When 'Jaws' Meets 'Cast Away'
Ron Howard’s movie In the Heart of the Sea, depicts a chain of catastrophic events from 1820 that inspired the tale of Moby-Dick. Essentially, it is a story about a story, which only makes me wonder: Have Hollywood filmmakers truly exhausted all the great tales, and now have to contend with secondary resources in order to come up with new ideas?
Little Blue RucksackPublished 7 years ago in GeeksDon't
I just stood there jaw dropped open staring into the darkness in utter disbelief as she stood there steady lying. Mocking me as a cold wind blows while flashes of light ignite in the night sky. She is always singing that same old song I thought to myself as she sat there strumming away. She don't think that I know she don't give a fuck about me. I can tell that because of the way she won't look into my eyes anymore. There's just something that makes me uneasy about the things she says because if you will lie about the stupid shit that really doesn't matter, what won't you lie about? I sit here with her, but she doesn't even really notice me. Outside I hear a storm moving in. It circles around over the mountains before it begins to shower everything that is not sheltered from it. The sky weeps as I struggle to stay awake. How much more of this will I take before I break? You just lay there lying. No shame at all on your face. And I wonder.

I've been a big fan of the Harry Potter series for as long as I can remember. I have read all the books and seen all the films. I've also read and written Harry Potter fan fiction. But I never really considered what my Hogwarts House would be until this year. Well, I wouldn't have a house, I'm a muggle after all. If I did have to be put in one house, then I would say it would be Hufflepuff as people all consider me to be friendly and loyal. I heard about Pottermore and saw people sharing what houses they were put into. I then decided to sign up to Pottermore and try the test.

I fight invisible monsters. Monsters only I can see and hear. They put the weight of the world on my shoulders. They expect me to solve everyone else's problems.

“You weren't there, you wouldn’t know” She says to me from across the room I am talking about a house plant She is asking about where it came from

Under the hammer Eyes are blind Where is the truth We refuse to find In front of your face The mask you're wearing Was put there by another

Anger and hope I guess that's all I'm made of, maybe that's how I cope I threw my heart into thunderstorms, hurricanes and tsunamis one after the other
Holiday Routine
I’ve worked hard all week From the papaya dawn To mauve dusk Counting the days Till I get on that flight Jumping in and out the shower
