.... the edge of a 100-foot drop off. I could see to the other side of the river. We've decided to lay our sleeping bags down on the edge of the cliff, it seemed to be the most level surface and the best view. As we looked up we could see the stars, thousands and thousands of them. The distinctive Milky Way right over had looked like a highway of stars stuck in rush-hour I shined my flashing over the edge down toward the river bed but my light never made it that far.I Could see the stars jumping up and down in the reflection of the running water and hear the tackling sou .....

.... Mom and Grandmother worked. When I was four, Mom got remarried, and we moved to Jacksonville, North Carolina. We lived in a duplex for six months, just long enough for the three of us to find a house. Then we moved only five miles away to a place I could finally call “home.” In August of 1988, I started kindergarten, at Swansboro Primary School. In October of that same year Mom gave birth to my sister Kira. In 1990, to my sister Kristy was born. The next year went on to Swansboro Elementary School, where I was involved in many plays and activities and kept my grades up .....

.... side. How do I tell Blair about Cinderella’s fatal flaws? For, despite, the picture perfect image, and despite the advancing years, Cinderella, is still as codependent as ever. In fact, the sin of Cinderella is her ongoing, untreated codependency. Where has Cinderella been this past decade? Why has she been in denial while the rest of America worked on its’ inner child, adult child and dysfunctional family issues? It’s clear she’s missed John Bradshaw’s series, "The Family." Obviously, she hasn’t boned up on codependency, let alone, women who love too much. If .....

.... who both had international experience. By contrast, our team had no current national players. In the dressing room, I found all of my teammates already preparing for the game. The room was small and poorly lit. The captain was taking us through all kinds of stretching exercises. Everyone else was quiet, their faces reflecting concentration on the game ahead. Suddenly the coach started to announce the starting eleven. My name was announced first. The silence was punctuated by applause. I was watching to see if anyone showed concern; I did not detect any. The applause continued f .....

.... would look around myself and ponder the questions of life and become fascinated with everything around me as well as listen to the sounds of nature. I hear many sounds; the ribbit of a dirty-green plump frog hidden amongst the underbrush, chirps of birds high in the sky, and the soft wind as it rustles leaves on the trees. The most amazing scene I have witnessed many times along this pond is the ducks. Every few days, I see a family of ducks traveling across the green grass. The smallest duck, no more than 4 inches tall, would march proudly near the end of the pack. I s .....

.... sugar. He sniffs me round and I feel that he is glad to see me as well. Almost all day long we spend together. We walk around in the green field, strewed with small,spring,colorful flowers. The air is filled with smell of the fresh grass. I share with him all the news I had gotten up to that time. And then, finally, splitting the air impregnated with spring, we rush along across the field into the distance, into the perspective, into nowhere. I feel the power of my reliable friend, while holding onto his black mane. The speed, moving the bodies in time, breathing - al .....

.... there a couple of minutes then decided to follow her. "Misty wait up!" he yelled. Ash wasn't prepared for what awaited him, Misty's home town of Cerulean City was practically destroyed. The Gym was on fire and Rocket Troops were already setting up a garrison. Ash could here Misty commanding her Pokemon not far away, he followed the voice and found Misty battling a Rocket Troop. The Troop was a big muscular man with an assault rifle slung over his shoulder and a riot helmet covering his features. The huge "R" on his chest sickened Ash to look at, so he concentrated his tho .....

.... he had won the gold medal for dirt swimming in the 2000 Ghetto Olympics. Teenage girls lined up like militant soldiers moving in the same sequence to B.G.’s “Bling-Bling” Everyone looked up and stared as the very noticeable squad car crept by, hoping to shake the local people, but no one moved just cold stares back, as if it was a showdown in the wild wild west. Junkies pasted by with squeaking shopping carts filled with old telephones, hubcaps and Styrofoam cups and plates. An elderly woman sat on her porch rocking back and forth, surrounded by a crowd of wild cats wa .....
