Top ten most beautiful US States (in your opinion)? Really tough call because each and every state is beautiful in its own way and also every state has parts that are somewhat undesirable. However these ten stick out in my mind as having the best scenery and landscape. My top 10: 1. California: it has everything, beautiful coastline, gorgeous forests and desert with the countryside in the middle to boot. 2. Vermont: You can see and feel all four seasons here and unlike in most states they are all pleasant and beautiful. 3. Hawaii: it's the biggest tourist attraction for a reason! 4. Idaho: Usually doesn't stick out as being beautiful to most people but if you've ever been to the mountains of Oregon, California or Washington, Idaho's scenery is just as good, maybe even better. 5. Florida: Amazing beaches. Lots of sunshine. Nice weather. Loads of greenery. 6. Alaska: Unlike any other state. The most dramatic landscape in the country. 7. Georgia: Trees draped in Spanish moss. Nice small coastline. Hotlanta. 8. Kentucky: Green rolling hills. Horses. Need I say more? 9. Oregon: Portland! Beautiful Willamette Valley and mountain range. 10. Michigan: The Great Lake State. Beautiful winters. other beautiful states: NH, NC, TN, WV, AZ, NY and many many more

Does the Bible try to explain God's intense love for barren landscapes, sand, and desert climates? The top ten most beautiful places on earth are as follows: 1. Grand Canyon, Arizona 2. Poipu Beach, Kauai, Hawaii 3. Ninh Van Bay, Nha Trang, Vietnam 4. Arches National Park, Utah 5. Blue Mountain Peak, Jamaica 6. Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania 7. Mount Fuji, Japan 8. The Florida Keys 9. Napa Valley, California 10. El Yunque Rainforest, Puerto Rico Yet our omniscient and omnipotent God chose to plant his Garden of Eden in the middle of the Iraqi desert, a harsh environment with little rainfall and extreme temperatures. What exactly was He thinking?????
What does it take for a girl to feel as beautiful as she is? My girlfriend is the most beautiful and perfect woman out there, I never loose sight of how lucky I am to have her. We've been together for 9 months and and during that whole time-when we're together- I don't think I've gone anymore than an hour without telling her how perfect she is. And not because I feel I should but because I literally can't help it, she's that amazing. Nether the less, she still thinks the exact opposite of herself as what I think of her. I think she's perfect, her body drives me crazy... She thinks she's fat. I think she's got the most beautiful face ever, I tell her this, and without fail she has to find something about it (be it true or not) to prove me otherwise. She can't take a compliment, everytime I pay her one it's like she switches off, and she just comes back at me in some stupid voice "no Im not" it's like she's avoiding the subject, that she feels just because she's a girl she doesn't deserve to feel good about herself! It's got the point where she won't tell me if she feels fat because she knows that I get frustrated in trying to tell her otherwise. And it is frustrating, when you've been with a girl for 9 months, you've done nothing but show her how asstoundingly drop dead gorgeous she is and she feels no better about herself. She's got a body to die for and I just want to hold it, but alot of the time when I touch her stomach, which to me is one of her most attractive features (perhaps becos it's forbidden), she recoils and pulls my hand away!! Like I've violated her. Same with her legs! I'd understand if they genuinly wern't attractive, but for the girl your madly in love with to have such an amazing physique and to not even feel remotely attractive... It's upsetting. I have no idea what she's comparing herself to because I've never come accross anything so beautiful on this planet. All I want is for her to feel good about herself, she deserves it! She's a 10 and a perfect 10 at that. She trusts me and loves me more than I love her, and that's alot. And she has no mental issues apart from perhaps some self confidence problems, but then I do too. I know she loves me for who I am though so I'm completely at ease with my body around her and others now thanks to her. But I want to do the same for her. It's coming up to summer and she could easily be the most attractive women on the beach in a bakini, but she has issues baring anything more than the tops of her feet. And as a result she gets hot... Help!
Do you think he likes me if: (Best answer gets 10 pts)? -His dad asked my name because his son wanted to know -When he looked at me he always held his gaze but I had to look away -He kept walking past me constantly on the beach -At the festival if I went to a different part with my family, he would shortly follow with his friends and look over at me -When I saw him at a bar he was looking at me and his friends were laughing -When I pulled my top up to put on my bikini I saw him walking with his friend, he was looking at me and quickly looked away -Hes quite shy to speak to me -It feels like his eyes are penetrating into my soul when he looks at me. Do you think he likes me, he is the most beautiful boy I have ever seen!
Please can someone who speaks spanish help me? 10 points? I know it is really random but i need it really badly. I know it is a lot but you can just help me with one or two.. I'd be amazed if someone did the whole thing.. 10 points? 1) There are nice hotels located five minutes away from the hotel. They are cheap four star and five star hotels which plenty of tourists like to stay. They provide family rooms and breakfast. Although I don’t think they do lunch or dinner. But that doesn’t matter because there are plenty of nice, top rated restaurants that specialises in different types of cultural foods. Last month a new Chinese restaurant opened ant apparently it’s really popular, I recommend you to try it, I’m sure you will love it! Do you like Chinese food? 2) There are plenty of interesting, and fun places to visit. There is a cinema which has twenty five screens. The building is really nice in the outside and quite big in the inside . They have plenty of refreshments you can buy for the movie you want to watch and plenty of different flavours of popcorn. Do you like popcorn? 3) If you like golf there is a beautiful golf course you will enjoy. You don’t have to be a golf member to play although most tourists who love to play golf and come here every summer like to sign up to the club because it’s cheaper. Do you play golf much? 4) On a nice day you can go relax and sunbathe on the beach. It has beautiful white sand and very nice blue sea. Most people like to get involved with water activities such as water skiing or fishing. It’s fun you should try it! Do you and your family like to go fishing much? 5) There is plenty of good transport. If you like you can either take the bus, train or taxi. They are all available in the town centre and can take you anywhere you like. Recently a few weeks ago they built tram rails that run through the whole town. People prefer this more because you can see more sites as you drive through the whole area. How many people are in your family? 6) Your teenage children might like disco dancing. There are plenty good disco’s during the evening time for under 18s. No alcohol is served and there are plenty of securities around but I have never heard of any problems before. Many people who have been before say they have loved it. Do you like dancing much? 7) If you are in need to post a letter or postcard there is a small post office in the town centre. It is easy to find and very useful. There is also a church, you can either walk twenty minutes or ask for a taxi. Online translator is wrong!
(PART 2/2) Please read my essay and correct any grammatical errors I have! EASY 10 POINTS! HELP PLEASE!? PLEASE GO TO PART 1/2 AND READ IT BEFORE YOU READ THIS ONE. I couldnt fit it all in this question so I had to split the essay up. Thanks! (same paragraph from part 1/2) The putt-putt area was on the very top of the ship, so as we were playing, we were literally standing at the very top of the boat looking down into the ocean. There were high walls so no one could hit the putt-putt balls into the water, or more importantly, fall off of the ship. We played that for a little while and then we headed over to the basketball court. The basketball court was on the top of the ship as well, however, it was on the opposite end of the ship. We spent our whole day enjoying ourselves and just having fun. We all settled in our rooms by 9:00 that evening, because we knew we had a full day planned for the following day, and we didn’t want to be tired or worn out. As soon as my head hit the pillow, I fell asleep. The best sleep I have ever gotten was on that cruise ship. The ocean was so soothing and relaxing. The next morning, we all got up and got ready because we were scheduled to arrive in Cozumel at 9:00. As we exited the ship, we were greeted by traditional Spanish dancers. They were wearing very unique costumes and they were very friendly. We spent our first day getting familiar with the city. It was definitely very unique and different. The main form of transportation was by scooters and horses. It was very hard to catch a taxi, but we were able to flag down a few. We didn’t go swimming in the ocean our first day. Instead, we went shopping and sight seeing. It was difficult to understand many of the people there, as most of them only spoke Spanish. We all stuck together and just explored the whole city. At around 12:00 that afternoon, we decided to sit down and eat lunch. I was very surprised when all of our food came to us as we ordered it, because we couldn’t understand our waiter, and he couldn’t understand us. We had to communicate by pointing at pictures on the menu. The food was excellent and I was glad I got to experience real Mexican food versus some substitute Mexican food, such as Taco Bell. Not only did the food taste different, but the soft drinks did too. After we had lunch, we continued our excursion throughout the beautiful city. We had to return back to the ship by 5:00 PM, so we started walking back at around 4:00. If one were to miss the 5:00 deadline, he/she would be stuck in Mexico! Once everyone was back on the ship, we headed towards Playa del Carmen. The next morning, we docked in Playa del Carmen. In English, that would translate to Carmen Beach. It seemed as though everyone was trying to get off the ship at the same time, which caused a mass of confusion. Once we were finally able to exit, we went straight to the beach. It was a beautiful day and the water felt just right. There was a multitude of things we could have done, such as snorkeling, but they were all extremely expensive. My cousins and I were out in the ocean most of the time, but we would occasionally go and sit on the sand with the adults. During one of those times when we were relaxing on the beach, a man walked up and he was trying to get us to go parasailing. I am very terrified of heights but at the same time, I wanted to face my fear and go for it because it was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I decided I would do it, but only if my cousin and uncle did it too. We each paid the man sixty dollars and we were taken to the location. The boat was out in the middle of the ocean, so we had to ride the jet skis to the boat. We each got onto the boat, where we were securely strapped in. We were strapped into one parasail, where we sat side by side, horizontally. Once we were strapped in, we were told to stand at the very back of the boat. The driver took off, and the wind caught the parasail, pulling us into the air. Once we were in the air, it was as if all of my fears went away, especially my fear of heights. He took us way out into the ocean, so far out that we were no longer able to see the shore. The water was extremely clear, and we could see all of the turtles, fish, and even sharks! On our way back to shore, the driver thought it would be funny to slow down, thus submerging us into the water. In the middle of the ocean, he slowed down, causing the parasail to go down since no wind was holding us up. We started going down faster and faster until our feet were wading in the water. In the few seconds we were in the water, we started to become worried because we thought the boat had broken down. We didn’t want to be stranded in the middle of the ocean where we would be fair game to any sharks or other predators. We knew it was a joke when the driver looked back at us and started laughing. He then picked up the speed and took us back to shore. We were in the air for around 35 minutes before we were brought back down onto the boat. After we were finished with that, it was time to head back to the boat and get ready My teacher said she will not proofread any papers. She will answer specific questions we ask about the papaer, but she will not check it and correct errors. Thats why I came here.

Add more stuff about if you like it and if you want to read more email me and give your address in you answer. Chapter One “Is my beginning really my end?” I blew the candle out the room suddenly became dark and cold. I lay on the bed what have I gotten myself into? I thought to myself. The answer was clear to me but I just did’t want to believe it. I groaned and rolled off my bed making a loud thud on the ground. “Hey what’s going on up there?!” Daniel screamed up as he ran up the stairs busting into my room. “You don’t always have to worry about me” I murmured as I got off the floor and stood about 3 feet across from him. “Are you sure about that?” he smiled. “Shut up!” I yelled pushing him as he stumbled to the ground. “Violence is never the answer.” He laughed. “Says the man who -” he interrupted me “Who what? Shelly this is a new life lets forget about the past.” He said rubbing his top forehead lightly pushing back his brown chestnut colored hair. “How can we forget the past when the past is here!” I yelled. “Where’s the past! Where is it?” he yelled even louder. “It’s right here.” I said pointing to myself. “I’m the reason we’re here I’m the reason you’re here and I’m the reason why.” I silently responded. Daniel came to me and hugged me. “You’re definitely not the reason we’re here. They are” he said lightly. Daniel left the room quietly and I sat back down on my bed of my dark room. Although we weren’t staying long this felt like an actual home to me. Usually we stayed in hotels, motels, old apartments but this was different it was a beach house across the sand beach of Plum Island. It was beautiful and cozy. I always walk up and down the beach laying there at night thinking if we were ever going to leave this place of unnatural trauma and deep depression and when I say “this place” I mean this state of mind. The nasty disease that kills me whenever I see Daniel’s sad face…guilt. I could have never dragged Daniel along for these sad months. Don’t let it eat you up Daniel would always say to me. I would solemnly respond quietly murmuring words I did’t even know. But, although I’ve spent most of my life with Daniel I still did’t know who he was or I still don’t know who he is. He’s mysterious and likes it that way. He doesn’t like people who know too much about him. He’s closed up in a cocoon like a butterfly waiting to emerge and be free. But I don’t think that will be anytime soon. You see Daniel is my cousin he’s been with me ever since it happened. I love him so much because he’s like my only family. My family got injured in a fire their fine but after that they forgot about me then Daniel took me in. I hated him for doing that but I started to love him as I progressed. I walked down the stairs to see Daniel his eyes planted on the TV screen. He WAS’t moving…not one movement. He’s probably trying to scare me. “Not funny Daniel.” I laughed he’s good but not to good. He still did’t move. “DAN!” I yelled as I ran to him. I gasped at the unwelcoming sight. A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “DANIEL YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 but someone grabbed my waist. “You really don’t want to do that.” The raspy and flat deep voice said turning me around strangling me. I tried to push away but I did’t. Someone suddenly came behind him and pushed him to the ground. I looked to the couch. Daniel’s body was gone. I stayed in a fear state of crying yelling and fussing as the figure grabbed me and flung me over his back running me out the house. “LET GO!” I shrieked. “LET GO!” I kept saying until we reached a black eclipse. The man who had strangled me was running out the beach house towards us. “AH!” I yelled. Behind the man was another man and woman with blood smothered on their faces. “NO!” I screamed as the man holding me fussed to open the car door. He finally got the door opened and pushed me inside making me land in the front seat. 2 men and 2 women were in the back squished together. This is the end. I thought as the man came into the driver’s seat and sighed. He looked at me confused and tired. “Your one heck of a girl.” He mumbled.
I broke her heart...now she's famous and I'm alone? I will give 10 points for the best answer, and I am sorry if this is a little long but I am desperate here. I'm seriously becoming depressed more and more by the day and I desperately need someones help. I'll try to make it brief. We were best friends since 2nd grade. In 8th grade we started dating. We were inseparable for over 2 years. She was the love of my life, the person I told everything to and she told me everything too. We spent day and night together, we'd sleep together but not doing anything sexual because she wanted to wait and I kind of did too. She knew I'd do anything for her, and she would do the same. I cant even begin to explain it, we were perfect. We had the most beautiful and romantic days/nights at the beach or under the stars, and the time we went to the top of Beverly Hills and watched the sun... I cant even explain how in love I was. One night, I went out with some buddies of mine and they didn't like the whole situation with me and her, they noticed I had spent alot less time with them and we were all drinking and stuff, somehow they convinced me that I was being stupid and I guess I was just really out of it because somehow I believed it. And when I came home, I somehow ended up breaking up with her...I was angry for some reason, and I was out of it. But I remember that night so well despite not being particularly sober. I remember her looking at me so confused and shocked and crying and almost making me cry too, but I left that night. I went to my own home, and went to sleep. The next day when I woke up I expected to have some missed calls, but there were none. I thought it had been a bad dream but realized it was real, and all the horrifying details came back to me. At that moment I realized what an ass I had been and I was sure she never wanted to see me or talk to me again. It took alot for me not to call her, but I just figured she hated me, so I stayed home depressed, planning on eventually calling or running into her, apologizing but I knew she had no reason to forgive me, yes it was a mistake but one that could have been prevented, also the fact that she hated that I sometimes would drink and I told her I'd stop, so I do blame myself...my buddies are so convincing and they pressure me. Anyway I didnt see her for a really long time. I was so depressed, just thinking what I had and what I gave away, myself, and what could have still been. I would be sitting alone in my room crying, thinking that if I hadn't been so stupid, I'd have been with her, and it just killed me to think that. Fast forward to a few years later. Now, she's an extremely successful/famous singer, I cant avoid her anymore because shes everywhere, on tv, magazines, wherever. It finally hit me that there is no more "eventually" because it's too late, Im sure she's changed her number, she has this whole new career/life, it could NEVER be the same. Even if she did somehow, MAGICALLY forgive me, we could never do anything the same, without her being recognized. Thats not even what I care about though, because if she ever talked to me again Id consider myself lucky. I just cant stand it, I see her and I remember how things were before and how they could have still been, it reminds me how stupid I am and it makes me hate myself more and more. Ive seen her once since the awful night, and it was at a taping of a show I had gotten tickets to, since I live close by most of the things that go on in LA, but there was a huge audience and I know she didnt see me. I wish I could apologize, but my worst fear now is that she has just forgotten, or stopped caring. I know she doesnt care anymore. If I did apologize, Id expect something like "Um i dont care, do you see where I am now? i should thank you."... I just miss her. And, although it would never happen, I want to be back together with her...I hate myself every day for what I did. I wish every day to go back in time, I cant live with this! I want to talk to her. I wish she would care. I see her on stage so confident, and it makes me realize she has completely moved on. But i never can :( She is the only love of my life. please help me. I dont know what to do.

A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “Christian YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 but someone grabbed my waist. “You really don’t want to do that.” The raspy and flat deep voice said turning me around strangling me. I tried to push away but I didn’t.

Behind the man was another man and woman with blood smothered on their faces. “NO!” I screamed as the man holding me fussed to open the car door. He finally got the door opened and pushed me inside making me land in the front seat. I buried my face sobbing, confused, Angry and tired he managed to say “What were you thinking!?” and we drove away. Chapter 1.5 Tears poured out of my eyes. I just couldn’t believe it. He said he would never leave me and he lied. I buried my face in my hands. I could feel the strangers face of sympathy. We drove fast without stopping once. The silence in the car was definitely not friendly. I hated the man for taking me away. I hated Christian for lying to me. He said he would never leave me and he did. And I hated myself for sounding like this. A dizzy feeling took me over and I felt faint. I lent over in front of me and my head hit the dashboard with a slam. “Whoa easy now you all right there?” the stranger asked as he slowed the car to the side of the road. I couldn’t move I felt paralyzed; I heard the stranger’s voice “Are you ok?” he said shaking me. “Christian.” I managed to say after each breathe. I felt myself being moved, I groaned.

