Absurd Person Singular When we were younger we were always asked the same old questions, what were our fears, our aspirations, what made us tick and what kept us awake at night? These questions don't simply disappear, they aren't left behind us we mature into adulthood. No. They cling to us with desperation and they refuse to be forgotten.

Soul Tunnel My family had just moved into our new house. It was a nice house, but it was almost too big. During the second night in my new house, I was brushing my teeth when I had noticed a tiny corner of paper sticking out from the bathroom mirror. I took a screwdriver and lifted the glass and discovered a detailed map to tunnels underneath the house. The next day, when my parent's were out, I decided to follow the map through the tunnels. The tunnels began at a hidden…
Defining our Defining Moments There are many important days in our lives. I have mine and you have yours. These important days are not ordinary in the sense of an everyday occurence but instead are extra ordinary as they play a pivotal role in making us who are regardless of if we want them to or not.

Real Reality In every single one of my classes I was taller and wider than all of the other kids. I weighted more than three of my classmates combined. Mostly, no one said anything about the elephant in the room, but I was obviously still there. I was always first on the risers at music concerts.

It's the subtle glances when you make a comment about the way they reacted. It's the constant need for validation and acceptance from the person you want it from the most, yet it never comes. These are the small things that make you both love them and hate them with every bone of your body. It is…

Considering I am only 19,my whole life hasn't been very long, but it has been long enough to be known as "The one who is in school". School has…
