    Stepping Down

    ((I haven't done this for quite some time, but this story has been sitting in my head for quite awhile. Let's see how this goes.)) Part One, Chapter One: Wattson’s eyes opened precisely two minutes before his alarm sounded, just as they did every morning. The old man leaped from under the...

    Cody's (revived!) Photography

    Hey guys! Remember when I used to do this? Well yeah. I wanna do it again. So here are some photos I've taken since...whenever the last time I shared with any of you was. Here's a fire! Playing with fires and exposure times is fun. Remember when Occupy Wall Street was a thing? I went to a...

    Globetrotting and Other Travel

    Recently, I've developed a sort of...obsession with traveling (and photographing) the world. I figured that there was no way that I'm the only person on this website that has, or wants to travel, so we could use a little space to discuss it. As far as places that I have actually been: I left...

    Winter Wear?

    Hey gang. The weather's starting to get colder, and I'm constantly being reminded of something: I don't have a warm jacket that fits me well. This might be an issue in the coming months. As of right now, I rely heavily on jeans, sneakers, and sweatshirts. So my question to all of you -- how...

    I Think I'm Dying this Week?

    There's this hurricane, Sandy, making her way up the East Coast of the US...schools and governments are closing, and states are declaring states of emergency. Man, that sentence sounds really weird. Anyway, I'm on the east coast, but far enough inland that I won't get rained out -- I might...

    Kony 2012

    Okay, so, I hate to be that guy, and I'm sure some of you have already seen this hit the internet like wildfire, but for those who haven't, here's a video. It's around 30 minutes long, but it's definitely worth watching. For those that just can't be bothered (but it's really good. Watch it)...

    Stress

    Everyone deals with stress. Maybe it' from work, or that car payment, or the rent, or school, whatever. We've all got it, and some are better at dealing with it than others. Typically, I like to run or walk my dog when things get particularly stressful. I also find keeping a journal helps, a...

    Good-night, Sweet Prince

    If you all hadn't heard the news, Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple, passed away. He was 56. It was pancreatic cancer that killed him, though he lived five years longer than most people diagnosed with that kind of cancer do. Whether or not you're a fan of Apple products, you can't deny he was a...

    Should I Get an Xbox?

    Pokecharms Community, You have been a part of my life for several years now, and, as such, I know that your opinion is valuable. (I am so sorry.) Anyway. This summer from my job, I've come in to a good amount of money, and since I have the fortune of not having to pay bills or for my food...

    A Forest Clearing Battle ('Cause Battling P_M is Cool These Days)

    (apologies for the super descriptive title :P But this is a private battle between myself and P_M, in case you didn't get the idea...) "Well," Cody said, sitting with his back against a tree, "Brian said to meet here...I think." The clearing was more oblong than circular, with trees tracing...

    Sempiternal Love

    So uhm. I know I'm not here very often, but it's summer, so that's going to change. This is a short (like, 2 pages) story I wrote for English class this year. It is very cheesy, and there are probably a few silly typos. I hope it makes you cry, or at least makes you sad. That was the goal xD Any...

    And then bin Laden was Dead

    The news broke not long ago, Osama bin Laden was killed in a small military firefight authorized by President Obama. It was not a joint operation with Pakistan; no Americans were killed in the operation; no civilians were killed. This has several different implications. It's clearly a...

    University, College, Whatever You Call It

    University/Uni/College -- whatever you call it your part part of the world, that's what this here is about. There's already the thread for High School courses, and that's not what this one's about. This is for College. Tertiary education, further education, continuing education -- whatever you...

    Verizon iPhone

    Next month, the iPhone is coming to Verizon. My family has always had Verizon, and probably always will. My dad uses a Blackberry right now, and I'm not too found of it. Both my older siblings have the Droid, which yeah, are nice and all, but, I think the iPhone still has the spot as my choice...

    Driver's Education and Driving in General

    I think a good number of us have either gone through it, are about to, or are currently going through it, as I am. I was just wondering how it worked for people in different parts of the world (and other cliches like that.) For us, in Maryland, we can get our Learner's Permits when we're 15 and...

    Avatar RP

    I apologize if this is up somewhere already, but I've looked, and just can't find anything of the sort. Now, the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender, is perhaps one of my favorite fandoms ever. I know through chat discussion that others would be interested in this sort of thing, but I was...

    Johto University

    ((Well, let's hope I get it right this time. This time, it's for me to tell a story, not to flatter people. Don't expect cameos :p. Hope you all like first person stories....Also, if anyone wants to edit this *coughPheocough* that'd be nifty ^^. Enjoy. Nice comments are always great, but tips...

    Battle on the Beach! Isabelle V. Chibi

    It was still early morning on the beach -- the sun had not yet broken the horizon. Daylight was creeping its way into the sky, but it was not yet bright enough to see very far through the mist from the waves. The tide was very slowly making its way in, and soon all the shells and other treasures...

    Service Work

    Or mission work, or community service, or whatever you choose to call it, really. Whether it be spending an hour at the soup kitchen serving meals, donating a can of food, donating an old coat, picking trash off the road, ringing the bell for the Salvation Army, or traveling to a different...

    Toy Story 3 (SPOILERS)

    Anyway, I've seen it, and I want to know if you guys have, or haven't. Or, if you're refusing to.' Personally, I think it was the best from the series. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the original, but 3 just might top it. I didn't feel like any of the new characters were too much, and I loved...