I groaned and rolled off my bed making a loud thud on the ground. “Hey what’s going on up there?!” Daniel screamed up as he ran up the stairs busting into my room. “You don’t always have to worry about me” I murmured as I got off the floor and stood about 3 feet across from him. “Are you sure about that?” he smiled. “Shut up!” I yelled pushing him as he stumbled to the ground. “Violence is never the answer.” He laughed. “Says the man who -” he interrupted me “Who what? Shelly this is a new life lets forget about the past.” He said rubbing his top forehead lightly pushing back his brown chestnut colored hair. “How can we forget the past when the past is here!” I yelled. “Where’s the past! Where is it?” he yelled even louder. “It’s right here.” I said pointing to myself. “I’m the reason we’re here I’m the reason you’re here and I’m the reason why.” I silently responded. Daniel came to me and hugged me. “You’re definitely not the reason we’re here. They are” he said lightly. Daniel left the room quietly and I sat back down on my bed of my dark room. Although we weren’t staying long this felt like an actual home to me. Usually we stayed in hotels, motels, old apartments but this was different it was a beach house across the sand beach of Plum Island. It was beautiful and cozy. I always walk up and down the beach laying there at night thinking if we were ever going to leave this place of unnatural trauma and deep depression and when I say “this place” I mean this state of mind. The nasty disease that kills me whenever I see Daniel’s sad face…guilt. I could have never dragged Daniel along for these sad months. Don’t let it eat you up Daniel would always say to me. I would solemnly respond quietly murmuring words I did’t even know. But, although I’ve spent most of my life with Daniel I still did’t know who he was or I still don’t know who he is. He’s mysterious and likes it that way. He doesn’t like people who know too much about him. He’s closed up in a cocoon like a butterfly waiting to emerge and be free. But I don’t think that will be anytime soon. You see Daniel is my cousin he’s been with me ever since it happened. I love him so much because he’s like my only family. My family got injured in a fire their fine but after that they forgot about me then Daniel took me in. I hated him for doing that but I started to love him as I progressed. I walked down the stairs to see Daniel his eyes planted on the TV screen. He WAS’t moving…not one movement. He’s probably trying to scare me. “Not funny Daniel.” I laughed he’s good but not to good. He still did’t move. “DAN!” I yelled as I ran to him. I gasped at the unwelcoming sight. A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “DANIEL YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 but someone grabbed my waist. “You really don’t want to do that.” The raspy and flat deep voice said turning me around strangling me. I tried to push away but I did’t. Someone suddenly came behind him and pushed him to the ground. I looked to the couch. Daniel’s body was gone. I stayed in a fear state of crying yelling and fussing as the figure grabbed me and flung me over his back running me out the house. “LET GO!” I shrieked. “LET GO!” I kept saying until we reached a black eclipse. The man who had strangled me was running out the beach house towards us. “AH!” I yelled. Behind the man was another man and woman with blood smothered on their faces. “NO!” I screamed as the man holding me fussed to open the car door. He finally got the door opened and pushed me inside making me land in the front seat. 2 men and 2 women were in the back squished together. This is the end. I thought as the man came into the driver’s seat and sighed. He looked at me confused and tired. “Your one heck of a girl.” He mumbled.
Is my story good? Rate 1-10.? Chapter One I blew out the candle in my room; it became dark yet the silver moon outside lit up my room brightly. I lay on my cold bed. What have I gotten myself into? I thought to myself. The answer was clear to me but I just didn’t…I just couldn’t admit it. I groaned. I suddenly rolled off my bed causing a big thud on the wooden floor. “Hey what’s going on up there?!” Christian screamed up as he ran up the stairs busting into my room. “You don’t always have to worry about me” I murmured as I got off the floor and stood about 3 feet across from him. “Are you sure about that?” he smiled. “Shut up!” I yelled pushing him as he stumbled to the ground. “Violence is never the answer.” He laughed. “Says the man who -” he interrupted me “Who what? Melissa this is a new life lets forget about the past.” He said rubbing his top forehead lightly pushing back his brown chestnut colored hair. “How can we forget the past when the past is here?” I yelled. “Where’s the past! Where is it?” he yelled even louder. “It’s right here.” I said pointing to myself. “I’m the reason we’re here I’m the reason you’re here and I’m the reason why.” I silently responded. Christian came to me and hugged me. “You’re definitely not the reason we’re here. They are” he said lightly. Christian left the room quietly and I sat back down on my bed in my dark room.

My family got injured in a fire their fine but after that they forgot about me then Christian took me in. I hated him for doing that but I started to love him as I progressed. I walked down the hollow stairs to see Christian’s eyes planted on the TV. He wasn’t moving…not one movement, almost like he was paralyzed. He’s probably trying to scare me. “Not funny Christian.” I laughed. He’s good but not that good. Still, he didn’t move. “Chris!” I yelled as I ran to him. I gasped at the unwelcoming sight. A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “CHRISTIAN YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 before it was too late. I can’t lose him. Suddenly, someone from behind clutched my waist. “I don’t think you want to do that.” The raspy voice said. “Let go!” I screamed. “I’ll let go when I’m ready!” the voice yelled back. I felt a cold knife piercing through my back. “Please No!” I shrieked sobbing. Then I felt a force push the figure away and the pain seemed to heal. I could see blood on the floor from my injured back. As I got up to run, the figure that saved my life grabbed me and ran out the door. I don’t deserve to live! I thought to myself as I sobbed. We arrived in front of silver SUV. He shoved me in and I landed in the front seat. He quickly got into the driver’s seat as I got a good look at his face. He had chestnut brown hair, blue eyes, and a tan complexion. “You ok?” he breathed tiredly. Gasping for breath I choked a bit but answered feebly “yes I’m fine.” “I’m Melissa” I gasped for air. “Adam…that’s a big cut you got there.” He said as we drove off. I closed my eyes as tears escaped. “We’ll be home soon.” Adam whispered. “No we won’t! Christian was my home we’ll never be home!” I sobbed. I couldn’t control myself… “Why’d you save me? I should die! I don’t deserve to live!” “I saved you because you have a purpose in life. And someone out there to love.” He yelled. “But who?” I whispered. He bit his lip as if he were thinking. “I can’t tell the future but what I can tell you is that, your needed and if you died now then…” I clenched my teeth. “Then why’d Christian have to die!” Without thinking I opened the door and lunged myself out the speeding car. I could feel deep cuts molding there selves in my skin. It’s over now. I can be with Christian. Or so I thought. What should I add? What should I take away? What do you like? What do you hate? Favorite character? Favorite Part? Answer all those and you get best answer. What do you think its about? What's a good title?

He had black hair and chestnut brown eyes. “I’m…” I chocked on my words. “I know who you are.” He smiled again. I suddenly became safe, but I still missed… Christian. Chapter 1.5 “Is my beginning really my end?” “Some questions are left unanswered” “I awoke anxious and sick at the same time the day I dreaded had finally come” The sun shone through the window brightly and uneasily wondering if it had arrived at the correct time.

how can the USA possibly have the best looking women on earth? i find this to be false! http://www.askmen.com/top_10/travel_200/210c_travel_top_ten.html we have beautiful women. And i am American But i have travelled a lot and i am not even old at all. In my experiences if you where to go per Capita total # of women who are beautiful say per 100,000 or good looking the USA would rank very low. Here is the thing though we have 312,000,000 Million people in our Country. So of course we are going to have a Large # of attractive women. But at that they are very very very small compared to the # of attractive women elsewhere let alone id say the % in the USA Is no more than 4% of the women or 5% being generally attractive. Very very id say really like 2% of women are even as descent or hot as say Megan fox. even without her plastic surgery which makes her look worse or her fake boobs megan fox in reality beats out most of all the women you come in contact with. I know because i have been to at 15 different states and have family in tons of different cities. i Also use my eyes! at the airport on saturday i probably say like 10,000 the whole day and i really payed attention and i came to realize that like 95% of the world = ugly! i realize i probably am not viewed as a "Hot Guy" but what Man really belives the USA produces the hottest women? like i said the women in hollywood are .002 of the population in general. Go to Norway or Sweden- which ive been to i got family in norway. Or Spain or Russia which ive been also, the women on average are gorgeous you see beautiful women everywhere. Not so much in spain but in norway and denmark and sweden, especially in copenhagon and stockholm, i saw women who where gorgeous working jobs that in the USA are reserved typically for ugly people who live in poverty and are fat. I saw gorgeous women working at Convienent stores!! imagine that! you walk into a mcdonalds and the woman looks to me better than megan fox or blake lively, she was skinny but had an amazing body all natural and just gorgeous eyes. im sorry but in my opinion id favor the list below http://www.expatify.com/advice/top-10-countries-with-the-hottest-women.html. just take india off the list and move japan to like #4 i mean really 60% of adults are oveweight and 30% are obese and factor into that overweight category. and the % is increasing!! how can a country with 60% of the females and men over the age of 18 being overweight possibly be f3cking #1??? really fellows next time you go outside or the airport or elsewhere open your eyes. the few places i see hot women everywhere is T.V., Porn, Strip club which i dont care for, Hooters, and the beach. And some Of the big state colleges. and at that the beach and colleges at least half the people are not attractive.
DEAD ISLAND Discussion (SPOILERS!!!) What Do You Think? Hello everybody. My name is James. I'm here to make a discuission about the 2 month old game 'Dead Island'. i have waited 2 months so that everyone can have a chance to buy the game and get into it. Firstly im going to talk about the zombies themselves. do you think that they are too boring, too hard, too many or too less? i personally think that there arent enough because if it was a real island then there would be millions of zombies trying to get in. i know there are quite alot of zombies already but if you take a second to look at the hotel then theres about 1,000+ rooms and with an average of 4 people in each room then you can do the maths. thats just the hotel. think of the bungalows (gold, diamond and pool). your looking to about 60,000 tourists. i dont hate the game i love it. and yes there is the fact that it is a game and that many zombies would seriously slow down the game. but what im thinking is there should be a digit number in the top right corner stating how many zombies there are. more if humans get bit and less when the hero kills them. also i think there should be more of a story behind the types of zombies and how they evolve. i know there is for the infected and walkers (normal people turn into infected minutes after the bite and weeks later they become walkers after slowly decaying from infected.) but how do the floaters, rams, thugs, butchers, suiciders come about? but what i absolutely hate about fans is they say that its too boring. but to be honest if you want it to be fun you have to make it fun. when i started playing i was just treating it all as an every day thing. what i do is read the background from the heros. i then put myself into the hero playing how they would act if they woke up to an apocalpse. i would be scared of everything that comes near me. if an infected person is running at me i would just stand there and fight it. id panic and run off. what do you all think about being imune. to be honest i think that it is a bit boring because once you die you respawn. i think it should be more of a survival game (where everythings the same. the only differences are the start of it. instead of getting bitten you get attacked by the same zombie but you kill it straight away. the rest of the game being if you get bit you have to start again. also you have to either build your own safe place to sleep or clear out a big place like the lighthouse or lifeguard tower. get rid of any zombies yourself and live in it, putting up your own barricades such as fences and tables and chairs. no respawning cars either and you have to eat, sleep, urinate, shower, look for food supplies on your own, look for survivors take take back E.T.C. all those combined to make more points). moving on. the DWS (decaying weapon system), to me, is too much. i know that a weapon like knife will decay over time but not after 10 swings. i think the DWS should be giving the player a settings option on/off like on the sims 3 where you decide the life span in days from 6 - 900. only in dead island its weapons. so from 6 - 900 swings. moving on (again) i think its annoying when you kill someone such as jason and they respawn a few minutes later. i think there should be no respawning of anything. once its gone its gone. such as cars, weapons, humans, or even zombies (mostly aimed at the prison where there are rams when you just went to that section to kill it. happens alot in the mission where you have to escort the prisoner to the canteen. another thing is that mowens boat is reliable. why cant you just leave then instead of going to the prison. or atleast on the beach you see some wooden dingies. whats wrong with them? in all fairness its an awesome game. techland have put alot of effort into it and i think the graphics are beautiful. ive gone over most things already but the title states 'what do you think?' so please comment saying what you think about the game and what you like. dont be afraid to comment as its a public chat.so let me get the fire started by saying thankyou so much for your time reading this post.
How can i help my girlfriend be less self conscious? I am 17, my girlfriend is 16. We have been together over a year now and although we do have sex, she is VERY self conscious of her body. We have been having sex for about 10-11 months... and because of her poor image of herself she never wants to get on top, or even try any position other then the 1 we have been using. Before i forget, she is beautiful! I'm not just saying that because she is my girlfriend. She looks just like the Olsen twins...Before their drugs/eating disorders. Anyway if you know what they look like you know they are beautiful and are no where near fat! My girlfriend is constantly crying about how she thinks she is fat, no matter how many times i tell her she is beautiful she will always continue to complain about it. If we are watching a movie or at the beach and she sees girls in a bikini (most of them are not as skinny as her) she sometimes starts crying and says "why cant i look like that?!" I always tell her because your better looking! but she refuses to believe me. (keep in mind i am always telling her she is beautiful, not only if shes complaining about it) I want to help her get over her self consciousness! PLEASE HELP!

I really need help picking a Florida college/university...this is so difficult! Too many options...? Let me first start by giving you some background information on myself: - Senior - 3.7 GPA - Top 5% in class (rank 20) - 24 college credits earned in high school (AP and dual enrollment) - Undecided major, although I think business major is what I want most, specializing in entrepreneurship, since I've owned 3 of my own successful businesses since I was 16. - Have NOT visited any universities yet I applied to all of the major schools in Florida (resident), which are University of Florida, Florida State University, University of Central Florida, and Florida Atlantic University. I've found out that I've been accepted to all four, and all for the 2011 Fall Term, except for University of Florida in which I was accepted for the Summer B term (starts July). Now many people have told me that I'm stupid for even considering this, but I was thinking about staying here in Palm Beach and going to Palm Beach State College (previously Palm Beach Community College). The main reason I'm even considering this is because of the financial situation I would be in...my parents are going to try to help me out with some college expenses, but the tuition and housing will most likely be my own responsibility (I think they said they'd buy my meal plan and books). I've applied for FAFSA, and I'm not sure how much I'll be getting yet, but I think it will be a good amount due to the fact its only in my dad's name, and his income for this last year was like $10,000, just because the economy is so bad and no one is building large homes (he is an estate builder). So anyways I know I'll be getting some money from that, which will help, alongside hopefully a 75% tuition scholarship from Florida Bright Futures (my SAT score was 30 points too low to get a full ride). This can be applied to either a university or the community college, along with the FAFSA money. And finally I know this isn't something I should be basing my whole decision on but it is something...I have a girlfriend here that as of now I've been dating 5 months and I really do think I'm in love with her...however she's a year behind me and if I went away to a university (besides FAU which is close to home), then I would probably have to break it off with her. Here is the list of pro's and con's for each option that I've put together: Palm Beach State College: - Get paid to go to college through FAFSA; tuition is ~$1,200 semester, FAFSA pays more than $3,000 per semester, and that's without any help from Bright Futures even! - Still could live at home (eek!), but save ~$10k total (2 years in a dorm cost) on housing expenses - Options to explore different majors and take different electives to see what I like best at a cheaper cost then doing so at a university - Save on meal plan, which would be ~8k total in a dorm for unlimited meals (which I have at home) - Ability to keep my job at Hollister during the year and lifeguard at a local waterpark during summer - Staying with my girlfriend for 2 more years, although that would mean commitment and having to get married to her or something once she graduates...which I don't want yet, too expensive! - Already earned lots of dual enrollment credits here, which I think can be transfered. Florida Atlantic University: - Close enough to home (40 mins) where I could live on-campus or at home still. - Looks better than PBSC when I transfer after a year or two - Tuition is cheaper - Almost the same pro's as PBSC University of Central Florida: - Great party school (good or bad thing?) - Not really a strong business program though - Lots of friends going there and getting apartments (cheaper housing) - Close to theme parks in Orlando - Only 3 hours from home Florida State University: - Beautiful campus! - Good business program - Awesome area with lots to do around town - Originally my first pick for college - Lots of pretty girls I've heard (; - Only con is how far away from home it is...7 hours. Which could be good or bad! University of Florida: - VERY strong business college - Ranked top among public schools - Great football team - 5 hours from home - I heard Gainesville is a boring city however? And the campus isn't that pretty? - Admitted for Summer B, not Fall term. Meaning I'd have to leave this town in July, which seems so close :/ So as you can see I've really though this through, and I'm getting lots of opinions for both sides on things. The main issue I'm having is whether to stay at home and go to PBSC (or maybe FAU), or to go off to one of the universities. Remember, money is what it comes down to, but if I have to take a student loan because it's more worth it to go to a University and get a better job/connections, then I'll do that. I don't know if going to a community college then transferring will affect getting a better job or not? Also I forgot to mention, lately my girlfriend has been lying to me and just aggrivating me on certain issues such as her future, she doesn't take very serious. She's gotten two F's so far in high school, and only has a 2.2 GPA. She has no plans for college, and I guess thinks that I will support her after she graduates. Think again. She is also only a sophomore, so I'd be stuck dating a high school chick when there's plenty of hot college girls out there (even though trust me she's gorgeous and tops most college girls anyways). I just don't like the fact I've been busting her in lies and can't trust her when she'll be in school without me.

