"You can try to leave again, but in the end you have to obey." The creature said impatiently.

I clenched my fists as I stared into the glowing eyes of the creature.

The young generation of today all have one thing in common: technology. They seem always to be bent over their cell phones, tablets, and laptops, spending every waking hour “keeping up to date” on the newest information. Teenagers and college students often seem to spend most of their news time following unimportant things like who will get drafted in the NFL or what is going on with the Kardashians. However, there are so many other things happening that will actually have an effect on our

Rehtaeh Parsons was just another girl, living a normal life in Nova Scotia, Canada. However, unlike any other girl, she succumbed to a trauma that no one would wish on his or her worst enemy. She was gang raped by several boys at the age of just fifteen. Horrific enough as this was, one boy apparently took and released a photo of the young girl being assaulted to the public, unleashing a reign of bullying on Parsons.
Technology has been the best and worst thing to happen to our society.

At age eighty-seven, a woman that truly changed the world passes away. Not many politicians or peace fighters leave behind an all-enduring legacy, but Margaret Thatcher – the first female Prime Minister of Britain – did. Creating a radical revolution, she opened the doors of freedom for all, with firm principles and an agenda set in stone; accordingly, she earned a reputation as, ‘the Iron Lady’.

The story of Margaret Thatcher is an important part of the lives of young people today,

I found something new to live by that has left me breathless after reading. This poem gave me a new view on life and happiness:

After A While by Veronica Shoffstall

After a while you learn
the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn
that love doesn’t mean leaning
and company doesn’t always mean security.

And you begin to learn
that kisses aren’t contracts
and presents aren’t promises

At a time when sports were an outlet, a way to express myself comfortably, was the moment when I approached a situation with no fear and started my fight to become the person I am today and “bust out of my shell”. Sports have played a large part of my life. Since I was a young boy I have participated and succeeded in a number of sports; baseball, hockey, and soccer were the three organized sports I played, plus a countless number of games played in the backyard that my brother and I made up o

School shooting became for lack of a better work “popular” with the Columbine Shootings, and has become ever more popular in the last few months. These events have sparked gun control a controversy that has swept across America. While some Americans are fighting to retain gun rights as they currently stand others are fighting for additional gun control laws, the true issue behind school shootings is the lack of avocation for a better overall mental health in students which ultimately cause suc

My life has been nothing but a juggling act. I have a girlfriend. I go to college, full time. I'm an avid gamer. And, lastly, I'm a YouTube uploader/commentator (IdiocracyGames, if you'd care to look it up). I juggle all of these activities, every day, in hopes that, someday, I will graduate college, marry the woman I love, continue to play games as much as I can, and grow my YouTube channel so that people around the nation can see my content. I wish there was something that could ease the load
