Fall and Winter | Keisha McGovern

As the leaves fall from the trees, and the trees are now bare, we know fall has come, and oh how we care. Everyday I see people walking, they walk into the leaves on the ground. The weather is now not so warm, the days seem to be getting darker. Winter will soon arrive, I know this because its getting colder at night and in the day. The temps have dropped from 70-60, and even lower than that to 40-30. Oh how i love winter, what would Christmas be without snow. The only bad part to that is the roads for when I have to travel home. People are out in there winter coats, frost on the windows yuck. Fall and Winter are here, so stay clear because its going to be a long year. We never know what the weather is going to do day by day, all we can do is watch the breeze and just enjoy.

Midsemester | Keisha McGovern

As I look around at everyone, I see people start asking each other " how are your grades" and people fretting over if they are doing good, or bad. Everyone starts wondering when they aren't used to not knowing there grades like they used to. Even myself I wonder oh how am I doing, what do I need to do to improve them, is there enough time to bring them up? Every college student wonders how there progress is inside there classes. And when we are not doing so well we then start freaking out and stressing because we don't think that it will come up. School is very important for many of us, and when we get bad news we don't know what to do with ourselves, and it makes us feel like we haven't worked hard enough, when in some cases we really have, but just made mistakes. Life is full of challenges and we learn to figure out our paths. So as I leave I can still hear voices and whispers behind me and it just makes me smile, and wonder what exactly are they saying now.

Haunted House | Keisha McGovern

It was a Friday night, the wind was blowing, darkness all over. We walked through this dark scary hospital with all these people pretending that they were dead. People playing roles from every scary movie. The saw guy was riding that little bicycle, scared me and everyone else,because the person was so small and we couldn't see in there. Strobe lights were flashing and loud noises all around us. I think I fell like three times because these scary things came out of no where. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! it was quit spooky and normally I'm never scared, but this time i was very afraid. My friends around me were way scared, they were running into walls, and holding onto me and was just ready to get out of there. Alls i could think of was which character was going to come around the corner next. Hellllpppppp!!!!!

Love Fails | Keisha McGovern

Have you ever wondered where love will take you, I look at the people around me holding hands, kissing, being happy. I once had this, I have dated this guy since we were fifteen, everything has gone so well until the last year. Love has its ups and downs, and we each go through a phase where we don't know what we want or who we want to be with. Last year I went through this, I broke it off with my boyfriend and thought my life would be so great without him but really it wasn't, I realized hes the one I wanted in my life and to spend the rest of it with. Well I recently had to move for my schooling and he had to stay back home to finish his, we agreed we would make it work. Life was going so well at least I thought, until about two weeks ago I get a text message stating " were done" Can you imagine the reaction a girl would have after seeing this, totally dramatized. My heart fell from my chest, how could this be what did I do. Chaos in my heart, the day became dreary, oh how can I go on not knowing what went wrong. I discovered it was the same thing I went through and with me being gone it didn't help matters. Trust is what I see the problem is and the people he was around and still is around. I pray to god everyday " Please guide me to make things better," this is all I can do, leave it in gods hands. I'm giving him the time he needs and pray for the best. As the days go on I try to leed a happy positive life, knowing things have a way of working themselves out. As I walk around the town, I see all these happy couples wishing mine could be the same way, but what is life without its ups and downs. Who would we be if we didn't have steps to take. As I wonder now is if my quotes will ever be true. Love when you mean it, Live for yourself, Laugh when you're happy. Love will we ever know what it could be? I will always be here waiting for him to realize just how happy we can really be.