Can you please critique this? I am putting the prologue and what I have of chapter 1 up. But, critique your hardest. Also, give suggestions etc. _______________ Prologue Karina was standing on top of the cliff with her eye lids shut. Feeling the harsh wind wrap around her. Burning every square inch of her. Her mouth hung open, letting the salty air fill. Making it hard to breathe.Her eyes started to water from the harsh memories that kept playing over and over in her mind. But, the one thing she could not seem to forget, was his purple eyes glaring at her. He had hurt her body and soul making her wish she could forget. Today was the day she would forget all about everything that haunted her. She opened up her eyes and looked down. She took in a deep breath. " Don't!" shouted Blake. "Why?!" He stepped closer to her. His hands were stretched out. He was awaiting for her to come to him so he could embrace her in his arms. "Why! Well, because I love you, Karina! Karina Rose Winter, I have been in love with you forever. And, if you jump over that cliff, then my life would be shattered into million of pieces, knowing that you are gone forever." "Yeah, right Blake! Why should I believe you? All you are is scum. You hurt me every single second, that I had to see your face. You see I was all wrapped up in looks that I forgot things and did not see pass your horrid mask. I could never love anyone like you! You disgust me!" She argued back. Blake stepped forward once again, trying to get Karina. She slowly turned around to meet his face. Her eyes were set with cold, death like eyes. Her jaw was set in place. Determination was written all over her face. "You monster, get away from me!" "Karina, I will not leave. Not until you believe that I am in love with you from every square inch of my soul. I know I have been a monster to you. But, I need to start to treat you as my princess and your hero. Also, Karina, remember all the good memories of when I never hurt you. How I use to see the love in your eyes for me. Your beautiful blue eyes use to glisten every time I came around to see you. But, I want to restore that and have our beautiful love turn into a blooming rose." Karina turned around and looked down to see the churning sea laying beneath the cliff. It looked so inviting. It will take all of her worries away from her. She could get Blake out of her hair and not have to listen to Blake's deceiving lies. " Goodbye Blake." She whispered as she walked toward the edge of the cliff. She took a deep breath and counted to 10. She closed her eyes and jumped. Blake fell to his knees screaming, " Karina, my love. Why? Why!?" Then after was sobs from him. It felt like the longest fall in her life. The end was coming shortly. Her bones and her neck would be broken when she hit the water. As she was falling to her death, she thought of every single memory she had of this year. Tears fell to her face. When she hit the water she let out a scream and then the water engulfed her. _____________________ Chapter 1 Today was the first day of eleventh grade. No doubt in mind was anyone ready for the new school year. Why would a teenager want to get up very early in the morning and learn when they were used to sleeping in and either going to the mall, over a friends house, the beach, to the skate park, on a vacation, or to the movies. Well, that is over for now. School was a nightmare to most teenagers. "Karina Rose Winter! Get your lazy butt down here or you are going to miss the bus. We don't want that on your first day of school?" Screamed Karina's mother from the kitchen. Karina arose out of her bed with a groan. She walked ever so slow over to her closet to decide what she would wear today. She wanted to make a good impression on everyone when she walked into the school. She chose a red top with a heart shaped necklace and earrings, tan shorts and white flip flops. She eyed herself in the mirror. She needed to do something with her hair. She walked over to her dresser and picked up brown hair tie and put her hair golden wavy hair into a side pony tail. "Hurry up Karina!" yelled her mother. "Coming mother!" yelled Karina as she ran down stairs. She ran into the kitchen to pick up a gornola bar, lunch money, her purse, and her backpack. ____________________________ I know it is not that well done. But, I know chapter 1 is not great. I have to go back add more things. Uh, I am 14 and I don't want anyone to give Special treatment on the writing.
hey can anyone help my story, i want to submit it for online publication? oh and is for a surfing website - surfline --------- Barrels are hard to find, they don’t pop in most corners of the earth you know. Which is why when I saw them all along a certain Mexican beach break - all peaky and square - adrenaline started pumping through my veins and my dopamine levels went through the roof. They looked promising, so smooth and elegant, a beautiful heaven which was my duty to insert myself into. Best part of all, I had no time restrains, my stay could be a day, week or month – things were cheap and time was spares. Who would off thought the first surf spot in this road trip would be so good? It was true gold – barrels and no crowds. Is there something better than this? And I got to tell you, after three remarkable days of driving – from San Diego – this was simply icing on the cake. Things however, did take a turn for the worst, and it may be fair to point out, nothing actually changed – just my perception. After a couple good beat-downs and more than memorable wipeouts, a 10 foot, top to bottom barrel pretty much seized to be a noble-enticing friend. In my very first session, I realized it will toss you around and make you wish sand in your ears was your only problem. This was my first time at a place so consistently epic… and also deadly. Hence I admit I was crapping my pants pretty badly. “Two people normally drown here each month - sometimes is three.” A local told me, as I was about to paddle out one morning. “Great” I thought “Just what I needed to hear” I suppose the local fishermen were to blame for the drowning, and not the surfers, but this place was evil which is what I intent to get across. Evil and perfect. And because of its perfection, we were out there every morning, which at the same time, we were keeping an eye on one and other… Although, in all reality, was kind of pointless cause’ in the end, we all knew we were on our own. If you actually got clipped or caught inside, you swam for your life and hoped somebody up high liked you. But I had no time retrains and was determined to tame the beast and master my skills. So one board went by and another one soon followed… “Put it together” I told the only repair man in town as I handed him my two pieces of foam. That was my last board so I had to sit that one out…. I remember I sat down all day under an umbrella; I was simply watching the waves explode over the shallow sandbars. There were few takers here and there, trying to channel the Pacific’s energy into what could be called some-what-pacific-energies. But few succeeded and the rest just made up for a great show. Upon watching for a while I did come to the conclusion there were many, many ways to mess up a perfect wave, catch a rail, a paddle short, a pump away… way too many to list really. Day 4: I gotten a couple good ones, my travel partners had also, swell was starting to get out of hand and we all had dramatically reduced our quivers. Awesome, now lets fast forward to day 7: “There is absolutely no way in hell I am paddling out there!”… And I had to agree with my friend… 20 feet bombs were the plate of the day and to top it all, I could only count 6 guys out there, out of which, two were towing – It was time for us to go. So we drove off and surfed some okay pointbreaks, partied in Acapulco and later on got some pits in Puerto. The trip then, went on to Guatemala and El Salvador. And to be honest, surf in general was good all around… but nothing ever came close to our first locale. And now something I told my friend resounds in my head “This place is real good, but if this is the best surf we get in the 40 days we got, I’d be kind of pissed” – Spoiled brat… -------------- thanks, and any advice or help is good.
Guy Im dating wants me to LOSE WEIGHT for him ? Should I ? Im very conflicted. Things have come to head with the guy im dating I had told him when we started dating that i wanted to loose a bit of weight. was size 10 top, size 8 bottoms. weve been dating sporadically for 4 months long distance im size 6/8 now. i also found out im moving to his city sept 1 he just went on vacation to the beach without me even though we re not exclusive he calls me every night and tells me everything. he told me he was at the beach and talking to girls. i then asked him why he didnt take me he said oh well i told him i still want to lose some weight OUCH I said oh does that matter that much ? he said he would find me so hot and even more beautiful at size 2 or even size zero he said i should try and get down to size 2 and then we'll see i hung up the phone and then sent him a pissed off email he said he is hurt i called him shallow and that i knew from the start that he finds thin dancer types most attractive and he didnt mean to hurt my feelings. now things are awkward what sucks is my best female friend and my own mother have told me whats the harm in getting thinner since im already trying to lose weight. im very confused. now things are incredibly weird between us and he is acting distant. what should i do ? ive been a 2 and been a zero, it actually can be a very attractive look. my mom was a 2 even after having me so thats why she is on his side. my best friend has bene married 10 years and lost weight for her husband while dating.
how can i tell if this girl likes me? its the last week of school and me and this girl become friends. before that we have never spoken a word. she's quite the catch. I mean UIL, top 10% of her class, class officer, doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, virgin...pure. I've always liked her and thought she was beautiful. She is smart, clever, funny, mature, dresses extremely well and all in all, seemingly, a nice person. First thing she says to me is "aren't you that kid i see around alllll the time" and she really exaggerates the "all". Funny, cause "I" only see her maybe once out of the whole day, and i really look too.We get to talking. Knowing that i have a girlfriend, she gives me her number anyway when i ask for it and lets me call her. before that, we were talking on facebook and she said she had to work on a project and couldn't talk, i tell her that she can text me when she is done if she wants. its around 11:30 at night. She texts "Hello..." and I ask her if she had finished her project, she says "No.." (she is really hits the books hard) I ask to call her, she says yes. we talk for an hour that night till a little after midnight, we text most of the day the following day till midnight and again on the next day. She seems to be giving me hints that she could like me, but not sure. I've had the mistake of taking a girl's friendlinesss for attraction. Now she is at the beach with friends, and we haven't talked for about a day. Im confused and feel dumb.
I broke her heart...now she's famous and I'm alone? I will give 10 points for the best answer, and I am sorry if this is a little long but I am desperate here. I'm seriously becoming depressed more and more by the day and I desperately need someones help. I'll try to make it brief. We were best friends since 2nd grade. In 8th grade we started dating. We were inseparable for over 2 years. She was the love of my life, the person I told everything to and she told me everything too. We spent day and night together, we'd sleep together but not doing anything sexual because she wanted to wait and I kind of did too. She knew I'd do anything for her, and she would do the same. I cant even begin to explain it, we were perfect. We had the most beautiful and romantic days/nights at the beach or under the stars, and the time we went to the top of Beverly Hills and watched the sun... I cant even explain how in love I was. One night, I went out with some buddies of mine and they didn't like the whole situation with me and her, they noticed I had spent alot less time with them and we were all drinking and stuff, somehow they convinced me that I was being stupid and I guess I was just really out of it because somehow I believed it. And when I came home, I somehow ended up breaking up with her...I was angry for some reason, and I was out of it. But I remember that night so well despite not being particularly sober. I remember her looking at me so confused and shocked and crying and almost making me cry too, but I left that night. I went to my own home, and went to sleep. The next day when I woke up I expected to have some missed calls, but there were none. I thought it had been a bad dream but realized it was real, and all the horrifying details came back to me. At that moment I realized what an ass I had been and I was sure she never wanted to see me or talk to me again. It took alot for me not to call her, but I just figured she hated me, so I stayed home depressed, planning on eventually calling or running into her, apologizing but I knew she had no reason to forgive me, yes it was a mistake but one that could have been prevented, also the fact that she hated that I sometimes would drink and I told her I'd stop, so I do blame myself...my buddies are so convincing and they pressure me. Anyway I didnt see her for a really long time. I was so depressed, just thinking what I had and what I gave away, myself, and what could have still been. I would be sitting alone in my room crying, thinking that if I hadn't been so stupid, I'd have been with her, and it just killed me to think that. Fast forward to a few years later. Now, she's an extremely successful/famous singer, I cant avoid her anymore because shes everywhere, on tv, magazines, wherever. It finally hit me that there is no more "eventually" because it's too late, Im sure she's changed her number, she has this whole new career/life, it could NEVER be the same. Even if she did somehow, MAGICALLY forgive me, we could never do anything the same, without her being recognized. Thats not even what I care about though, because if she ever talked to me again Id consider myself lucky. I just cant stand it, I see her and I remember how things were before and how they could have still been, it reminds me how stupid I am and it makes me hate myself more and more. Ive seen her once since the awful night, and it was at a taping of a show I had gotten tickets to, since I live close by most of the things that go on in LA, but there was a huge audience and I know she didnt see me. I wish I could apologize, but my worst fear now is that she has just forgotten, or stopped caring. I know she doesnt care anymore. If I did apologize, Id expect something like "Um i dont care, do you see where I am now? i should thank you."... I just miss her. And, although it would never happen, I want to be back together with her...I hate myself every day for what I did. I wish every day to go back in time, I cant live with this! I want to talk to her. I wish she would care. I see her on stage so confident, and it makes me realize she has completely moved on. But i never can :( She is the only love of my life. please help me. I dont know what to do.
Do you like my story? 10 points? Chapter One “Is my beginning really my end?” I blew the candle out the room suddenly became dark and cold. I lay on the bed what have I gotten myself into? I thought to myself. The answer was clear to me but I just didn’t want to believe it. I groaned and rolled off my bed making a loud thud on the ground. “Hey what’s going on up there?!” Christian screamed up as he ran up the stairs busting into my room. “You don’t always have to worry about me” I murmured as I got off the floor and stood about 3 feet across from him. “Are you sure about that?” he smiled. “Shut up!” I yelled pushing him as he stumbled to the ground. “Violence is never the answer.” He laughed. “Says the man who -” he interrupted me “Who what? Scarlett this is a new life lets forget about the past.” He said rubbing his top forehead lightly pushing back his brown chestnut colored hair. “How can we forget the past when the past is here?” I yelled. “Where’s the past! Where is it?” he yelled even louder. “It’s right here.” I said pointing to myself. “I’m the reason we’re here I’m the reason you’re here and I’m the reason why.” I silently responded. Christian came to me and hugged me. “You’re definitely not the reason we’re here. They are” he said lightly. Christian left the room quietly and I sat back down on my bed of my dark room. Although we weren’t staying long this felt like an actual home to me. Usually we stayed in hotels, motels, old apartments but this was different it was a beach house across the sand beach of Plum Island. It was beautiful and cozy. I always walk up and down the beach laying there at night thinking if we were ever going to leave this place of unnatural trauma and deep depression and when I say “this place” I mean this state of mind. The nasty disease that kills me whenever I see Christian’s sad face…guilt. I could have never dragged Christian along for these sad months. Don’t let it eat you up Christian would always say to me. I would solemnly respond quietly murmuring words I didn’t even know. But, although I’ve spent most of my life with Christian I still don’t know who he was or I still don’t know who he is. He’s mysterious and likes it that way. He doesn’t like people who know too much about him. He’s closed up in a cocoon like a butterfly waiting to emerge and be free. But I don’t think that will be anytime soon. You see Christian is my cousin he’s been with me ever since it happened. I love him so much because he’s like my only family. My family got injured in a fire their fine but after that they forgot about me then Christian took me in. I hated him for doing that but I started to love him as I progressed. I walked down the stairs to see Christian his eyes planted on the TV screen. He wasn’t moving…not one movement. He’s probably trying to scare me. “Not funny Christian.” I laughed he’s good but not to good. He still didn’t move. “CHRIS!” I yelled as I ran to him. I gasped at the unwelcoming sight. A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “Christian YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 but someone grabbed my waist. “You really don’t want to do that.” The raspy and flat deep voice said turning me around strangling me. I tried to push away but I didn’t. Someone suddenly came behind him and pushed him to the ground. I looked to the couch. Christian’s body was gone. I stayed in a fear state of crying yelling and fussing as the figure grabbed me and flung me over his back running me out the house. “LET GO!” I shrieked. “LET GO!” I kept saying until we reached a black eclipse. The man who had strangled me was running out the beach house towards us. “AH!” I yelled. Behind the man was another man and woman with blood smothered on their faces. “NO!” I screamed as the man holding me fussed to open the car door. He finally got the door opened and pushed me inside making me land in the front seat. I buried my face sobbing, confused, Angry and tired he managed to say “What were you thinking!?” and we drove away. Chapter 1.5 Tears poured out of my eyes. I just couldn’t believe it. He said he would never leave me and he lied. I buried my face in my hands. I could feel the strangers face of sympathy. We drove fast without stopping once. The silence in the car was definitely not friendly. I hated the man for taking me away. I hated Christian for lying to me. He said he would never leave me and he did. And I hated myself for sounding like this. A dizzy feeling took me over and I felt faint. I lent over in front of me and my head hit the dashboard with a slam. What do you think? What can I add? Your favorite part? And anything else. What should I put next I'm stuck. Thanks a lot. Be truthful bye
Do you like my story? 10 points? Chapter One “Is my beginning really my end?” I blew the candle out the room suddenly became dark and cold. I lay on the bed what have I gotten myself into? I thought to myself. The answer was clear to me but I just didn’t want to believe it. I groaned and rolled off my bed making a loud thud on the ground. “Hey what’s going on up there?!” Christian screamed up as he ran up the stairs busting into my room. “You don’t always have to worry about me” I murmured as I got off the floor and stood about 3 feet across from him. “Are you sure about that?” he smiled. “Shut up!” I yelled pushing him as he stumbled to the ground. “Violence is never the answer.” He laughed. “Says the man who -” he interrupted me “Who what? Charlotte this is a new life lets forget about the past.” He said rubbing his top forehead lightly pushing back his brown chestnut colored hair. “How can we forget the past when the past is here?” I yelled. “Where’s the past! Where is it?” he yelled even louder. “It’s right here.” I said pointing to myself. “I’m the reason we’re here I’m the reason you’re here and I’m the reason why.” I silently responded. Christian came to me and hugged me. “You’re definitely not the reason we’re here. They are” he said lightly. Christian left the room quietly and I sat back down on my bed of my dark room. Although we weren’t staying long this felt like an actual home to me. Usually we stayed in hotels, motels, old apartments but this was different it was a beach house across the sand beach of Plum Island. It was beautiful and cozy. I always walk up and down the beach laying there at night thinking if we were ever going to leave this place of unnatural trauma and deep depression and when I say “this place” I mean this state of mind. The nasty disease that kills me whenever I see Christian’s sad face…guilt. I could have never dragged Christian along for these sad months. Don’t let it eat you up Christian would always say to me. I would solemnly respond quietly murmuring words I didn’t even know. But, although I’ve spent most of my life with Christian I still don’t know who he was or I still don’t know who he is. He’s mysterious and likes it that way. He doesn’t like people who know too much about him. He’s closed up in a cocoon like a butterfly waiting to emerge and be free. But I don’t think that will be anytime soon. You see Christian is my cousin he’s been with me ever since it happened. I love him so much because he’s like my only family. My family got injured in a fire their fine but after that they forgot about me then Christian took me in. I hated him for doing that but I started to love him as I progressed. I walked down the stairs to see Christian his eyes planted on the TV screen. He wasn’t moving…not one movement. He’s probably trying to scare me. “Not funny Christian.” I laughed he’s good but not to good. He still didn’t move. “Chris!” I yelled as I ran to him. I gasped at the unwelcoming sight. A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “Christian YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 but someone grabbed my waist. “You really don’t want to do that.” The raspy and flat deep voice said turning me around strangling me. I tried to push away but I didn’t. Someone suddenly came behind him and pushed him to the ground. I looked to the couch. Christian’s body was gone. I stayed in a fear state of crying yelling and fussing as the figure grabbed me and flung me over his back running me out the house. “LET GO!” I shrieked. “LET GO!” I kept saying until we reached a black eclipse. The man who had strangled me was running out the beach house towards us. “AH!” I yelled. Behind the man was another man and woman with blood smothered on their faces. “NO!” I screamed as the man holding me fussed to open the car door. He finally got the door opened and pushed me inside making me land in the front seat. This is the end. I thought as the man came into the driver’s seat and sighed. He looked at me confused and tired. “Your one heck of a girl.” He mumbled. I sobbed. He began to drive. The car was silent. “I’m sorry.” The man mumbled. I looked up at him then at the window still crying. “…I’m Adam.” He smiled. He had black hair and chestnut brown eyes. “I’m…” I chocked on my words. “I know who you are.” He smiled again. I suddenly became safe, but I still missed…Christian. What do you like or not like about it? What's your favorite part? Who do you like so far? Thx</3

