It took me 6 years to decide what school I would go to. Which friends I would leave. And which colors suited me most. I had always thought I would be a Hornet. All my friends were going there, so why wouldn’t I. But every time I thought about it, it didn’t seem right. The other school intrigued me. It called me. I always found an excuse to keep it on my mind. But when somebody were to ask me ...

Change.

A strange thing, isn't it?

It's something I hate, yet want.

Change could be changing your style, hair, interests, or room.

It could be a job, school, friends, or family.

It's something that could be huge to one person, and small to the next.

It’s something I crave, yet am terrified of.

What if it’s not what I want?

What if it’s a death? A loss? A goodbye?

It could be something won...

I can’t do this right now. I can’t look into his deep green eyes. I can’t look at his perfectly curled hair. I can’t look at his beautiful complexion. I can’t.

I’ve been dating Austin for the past ten months. I know I should have ended this sooner, but I didn’t have enough guts to break his heart. He wasn’t good for me. Every flaw that’s within me came flooding out when I was with him. He brough...

It was about time for a change. For quite a while I’ve been annoyed with how my days are going. Struggeling to get out of bed in the morning and staying up too late in the evenings. But not anymore. I’ll set a few alarm clocks for tomorrow morning and get up immediately when they go off. No matter how tired I feel, I decide now that I’ will get up. I don’t know how big this change exactly is, but ...

Today is the day I change. I'm so excited. I'm getting my hair cut! I'm so excited! I'm sorry, I know I'm saying it again but I am! For the first time in my life I am going to look like myself. I will have hair that sticks up in all directions and doesn't look like a girl's. It's going to be amazing! I want to look like you can't tell my gender. I want people to be so confused they come up to me a...

My eyes narrowed, locked onto the witch in front of me. She held the runic dagger between us, its runic symbols glowing faintly in the dim room, it’s blade mirroring my reflection. To put it kindly, I looked like hell. The bags under my eyes had deepened, and my untrimmed beard and dirt streaked face were a reminder of how consuming the past few nights had taken its toll on me.

All the pain, the...

"Matthew!" squeals Blair.

He tickles her side for a quick moment, just so he can see the joy in her face. He remembers the present, and swiftly pulls it out of his bag.

"What's that?" Blair questions.

"Uhh War Heads I think. I thought we could try them."

"War Heads?" she looks at the bag, uncertain of the candy.

"Just try one. For me?" he pouts.

A slow smile spreads across her face and she g...

In the palm of your hands

Sit the matter of destruction

Or the eternal sovereignty of another’s

In your lips throw the bricks or build the towers newly recovered.

Lies within my soul,the hidden gold

What good will I be?

If I destroy myself through lack of my belief....

I had cried for weeks and weeks about losing Emma. She was such a great companion and I loved her to pieces. But I was lonely now. I lived by myself and now felt like I had no protection or friendship left in my home.

So I did get another dog. A nine week old golden retriever puppy named Laney. She is the sweetest thing ever. And while it doesn’t fill the whole Emma left, it deserves makes it a li...
