The Lemon Tree

April 18, 2010 God

You’ve Got a Friend in Me

“They” vs. Me

December 17, 2009 eating disorders

You can see it in their faces. You can see it in the way they excitedly drag their luggage, you can feel it in the extra bounce in their steps, you can hear it in their high-pitched voices. All the students are preparing to return home for the winter break, and they just cannot wait [...]