Where in the U.S is warm, beautiful and fairly sophisticated? I am a sophisticated, educated and kind-hearted lady, looking for a place to live in the U.S. where it is: warm but not hot; beautiful; has nice white sandy beaches; has some night life and excellent restaurants; and is convenient where I don't need to get in my car and drive for 10-20 minutes everytime I want to go out; safe with low likelihood of tornados and hurricanes; and is not mega expensive; I can handle moderately expensive, but not over the top expensive.
10 questions? L.T.Q. #1I ________________________________________A man packs up all of the contents of his cubicle at work, promising to send out "Lateral Thinking" questions again once he gets settled in his new location. However, due to circumstances not entirely out of his control, after the move he decides not to unpack his belongings. If the cards containing the questions are still packed away, how is he able to continue the e-mail messages? ________________________________________________________________________________Betty signals to the headwaiter in a restaurant, and says, "There's a fly in my tea." The waiter says, "No problem, madam. I will bring you a fresh cup of tea." A few minutes later Betty shouts, "Get the manager! This is the same cup of tea!" How did she know?________________________________________ L.T.Q. #2________________________________________In New York City's Central Park, in the middle of summer, police have discovered the frozen body of a man lying in the centre of a baseball diamond. There are no footprints leading to or away from the body. How did he die, and how did his body get to where it was found?________________________________________ L.T.Q. #3________________________________________Part #1: A horse jumps over the tower and lands on a man, who disappears. How can such a thing be? Part #2: Two priests sitting in the castle's chapel see the queen attack the king and kill him. The priests rise, shake hands, and leave the room why so sanguine about regicide? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #4________________________________________Coming home from work, Simon had just put his key in the lock of his door when he heard his wife Betty scream, "Bill, don't kill me!" He dashes in to find Betty dead with a knife buried in her chest. Standing around the body are a postman, a doctor, and a lawyer. The husband immediately knows the postman killed his wife. How? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #5 ________________________________________ Rachel was sun bathing at a nude beach because she heard it was the best way to acquire an overall tan. Day after day she was out lying in the sun, yet couldn't manage the complete tan. What could she be doing wrong to prevent her from receiving the even tones she so desired? L.T.Q. #6 ________________________________________ Against his better judgment Captain Frank attended Art Bragg's annual Christmas party. Captain Frank sat in a corner trying to be as inconspicuous as possible, when Art trapped him in one of his many tall tales. "Why yes," began Art, "even my days as a younger man were filled with adventures. That beautiful white rabbit skin and that 14 point moosehead on the wall are both from animals that I shot when I was just a lad of 12. I got them both up in Canada during my July 4th holidays. Two summers later I shot this beautiful bear you're sittin' your feet on." Captain Frank realizing that Art was just getting started, got up and said, "Art, excuse me, but I can't take your bull any longer." Why did Captain Frank say this? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #7 ________________________________________ Duncan Drivel had a collection of rare bird calling records which he wished to sell. He sold half of his records plus a half record more to Professor Bumble. then he sold half of what was left and a half record more to Whislin Willy. At this point Duncan had one record left. How many records did Duncan have originally? ________________________________________ Two other questions come to mind. 1. What are Professor Bumble and Whislin Willy going to do with only half a record? Is it the top half or bottom half? Or maybe the left half or the right half. And won't it destroy the record player to try to play only half a record? 2. What is the title of the record Duncan has left, and why did he keep it? Which brings a third question to mind: Who is the biggest turkey of the bunch? L.T.Q. #8 ________________________________________ Charles Pompuss was racing around in his new sports car when he noticed that his throat was parched. He came to a screeching halt in front of the 'Soul-Ace Hotel' and the nine police cars which had been chasing him, slammed into the back of his car and each other's. How many bumpers will have been hit? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #9 ________________________________________ A horse is tied to a five meter rope in front of an old saloon. Six meters behind the horse is a bale of hay. Without breaking his rope, the horse is able to eat the hay whenever he chooses. How is this possible? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #10 ________________________________________ Texas Tom is looking for a cottage set on a beautiful waterfront property. The realtor suggests a new development on the Moscow Sea. He says that the only problem with the property is that it's a little tough to get to right now. But the transportation in the future will make that much easier. What should Tom know? ________________________________________
2nd Date: Can I still see other people and not be exclusive just of yet? -=-=-=-im a chick, btw.-=-=-=-=- The first date was at the movies, hardly any talking, but there was some kissing when my mate flinch and I asked if he was okay, he said fine, and he made the movie first. Second date, or not much of a date, was purely involved with sex in an empty parking lot near the beaches. We only hanged for an hour an a half and he drove me back home. From just this alone, I do not feel too connected with him despite our good astrological matching (lol) he is a bit more sexual and he does seem to have taken a real good interest in me. He constantly says I'm "beautiful" and I look like a "model". Modestly, I don't really think so, but I really appreciate his compliments. I think he is more so physically attracted to me than mentally. He has admitted to be mentally attracted to me, but I need to see it more. So I guess I shall wait it out until the end. Although as what women SHOULD/COULD be doing is "...see other men non-exclusively until someone wants her to be exclusive with them, meaning they are more serious about being together and he wants you all to himself" (Paige Parker). I want to open my options, because sex, I can get anywhere. Reading from ASKMEN.COM on the article: Top 10: Reasons Women Cheat (http://ca.askmen.com/top_10/dating_150/181_dating_list.html/post/942955/3) mentions about how sex, being pleasured, and appreciated can be found elsewhere if not satisfied. I do believe this article has a lot of truth to it as sex is not the only thing that causes others to cheat. So I DO suggest men to appreciate their women as much as possible before anything ruins the good relationship.

sorry..but last time i asked i got 10 answers.....please help!? so today my friend sean asked to hang out which was weird cuz we onkly usually hang out if we're with a group of friends., and so i texted him saying i would drive to his house but he texted back "no, don't. i'll pick you up. look for a range rover outside your house''. i was like okaay so i got ready and everything but i didnt wear make up and then 30 minutes later he arrived at my house and my dad was all like "winter, there's a boy oputside in a range rover with blonde hair and blue eyes. he's asking if you guys could take your convertible". so i ran down the stairs and sean was waiting on my doorstep and he was like "sorry. can we take your car cuz we're going to the beach and i think it would be better taking a top-down rather than my car" so we got into my car and he drove and he held my hand and at the beach we strolled along the waves and he was holding my hand then before sunset, we went up on this large rock and as the sun was going down he kissed me and then his phone rang but he ignored it then as he drove me home, he told me i was beautiful and everything and i told my best friend Karen and she said "Oh my god!!! That was so sweet and perfect"........ then i told my mom and she was like "wow, the boy probably more than likes you. No one would go to all that trouble unless they really liked a girl. Take a chance and go out with him if he wnats you to be his girlfriend. Every girl wishes that a guy would do what Sean did for them." and i wanna trust her but somehow I keep thinking he'll hurt me because of my past-relationship.and now I got a text saying "meet me tomorrow, I have somehting to tell/ask you"......what do you think he's gonna say to me?? I'm kinda scared. and yes, I really really like him. and to the ladies, if you were my age and the same thing happened to you and the guy asked you to be his girlfriend, would you trust that he really liked you and would try not to hurt you?? like, my past relationship wasnt physical or anything. it was just that he broke up with me cuz his ex girlfriend asked him out. and Sean has a reputation for being sweet to girls and even when he breaks a girl's heart (happened only once) he stays friends with them actually. and how come whenever i tell someone this story they go,"A boy did that to you?!?! NOOO!!!!" i mean, really, is it really that hard to find a boy like Sean these days?? i dont know if this will help but i've known him sinc ewe were like 4 and throught high school and elementary and up to now, he's had good grades, gets along fine with my parents (shocking), helps out at the animal shelter but not for the money, wants to be a doctor, and whenever he goes out to a party, he has one drink or two and thats it. he only takes what he can handle and makes sure he doesnt drive drunk guessing by the last thing i wrote, u probably figured out we're both 23
To all my rock brahs! How do we get our own section on Y! Answers? What up brahs?!? The answerist formally known as Citizen King here. Bringin' you my daily question from beautiful Huntington Beach in Southern California! Ok, so now I have been doing Yahoo! answers on-&-off for over a year now. I usually have spent my time in the Rock and Pop section. I love answering all the rock questions you guys ask, but I am getting sick of all these Pop questions though.

An example might be: " What's up brah, wanna go hit up North Shore today, there's a killer swell goin' on now brah!" Good question. Hope it helps! :) Gems: Thx. Full Metal Jacket is the best movie of all-time. I love Joker and Jaguar Mother, coolest dudes ever. Best part in the whole movie is when Lt. Lockhart says the greatest saying ever.

Spanish speaking people please help me translate this correctly!!!!!!!? I am doing a Spanish project and I just read the top of the page and it says it has to be written in Spanish and not in English. I just wrote the whole thing in English because that is what we usually do for culture projects. I would use a translator but they are never accurate. Please please please help! Thank you!! Here is what needs to be translated from English to Spanish: Uruguay is surrounded on three sides by water. To the west is the Uruguay River. To the southwest is the Rio de la Plata. The Atlantic Ocean is in the southeast. Brazil lies to the north of Uruguay. Capital The capital of Uruguay is called Montevideo. Montevideo is a port and is Uruguay’s largest city consisting of over 1,000,000 people. It was established in 1726 originally as a military base and is located in the south part of the country. Population Uruguay’s population is about 3.5 million people. 8810 are of European descent. President Dr. Tabare Vazquez is the current president, elected October 31st, 2004. The climate is mild. Uruguay has warm to hot summers and cool to cold winters. During the winter, Uruguay sometimes gets polar air because of its latitude. In the summer, however, it gets tropical air from Brazil. History Uruguay was originally settled by the Spanish and Portugese in the 1600’s. The Spanish used cattle. They became a factor in the increase of wealth of the country. The capital, Montevideo was founded mostly because of its natural harbor. Culture Because of the different conquerors and immigrants, Uruguay has a diverse culture. The architecture varies from Colonial fortresses to modern urban areas. There are many writers, artists, and musicians. Carlos Vilaro is one of the well known sculptors of Uruguay. There is even a carnival similar to Mardi Gras. Tourist Attractions There are modern skyscrapers, cathedrals, and historic areas in Montevideo, the capital. The historic district called “Old Town” is a popular attration. In the summer, there are beaches and resorts. The beautiful Punta del Diablo is also popular with the tourists. Thank you so much!!!! 10 points for best answer!! Thank you!!!! did you use a translator? Thank you rokerita too!!

Polls & Surveys. did you try and apply to be a beach bum in australia? and who do you think deserves to have ? that job? Australia offers 'best job in world' on paradise island Buzz Up Send Email IM Share Digg Facebook Newsvine del.icio.us Reddit StumbleUpon Technorati Yahoo! Bookmarks Print Mon Jan 12, 10:16 pm ET AFP/File – An Australian state is offering internationally what it calls "the best job in the world" -- … SYDNEY (AFP) – An Australian state is offering internationally what it calls "the best job in the world" -- earning a top salary for lazing around a beautiful tropical island for six months. The job pays 150,000 Australian dollars (105,000 US dollars) and includes free airfares from the winner's home country to Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland's state government announced on Tuesday. In return, the "island caretaker" will be expected to stroll the white sands, snorkel the reef, take care of "a few minor tasks" -- and report to a global audience via weekly blogs, photo diaries and video updates. The successful applicant, who will stay rent-free in a three-bedroom beach home complete with plunge pool and golf buggy, must be a good swimmer, excellent communicator and be able to speak and write English. "They'll also have to talk to media from time to time about what they're doing so they can't be too shy and they'll have to love the sea, the sun, the outdoors," said acting state Premier Paul Lucas. "The fact that they will be paid to explore the islands of the Great Barrier Reef, swim, snorkel and generally live the Queensland lifestyle makes this undoubtedly the best job in the world." Lucas said the campaign was part of a drive to protect the state's 18 billion Australian dollar a year tourism industry during the tough economic climate caused by the global financial meltdown. "Traditional tourism advertising just doesn't cut it sometimes and we are thinking outside the box by launching this campaign." Queensland Tourism Minister Desley Boyle said some people might question whether it was risky to let an unknown person become an unofficial tourism spokesperson for the state. "I think the biggest risk will be that the successful candidate won't want to go home at the end of the six months," she said. "This is a legitimate job which is open to anyone and everyone." Applications are open until February 22. Eleven shortlisted candidates will be flown to Hamilton Island in early May for the final selection process and the six month contract will commence on July 1. Job-seekers can apply on .

My top ten: 1. getaway plan - where the city meets the sea 2. dashboard confessional - stolen 3. jack's mannaquin - the resolution 4. foo fighters - times like these 5. the fray - you found me 6. yellowcard - empty apartment 7. kutless - all of the words 8. journey - don't stop believing 9. lifehouse - you and me 10. michelle branch - goodbye to you My favourite songs of all times I hope they can change your life like they changed mine! I want a song that almost makes me sad because it's so beautiful, and it makes me remember why music is so great!
Any (obscure) music suggestions? I'm up for suggestions! I made a list of the music that is on my computer so you can get an idea of what I listen to. As you can tell, my music taste varies. However, I despise most of the popular bands (okay, ALL) bands of today. Also, keep in mind that I have many more artists on CD that isn't on my computer so they are not listed....so, try to be as obscure as possible.

