Have you ever had to help a family member with his or her job? Well I had to him with his job one time. He asked me if he would help him out during the Memorial Day sale at his job was having so I happily agreed. Plus, he was going to pay me for helping so that was a plus. The day started at three o’clock in the morning, which was really hard for me cause love to sleep in late. I got up, brushed my teeth, got dressed, and grabbed a drink on the way out the door. Then we got in the car and headed…

Have you ever wondered what it was like to not have noisy automobiles bothering you day and night? What if you had the ability to explore the vast wilderness to your heart's content? Can you imagine having a guardian spirit to guide you throughout your hardship of life? How about living off the land by means of hunting and gathering, sleeping under the stars, and falling asleep to the peaceful sounds of nature. But then to be forced to leave the only place you have ever known. That is what I…

One night, it was storm that my creator Victor Frankenstein put me on a metal table and pull a lever. That made me go up the sky then he waited for lighting to strike. When the lighting strikes it hit me and he pull the lever that bought me down. When Victor looked at me I woke up and scared him. Then he got scared and run away then I started chasing him. When I finally got outside I looked around to what I saw, which I try to talk but I could not speak then in the distance I saw people coming I…

Watching the rain fall on “Dancing With the Stars” on Monday night had me a little nervous. Luckily the splashing was kept to a minimum and none of the audience got sprinkles. Still, it made me wonder. What would the producers think of next? Shaking while dancing (like an earthquake), wind (by bringing in dozens of fans) and the biggest possible element could be snow. As creative as the professional dancers are on the show, I wouldn’t be surprised if a few flakes would be falling before the end…

In the movie Black Panther, as he was dying, Eric Killmonger stayed true to his cause even after he was given the chance to live, “...Why? So you can just lock me up. Naw, Just bury me in the ocean with my ancestors who jumped from the ships. Because they knew death was better than bondage.” Earlier this year, the long wait was over for the action-packed Marvel film. After seeing the film, many viewers had the notion that Eric Killmonger was either a villian extremist or a revolutionary in…

I woke up to the sound of chains rattling against my skin. My head was pounding. I slowly pulled my hand up to feel where I got hit. My head felt crusty from the dried up blood on it. With much pain, I slowly looked up, only to be pushed back down. “Don’t move.” said a large, burly man wearing a stained white beater, long, ripped pants, and an apron with a ton of holes. He smelled like a rotting fish surrounded by flies. His apron was stained red, and I had the faintest idea that he wasn’t a…

The Painful Two Hour Hospital Wait It was a lovely June day, four days prior to the due date of this writing piece, and for once I was ready to go to Gym class outside. Instead of playing with the other people, because I obviously have no sports skills, I playing with the international students (who were with the beginners). At the end of the game I got ticked in the toe which leads to where this memoir begins. My toe had been bothering me all day after that. I iced it and elevated it but no…

Tumba, a small active young leopard, was running around an open field on a hot summer day in sub-Saharan Africa. Tumba and his friends were chasing birds and wrestling with each other. Suddenly Tumba stopped cold in his tracks. In the distance he could see three vehicles coming towards them. Tumba started running as fast as his little legs could take him. He kept running and running till he stopped and turned around. He saw nothing. No friends, no family, no poachers, all he saw was sand.…

Mike had always wondered when, and more specifically how he would die. Maybe, he thought, that one day the shadow monster would simply decide that it wanted another go, and would come back for him instead, or that Max's crazy older brother would accidentally run him over with his fancy expensive car. He hoped it would be a memorable death, like the kind everyone's talking about for a while, and whenever they mention your name, they whisper it. Mike never expected it to be whatever the hell he…
