14. No ideas, but in things
A drop of water hits a distant pool. Lola freezes mid-step. Her hand snakes around her hip resting on the hilt. Another drop of water echos. She relaxes her grip and takes a tentative step, feeling the hard earth though her thin leather shoes. The drop echos and the sound of shuffling of footsteps follow. Lola finds a boulder along the cave wall ( Read more... ) -
7. Family
3:00 p.m.
Deb was vacuuming her bedroom when it caught hold of something under the bed. She pulled a red Swisher Sweets box from its vice grip. He lied to me. She took the box into the bathroom and lifted the toilet seat. This is one box he’s not going to smoke. When she opened the box she found letters in unsealed envelops. She put the toilet seat ( Read more... ) -
31. Intelligence
Donnie growled in the middle of a text. He turned to Rose, who was sitting on the bed behind him. "It froze again."
She held out her hand and he gave her the phone. Rose gave it a quick look over before popping out the battery. "Just remove the battery and it'll reset." She handed back the phone. He went back to texting and fussing with his hair.

77. Deathbed Conversions
There's something about water that I've always liked. It's just so … Zen. We are creatures born of the water. Our bodies are made of the water, and we must constantly replenish it or die.

Decisions
I'm trying to figure out how to mesh these two sides of myself. The programming side and the writing side. On the one had I love writing although a bit scared of it. On the other hand I've been a professional programmer for over 7 years and I'm damned good at it. So where is the happy medium?

Programming or Writing?
I've been conflicted lately. This is because I'm a writer, I've declared it, realized it, internalized it, and accepted it. (also I love to write). But at the same time there is something that I find enjoyable about programming. So much so that I've failed at every attempt to remove programing from my life. Kassi thinks I should just go with it, ( Read more... ) -

School
I just finished my first quiz in accounting. I can see why people find it difficult. The quiz was only 10 questions multipal choice and it took me 20 min. The questions are not hard per say; the questions just involve a lot of numbers, math, and knowing which numbers to use for each equasion.
So I understand why it's considered a hard class. I don' ( Read more... ) -
I'm leaving youtube, and so should you.
I have a video on YouTube about obesity, specifically about how cola is a big contributor to obesity in this country. The video uses the song The Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor ("Moonlight" Sonata) by Ludwig van Beethoven. I created the video for a class project and used a website provided by my professor to obtain public domain music ( Read more... )