Do you find this true? AQUARIUS Jan 21 - Feb 19 Ruling Planet: URANUS. The God of unexpected sexual twists and turns Aquarians make much better friends than lovers, but when a typical Aquarian gets some bang-bang, it's more an intellectual experience than an emotional one. Looks aren't important to Aquarians in a relationship, it's the mind and spirit of a lover that turns Aquarius on.They are very entertaining in bed and are probably the most inventive of all the signs.Mental stimulation is more important to them than physical, which means that pornography gets them hot! Aquarians are impatient and like sex to be fast and satisfying. They are very particular about hygiene and contraception and sleeping around holds little interest for them. FAVE POSITION Mutual masturbation. BEST SEX TOY A Dildo. Whether gay, straight, male or female, Aquarians will have some fun with this. AQUARIUS MALE IN BED He has amazing staying power in the sack. He can keep at it and control himself for as long as it takes for YOU to finish! He's up for anything too. Role playing, S&M, posing nude in the backyard at 5am... he's just not into 3somes, swinging or open relationships if YOU are involved. He'll do that for fun, but not with the love of his life. AQUARIUS FEMALE IN BED She's looking for a lover who will be upfront with her, but until she finds him, she will make do with whoever is available. LOVE freaks her out. She likes keeping her emotions under tight control and may come across as cold, but she's just protecting herself. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON AQUARIUS Lie down as if you are top and tailing and gently tickle and stroke the ankles and the calves. Don't tickle for giggles, but tease. After awhile, do the same with your tongue. Lick up, down and all around. Anywhere above the foot and below the knee is fair game. Lightly nip the ankle of your Aquarian, they may laugh, but it's not laughter from tickles, it's a release of tension that will most definitely lead to some action! PISCES Feb 20 - March 20 Ruling Planet: NEPTUNE The God in charge of delicious dreams, dangerous deceptions and sexual fantasies Sexually speaking, Pisces is putty in your hands. Anything you want, anything, is only a question away. If you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile to discover all your secret moan zones, then Pisces is for you! When a typical Piscean makes out, it's an act of romance rather than pure pleasure. Pisces is the sign of love itself. They are so romantic and want satin sheets and candles, poetry and a full moon. Music also gets them in the mood. One of their least appetizing traits is their ability to become very, very jealous. Sometimes they are so scared of losing the fairy-tale romance that they ruin the happy ending themselves. FAVE POSITION Pisces is all about Oral affections! BEST SEX TOY A copy of the Kama Sutra, since your fish is into almost anything PISCES MALE IN BED He is romantic and has the reputation of being a womanizer. The girlfriend of a Piscean man should keep her eye on the ball as he can be a bit flighty.But he does make an excellent lover. He's from the old school that sex should be an almost out of body experience, and if he's showering his attentions on you, you're in for a hell of a good ride! PISCES FEMALE IN BED She needs romance. It's the very air that she breathes. She needs to be held gently and whispered sweet nothings to but when it comes to between the sheets action, she's never happy doing the same ol', same ol' when she knows there are more exciting options at hand. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON PISCES The Pisces Zesty-zone is their feet! If you want to make Pisces your Love Slave, start with a warm, scented footbath and soak their feet for 10 minutes. Then sit in front of them, cross-legged, and rub their feet firmly through the water. Use kneading motions that run from their ankles to the tips of their toes. After 5 minutes, get a scrub brush and clean their tootsies with lots of TLC, dry them off and lightly massage peppermint oil all over their feet, paying close attention to between their toes. Pisces REALLY gets off on this! Once oiled up, gently kiss each toe, one by one. Then let your tongue take over and you're in baby!!! ARIES March 21-April 20 Ruling Planet: MARS The bonk now/think later God of War, aggression and action! Sexually, Aries is an explosion waiting to happen! The excitement is often in the chase more than the actual conquest though and while they may appear to want to dominate, they do not want a submissive partner. Routine brings boredom to sex for Aries, so if you're only comfortable with the missionary position, go for another sign, but if you like forceful personalities and enjoy pretending you're a human Twistie, then you've found paradise with an Aries. FAVE POSITION Always on top and always in charge BEST SEX TOY Handcuffs! Like I said, Aries likes to take charge! ARIES MALE IN BED The Aries male is loud, domineering and 100% stud! He's from the bump n grind school of lovemaking so if you're looking for romantic dinners by candlelight and long walks on the beach, keep looking! He's the original 5-minute man so if you're turned on by ultra-macho grunt-and-groaning types, you've just found your ticket to heaven! He's not prone to cheat unless you bore him in bed and he likes sex fast and furious baby! ARIES FEMALE IN BED She views sex as more of a physical act than something from a soppy romance novel. If you're a bored exec and want to find out what it's like to be treated like a piece of meat, then go for a one night stand with an Aries chick. She'll be gone before you wake up and may not remember your name the next time you meet. She's got a touch of KINK to her personality so don't get freaked out when she talks dirty or puts you over her knee for a spanking. She's all woman, but are you man enough to handle her? THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON ARIES If you want to seduce an Aries, running your fingers through their hair is an awesome starting point! And licking and nibbling around their face or neck will get them going too! Just be careful to keep your saliva at bay. Drool is not cool! TAURUS April 21 - May 21 Ruling Planet: VENUS The Goddess in charge of love, beauty and sex Taureans are ahead of the game when it comes to love coz they are ruled by VENUS, the planet of Love! Taurus has all the qualities a lover desires, including sensuality, loyalty and faithfulness.When a typical Taurus makes love, it's the most physical and natural pleasure in the world. They believe the romantic approach to sex almost always pays off so they will happily cook dinner, buyflowers, and light candles for someone they wanna bang. They don't like to rush things and take everything, including sex, slowly. FAVE POSITION The one Taurus enjoys most is the Missionary. Some may say this is so unadventurous, but Taurus is very practical and this is the most comfortable. BEST SEX TOY A battery powered "erotic massager" TAURUS MALE IN BED The Taurean man needs a woman who will want to stay home to eat and make love. He can be stubborn and is known to sulk like a little boy, but he LOVES making up!! (Rrrrow!) He likes to take things slow and gently and can last for hours, always waiting for HER to finish before rolling over to sleep. TAURUS FEMALE IN BED She is great at back massages and sex in general. She makes an art of lovemaking.Just kissing her can bring some men to the big "O". Her touch is gentle and tender, it excites and caresses and when in the mood, she too can go for hours at a time, days on end. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON TAURUS There's nothing Taurus enjoys more than having their neck kissed and their earlobes nibbled.Light, feathery caresses up and down the neck followed by gentle licks, no biting, will make a female writhe with delight and a male stand at attention within seconds. GEMINI May 22 - June 21 Ruling Planet: MERCURY The swiftest God in the skies, who also happens to be in charge of ultr-extreme raunchy talk Talking about sex is Gemini's favourite hobby and doing it comes a close second.Gemini's love flirting and lap up attention from the opposite sex, but sometimes that's all they're looking for.They need a lot of variety when it comes to sex - dirty weekends away, a quickie in a shop doorway, serious groping under the table at a fancy restaurant. A lot of Gemini's are bisexual too and can often be drawn to those of the same sex. FAVE POSITION As long as it's different every time, they're not fussy, but if they must choose, it's that naughty number right after 68, since they can come up for air if they need to. BEST SEX TOY Any illustrated book about kinky sex, so Gemini can pick up some wild, new ideas GEMINI MALE IN BED He likes to give AND receive and can be quite inventive. He's a lights on, in front of the mirror kinda guy and if you make a few subtle noises and talk a wee bit dirty, he'll be very happy. GEMINI FEMALE IN BED She is more interested in IQ than private parts. If she can't respect the intellect, then satisfaction is not possiblefor her. She may sleep around forever and never find her true love and she is not the most faithful of the signs. She likes sex on the run, in an airplane toilet, in the storeroom at work, in the backseat of a car.... THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON GEMINI Focus on the shoulders, arms and legs of a Gemini and you're headed for the good books. They love a good massage and their hands are so sensitive that even having their fingernails played with sends shivers up their spine! Kiss up and down each of your Gemini's arms, sneak in a few licks, nips and nibbles. If you get one or two yelps, then you know you're doing something right.then, move onto the fingers, slowly kiss, lick, nip and nibble each fingertip, then pull out the killer move - suck on each finger, slowly, as if it's a lollipop. I'll almost offer a money back guarantee on this one working! CANCER June 22 - July 23 Ruling Planet: THE MOON Which isn't a planet at all but the satellite responsible for this water sign's many mood swings! Love and sex go together for Cancer. They need to feel secure in love before they can relax in sex and Cancer often feels a little bit guilty after doing the deed because they usually associate sex with babies, especially the women, who either get pregnant at the drop of a hat or take longer than usual. All Cancers WANT to be parents!Cancers become sexually excited when they feel secure. They are turned on by home cooked meals and partners who love kids. In so many ways, Cancer is the dream partner! FAVE POSITION Any position that's comfortable and involves Cancer lying flat on their back with all their sensitive areas exposed! BEST SEX TOY A drink or joint that will relax the overly-cautious crab! CANCER MALE IN BED He is a sensitive lover and will put his partner's needs before his own. He has a tenderness about him that drives women wild!If the Cancer guy decides he's in it for the long haul, he'll do whatever it takes to keep his lover happy in and out of the bedroom. Oh, and he's a BREAST man!! CANCER FEMALE IN BED She oozes sexiness and is born to mate!! Compliments and kissing will win her over, so as you're nibbling on her ear, whisper "you're so beautiful" to get her quivering. Perhaps the Vincent (Big Brother) growl would work on a Cancer woman? THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON CANCER Concentrate on the breasts and pecs of Cancer to really get them going.Start by kissing and brushing up against them. Licking the Cancer female's nipple through her top will excite her, but don't 'dive right in' coz you're likely to scare her.It's the complete opposite for the Cancer male who will LOVE it if you get straight to the point. Squeeze his pecs and bite his bod and you'll have him bouncing off the walls in no time! LEO July 24 - August 23 Ruling Planet: THE SUN Which isn't a planet at all, but a star, and just like Leo's opinion of themselves, it's the centre of our solar system! Leos can be very 'into themselves' when they bonk. It's not that they don't make their partner feel special, it's just that they often forget about them as they secretlyhigh-five themselves for scoring again! Leo does actually want more from a partner than just sex though. Leo wants love and friendship too. They can be very romantic, but when they get into bed, it's not an experience they're about to have, it's a show! They like to perform... and they take requests! "Doing it" is the ultimate stress buster for Leo and they are pretty damn good at it, but they need constant praise for their outstanding performance. FAVE POSITION Receiving 'oral affections', since Leo is all about getting serviced! BEST SEX TOY A camera, or a game of Strip Poker will get the cat purring... or perhaps you can use them both together! LEO MALE IN BED You are the King of the Jungle and expect to be treated that way! You are a good lover because you don't like to fail at anything. You are sexy and have an aura of sexiness that is difficult to deny. But, you will let anyone adore you, so your partner has to make the effort or you will pad off to your next Lioness!! LEO FEMALE IN BED You are elegant and sexy without even trying. Men love you and women want to be you. You like to play cat and mouse with men and command respect. In bed, you are a real panther and can scare the pants off most men. You adore raw sex, so your partner should go with you and enjoy it. You're a once in a lifetime experience! THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON LEO A Leo's 'moan zone' is his or her back. First of all, ask your Leo to roll onto his/her tummy. Start with a gentle scratch that runs from the top of the ass to the base of the skull. I'm not talking about tender tickles or a tantalizing tease - I mean a REAL back scratch, coz if there's one thing cats love, it's a scratch! After a minute or so, get out the massage oil and spill it into a snakey pattern on Leo's back. Then rub all over. Keep doing this until you know Leo is ready to roll over. If they start falling asleep, give them a gentle prod in a delicate place! Once Leo is ready to roll over, don't let them! Leo will be excited by your control. YOU decide when it's time to 'flip your feline' over and get into the good stuff! VIRGO August 24 - September 23 Ruling Planet: Mercury The God in charge of intellect and speed... but don't worry because Virgo likes to take their time in the sack!! Virgos have two sides to their personality. The Virgin and the Vixen. They may want you to THINK they are all sweet and virginal, but they are definitely NOT!However, Virgos are looking for a long term partner, not a one night stand or an affair! They tend to seduce with finesse, charm and sublety so you may not even realize you're being lured by a Virgo!! Once Virgo has been in a relationship for awhile, they get engrossed in housework and things like that, which can cause a serious dip in libido. Do NOT let this happen! They are definitely more of a "can we cuddle instead" sign that a 'let's get it on!' one when committed. FAVE POSITION Almost anything, as long as it involves eye contact! BEST SEX TOY It's more of a game. Write down five wild sex acts and put them in a bowl. Get Virgo to pick one out at random, and then do what you're told!! Virgo LOVES spontaneous sexuality! VIRGO MALE IN BED You can be quite boring at times because you have set views on how a woman should be. You don't mean to criticize or offend, but your perfectionist ways may drive your lover loopy! You DO have some kinky ideas though, but it is difficult to get to the bottom of your passion! You are a creature of habit, so if your lover can get u into the habit of sleeping with her, who knows what might happen? VIRGO FEMALE IN BED You are hardworking and careful about your appearance, but you really do fantasize about getting down and dirty! You are a secret romantic and crave the perfect lover. Since the perfect lover doesn't exist, you'll take what you can get! You are quite insecure and need a partner who will adore you. You have strong passion beneath that practical exterior and are just waiting for someone to unearth it! THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON VIRGO Virgo's have a VERY sexually sensitive tummy!! If you wanna make them putty in your hands, stroke, lick and kiss their stomach!! The area from the bellybutton DOWN! Once you have them squirming, you can have anything you want!! Just remember to keep one hand on their tummy at all times!! LIBRA September 24 - October 23 Ruling Planet: Venus - The planet in charge of beauty, love peace, and stirring sensuality Libra is one of the sexiest signs in the zodiac, but if Libra can't get what they want from one lover, they will opt for two! They are notorious for having double standards in that situation too. They'll look you in the eye and say "never cheat on me, coz I would never do it to you", even when they have a hot night of passion planned with someone else! Librans are more turned on 'giving' than 'receiving'. They have a big heart and are the least selfish sign of the Zodiac. Libras are not very open about their thoughts or fantasies. They'd rather say nothing than tell the truth and offend or embarrass you. In bed, it takes a while for them to be comfortable enough to tell you exactly what they want. FAVE POSITION As long as they are lying down, they're happy! BEST SEX TOY K.Y. Jelly. I will say no more! LIBRA MALE IN BED The Libra man sees sex as an exciting adventure and he'd be very keen to do it in kinky places like a restaurant toilet! He likes being a bad boy if there's a chance he might get caught. He'll try out any fantasy you have, but whether or not you can keep a tight hold on his heart remains to be seen. However, he can be a bit of a pushover, and is perfect husband material, and he'd prefer his lover to take the lead. He is romantic and considerate! LIBRA FEMALE IN BED The only thing that separates Libra men and women is what's between their legs!Libra girl wants a strong man who understands that she needs her individuality and freedom. She is turned off by burping, farting, and bad breath. Good personal hygiene is crucial if you want to get to 2nd base.Librans are very good at lying to get their own way. When your Libra girl groans in bed, look into her eyes to make sure she's not 'faking it'. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON LIBRA Libra's Love Zone is their lower back and butt, so please, squeeze and pat your Libra's butt whenever you get a chance. When you're kissing, reach under his or her top and stroke the lower part of their back, starting in the middle and working your way down to their butt. Take your time and be gentle! To really drive your Libra wild? Have you ever heard of the term 'Rimming'???Does it surprise you that a high percentage of Libras are gay? SCORPIO October 24 - November 22 Ruling Planet: PLUTO, The Roman God of the dead, beginnings and endings. Which basically means that Scorpios add novel differences to any relationship. Scorpios are very possessive. They will tense up if you even LOOK at another hottie across the room.But they can be relied on to always be there for you if you need them. You may never really know what your Scorpio is thinking though, because to them, Knowledge is power and they are very good at putting on a straight face to cover up any emotion they are feeling.Scorpios love sex. The dirtier, the better. Get them excited by revealing your filthiest fantasy and offering to act it out. FAVE POSITION: Anything, as long as it involves dominating your ass. BEST SEX TOY: Ben Wah Balls for the girls, and a Riding Crop for the boys SCORPIO MALE IN BED His sexuality is so strong, it will make you dizzy!! If you are lucky enough to be with a Scorpio boy,you will always be satisfied!! There's a rumour that the Scorpio man is the most skilled in bed. It's as true as a black man has a giant wang!!! Most are pretty good!! The only thing you don't wanna do is piss him off. Every little thing u do that he doesn't like, he will file away in his little mental rolodex. Piss him off one too many times, and he will wreak his revenge!!! SCORPIO FEMALE IN BED She may look like a quiet, shy girl, but in bed she is NOT! She is a wildly passionate woman, who is DYNAMO is the bedroom.Just don't piss her off either, coz she can more vengeful than a Scorpio man, and she has no problem causing a scene! Don't talk about other women, or play hard to get, because she will get u back, and it's a game of one-upmanship you will never win. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON SCORPIO Since this is one of the horniest signs, it makes sense that their moan zone is between their legs! Then again, their big head (or their mind) is just as easy to turn on. Talking dirty and teasing your Scorpio will get them ready and randy in a flash!! Without getting too graphic, the magic words for today are RUB, RUB, RUB. SAGITTARIUS November 23 - December 22 Ruling Planet: JUPITER, God of money, luck and good times between the sheets. Sagos are playful, laid back and oh-so fun to party with. They are wild, and may be the BADDEST party people you ever meet! One thing to be wary of is that Sagos like to talk BULLSHIT! Don't believe everything they tell you because they are kings at 'talking it up'.Sagos probably make better friends than lovers, but if you happen to score a one-nighter with them,be prepared to do stuff you've NEVER done before!Sagos are spontaneous and adventurous and most have probably been caught doing it somewhere public. When they find the right lover, they will give it 100% as long as the commitment is returned. FAVE POSITION: They are up for anything. Quality AND Quantity. BEST SEX TOY: Handwrite a sexual fantasy of yours and leave it on their pillow. You'll be surprised at what happens next! SAGITTARIAN MALE IN BED Even if he's fat, balding and middle aged, he can still pull the chicks. It's his love and pursuit of happiness that draws the babes to him. Think "Austin Powers" baby, yeah! He is a wee bit selfish though, so be prepared for an "all about me" attitude in the sack. He LOVES doing it, and if you start holding out on him, he's likely to get it somewhere else.He will either amaze his partner with his sexual expertise or be absolute trash in bed! SAGITTARIAN FEMALE IN BED The Sago woman is a handful! She changes her mind more often than she shaves her armpits, is blunt, oversensitive and takes offense at the strangest things. She's adventurous in the bedroom and also has no problems cheating if her needs are not fulfilled. But can u handle her open-minded sexuality?She will hide her emotions from you, but don't make the mistake of hiding yours from her. She's looking for someone she can trust 100%, but is quite hypocritical since she can be very untrustworthy herself. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON SAGITTARIUS Hips and thighs are extremely sensual for a Sago, so concentrate on massaging and stroking that area and the place in between! Don't be afraid to ask your Sago if you're doing it right coz they would LOVE to tell you! The best way to get them going is to grope their inner thigh in a public place! CAPRICORN December 23 - January 20 Ruling Planet: SATURN - The God who oversees time, discipline and dedication, which means Capricorn can go the distance - with major staying power - in bed and beyond!! Capricorns are very good at hiding their emotions, so it's often hard to tell when they are truly, deeply in love. If you have a load of cash, you can almost bet on admiration from a Capricorn because the goat is turned on by money. Like I said before, Capricorn has great sexual stamina and the ability to go all night if they want to! FAVE POSITION: Spooning! Goat boys and girls love to take, or be taken from behind. BEST SEX TOY: An office desk to "bond" on, or an erotic video will loosen up the randy goat. CAPRICORN MALE IN BED Imagination isn't a strong suit for Capricorn so don't expect acrobatics in the sack. Sex with him could possibly be as boring as watching paint dry and he tends to be a little bit selfish in that area too.BUT you can definitely count on him to be faithful if he has committed to you. CAPRICORN FEMALE IN BED She is strong and confident and likes to run the show! She's a tough nut to crack but once inside her shell, she's as sweet as caramel. Her fave position may be missionary, but she seeks excitement in new locations, so experiment with different venues to keep it interesting. THE BEST WAY TO TURN ON CAPRICORN Capricorns are the most anal signs of the zodiac, so buttering them up will take a bit of effort. Believe it or not, their erotic area is the knees! Lightly stroke their legs, paying close attention to the knee region. Licking, kissing, and nibbling the area will get them squirming ok you opened it and read it so guess what u gotta repost it ...
Is this any good? Lorena, I opened my eyes and looked around me. Something was wrong. My head split in pain as the world spun. Each individual rectangle that covered the walls was doubled on top of itself in my blurred vision. Rectangles. I tried to force myself to focus on an individual rectangle, begging the room to stay still. But the room continued to spin, spiraling into unconscious darkness. … Why can I never finish a stupid Sudoku? I mean, it should have been simple enough, the numbers one through nine in every row, column, and box with no repeats. But it wasn’t simple enough. Nothing ever was in calculus. Especially when you were a junior at sixteen, but that’s what I got for being “smart”. But this had nothing to do with calculus, so why was Mrs. Brassington making us do it? Her distaste for me was almost tangible as she looked down for an awkward moment over my shoulder. Then, in sudden realization of an error unapparent to me, her lips curled into a smile. “You have two three’s in this column.” She coughed, placing a gnarled finger on my paper. Did she ever clip her nails? Her voice was filled with triumph over my failure. Is it legal for a teacher to want you to fail? Ouch. My head was throbbing as I tried to fight my way through the maze of boxes and columns. Finally, the bell rang and released me from my numbered prison. Whoever thought that first period calculus was an ok thing was defiantly on something. I reached into my bag and grabbed an aspirin. It had become a daily post-calculus ritual. I never did think that they did anything, but it was the only help the doctor offered for my headaches. Actually, that trip to the doctor had been the first responsible thing that my dad had done for me sense my moving in with him three weeks ago. He wasn’t the most responsible of men, especially seeing as how he left when I was seven. That was the thing, it hurt bad enough when your dad just up and left, but it was even worse when you could remember the day that he was simply gone. It was one of those things that was hard to forget. What made it even worse was that as much as I loved my mom, I couldn’t stand that she wouldn’t divorce him afterward. She said that she loved him, that she knew he would come back. Well she was right, he did. Not that she was alive to see the day. So there I was, stuck on the outskirts of Denver with first period calculus, a killer headache, and prescription aspirin that did squat. “Lorena?” I cringed. Yet another reason I wasn’t my dad’s biggest fan. Who came up with a name like Lorena? If he was going to go with something long and stuffy that should have died with the corset, couldn’t he have picked something more regal? Like Victoria or Elizabeth? Not that I wanted to be an English queen or anything, but still… Lorena? When I was eleven, I vowed to myself that I would change my name the moment I turned eighteen. But I couldn’t now, Mom had loved it. She said it made me sound intelligent, classy, and confident. I always thought it made me sound like a saint come back from the dead. “Uh, it’s Lorie.” I said, realizing what an awkward pause I had taken while contemplating my passionate dislike for my name. I swallowed the two aspirin dry, put the half-empty bottle back in my bag, and turned around to see who the voice belonged to. Immediately I wished I hadn’t. It was Roman, Roman… well I didn’t know his last name. However, I did know that this was not good and I desperately wanted to walk away. The poor guy had been hitting on me since my first day. Not that he wasn’t cute or anything, I just didn’t like him. He was just too… happy. He always had this goofy smile on his face. Even after first period calculus. Who smiles after first period calculus? On top of that, I think he actually showered in Old Spice. You could smell him from five feet away. I had always thought that Old Spice smelled like the air freshener in the grocery store bathroom in back in Rhode Island. That part of it made me miss my mom and our old apartment even more than I already did. The rest of it just made me nauseous. “I know I know, but I like Lorena. It’s pretty.” His face split open into his ridiculously annoying smile. He pushed his florescent blonde hair out of his face, forcing me to look into his sincere green eyes. Was I missing something? He seemed especially ecstatic today… if that was even possible. “Oh, hey Roman.” Tried to match his excitement and failed pathetically. “What’s up?” and he sounded like he was actually interested. I was so distracted by that smile it took me longer than it should have to respond. He probably thought I was impaired or something. “My head hurts.” Why did I say that? I should have just said fine. It was curt and to the point with little room for comment. I had to suffocate this conversation before it happened. “I know, Mrs. Brassington is killer.” Too late. “Yup.” There, that reply was a lot better than the last one. Hopefully if I stuck with one-word sentences from here on out, he would run out of things to say soon. “So I was wondering,” My whole body tensed at his phrase. Roman couldn’t be asking me out could he? I couldn’t bare the thought of being the one who broke the happy kid. I couldn’t shoot down that innocent face. But there was no way I could last an entire evening with this guy either. I squirmed, an evening with Roman; the thought was painful. What was I going to say? Would he buy it if I to pretended to pass out right here? Wait, then everyone would think that I passed out because I couldn’t believe that he had asked me. I would rather have gone on the date than have every body think that. My mind flashed through images of us having diner, going to a movie movie, bowling… maybe passing out was a good plan. I looked up at Roman ready to hear the unthinkable question. For some reason he looked weird. I starred at his face in confusion. Why did he look so odd? I started to scan from top to bottom, trying to find an abnormality. Finally, I realized that I couldn’t see his teeth and his smile had faded into a grin. That was a first. But why wasn’t he smiling anymore? Then suddenly it dawned on me that he was searching my face, waiting for me to say something. He had already asked me and I didn’t hear him in my plan for escape. “Oh. Um, I’m really sorry Roman but I’m busy that night. I’m gonna have to pass.” I really hoped that he hadn’t said ‘tonight’ or ‘sometime’ because then my reply would have sounded really awkward. I looked into his eyes trying to see if I should have been more harsh instead of making him think that he even had a chance. But he just looked confused. Not hurt confused, but like he really didn’t understand. What an ego. Could he not see that I just wasn’t interested? After a moment of him staring at me, waiting for me to explain or take it back he finally said, “Um… That’s ok. I can just get the notes from Kelsey then. But thanks.” He flashed his pearly whites one more time then walked away. Wait. Notes? Oh no. Had Roman had been absent the day before? I couldn’t remember. I didn’t remember him sitting next to me. But I would usually purposely avoid him. I stood, staring at the place where Roman had been. Why had I been so convinced he was asking me out? Maybe he hadn’t been hitting on me. Maybe he was just nice. Nobody was that nice just to be nice were they? It was strangely quiet. Looking around myself I realized the hall was empty. Had the bell rang? I had been ready to throw myself to the floor to avoid a date I wasn’t even being asked on, when I could have just said I needed to get to class. For a long moment I just let it sink in what a perpetual idiot I was. “Where are you supposed to be?” The voice made me jump, looking toward it’s source there was a teacher standing next to me. Well, I had never seen him before, so I guess I couldn’t have really known he was a teacher. But de didn’t look like a traffic cop so teacher was a safe assumption. “Oh, Mr. Poland’s English. I looked at my watch to see that it was five minutes into the period. “Well, would love to just send you off,” Oh no. Was this guy actually going to do something? Jerk. “but we have rules here, and you are expected to be in class when the bell rings. So as much as I hate to do so, I’m goanna have to have to send you to the DAC.” Oh, the Disciplinary Assessment Center. Great. My first trip to the DAC was going to be for being late because I was dazed by not being asked out by a guy I didn’t like. I’d been hoping for something a little more cavalier. “Ok then.” I laced the words with extra distaste and mal-contempt. I turned and began to walk away, not even sure of where I was going. “Jerk.” “Excuse me?” Was that one out loud? Oops. “I didn’t say anything.” It sounded like a lie, even to me. But I couldn’t look at his face to see if he bought it. Then I suddenly remembered something about not making eye contact giving away that you’re a liar. I immediately looked into his eyes. They were a surprisingly bright hazel. If he wasn’t a teacher, (and a mean one at that) I might have thought he was pretty. “Oh I heard you.” He broke my concentration. I was immediately embarrassed with myself for thinking this man had pretty potential. What was he like thirty? No, he didn’t look that old, but he was a teacher so he couldn’t have been that young. Why did I care? I could already tell that today was going to be a series of perpetually idiotic events. “I guess I’ll be accompanying you on your trip to the DAC.” For some reason I was relieved that I wouldn’t have to ask for directions. Why couldn’t this have happened before calculus? I was missing English, one class I actually liked. I was supposed to give my speech on moral and ethical issues of today’s modern literature. Wait, why couldn’t this have just not happened? Yeah, that was a better wish to be making. Not that it mattered. The DAC was highly misnamed. It was in no way a ‘Center’ of any kind. It was a couple teachers behind a big desk and three folding chairs against the wall. There were also some of those desks with the big walls surrounding them. They always made me feel like I had leprosy or something to deserve that level of quarantine. Mr. … well, he had never said his name now had he? I decided that until I knew, he would be Mr. Hazel. (For Obvious reasons.) Mr. Hazel held out his hand, gesturing for me to go first. Inside the room there were two boys sitting in the folding chairs covered in black board chalk. They both had proud grins on their faces, and I was sure there was a really good story that accompanied them. “Well hello.” Said one of the teachers behind the gargantuan metal desk; she so tiny the thing nearly swallowed her whole. She had seemed really nice until she greeted Mr. Hazel. Her words were too bright and cheery for the situation at hand. It was like she was ridiculously pleased that he had come in with new blood. “Hello Mrs. Hart” Mr. Hazel’s reply was equally as cheery. Was I misunderstanding what DAC stood for? “So what have we here young lady?” She spoke the words as casually as if I come asking for help with my homework. Mr. Hazel told her of our short encounter in the hall, his voice no longer cherry, he sounded really mad actually. I wasn’t that rude was I? I realized that I had called the man a jerk, but I was still taken aback by his aggressive tone. “I see.” Mrs. Hart’s tone was nearly as scary as Mr. Hazel’s. So maybe I didn’t have the meaning of DAC confused. “Well, have a seat and I’ll call you up in a moment to decide what we should do about this.” “Thank you.” Mr. Hazel’s words were curt, and he was out of the room before I could even turn around. I walked over to the folding chairs and took the last empty seat. The chalk-covered boy sitting next to me sent a quick glance in my direction then turned to his friend and whispered. Quiet sinkers followed. “Tony, Michel, here are your passes.” The second teacher held up two pink slips of paper. The two boys looked at each other, took the passes, and were gone. I felt like I was five years old; sitting in chair by myself, waiting to be punished. After a few moments of numbly staring at the floor, my mind began to wander to what my father would say. This was not exactly going to bode well with him. The thought of him being angry with me, acting all parent-like made my blood boil. He can’t suddenly act all responsible, like he had any right at this point. He had missed his chance to be my dad; he didn’t get to start over just because Mom was gone. My eyes began to fill with tears as the rage began to boil over. “All right, come on up.” Mrs. Hart’s voice came from across the room. I stood up and began to walk, but suddenly I was on the floor. I was dazed with confusion and my entire left arm was screaming with the pain of an intense rug-burn. There was something on my legs. When I turned to see what it was, I found that I had taken the folding chair to the ground with me. I sat for a moment in utter shock, what happened? Mrs. Hart was at my side in a flash; her voice filled with appropriate concern. “Honey, are you ok? What happened?” She lifted the chair off of me and held my arm to help me up. “I’m fine.” My voice wasn’t as reassuring and fine as I had wanted it to be. “I guess I just tripped.” Ouch. Now my arm and my head hurt. “Are you sure? … Oh! are you crying?” Oh no. My tears had spilled over. But I was almost relieved that now I had a perfectly good excuse for them, so I played along. “Yeah, I’m sorry. It’s just my arm, but I’ll be ok.” I wiped my face with my good hand. She turned to look at my arm and her face twisted into an expression that had me concerned. “Oh you’re bleeding!” I twisted the back of my arm toward me to get a better look. The rug-burn had broken just enough skin to draw blood from my shoulder to my elbow. It did look kind of gruesome. Looking at the floor at where I had fallen, I could see a long, thin stain from the blood. I held back a chuckle as I thought how badly that stain would scare any first-time DAC’ers in the future. “Let’s get you to the nurse.” Mrs. Hart’s voice had a slight twinge of panic as she led me out into the hall. It was really awkward having a teacher escorting me. Were there always this many people walking around with hall passes? How embarrassing. I could feel my face turn red as we walked into the nurse’s office. I halted in the doorway; Mrs. Hart looked at me with confused eyes, and then pulled me all the way in. Not only was I bleeding allover myself and the floor, and being escorted by a teacher half my size, but who else would be having a chat with the school nurse then Mr. Hazel. He was holding a briefcase and a large coat like he was on his way out. He turned around to see who had entered and his face twisted awkwardly as he tried to hold back an amused smile. An amused smile that would have been far too cruel for the situation. “Gosh Betty, I didn’t want you to beat the poor girl.” His eyes flashed to mine and his smile broke loose. Jerk. “I know, I couldn’t help it.” Mrs. Hart commented sarcastically, she obviously wasn’t nearly as amused as he was. Suddenly my arm twitched under a new wave of pain. Looking to see what has caused it, I found myself staring into Nurse Hamilton’s eyes as she smiled apologetically and motioned for me to follow her into a nearby chair. She grabbed my right hand and placed it up against the toilet paper she had placed over my arm to keep me from bleeding allover her floor and walked across the room to grab some supplies. As I watched her search for whatever it was she wanted, I realized the room was oddly quiet. Mrs. Hart and Mr. Hazel were both staring at me. Mrs. Hart’s eyes were filled with concern as she watched, probably waiting to see my continued tears. I would have cried for her, to convince her that my tears were because of my arm, but no way would I give Mr. Hazel the satisfaction. Looking at him, his eyes were less than concerned, he seemed sickly amused with the irony. I could tell he wasn’t leaving any time soon. I mean, why would he want to miss this? Did I mention this guy was a jerk? Nurse Hamilton returned with a bundle of bandages and a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Wait, rubbing alcohol? Maybe I would cry. She pulled away the toilet paper and poured some of the rubbing alcohol onto a large cotton square that she had pulled out of her pile of bandages. She hesitated for a moment, looking at my face. I couldn’t look back, I didn’t want to see her do it. “This is going to sting a little.” A little? That was a cruel understatement. I turned away and closed my eyes. My entire arm contracted painfully as she rubbed the drenched square against the raw skin. It felt like my arm was on fire as she wiped away the blood and grabbed a new square after the first one became soiled. It took her five cotton squares to sufficiently clean the wound. My arm kept slowly oozing blood as she placed a large, thick piece of gauze over my arm and taped over and around it to seal it and secure it to my arm. By the time she was done, my entire upper arm was wrapped in medical tape. The entire time, Mr. Hazel and Mrs. Hart continued to watch in awed silence. When she finished, Nurse Hamilton said goodbye to me and Mrs. Hart and continued her conversation with Mr. Hazel. She never said his name. We got back to the DAC and I followed Mrs. Hart to the giant desk. “Well anyway,” She looked around her desk and tried to regain her disciplinary composure. “I’m goanna assign you three after school detentions to be served whenever you are available over the next two weeks, one Saturday detention which must be served this Saturday from nine to eleven, and thirty demerits. Wow, that seemed like an awful lot for being late to class and calling a teacher a jerk when he deserved it. Didn’t that little trip to the nurse’s office buy me anything? She gave me a slip to give for a “legal guardian” to sign, and a pass to English. All that and I hadn’t even missed an entire class period. I could tell it would be a long day. I walked into Mr. Poland’s room and all eyes were on me including Andréa’s, which was embarrassing because she was standing at the front of the room with a stack of index cards in her hands. Oh no, I had interrupted her speech. I handed my pass to Mr. Poland and made my way to my seat. I had though my embarrassment was over until I heard Mr. Poland’s booming brassy voice behind me. “Oh, someone’s been to the DAC this morning.” A simultaneous oooo filled the room. How annoying. Andréa finished her speech just as the bell rang and I nearly ran to my next class. I figured that with no pass or annoying teacher, no one would know about this morning and I could move on. I walked into economics and took my seat in the back right-hand corner of the room. “What happened to you?” Tyler sat down next to me was staring at my whale of a bandage. Oh yeah, there was that. “Oh. Imaginary date, evil teacher, DAC, and a rug-burn. Long story.” “A Flying-Star kind of day?” My whole body tingled at the thought. “Defiantly.” A bad day was always better after going to Flying-Star, a little café a short walk into town. Whenever either of us was having a major bad day, we would walk down to the Flying-Star, get caramel lattés and a poppy seed bagels, and talk about it. Whoever lost the “my day was the worst ever” bet, had to pay. Unless we were there to celebrate. If that was the case then we would both buy a hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and we would split a piece of key-lime pie. “Wow, it must be pretty bad if you’re already that desperate by third period.” Tyler smiled sympathetically, I was feeling better already. Tyler had been my best friend ever sense my first day when I dropped my books in the hall after calculus. Not only did he pick them up for me like a true gentleman, he also managed to get Roman to go away when he came over to see if I was ok and he walked me to all of my classes for the rest of the day and gave me a place to sit at lunch. He did all of this without parading me around like the new girl that I was. Nothing was ever awkward around him, and that first day of school was the first day that he took me to Flying-Star. He was tall enough that he made me feel like a girl when I stood next to him. Normally, I would tower over most everybody else at 5’10”. But he was about 6’2”, making him the perfect height in my book. His hair dark brown like mine, but his was much darker. So much darker that it was commonly mistaken for black, but I liked it how it was because it made his bright blue eyes shine like flood lights. “You don’t even know.” I sighed. He smiled again and I felt like the rest of the day could actually get better. Maybe it had just been a bad morning, that didn’t mean that the entire day had to be bad did it? Mrs. Derik walked in and placed her large grade book on the desk at the front of the room. The book seemed so huge when she was carrying it. The poor woman was only 5’6” in heels, combined her little voice and wild red hair she looked like a nymph. “Ok. Take everything off your desks so we can get started on the test.” The warm feelings Tyler had instilled into me hit the floor and shattered. I had no idea that there was a test today. “When did she say we had a test?!” I whispered in sheer panic to Tyler. “Yesterday at the beginning of class. Why did you think we spent the whole period reviewing?” He was looking at me like I was crazy, but in his voice I could tell he was equally panicked for me. He knew my grade in this class had been taking a nose dive the pass couple of weeks. “I was in the bathroom at the beginning of class! Why didn’t you tell me?” “I honestly thought you knew. Sorry. But hey, you were here for the review yesterday. You should do fine, calm down. Just do your best.” Wow. What an original statement. Besides, had I known that the review was for a test today, I might have paid a lot more attention. “No talking please the test is out.” I turned to face the front and found that the test was already sitting on my desk. I stared at the packet for a few moments, trying to remember what the test was even on. So maybe the whole day would be bad, I mean why would it stop with a trip to the nurse and unjust detention? Well, maybe I deserved the detention, but it was still a major down side. Was there an upside? I tried to think of anything good that had happened that morning; anything good that was going to happen. That just made me even more depressed. Suddenly, my desk shook. I jumped to see that Tyler had kicked the front leg of the desk to get me to start on the test. Oh, the test. I opened the booklet and read the first question… That was the hardest test I had ever taken in my entire life. By the time I finished, my head felt like it was being repeatedly bashed with a baseball bat, a baseball bat that was on fire. Tyler walked me out of the room never once taking his eyes off my face. When I finally looked back at him he looked concerned, that helped to know that he at least actually cared. The entire walk to Physics he never said a word. It was like he was in my head and could tell that the last thing I wanted was to talk right now. He just held the strap of the book bag draped over my shoulder and pulled my through the hall. He plowed through the crowds of talking teens with ease and followed the speed walkers who blazed their own trail through the mess. We walked into physics and looking at the front of the room and Tyler leaned over and whispered in my ear. “Sub today.” I was so glad that he had whispered the phrase; it was like he could see the pain that my head was in by the look on my face. At that thought I realized that he probably could. I consciously relaxed my face muscles which I then realized had been clenched into an uncomfortable frown. Tyler took me to my seat and sat down next to me. That wasn’t his usual seat, but no one ever sat in their normal seat when there was a substitute. I was grateful that Mrs. Wormington was out, because when she was gone she would usually just tell the sub to show us a movie, or give us busywork. Well, I was grateful until the sub started talking. “QUIET DOWN!” Why was the man yelling? Each word he shouted at the class brought my scull that much closer to shattering. “I’M MR. LEE. MRS. WORMINGTON HAS ASKED ME TO SHOW YOU A SHORT FILM AND THEN DISCUSS IT WITH YOU.” Tyler glanced at my and smiled wickedly. Was he laughing? How could he go from being so sweet to being so cruel? I wanted to be irritated but I could see why he would think it was funny. Plus, being irritated hurt my head too much. I reached into my bag and grabbed an aspirin. Tyler rolled his eyes as he watched my swallow the pills. He knew there was no point, but I still had to try. “I’M PASSING OUT A WORKSHEET TO FILL OUT AS YOU WATCH THE FILM. THIS WORKSHEET WILL BE GRADED SO DON’T JUST WRITE WHATEVER.” I think he was talking so loud so that he could hear himself. The guy was pretty old, and I could see that he had hearing aids in both ears. He put the tape into the VCR and I was relived that I wouldn’t have to listen to him yelling anymore. But it turned out that he wanted to hear the movie to. Ouch. The rest of the day was just as bad as the morning had been. After Physics, I managed to trip over myself in the hallway, I had forgotten my lunch and my French homework, I nearly killed a poor kid in my study hall when Mrs. Garrison asked me to pass her the dictionary and I dropped it on his head, and I accidentally sprayed my pants when I stopped at the water fountain. I had spent the last three periods of the day looking like I had peed in my pants. Tyler and I went to Flying-Star and of course, they were out of caramel flavoring and I had to get a vanilla latte. A vanilla latte that Tyler paid for. We talked for about an hour and a half, Tyler made it a little better but I was still raw from the long day. On top of that, my dad wasn’t nearly as good at reading me as Tyler was. He walked me home and I went in through the front door that led into a small family room which was connected to an even smaller kitchen. The kitchen was connected to the living room, which was also connected to the family room. I dropped my bag on the floor even though I knew I had a ridiculous amount of homework. I just needed a little more time to relax off the long day. As I stepped into the living room, I could hear my dad coming down the stairs on the opposite side of the kitchen. “Lorena?” Ugh. I was completely convinced that at this point he was only calling me that to bother me. He knew I hated my name. “Dad. Please call me Lorie.” He walked into the living room and stopped in front of me. He looked like he was surprised to see me. Why would he be surprised to see me? It’s not like anyone else ever came around. “I know. I know. Lorie.” he rolled his eyes as if the sound of the word disgusted him. I walked into the kitchen and sat down. “What time are you leaving for work?” I laid my head on the table and let the cold of the wood seep into my hot, flustered cheek. I had never thought that a table could feel so nice, I wasn’t sure that I would ever be able to move from that spot. “In about an hour.” He just stared at me. Couldn’t he tell that I wanted him to go away? How annoying. He was just standing over me, staring down at me. Apparently, he wanted me to say more. “Uh, what’s for dinner?” He frowned as if the question offended him. Well, what did he want? He wanted me to keep talking and I wanted to know what was for dinner. Everybody wins. He sighed and massaged his forehead as if he had forgotten all about dinner. Wow. My dad, who was responsible for taking care of me, for making sure I was ok and fed and stuff, had forgotten about dinner. I blinked a couple of times in bewildered amazement of how completely melodramatic that thought had been. I really needed some sleep. Now. Maybe I would just skip the dinner that dad had forgotten about and just go to bed. Yeah. That though sounded way better than any food would have been. “Uh, you can order some pizza.” Really? Cause after a long, terrible day I really could have gone for some comforting soup. But how could he have known that? Wait, but didn’t I just decide to veto dinner all together? Yep. Sleep was crucial. He rubbed his hands together and blew like he was cold. Was he just being spastic? Cause it was like sixty degrees outside. I mean it was hardly beach going weather but still, in no way hand rubbing temperature. There was a thud upstairs. I looked up instinctively. Everything went still and I looked back to Dad. His eyes were filled with panic, but he kept going as if he had never heard it. “Or, maybe some Chinese if you want.” How could he not have heard that? It sounded like a… did he say Chinese? Egg drop soup, crab rangoon, orange chicken, the thought made my mouth water. “Sure.” I said trying to sound as indifferent as humanly possible. Forget going straight to bed, I was going to have me some Asian cuisine. Now all I needed was my fluffy fleece pajama pants, my orange feather pillow, and the Princess Bride. (Because we all know that it is the movie of every occasion.) I stood up, brushed off my pants, and turned to the stairs on the other side of the kitchen. “What are doing?” He said it so fast it made me jump. “I’m goanna go change.” Since hen did he care? I stared at him for a moment and watched him think of a response. What exactly was his problem today? “Why?” Why? Did my dad just ask me why I was going to change after school? Didn’t I change every day after school? I finally decided that there was defiantly something wrong with him today. “Because I always change after school Dad. What is your problem?” He automatically stood taller like it was an authoritative reflex. It was almost like he wanted to argue with me. This startled me. He was normally so passive. “You’re the one with the problem Lorena. I just wanted to know what you were doing. I don’t think that that’s too much to ask.” He said the words as if he had the right to know everything that I ever did; Like he could just demand anything of me at anytime just because he was my father. I could feel the tears of rage filling my eyes again. “Well I think that you should just back off. I was just going upstairs. It’s not like you’ve ever cared about what I did before.” I laced the words with suggestion. Judging by the look on his face, he could tell that I meant more than just going upstairs. He knew that I was talking about the fact that he left me. That I had spent the last nine years living perfectly fine without him. He slouched slightly; I hadn’t thought that it would hurt him that much. There was another thud at the top of the stairs. The sound made Dad jump and the panic refilled his eyes. Looking toward the sound, there was a figure at the top of the stairs. The figure froze momentarily, and then moved slowly down the stairs. As it stepped into the light, I found myself staring at Mr. Hazel. David, A wave of guilt swept over me. I shouldn’t have knocked her out like that. I stared at her in remorse. She was so beautiful. This was all my fault. The tears rose in my eyes as I softly whispered “I’m sorry.” I finally tore my eyes away and slammed the large metal door. I had to finish this. I bounded down the hall toward the one who started this. I couldn’t let him get away. I didn’t know what I would do when I caught him, but I ran after him anyway. … “Have a good day.” I called after her as she ran out the door to catch the bus. I didn’t think that she had heard me, but it felt good to know that I had at least tried. I stood in silence as I watched her get on the bus. She looked so much like Emma. I took a long breath as the sadness hit. Emma… I missed her more than anything. I watched the bus disappear around the corner and turned toward the kitchen. I had so much to do today, but none of it seemed to matter anymore, I just wanted to stay home. I wanted Lorena to get back from school. I knew that she hated me, not that she didn’t have the right, but it still felt nice to have her around. She was so much like her mom it was uncanny, and I really wanted to make it right with her. I owed her that much. The phone rang and I jumped, suddenly ripped from my day dream. I crossed the kitchen and picked up the receiver. “Hello.” My voice cracked. “David?” The other voice didn’t sound familiar at all, but he obviously knew who I was so I played along. “Hey.” “It’s been too long my friend. I know your daughter Katrina was moving in with you and everything but I didn’t know that you were disappearing all together.” “Lorena.” I said it more sharply than I meant to. “What?” The guy on the other end seemed put out. “My daughter’s name is Lorena.” I was more friendly this time. “Oh yeah. Sorry Dave. Well listen,” The gears in my head finally clicked. Only one person ever called me Dave. It was Trevor McLean. I was instantly relieved that I wouldn’t have to ask who I was talking to and I was automatically more interested in what he was saying. “We’ve kind of got a problem. Do you think I could come over?” A problem? We? “Sure. I’m not doing anything today so come whenever.” “Thanks. I’ll be there in like two hours ok?” He sounded worried. That didn’t help. “K. Later.” The other line went dead and I put down the receiver. I stood in the kitchen in silence for longer than I thought possible for me to stand still. What to do now? A problem? I hadn’t talked to Trevor since Lorena had moved in, but still, I had thought everything was fine. What bothered me the most was that he said “we” like it was my problem to. No, it had only been because he wanted me to help him like he had done so many times for me. Like when Emma died, had and I needed money. Emma died. The thought hurt. It was hard to think that she was gone, I had made myself believe that she was off somewhere else like she had always been. That I was only missing her like I always had when she was still around. But denial did nothing for anyone now. What made it even worse was that she didn’t even care to leave me anything. Not that I was that selfish, wanting to benefit from her demise. It was just that she hadn’t even bothered to write a will, she didn’t even bother to make sure that Lorena would be ok. It was like she was punishing me from beyond the grave, like she wanted me to pay for what had done. If only she knew how badly I wanted to hold her all those years. If only it would have mattered if she did. The door bell rand and I jumped. Hadn’t he said he would be coming in two hours? I looked at the clock to see it was almost ten o’clock. So much for getting anything done. “Come on in Trev!” I shouted unmoving. The door opened and a cold gust of air blew through the house. I heard the door slam and the sound of Trevor’s clunky boots echoed through the hall. “Dave?” He walked into the kitchen and looked at me in surprise. “Why are you just sitting there?” I didn’t even know myself. “Oh, um nothing. What’s going on?” He walked around to the other side of the table and sat, laying his briefcase on the floor next to him. He took off his coat and look at me with a frantic expression. “Ok. You remember that money I lent you when Lorena moved in?” Of course I remembered, I needed it so badly and he just gave it to me no problem. “Sure I do. What about it?” Trevor’s face twisted uncomfortably. This worried me more than anything; Trevor was rarely uncomfortable telling me things. “Well, I…” He paused, as if he didn’t want to finish his sentence. He took a deep breath and forced himself to continue. “I need it back.” What? Since when is it ok to ask for a gift back? This was not Trevor. My head throbbed in confusion as I tried to make sense of his request. Looking back at him I could see he was nervously awaiting my response. Maybe he knew how obtuse it sounded. “Why?” Was all I could manage. He frowned uncomfortably and was curt. “I just need it Dave! How hard is that to understand? It’s my money, and I need it!” I was shocked by his sudden outburst. I stared at him. After a few moments the stare melted into a glare. “You know I don’t have it.” His eyes widened in panic, then suddenly narrowed in rage. “What do you mean you don’t have it?!” “What I mean is that I didn’t ask you for money so I could stick it in a jar for a while. It’s gone. Besides, I thought we agreed that I could pay you back in a year.” He sighed, all the rage had faded. He placed his elbows on the table and held his head in his hands. After a minute of watching him shake his head in dismay, I couldn’t stand the confusion any more. “What’s going on Trev?” I tried to sound understanding, but the words sounded as frustrated as I felt. He let his head fall back, then sat up and looked at me. “That wasn’t my money Dave.” My stomach lurched. I swallowed hard, trying to force it back down. Trevor wouldn’t give me money that wasn’t his. Never. This had to be a dream. A nightmare. I took a breath and decided not to freak out and just get some answers. “What are you talking about Trevor?” His face twisted painfully as he tried to think of a way to explain. “I just need the money back.” No way was he going to as me to come up with $12,000 that he gave me in good confidence without giving me an explanation. “K. I’m goanna need you to elaborate.”
D' you like the revised first chapter of my book? Chapter 1: My life was hurt badly. I had scars. These scars were not visible. It was as if I was under a contract that didn’t allow me to live life the way I wanted. Sunday Afternoon I sat on the only rock, spilling my only deepest memories. Some of those memories were from when I was 5. That was my darkest year and I wanted to block that out my mind for years to come. Others were from when I went to the funeral. In my whole life I never felt the way I did, until I came to the rock at the Salty Brine Beach. The rock I always came to was surrounded by, what seemed like, millions of rocks. Salty Brine Beach, located at the end of the town of Grobuckle, was often quiet. A few people often came, hauling there big bags full of beach toys and chairs. This one rock seemed to know me, because every time I approached it, it shined. As I looked up, the sun shone clearly on the rock. This rock was the only thing I knew of, where I could go and spill through thoughts, memories, and dreams. The sun reflected off of the sapphire water, making the water more beautiful than ever. The sea, in Galilee, the next town over from Grobuckle, was a destination for all fishermen. I looked out into the sea and saw the fishing boats in the distance. Every now and then a big fishing would ride by with commercial fishermen boasting about all the fish they had caught. As I walked down the dark, desolate streets of Grobuckle, It was suddenly not sunny anymore. The sun hid itself behind the grayest of clouds. I suspected it was due to rain any second. I trotted to my house and greeted my grandma likes usual. My grandma has been my caretaker since I was 5; that’s when my mother and father passed away in a hurricane over in Cancun. Now it’s just me and my grandma and 50 dollars a week. We get by, but sometimes it’s tough. Some weeks we don’t have enough food. Other weeks we do. I cry. It hurts me when mother’s day and father’s day come around. In school we have to make cards for father’s day and mother’s day. “My father and mother pass some years ago,” I’d tell them. I and my grandma talked over some cookies and hot brewed tea. She was a blast to be around. All the glorious stories she told me about growing up in this town of Grobuckle were amazing. Her childhood was spent mostly by taking long walks on the beach and taking adventures in Andromeda, the neighboring town, 9 miles from Grobuckle. I sat and listened in awe as her stories contorted my mind in to thinking I could do anything. “Elijah, not so fast,” she said while I plowed through those chocolate chip cookies, “you want to get a pain right in your tum, tum?” She said while laughing one of her famous, rich laughs. Then she took the cookies away from me and saying that dinner was almost ready. Monday morning crept in on me so fast that I looked in the mirror and said, “Wow!” I got ready for school that day and walked like a turtle to the bus stop, where my best friend Bryan and Alec were standing. Just then I remembered I forgot to eat breakfast. “Hi guys,” I said while yawning. Boy was I tired. I hadn’t gone to bed since midnight the previous night. So that had something to do with it, plus I didn’t eat breakfast. “Elijah, why so tired? Did you forget about the big test in Science?” Bryan said to me. I had forgotten completely about the test and was dreading the day ahead. “Bryan,” Alec said while swinging on the stop sign, “I’m going to ask Alicia out today.” I and Bryan steered at him wondering what brought this on. I, on the other hand, had other things on my mind, so I didn’t say anything and the subject were dropped. At school that day, some of the kids made fun of me. They said that I was a shit face and was messed up because I didn’t have a father figure to teach me from right or wrong. The rest of the day I paid no attention to anything. My life drastically changed when I was 5 and nothing’s been the same ever since. The teachers blabbed on about the same old, same old. They sounded like the parents from Charlie Brown. I walked home slowly that day. My mind affected the way I lived life. I caught myself smelling roses and thinking about life in a different way. Before, life was just something I took for granted, but now more Than ever I took life to be something I cherished. At home I sat down with my grandma who knew something was up. “Elijah, I’ve noticed you’re not yourself lately. Is there something you want to tell me?” She said trying as best she could to comfort me. I stared at her, choking my way to words I was trying to say. “You know…. I miss… I miss mama.” Grandma looked at me as my mom did the time my goldfish Goldie died. Grandma stood by me comforting me. “Elijah, I know it must be hard on you. I felt the same way when grandpa died in that fatal fire at the oil refinery. I’d just think of all the good times and try to relieve them in my mind. Tell you what, let’s make some brownies. I’ll let you lick the spoon.” Suddenly I smiled. It was the first smile since the time I learned to ride my bike. I guess I smiled because of the way she used her words, so delicate and fine, and so full of life. And not one word lost its meaning while she said them. The rest of the day was spent making brownies. I even licked the spoon. The brownie making was so fun. It got my mind away from the day and into having fun for once. After the death of my parents, I felt so helpless. The memories controlled me like a robot. I was the one who was going to have to be strong. My grandmother stroked my hair and leaned over to kiss the top of my head. “Your hair is like your grandpa’s when he was young, the color of ripe chestnuts in autumn.” She then smiled one of her famous smiles that warmed up your insides and gave me a huge hug. On Saturday I repressed all my thoughts till today. The rock that I every so often sat on spilling out my thoughts was placed at Potters beach in Galilee. Nothing really bothered me or, for that matter, disturbed me as I sat on that rock. It comforted me on those Saturdays and Sundays I needed to be alone. Sometimes I’d stay there for half the day and come home as red as a lobster. Grandma would comfort me and pour milk in the tub. She’d said that the milk would help soothe the skin. It was expensive and a waste of 10 gallons of milk and I did need to put on sunscreen every hour. Once I returned to my house, grandma stood by the door, ready to tell me something. “Elijah, your friend Bryan called, he asked if you wanted to go to the movies next Saturday Evening,” She then motioned me inside; I nodded and then called Bryan to set up the movie night. As usual on most Saturdays, I stayed up late watching television. Nothing good was on as usual, so I just sat in bed thinking. I always thought. It gave me a chance to get my thoughts straight and my mind well organized. Grandma always said that an organized mind is a happy mind. She did always say poetic stuff that she got from her calendar. I knew in fact that she was a mighty good grandma full of love and care. I pulled the comforter over me and closed my eyes slowly. Tomorrow was a new day and in my life, it was chore day. It was the most boring day of the week besides Monday.
Calling all writers!!!!? PLEASE HELP! ? OK. so basically i'm writing this story and well read how much i've written first. I flinch. Where am I? How did I get here? I remember nothing. Why is that? My left eye is throbbing. My heart is pounding. I have slits all up and down my arms, which are exposed from my purple tank top. My arms look extremely thin and weak. My feet are bare and cold. They’re tremendously muddy and have a thin layer of sand on them. Why sand? We live nowhere by the beach! Pennsylvania hardly has any beaches. The closest one to my town is at least four hours away- by plane. That’s a day’s trip to the beach in a car. Don’t be afraid. You can figure this one out, girl. I am so tired. My eyes aren’t willing to stay open. I have to hold them open with my bony fingers. They crack under the weight of my temples. I rest my body. I let my eyes close. Suddenly, I remember everything. Meagan and I were first invited to Ali’s party. We didn’t know it wouldn’t be supervised. Ali was the queen of my school- my world. She was prettier than Jessica Simpson and had the body of Tyra Banks. Meagan and I both doubted ourselves. I thought Meagan would be beautiful if she washed her face, wore foundation, bought and used mascara, and lost a few pounds. Meagan thought I could be exceptionally attractive if I dyed my hair darker, used Proactive, and wore glittery body lotion. We never did though. Meagan had a phobia of mascara getting in her eyes and blinding her. She also had thin skin which required an expensive type of makeup. I, on the other hand, couldn’t dye my hair until I was 18 (rule of my house) and my parents for some odd reason thought glittery stuff was much too “old” for a 14 year old. So, we were both stuck with our slightly tall, pale, so-so attractive bodies. I remember getting invited to the party. “Ashley, come to my party and we can partay all night long.” Ali smirked at me, then winked. If Ali invited you anywhere without winking you knew she was teasing you. If she winked, you were in. I was in. Partying with Ali for even a night would make my life complete. Chilling with Ali was like partying which Heath Ledger on cloud 9. It was probably the best thing you could ever do, aside from modeling for Smackers, which I had done when I was 10. When I was 10 my skin was clear, I didn’t need glasses, and my eyes were smoldering. That’s probably why I got the job. It was the only modeling job I ever did and the $400 was paid in cash. I remember I spent it on a 3 hour European facial and massage for my Mom for Mother’s Day. I remember when Meagan and I were alone but at the same time it would be as though no one was ever home in those hollow heads of ours. I wished it was different. I knew it would haunt me forever. I wished it never happened, but it did. It happened and there was nothing I could do about it. After getting invited to hang with Ali, I then began to mimic how she dressed. It was pretty skimpy, actually. I knew my parents would never let me wear super short shorts and towering high heels outside of my room. I always would have to come to the parks and stores early so I could change from my sweatpants into something that didn’t look frumpy. We would always walk with our hands joined together. It was so much fun. Whenever Ali and I got to be alone for even five minutes, we’d love every second of it. I never wanted to leave her, ever. She made me so happy. Whenever I wasn’t with her, I would get so miserable and feel like there was nothing left in the world to look forward to. There were a few things that bothered me about Ali, though. Although I would never tell her, I couldn’t stand how she was a terrible speller and how she was skinnier than me. I don’t know why but I somehow managed to live without thinking about those things with Ali ever again. Basically all we ever did when we were twelve was walk around town in inappropriate clothes and play in parks. Once we turned thirteen, we started stealing. It started out with little things, like 20 bucks from my Mom’s wallet, and candy corn from BiMart. Soon it escalated to high points. Like stealing blouses from Nordstrom and taking shoes from Payless. Fast forwards about six months after Ali and I turned 13. We were in her room listening to Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl” and singing as loud as we possibly could. Few times I’ve been around that track… “Ash, have you ever tried Laffy Taffy?” Ali said while flinging her one blonde side braid over her left shoulder and applying purple eyeliner to her grey-green eyes. “Of course I’ve had Laffy Taffy.” I say while rolling my eyes. “Not this kind.” Ali smirks and delicately peels off a wrapper of a sour apple Laffy Taffy. That’s my favorite kind and she knows it. I can’t resist one of those. “Okay. So, what’s so special about this one?” I say while popping it in my mouth. SO anyways back to the question... What could be so special about the laffy taffy? I was thinking it could be lace

