Mr. Mackley began to write on the board again‚ with the marker speaking every few seconds. When he was done‚ I immediately read the new question. What do you know about 9/11? If I was honest with myself‚ I would say‚ not much. “Marie‚ what do you know about 9/11?” Marie was the chubbier girl with no height that I had called short-fatty. Guilt filled my every cell. Why was I such a jerk? I shook my head‚ I can’t possibly blame it on the town‚ or my father- who doesn’t exist. Marie contemplated her

Stuffed Crab My stuffed crab was once fluffy and bright red. It’s now flattened and faded – something that 10+ years of being wedged between the dashboard and windshield of a car will do.

A young sporting type‚ who looked remarkably similar to his youngest boy‚ approached him and offered him

The Most Significant Experience which Made Me Who I am today. Life is an opportunity. It is a cycle of most valuable and treasured memories that even a ninety year old and a crippled person will not be able to erase and forget. It is an endless road that is full of laughter‚ sweat‚ tearful and most of all loneliness. The land was extremely barren for my eyes. The blue angry waves of the sea made me feel so anxious to paddle my daddy’s canoe to collect sea urchins and sea cucumbers‚ that I

Every Thursday‚ from that first day back in April‚ when Aingeal and I were first introduced‚ till the end of the year‚ the four of us (Jen‚ Tracy‚ Aingeal‚ and I) would meet at Old Country Buffet after classes to sit and talk about all aspects of our lives.

I decided to apply; I knew I would get the position because I knew everything there was to know about the opening position. To my surprise I wasn’t qualify for the position because I did not have a degree. Working full time in a clinic is not enough for me; I decided I want more out of life.
