NOTE: This Basque translation of my poem was provided by Arkaitz (Gekko223) through his Fiverr service.

Suak lurran zehar zabaltzen da,

odol-kolore ibaiertz margotuta bezala,

brotxa batekin

eta kolore askoko bala akriliko kargarekin armaturik,

Egizu margolaria pinta dezan bere azkenengo ehundura geruza askoko mundu honen gainean.

Gris errautsa lehen ziren eraikinetan

eta gorpu marroi eta berde motelen gainbehera

dira lur honetan erreina dezaketen errege bakarrak

Fedegabe eta adoratzaileen hildako gorputzez forraturik.

Loreek bakarrik ospatzen dute borroka amaitzean.

Fedegabeek negarrez babesarengatik, zerbitzariak otoitzen bere jainkoei.

Haiek bere banderak aterako lituzkete bakeagatik

Eta oparotasuna haien danborretako taupada bihurtuko litzateke

Eta laguntza bila doazen eskuak bakarrik haien espatak aurkituko lituzkete

Haiek dute leialtasuna, baina ez harrotasuna edo burujabetza.

Sustraiak odolarekin freskatuko litzateke alde guztien adortzaileen odolez.

Ihes egizu erregutzen dizut!

Eta ezeki ezazu propiektu zentzugabe hau

(Horma gainean dena)

Bakarrik irudi lazgarri batekin gerra pintatu ahal dute

Eta ez hitz abstraktu edo ideiez azaldurik.

Edozein ulermenetatik, ezin izango zara inoiz suntsiturik.

Heriotza kezkatzeko gauza bakarra izango litzateke bere mezularien ordez.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
