It was the end of the semester, and our university was holding a small fair to celebrate. With dissertations and exams completed, everyone was making the most of the day. I walked around the fair with Joe, going on rides and playing carnival games. H...

Today was Midori no Hi. It rained in Tokyo and it made the dirt to be the mud. I decided that it was seemingly a good idea to be one with nature by playing in mud. I went to my favorite small park and walked in the stream. I wore the clothes I wore t...

Today is my 20th birthday, and also my one year anniversary of being on UMD. I gotta say, when I first joined UMD I was scared that people would start trying to hit on me or pry private information. I thought this place was where the "weird" people w...

Ah, nature. Where birds chirp. Calming rivers run. Trees grow in peace. And the chattering about a new building. ... Wait a minute. A group of suited men from a company walked along a dirty trail, scoping out where they should place a new b...

One of two alternate sequels to 'The Raffle' It had been two weeks since the fair and I was having real regrets. I had been friends with Joe for nearly ten years, and in that time we had never gone more than a couple of days without talking or texti...

Part 2 - Getting acquainted "I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier I'm Mike." It seemed like an odd formality given the circumstances of our meeting so I did not hold out my hand for a handshake. "Hi Mike, I'm Cody, nice to know your name."...

All week I planned on getting super muddy on the weekend. When it finally was Sunday I couldn't wait. I went to the second hand store and bought these leather ankle boots I'd been eyeing. I went home and got ready for my muddy fun. I had on a white p...

"Do re mi fa sol la ti do. Do re mi fa sol la ti do. Do re mi fa sol la ti do." Eric continued to practice his vocal warm ups as he was determined to win, and to a great extent blow the competition away, at choir regionals. He is the leader of the t...

The resort was always deserted at this time of year. Not the best time for her to top up her wages with tips but then she was happy sitting in the cafe bar with her book doing not very much. There was just the one person in there having a coffee. He...

My buddy, Don, was doing some landscaping. I'd gone over to his place to help him out. He had a black thumb, but wanted to have some colour in his yard. "I'm sorry about how this place looks," Don said when I arrived on my bike. "It looks fine to m...

The ringing phone jolted me from my thoughts. Since the Crown's finest had taken my phone and computer back to the station, my mind had been on overdrive. I knew I was innocent of any crime, and I was unaware of Brad's shady activities but the shock...

I swung the door open. My heart was racing. I didn't think my hands were shaking but just in case I thrust them in my jeans and leant against the door frame. Realising how forced casual and stupid that would look I stood back up straight. I kept my h...

"You want my hat?" Dan said. The beginning of a grin spread across his face. He shrugged and reach up to remove it from his head. He held it out. "Not that way up" I said trying to keep my voice even. I think it came out a bit shaky, but can't be s...