d' you like the newly revised version of chapter one of my novel? Chapter 1: The dog laughed boastfully as the cat cried. Today, I felt like that cat, which, in time got badly beaten by the vicious Pit Bull. That day was when I gradually spilled my thoughts to some seals and birds that passed by the huge rock on a typically boring Sunday afternoon. The sun reflected off of the sapphire water, making the water more beautiful than ever. The sea, in Galilee, the next town over from Grobuckle, was a destination for all fishermen. I looked out into the sea and saw the fishing boats in the distance. Every now and then a big fishing would ride by with commercial fishermen boasting about all the fish they had caught. As I walked down the dark, desolate streets of Grobuckle, It was suddenly not sunny anymore. The sun hid itself behind the grayest of clouds. I suspected it was due to rain any second. I trotted to my house and greeted my grandma likes usual. My grandma has been my caretaker since I was 5; that’s when my mother and father passed away in a hurricane over in Cancun. Now it’s just me and my grandma and 50 dollars a week. We get by, but sometimes it’s tough. Some weeks we don’t have enough food. Other weeks we do. I cry. It hurts me when mother’s day and father’s day come around. In school we have to make cards for father’s day and mother’s day. “My father and mother pass some years ago,” I’d tell them. I and my grandma talked over some cookies and hot brewed tea. She was a hot ticket to be around. All the glorious stories she told me about growing up in this town of Grobuckle were amazing. “Elijah, not so fast,” she said while I plowed through those chocolate chip cookies, “you want to get a pain right in your tum, tum?” She said while laughing one of her famous, rich laughs. Then she took the cookies away from me and saying that dinner was almost ready. Monday morning crept in on me so fast that I looked in the mirror and said, “Wow!” I got ready for school that day and walked like a turtle to the bus stop, where my best friend Bryan and Alec were standing. Just then I remembered I forgot to eat breakfast. “Hi guys,” I said while yawning. Boy was I tired. I hadn’t gone to bed since midnight the previous night. So that had something to do with it, plus I didn’t eat breakfast. “Elijah, why so tired? Did you forget about the big test in Science?” Bryan said to me. I had forgotten completely about the test and was dreading the day ahead. “Bryan,” Alec said while swinging on the stop sign, “I’m going to ask Alicia out today.” I and Bryan steered at him wondering what brought this on. I, on the other hand, had other things on my mind, so I didn’t say anything and the subject were dropped. At school that day, some of the kids made fun of me. They said that I was a shit face and was messed up because I didn’t have a father figure to teach me from right or wrong. The rest of the day I paid no attention to anything. My life drastically changed when I was 5 and nothing’s been the same ever since. The teachers blabbed on about the same old, same old. They sounded like the parents from Charlie Brown. I walked home slowly that day. My mind affected the way I lived life. I caught myself smelling roses and thinking about life in a different way. Before, life was just something I took for granted, but now more Than ever I took life to be something I cherished. At home I sat down with my grandma who knew something was up. “Elijah, I’ve noticed you’re not yourself lately. Is there something you want to tell me?” She said trying as best she could to comfort me. I stared at her, choking my way to words I was trying to say. “You know…. I miss… I miss mama.” Grandma looked at me as my mom did the time my goldfish Goldie died. Grandma stood by me comforting me. “Elijah, I know it must be hard on you. I felt the same way when grandpa died in that fatal fire at the oil refinery. I’d just think of all the good times and try to relieve them in my mind. Tell you what, let’s make some brownies. I’ll let you lick the spoon.” Suddenly I smiled. It was the first smile since the time I learned to ride my bike. I guess I smiled because of the way she used her words, so delicate and fine, and so full of life. And not one word lost its meaning while she said them. The rest of the day was spent making brownies. I even licked the spoon. The brownie making was so fun. It got my mind away from the day and into having fun for once. After the death of my parents, I felt so helpless. The memories controlled me like a robot. I was the one who was going to have to be strong. My grandmother stroked my hair and leaned over to kiss the top of my head. “Your hair is like your grandpa’s when he was young, the color of ripe chestnuts in autumn.” She then smiled one of her famous smiles that warmed up your insides and gave me a huge hug. On Saturday I repressed all my thoughts till today. The rock that I every so often sat on spilling out my thoughts was placed at Potters beach in Galilee. Nothing really bothered me or, for that matter, disturbed me as I sat on that rock. It comforted me on those Saturdays and Sundays I needed to be alone. Sometimes I’d stay there for half the day and come home as red as a lobster. Grandma would comfort me and pour milk in the tub. She’d said that the milk would help soothe the skin. It was expensive and a waste of 10 gallons of milk and I did need to put on sunscreen every hour. Once I returned to my house, grandma stood by the door, ready to tell me something. “Elijah, your friend Bryan called, he asked if you wanted to go to the movies next Saturday Evening,” She then motioned me inside; I nodded and then called Bryan to set up the movie night. As usual on most Saturdays, I stayed up late watching television. Nothing good was on as usual, so I just sat in bed thinking. I always thought. It gave me a chance to get my thoughts straight and my mind well organized. Grandma always said that an organized mind is a happy mind. She did always say poetic stuff that she got from her calendar. I knew in fact that she was a mighty good grandma full of love and care. I pulled the comforter over me and closed my eyes slowly. Tomorrow was a new day and in my life, it was chore day. It was the most boring day of the week besides Monday.

