A Disgruntled Salad Stick
Monday. It's not a bad view from the sea floor, I must admit. Mountains of coral form underwater forests in the sand that sway with the currents of warm tropical waters. Light shimmers in from the surface, illuminating the schools of fish which reflect every colour under the sun. Of course, I only know this from word of mouth because I unfortunately don't have any eyes. It could be an absolute s#%&*@!e for all I know.

Simplify Me
Nancy continued staring out her dorm window without a care in the world for the algebra test tomorrow. Her homework and class notes were laid strewn over her desk as if trying to piece together abstract art. A sigh escaped her lips. Her temples pulsed lightly, her eyes weighed down by the temptation of sleep she’d never get to have.

The Serious Busting of Mo-Hos
It’s a purple night, edged with the silvery streams of streetlights. The woman in camouflage patrolling the street raises a long, funnel-like object in the air. Her name is Jean. Most people call her, “Queen Jean, the Queen of the Mean.” It’s the best line on a resume teeming with military endeavors. Her partner, Tony, paces quietly six feet away before approaching her. He also holds a funnel-like object positioned tightly against the side of his camo uniform.

Clearly Over 25
“Approval needed,” the self checkout machine said. “Someone is coming to help.” In the UK, you can legally buy and drink alcohol from 18, but they have this “challenge 25” thing, just to let people hold on to their fading youth a little longer. Basically they’ll ask you for ID if they think you look under 25.
