voices scream in my head. To me‚ it’s all bullcrap. Look at where it got us. No world peace. No safe haven. I look and see emptiness.The city is empty‚ quiet‚ and lifeless

Many times‚ my family can be hard to get along with‚ constantly teasing and humiliating not just me‚ but each other. We are much like any other family... except we’re Mexican. We have uncles‚ cousins‚ relatives we don’t even know of; we call each other weird names like Pollo‚ Prieto‚ and Gordo; but mainly‚ we always find a reason to get drunk. Whether it be for a baptism‚ a wedding‚ a child’s birthday‚ parties don’t end until three in the morning. When my family gets together‚ either it ends either

A One-of-a-Kind Destination to Call Home There is something to be said for living in a tropical paradise.

I crouch alongside the Pennsylvania State House silently. I peek out from the edge towards the front door. Two guards stand on each side engaging in small talk. With a groan‚ I slump back against the building. How am I supposed to get in? I lean my head against the wall and look up toward the sky. The window directly above me suddenly opens and I freeze in fear. “Why are you opening that window? It’s out in the back hall!” “Well‚ I thought we could leave the door open and have a nice breeze flow

When you look out all you see is colorful tubes all lined up next to each other and sometimes a football being passed back and forth between people who just met. We normally swim for a couple
