Winged Memoirs
Day 198 It has been almost half a year since I have been alone living in the rain forest. The peaceful lively sound of the singing birds with the buzz of the chirping insects, the smell after the pounding rainstorms and the deep colors of the greenery around keeps me whole. Sometimes I stare at the scenery and get lost in my thoughts and wish I had someone that I could share them with. It gets lonesome when I am sitting by the waterfalls and watch them playing on the other side. It makes me miss my family more than usual.

Muddy Mystery
Part 1 I could feel him drag my limp body across the ground as I tried acting like I was still asleep. The road rash stung as I struggled keeping my composure. There was nothing that I could do but keep pretending I was unconscious so that I could make an escape. Where I planned on going was not something that I had quite figured out yet. How I was going to get away was something I did not know.

Big Dreams From The Little Screen
It has been almost five years since I started. There is nothing in my life that brings me more joy than being on the ice. I can't wait for the day that my mother and father say that I can join Figure Skating for the olympics some year. They say they would rather have me be in football or basketball or anything other than. My heart tells me to follow my dreams and do it anyways, but how?

From The Deep Blue
After three long weeks under the hotel we were running out of ideas for a way out. The meals were sparse and the beds were unbearable. You would think for the quality of the resort that we were under that our kidnappers could do better, but no. That is the way that it was and we had no choice but try and get used to it. How we wound up below here was beyond our control and all we had was one another until we either died or escaped. The way we figured that if anyone could find us they would have by now.

Midnight Mysteries
During the summer of 1987 the week started off like any other week when I was making my rounds through the neighborhood. Every morning I delivered peopleโs newspapers before the crack of dawn. Yes I was the paperboy who would bike through the neighborhood tossing newspapers on peoples lawns. Even accidentally missed the sidewalk and broke a window once, but that is a story for another time. Then, one morning, out of no where everything changed.

The Morning After
It was a quiet morning looking over the water from the balcony. The waves were crashing and there was a cold breeze as the sun was rising. I could only hear the sound of birds singing from afar as I looked around. Curious about what the day had to bring I walked down the steps so I could walk by the water whilst i was drinking my cup of tea. Still recovering from the night before as I had a pounding headache and a stomach ache.

Headphones In
Over the years my music preferences changed drastically. When I was in my teenage years I listened to mostly rock, some rap, and nothing of what I currently have in my daily playlist. Everything that I used to listen to was emo or rock and nothing like the music preferences I have now a days. I rarely ever still listen to the music that I would play on repeat in my teenage years. The music that I would remember the lyrics for by heart. Is it strange I've wondered or is this the same for everyone?

The Windy Proposal
Around me was the buzzing sound of people talking and loud music. I could feel my hands clamming up and my cheeks flushing red. My body temperature was rising despite the cool breeze. I wiped away the sweat from my forehead and took a deep breath. This was it. I thought. The day I had been awaiting yet dreading ever since I found the picture that got my attention online. After such a long time I had found comfort in the distance, but at the same time suspicion if it was even real or if it was a lie. Going with my gut instinct I had finally decided to take it further even though I didn't feel ready. It had been three years, and that was more than long enough for me.
