I never went to a Bulls game before and I was really excited. I liked the Bulls a lot and I had a lot of Bulls clothing except I never really watched any of the games and I didn’t know many

As the warm ups started the players were getting nervous. Both teams wanted the state championship very bad and they were just hours away from winning it. Months and months of strenuous conditioning and closely won ball games had all come down to this one game. The referee threw the perfectly round orange rubber

For a guy who had just recently got used to waking up at 10 AM‚ and spending the entire day playing soccer and video games‚ it was quite a challenge to wake up at six in the morning and take the metra to downtown by seven.

No Love Lost‚ No Love Found That father and daughter bond‚ the sweetest love I’ve never known. I’ve seen my father over a thousand times wondering if he’s ever seen me. Looking with his eyes wide shut. It seemed as if over the years he was disappearing‚ fading into the black. A fragment of what I thought I needed but in all reality became as pointless as the conclusion to book that I’ll never finish My father has managed for eighteen years to be a part of my life without being a part of my life

“Hush‚ Hush…”‚ the clockwork whispers and all the mice go still. Brutal clouds are brewing‚ and the clouds are meant to kill. Kill humans? Oh dear‚ of course not. They are far more mysterious than that. These clouds are the keepers and killers of dreams because in every dream there must be a rat. Every night when a child slumbers‚ pictures of utopia flash through their heads. Yet‚ a rat of reality always scurries on in to keep the frivolity limited to their beds. The clouds amass over Miss Elaine
