Where Are We Going To End Up? - Short Story

I moved side to side, my heart pounding, my eyes filled with tears. Tears rolling down my cheeks, I tasted my tears fearlessly, the weird taste of one's own tears irritated me. Rolling over my king-size bed, I felt huge discomfort and agony, in a place I should have felt nothing short of real comfort. I could feel my brain cells almost evaporating into thin air, into another universe, another galaxy other than the milky way (if you're brushed up on your knowledge of the solar system, you'll know what I mean) . There was a knock at the door. Mum had sent one of my younger sisters up with a packet of Oreos and a glass half full with strawberry-flavoured milk. I gave her the usual nod and she walked off obediently. I have a funny relationship with my sister you see, I can communicate to her what I want or give her an instruction without opening my mouth. The severity of what I am saying needs no verbal echoing, but a gesture seems to do the trick. Now that she's grow

My Confidence Scares Women!

Let me start of by saying I love myself, I love how I look and I love how I am as a person. I am self -critical of my actions at times, but for the most part I love what I do and how I do it. You might have smelt an air of confidence whilst reading the first two sentences of this post, however you will only know of my full confidence if you appeared in my proximity. Pretty much everyone I come in contact with notices my confidence and 8 times out of 10, commends me for it. See the thing is, men love my confidence. I always get told by men that more women should be like me - willing to work hard like me, to be able to turn heads without wearing any make up like me, to get the respect I get single handedly. Getting compliments like this and feeling good on the inside, has contributed to my abundance of confidence. I walk as if my shit don't stink, but deep down I know it does - and so therefore, I am confident, but humble too. And that's another thing men seem to pic

London Is Not As Wealthy Or Prosperous As The Third World Thinks It To Be!

London is where things happen, its where people make serious money, have a good time and come to live when things are unfortunate. It is a modern hub bursting with innovation, excitement and opportunity. However, this is the point I'm going to make, its the extent to how much these things are true and for whom, that is often disregarded. Just because there's a label on the front of a tin, it does not mean that the contents within the tin will be in accordance with the label. The same goes for London. Yes, it's a fantastic place to live, but its hard living here. I am lucky enough and privileged enough to say I live in a beautiful 7-bedroom house in a very good area. Not everyone can make this claim or boast about it - and there lies the root of the problem - not that everyone isn't living in a spacious 7-bedroom house - but that people don't even have their own room, or let alone a house. Yesterday, I visited one of my female friends, who is 23 years of age and h
