A Tale Of Two Identities

It all started on a dark and stormy night when I was sailing with my uncle, the famous Captain Will Hawk. The seas were high and the wind was strong, but with my uncle and I sailing the ship, nothing would be able to sink it. "Captain there be another ship approaching. Looks to be….. It is, tis the British. Uncle, what do you want to do?" I said standing my ground with a telescope in hand. "Lower the sails we can't fight in this weather." He shouted to the crew. "Emerald they are after me, now ye go hide. I promised your father that I wouldn't let you get captured by the British or by Captain Black. Now go find Mr. Smith and hide." My Uncle said. "Aye aye, sir" I said and gave him a hug before I ran off to find Mr. Smith.

As I was looking for Mr. Smith, I had to hide so that I wasn't seen, which I was very good at. I climbed up the ropes on to the mast and jumped down and grabbed onto a rope that was being thrust around by the wind. I landed on the deck and ran down to the bottom of the ship. As I was running I ran right into Mr. Smith. "Mr. Smith we have to hide my uncle is surrendering to the British, all they want is him" I said catching my breath.

"Alright come on me lady I know of a secret hiding spot that was created especially for this kind of situation." Mr. Smith said as I followed him. When we stopped all there was, was the wall of the ship. "Are ye sure this is the right spot?" "Aye me lady just watch." He said as he pulled the lantern and the wall of the ship opened up into a small room. After we walked in I felt the ship come to a sudden stop and that's when Mr. Smith shut the door and latched it shut."Mr. Smith why is my uncle surrendering? I thought a pirate is never supposed to unless it is a grave situation." I asked confused.

"Well, ye see me, lady, when your uncle was younger there was a woman by the name of Angela. She was the best thing that ever had happened to your uncle, he loved her very much. Yet one day exactly like this, the same thing happened and the British came after your uncle. He and Angela came and hid in this very here room. Since he wasn't going to surrender easily the British came on board and searched the ship for ye uncle. The British searched and searched, but alas they couldn't find your uncle until one soldier accidentally hit the lantern and the door opened. Your uncle stood in front of Angela ready to fight to keep her safe, but alas the solider hit your uncle on the head and knocked him out. That's how he got that scar right across his left eye. The solider took Angela and the British kept her as a prisoner instead of your uncle...

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
