Entering a large venue‚ walking on what seemed to be a mile long stage‚ knowing that all eyes are staring at me. Stage lights flood the stage‚ music begins. Being backstage‚ anxious to get on stage and perform. This is what happened on my first Nutcracker show in the Party Scene. It was a cherished and unforgettable moment and a thrilling feeling I will never forget. In those minutes‚ I knew dancing was an enjoyment for me. It was a day in December‚ my friends and I were walking up to the auditorium

My bare feet chafe against the rough plastic of my bike pedals. I pedal as fast as I can‚ but it’s still not fast enough. A colossal headwind slows me down‚ making me work twice as hard to go half as fast. I need to get to the beach before dark‚ and I can already see the sun setting through the careening trees. To my relief‚ the sharp smell of salt and decomposing seaweed soon fills my nostrils. Despite everything‚ I manage to smile at the thought of all the euphoric memories I associate with the

I am surrounded by pink and orange colors layered with a slightly hazy film. Small‚ wet droplets hit the side of my face. The gritty feeling in between my toes is chilling but yet very pleasing. A few strands of my blonde hair brush across my face caused by the wind whistling through the fishy tasting air. I can smell the saltiness lurking above the water as the clear liquid creeps closer to my buried toes. The sound of the gentle crashes comes from in front of me and beyond under the pink and orange

One hot‚ humid‚ August morning around seven a.m.‚ the smell of the lake water had already filled my nostrils. The temperature was already in the eighties and my lip had developed a fine sweat mustache. I knew it was going to be a hot day. We had arrived at the landing site fifteen minutes early; this allowed me time to get my gear organized and wonder the quiet landing site. As I stepped out of the truck‚ the door squeaked open. I gave it a heavy‚ handed push to close‚ as it was old and didn’t always

For the first time‚ I struggled with my buoyancy; I don’t know how fast I sank‚ but it was more than one foot per second. The pressure was intense. I needed to equalize; I pushed the air connector on BC-jacket to get a shot from the tank to counteract my sinking‚ letting the air out slowly to descend at a proper rate. I moved one step up‚ two steps down until I touched the ocean floor. The echoed sound of my breathing jolted out of sync with my movements. A thermocline from above and below traveled

The once sunny day of the beach was tainted with a storm brewing above. As everyone scattered off the beach‚ they quickly grabbed their possessions as rain fell down upon them. The music playing form the cafes and rides suddenly come to a stop as their customers quickly disappear. The once happy sound of laughter was silent as the grave. A dark shadow stretches its arms form over the ocean once more and the once mighty sun is blotted out. Even the laughing seagull is nowhere to be found for they

The cold winter snow soared through the night‚ high in the atmosphere‚ blanketing the dead forest of gray bark and howling wolves. Among the trudging pack‚ a blizzard was set and seen upon their sights as they prepared for the worst of the weather. White clouds escaped their panting mouths‚ the creatures headed straight into the calling moans of the night‚ where the dark sky was overtaken by the blank aura the zipping white speckles gave off. When the blizzard had passed‚ the wolves slept in piles

The Pack I looked around me‚ taking in the inky blackness of my surroundings‚ the scent of my brothers‚ sisters‚ and mother before I feel the warm‚ soft touch of my mother’s’ tongue cleansing me. I whine‚ hungrily‚ and start to look for an open teat in which to get food from. I finally found one and begin sucking desperately before one of my siblings can take it‚ and sigh at the taste of the milk. I feel the warmth that is my mother and siblings around me and fall asleep‚ thinking that it would

Sutton was didn’t play by the rules‚ she made her own. When being the princess of the small‚ rainy town of Dawn’s Creek‚ that was just how she grew up. She wasn’t nice‚ she wasn’t caring‚ but she sure does love a challenge. Friday night at around 6 o’clock‚ when the ground was wet and the air was full of moisture but nothing fell from the sky was when she first heard the sound. The sound was like when the sun breaks the the fluffy grey clouds and it brings light even on the darkest of days. The

I knew he was leaving. I could see the anxious anticipation in my mothers body language in the days before. I knew he was leaving. I coud hear him still rummaging around in the closet‚ carefully selecting the uniforms that he would wear when he was gone. I felt a slight pain in my chest knowing that I would now become the man of the house once again. I saw him lay his duffel bag along with his carry on in the corner of the living room that he and I had painted the month before. I glanced up to the