Should I tell here I have feelings for her? I'm thinking about telling my friend that I have feelings for her. I've known her for around 3 years now and we have been great friends. The first year we met we both had feelings for each other but it never went anywhere because both of us were with other people. It was a deep feeling on my part but she is very beautiful and smart and kind ,but can come off as a bitch because she says what she thinks and doesn't fake it. My feelings for her disappeared as time went on when I saw that she kept getting back together with her boyfriend who would break up with her (around 10 times in 2 years). My girlfriend and I had broke up because she had to move to Germany so we couldn't be together. Since them my friend has been single and so have I. We hang out at least 3 times a week but this past weekend we went to her beach house were we hung out with each other and two of our friends we are dating. I've always thought she was beautiful but this weekend after spending so much time with her the feelings are beginning to come back. I would have told her already while we were at the beach house but I'm not sure if I should. We slept in the same bed and had deep conversations for hours but never did anything sexual. She told me she had a dream about us having sex a while back but when I asked her more about it she says it's too awkward. I told her it shouldn't be awkward it's just a dream and it's just sex and she says "I know but talking about it with you is awkward" The only thing I got out of her was that it was good and I was on top haha. I would always wake up before her unless she was pretending to be asleep. But when I would wake up we would always be cuddling or I would wake up int he middle of the night int he spooning position. One night we were talking about either renting a house or apartment because we are going to the same college and we both can trust each other with paying our share of the rent. We were talking about that when I jokingly said we should be sex buddies so we can become champions at sex. She told me she didn't want people to think she was a hoe and I told her no one had to know and she changed the subject from there. Our two friends told one of our other friends we had sex one of the nights at the beach house so I said "No one likes a liar so we should make it true" she said no. A part of me wants to tell her that I like her because I believe she may have the same feelings again. We often flirt but I'm not sure if it's more of me thinking we are flirting and we really aren't. The other part of me doesn't want to tell her but believes she doesn't have the same feelings and it will make it awkward from then on. This past weekend was a lot of fun an I thought she had fun to but the morning after the first night she got a text on her phone from her Mom while she was in the shower so I checked it to make sure it was urgent. When I unlocked her phone it automatically went to the last message she sent which was that morning which she had sent to her ex boyfriend saying "You're lucky you stayed home"

