A Happy Collision
It feels like I'm floating. Not floating through the air, but on water. I open my eyes and realize I'm floating on my back in the school swimming pool. I must have nodded off for a second, losing myself to the sound of the flowing water as my...
A movie and a dream
After we all got our tickets and drinks we made our way to the room down the hall where our movie was showing. When we got inside I was very surprised to see a really good turn out for the movie with a large crowd of teens and college...
Drifting into a wonderful fantasyland

The fun before the movie
"So whats been your favorite stunt on the show so far?" Chris asks with an expectant look as we make our way to his house. I rub the back of my head and shrug my shoulders as I say with a slight chuckle, "Well. I actually haven't seen the show...
Telling the truth and sharing the past
