Our Last Day of School. I can't believe it. This is my last day of school, I thought, not sure how I felt now that the long awaited day was here. Stepping out into the beautiful sunny afternoon, heading toward the group of waiting yellow school buses I breathed a sigh of relief. I was glad school was finished. Throughout High School like a ship at sea,...
To live according to one's ruling passions without fear or shame, what greater freedom could there be in all the world? My name is Halima Abdirizak and I'm a young Somali-Canadian woman living in the City of Montreal, Quebec. I was born in the environs of metropolitan Brandon, Manitoba, to Somali immigrant parents. My whole life I've felt like I had a foot i...
My name is Jennifer Angvariationu Toke and one source of frustration for me in this life is the fact that I get confused for a lot of things I'm not. It gets really annoying sometimes. I'm not Mexican or Middle-Eastern, not that there's anything wrong with that. I am a member of the Sioux People. That's a Native American Nation for those of you with your hea...
I had been doing nude modeling for the local art school for about a year. It was good money. Helped to pay my rent and give me a little beer money. And I kind of liked it. To be truthful, it turned me on. I guess I found out that I'm a little bit of an exhibitionist. Often I'd go home afterwards and whack off thinking about being looked at. I'd even gotten l...
Author's note: Thank you to all of those who read "Yukiko's First Christmas" and asked for more about Yukiko and Matthew. I hope that I haven't disappointed you. As many of you already know, Valentine's Day, and the more recently-created White Day (March 14th), are widely celebrated in Japan. For more of the history of Valentine's Day in Japan, please do an...
A valuable lesson that many of the more popular kids in school, especially the jocks, never seem to learn, is don't piss off a geek. Sure, you're pretty or athletic and popular now, but time is a thief, and a relentless thief at that. Down the road those attributes will be taken from you, and you'll find that the geek you picked on is still a whole lot s...
We lay on the floor next to the bed, holding each other in our arms, not wanting to move. We were still breathing deeply from the wild sex we just had. I removed one arm so that I could run my fingers through her long hair. Her eyes were closed and I looked at her face, admiring her high cheek bones, the shape of her mouth and thought how beautiful she was....
I'd like to thank the 30,000+ readers and everyone who made constructive comments to Annie. I was never really satisfied with it, so I've tried to rewrite it and I hope I've made it better. Your comments are welcome and appreciated. *** I pulled into a parking space away from the door, got out and locked my Ford Fusion, and walked into Jerry's Bar. It had...
When Callie and Darin pulled into the club on Sunday, fifteen minutes before noon, there was already a car waiting. It was an older, rundown model and reminded Callie of her own car, which was still serving Junie well. As she and Darin were getting out, a short girl left the other car and said, "Callie? Or Christa?" "Erin, hi! You're early." "Hi!" Erin sa...
Chapter 6: Prayer Club ———— Unsurprisingly on Friday morning I'm not functional. I'm tired and exhausted from my emotional outburst and my mood is at an all time low. It must be a miracle but I manage to drag myself out of the house and to school. Home doesn't feel safe right now and I don't trust myself to be there. Besides, I don't want Kate to be su...