what should i do about him? here's the full story: i met this amazing guy over the summer at a friends end of the summer party. he came with an older friend of mine, who is a senior this year. we started talking and exchanged numbers. later on in the week we went to sunset cliffs and walked around and talked for a little while, then we went to mission beach and walked all the way down to the end of pacific beach and back just talking about everything. then he drives me home, its about 10:30-11:00. when he drops me off at home i give him a hug(hes in the drivers seat) and as i pull away he gives me a kiss on the cheek. about a week goes by with us talking about every night. on friday, we go out again, this time we go to balboa park and we walk around still talking and we walk over that bridge that leads into the rose garden and we walk to this spot where we again talk. this old man walk by and says she sure is pretty son. and im like thank you. then when the old man leaves he turns to me and at this point he's sitting on the wall and im in front of him with my hands on his knees, he say you know, your beautiful. and i just look at him and blushand then i lean in and just hug him and sighand we have a little small talk going on then we both pull back and kiss. it gets pretty intense for awhile, then it ends and we head back to his car hand-in-hand. he then takes me out to eat(and pays) at this quaint little restaurant called volteros. after were done eating, he drives me out to la jolla shores where we end up making out in the sand and then eventually on top of a life guard tower. he had his shirt off and it was amazing(for the record, all of my clothes were on).near the end we were just holding each other and talking about how this was going to work out between us(hes older than me by 10yrs- dont get judgemental just because of the age difference. you guys will see why hes not some pervert later in the message) i ask him what we r going to do now, that all of this has happened. he says, to everbody else, we have to be friends, but we will always know. i will wait for you ill wait however long it takes. after we pull ourselves together weclimb down and head back to the car, where he drives me home. after our lovely night, we continue to talk, till he has to start school, and even when he does we talk about every other day or 2. about two weeks go by and i have to help out at a car wash. i tell him afterwards that my brother took my cell phone and took his number out of it and i told him if this number contacts you dont answer it. i think he got worried, so he told me that we probably shouldnt talk for awhile, and i agrred with him, thinking he was right and it was for the better. it has now been about four and a half months since then. i called him a couple of days ago (he didnt answer) i left a message saying hi, just wondering how you were doing. am i wasting my time thinking about him pretty much all the time or do i just have to be patient and know that he will contact me when i am old enough plus, do you think its a good idea if i call him on his birthday(wich is another month away

What movie is this? There was this old scifi movie I seen 10-12 years ago. I had thought the name was Bikini Babes from Mars, but can't find that anywhere. The plot revolves around beautiful aliens (bikini-clad women) landing on Earth to lure men for food. The women remove their bikini tops and their boobs eat them. lol. I'm actually not joking. One scene had a blonde Earth gal walking on the beach, when a bunch of guys gangrape her. She fights, but then starts liking it. I was too young to remember much, but wanted to track it down for comic relief. Plus, I love cheesy erotic b-horror movies. Can anyone help?

Chapter One “Is my beginning really my end?” I blew the candle out the room suddenly became dark and cold. I lay on the bed what have I gotten myself into? I thought to myself. The answer was clear to me but I just did’t want to believe it. I groaned and rolled off my bed making a loud thud on the ground. “Hey what’s going on up there?!” Daniel screamed up as he ran up the stairs busting into my room. “You don’t always have to worry about me” I murmured as I got off the floor and stood about 3 feet across from him. “Are you sure about that?” he smiled. “Shut up!” I yelled pushing him as he stumbled to the ground. “Violence is never the answer.” He laughed. “Says the man who -” he interrupted me “Who what? Shelly this is a new life lets forget about the past.” He said rubbing his top forehead lightly pushing back his brown chestnut colored hair. “How can we forget the past when the past is here!” I yelled. “Where’s the past! Where is it?” he yelled even louder. “It’s right here.” I said pointing to myself. “I’m the reason we’re here I’m the reason you’re here and I’m the reason why.” I silently responded. Daniel came to me and hugged me. “You’re definitely not the reason we’re here. They are” he said lightly. Daniel left the room quietly and I sat back down on my bed of my dark room. Although we weren’t staying long this felt like an actual home to me. Usually we stayed in hotels, motels, old apartments but this was different it was a beach house across the sand beach of Plum Island. It was beautiful and cozy. I always walk up and down the beach laying there at night thinking if we were ever going to leave this place of unnatural trauma and deep depression and when I say “this place” I mean this state of mind. The nasty disease that kills me whenever I see Daniel’s sad face…guilt. I could have never dragged Daniel along for these sad months. Don’t let it eat you up Daniel would always say to me. I would solemnly respond quietly murmuring words I did’t even know. But, although I’ve spent most of my life with Daniel I still did’t know who he was or I still don’t know who he is. He’s mysterious and likes it that way. He doesn’t like people who know too much about him. He’s closed up in a cocoon like a butterfly waiting to emerge and be free. But I don’t think that will be anytime soon. You see Daniel is my cousin he’s been with me ever since it happened. I love him so much because he’s like my only family. My family got injured in a fire their fine but after that they forgot about me then Daniel took me in. I hated him for doing that but I started to love him as I progressed. I walked down the stairs to see Daniel his eyes planted on the TV screen. He WAS’t moving…not one movement. He’s probably trying to scare me. “Not funny Daniel.” I laughed he’s good but not to good. He still did’t move. “DAN!” I yelled as I ran to him. I gasped at the unwelcoming sight. A knife stabbed in his heart blood pouring everywhere. No he’s not dead. “DANIEL YOU’RE NOT DEAD” I screamed repeating it over and over. I ran to the phone to call 911 but someone grabbed my waist. “You really don’t want to do that.” The raspy and flat deep voice said turning me around strangling me. I tried to push away but I did’t. Someone suddenly came behind him and pushed him to the ground. I looked to the couch. Daniel’s body was gone. I stayed in a fear state of crying yelling and fussing as the figure grabbed me and flung me over his back running me out the house. “LET GO!” I shrieked. “LET GO!” I kept saying until we reached a black eclipse. The man who had strangled me was running out the beach house towards us. “AH!” I yelled. Behind the man was another man and woman with blood smothered on their faces. “NO!” I screamed as the man holding me fussed to open the car door. He finally got the door opened and pushed me inside making me land in the front seat. 2 men and 2 women were in the back squished together. This is the end. I thought as the man came into the driver’s seat and sighed. He looked at me confused and tired. “Your one heck of a girl.” He mumbled. If you want the ending of chapter one and chapter 2 give me your email i'll send it to you.

Help me pick (Siberian Husky, German Shepherd, Border Collie)? I have already put a similar question to this but people made assumptions that aren't true. I would like to stress this - I have had experience with a pack of dogs before and i am fully confident with controlling a pack. I just need help picking a dog or two. I also know the regulations in my area about pets. I have researched a lot about these breeds and I know what the responsibilities are (cost, behaviour of a certain breed that may be unwanted). I have a lot of acreage for lots of dogs to run around. I just need help from you guys with picking a breed. So can you forget about everything else and just help me pick a breed or two. (sorry if i sounded harsh in the top paragraph but i just wanted to make myself clear) By the way I have a golden retriever and getting another soon Do 5 dogs sound like too many, if yes how many then? (like if you went to the beach and saw a person with 5 dogs, would you be like wow that’s a lot of dogs or would you be like, oh cool) Please write anything that will help me choose one or all of these breeds. I would like to narrow it down as much as possible. It’s hard because they are all beautiful breeds. Thank you, for reading this and helping me out. Choosing a breed was very hard I originally had about 10 breeds but narrowed it to Golden Retriever, Siberian Husky, German Shepherd and Border Collie. I think that's all i had to say. =) Thank you

10 questions? L.T.Q. #1I ________________________________________A man packs up all of the contents of his cubicle at work, promising to send out "Lateral Thinking" questions again once he gets settled in his new location. However, due to circumstances not entirely out of his control, after the move he decides not to unpack his belongings. If the cards containing the questions are still packed away, how is he able to continue the e-mail messages? ________________________________________________________________________________Betty signals to the headwaiter in a restaurant, and says, "There's a fly in my tea." The waiter says, "No problem, madam. I will bring you a fresh cup of tea." A few minutes later Betty shouts, "Get the manager! This is the same cup of tea!" How did she know?________________________________________ L.T.Q. #2________________________________________In New York City's Central Park, in the middle of summer, police have discovered the frozen body of a man lying in the centre of a baseball diamond. There are no footprints leading to or away from the body. How did he die, and how did his body get to where it was found?________________________________________ L.T.Q. #3________________________________________Part #1: A horse jumps over the tower and lands on a man, who disappears. How can such a thing be? Part #2: Two priests sitting in the castle's chapel see the queen attack the king and kill him. The priests rise, shake hands, and leave the room why so sanguine about regicide? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #4________________________________________Coming home from work, Simon had just put his key in the lock of his door when he heard his wife Betty scream, "Bill, don't kill me!" He dashes in to find Betty dead with a knife buried in her chest. Standing around the body are a postman, a doctor, and a lawyer. The husband immediately knows the postman killed his wife. How? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #5 ________________________________________ Rachel was sun bathing at a nude beach because she heard it was the best way to acquire an overall tan. Day after day she was out lying in the sun, yet couldn't manage the complete tan. What could she be doing wrong to prevent her from receiving the even tones she so desired? L.T.Q. #6 ________________________________________ Against his better judgment Captain Frank attended Art Bragg's annual Christmas party. Captain Frank sat in a corner trying to be as inconspicuous as possible, when Art trapped him in one of his many tall tales. "Why yes," began Art, "even my days as a younger man were filled with adventures. That beautiful white rabbit skin and that 14 point moosehead on the wall are both from animals that I shot when I was just a lad of 12. I got them both up in Canada during my July 4th holidays. Two summers later I shot this beautiful bear you're sittin' your feet on." Captain Frank realizing that Art was just getting started, got up and said, "Art, excuse me, but I can't take your bull any longer." Why did Captain Frank say this? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #7 ________________________________________ Duncan Drivel had a collection of rare bird calling records which he wished to sell. He sold half of his records plus a half record more to Professor Bumble. then he sold half of what was left and a half record more to Whislin Willy. At this point Duncan had one record left. How many records did Duncan have originally? ________________________________________ Two other questions come to mind. 1. What are Professor Bumble and Whislin Willy going to do with only half a record? Is it the top half or bottom half? Or maybe the left half or the right half. And won't it destroy the record player to try to play only half a record? 2. What is the title of the record Duncan has left, and why did he keep it? Which brings a third question to mind: Who is the biggest turkey of the bunch? L.T.Q. #8 ________________________________________ Charles Pompuss was racing around in his new sports car when he noticed that his throat was parched. He came to a screeching halt in front of the 'Soul-Ace Hotel' and the nine police cars which had been chasing him, slammed into the back of his car and each other's. How many bumpers will have been hit? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #9 ________________________________________ A horse is tied to a five meter rope in front of an old saloon. Six meters behind the horse is a bale of hay. Without breaking his rope, the horse is able to eat the hay whenever he chooses. How is this possible? ________________________________________ L.T.Q. #10 ________________________________________ Texas Tom is looking for a cottage set on a beautiful waterfront property. The realtor suggests a new development on the Moscow Sea. He says that the only problem with the property is that it's a little tough to get to right now.
