Shauna avoided Cort on Friday when she spent the day shopping with her mother. She avoided him on Saturday when the McCabe family got together to tromp through the woods in search of the perfect Christmas trees. Sunday was a different story. "Hello‚ Shauna‚ nice to see you again‚" Cort said when he walked into the parlor where Shauna was expertly weaving a burgundy and gold ribbon through the branches of the twelve-foot Frasier fir Susan had chosen. "Mr. Mackenzie‚" Shauna answered‚ keeping her

Hot. Humid. In other words‚ the usual New Orleans summertime day. Now all the local media were buzzing with the new Katrina tracking information. Many people were going about their usual Saturday routines. Some were still oblivious to what was happening. Greg had the kids. I got up‚ cleaned the house‚ and washed all the clothes‚ so if we left (I hadn’t decided for sure yet)‚ I wouldn’t have to do it when we returned. I filled up at a nearby gas station and went shopping. There was an eerie feeling

“3...2...1...Snow Fight!” I believe in snow. The small flakes of decorative ice that fall from as big grey sky. As they float down‚ it makes the wheels in my brain turn. As they turn‚ it brings back memories of running and playing in the snow and sledding down a hill that goes on forever. Even the small memories of laughter and cold runny noses. The best memories are after the fun‚ with hot chocolate and mini marshmallows that bob around in the dark liquid. The warm mug thaws my hands as I sit

Satou here. As a child‚ I was very fascinated by a dungeon game in my father’s collection‚ which was probably the reason I went into the game industry. I’ll never forget the triumph I felt when I obtained a super-rare sword in that game. I check the Map‚ which merely displays “Demon’s Dungeon: Lowest Floor”‚ but does not reveal the paths. ...Knew it wouldn’t be that easy. Anyway‚ for City Adventure to suddenly turn into Dungeon Attack‚ if this were a tabletop RPG‚ I should be worrying about the

Name:Brycen MadrilFootball Fracture Fiasko My dad drove me to the football field in a black chevy‚ but I came home with some p-a-i-n-e!! It was about 6 months ago. I was so excited it was Saturday. I had a bright melting hot football game at 2:30. If you have ever play football right when you step out of the car you smell the fresh cut grass. It was at the best field to play at. The 1 and 2 wear quarter was going excellent . I had like 5 touchdowns and rushed for about 130 yards in that

River Street‚ where I once lived‚ and I remember the last time I looked back to see what the flood of Augusta‚ Kentucky did to my beloved neighborhood. The Flood of Augusta‚ Kentucky came roaring down in my neighborhood‚ River Street. The flood destroyed everything in its path and the next stop on its journey of destruction was my hometown‚ River Street. I still remember the sadness of leaving before the flood‚ but what I didn’t know was the heartache to come when I returned to River Street. Gazing

I was anchored. My boat rocked slightly from side to side‚ the waves shifted‚ but my feet were firm with my anchor rigidly planted in the ocean floor. I had discovered who I was‚ and it was exactly who I aspired to be: a girl with authority and the title to prove it. I was one of three freshman representatives of the Student Board‚ the prestigious and sought-after body of student government. The entire year I held onto that identity and knew it was only a matter of time before my incumbency kicked

Today was a ruff day for me and Elizia! Before I met up with her I had to take care of Elly. I felt as tired as a marathon runner. These days were hard because the fever was still going on and there was no food left. But the worse thing was that I couldn’t find mama. It killed me inside to think that she was dead. Anyways Elizia and I had been taking care of a lot of people lately. It was insane to see how many people were affected by this disease. This fever was an intruder coming into the city

Age 9. Ahhh... The last single-digit age. The lovely age of 9 symbolizes the end of the young girl’s childhood. It is when a young girl quickly learns to become a young lady. She will sit a little straighter‚ study a little harder‚ and pray a little louder. Age 9. It is a time where she is given more seemingly minor responsibilities: more things to clean‚ more homework to do‚ more laundry to fold. No kid likes that‚ but "big girls" don’t cry. Instead‚ they tie their hair out of their faces
