But love and war will change everything...West Cork, Ireland, 1900. The year marks the start of a new century, and the birth of three very different women: Kitty Deverill, the flame-haired Anglo-Irish daughter of the castle, Bridie Doyle, the daughter of the Irish cook and Celia Deverill, Kitty's flamboyant English cousin. Together they grow up in the dreamy grounds of the family's grand estate, Castle Deverill. Yet their peaceful way of life is threatened when Ireland's struggle for independence reaches their isolated part of the country. A bastion of British supremacy, the castle itself is in danger of destruction as the war closes in around it, and Kitty, in love with the rebel Jack O'Leary and enflamed by her own sense of patriotism, is torn between loyalty to her Anglo-Irish family and her deep love of Ireland and Jack. Wrenched apart by betrayal, their world turned to ash, the girls' friendship seems all but lost as they are swept to different parts of the globe. Yet, they have one thing in common: a fierce and unwavering longing for Castle Deverill and all the memories contained within it.Publisher: Simon & SchusterISBN: 9781471135842 Delivery We aim to dispatch all items which are in stock on the same working day when orders are received by 2PM.

Data replication logically synchronizes backup data from one system to another to protect against data loss in the event of a disaster. The original system is referred to as the source while the off-site system is referred to as the target. Employing data replication software to replicate data to off-site storage, the source system is protected against the loss of files, folders and individual machines, while the target system protects against the loss of client data as well as the entire source system.
Data replication, an integral part of enterprise protection against loss of data, can be time consuming - but utilizing the right data replication software can make this task easier AND less time-consuming.
For enterprises seeking data replication software that can simplify the process of storage replication, Unitrends provides a powerful yet easy-to-use solution.

Still a great experience
Our room was very nice with a superb view of the keep.
My bed was uncomfortable and creaky. Quantity and quality of breakfast was very good but due to buffet servery was barely warm by the time it got to my plate. It might be best to go to the great hall for breakfast when it opens at 8am. On the plus side, you are in the centre of Durham with free parking outside the cathedral for your stay. We took advantage of the free castle tour (normally £5 each) and our guide Chris was very informative in a well paced and lighthearted manner. Despite the first comments I really enjoyed my stay.

Whirlwind tour of rainy Durham
Thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay, particularly breakfasting Great Hall.
Quirky Different and Brilliant!
Staying on the top floor of the old keep in Durham Castle for £40.
Absolute bargain. Would recommend to everyone unless you want full private facilities!

Brilliant for centre of city. An amazing location with the bonus of free parking on the Castle Green
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Shared a twin with my daughter who was taking an exam at the University. Lots of stairs so if you have a bad back like me you will find it difficult, we were right at the top of the tower.
Bar was empty when we tried it the first evening but the barman was friendly and chatty.
The breakfast was basic but good. Only criticism was that the plates were cold.
Amazing ovation for exploring the town. Felt quite priveleged. Free parking on Castle Green was a great bonus as parking in Durham is a nightmare.
Overall an 8 out of 10. Would I use again - yes.

loved the castle but not our cell room
Our castle stay was ruined by our room, H10 was directly above a very large extraction fan which disturbed our sleep all night, we could n't leave the window open for the noise so then the room became stuffy.
and the view of a stone wall right in front of the window, made it feel like a cell, so avoid rooms close to H10., the first room we were given K52 was up several flights of stairs. six or more and was just to much for us to keep climbing up and down so if you have any fitness issues whatsoever avoid the K rooms. request a J room as these were lower with not as many stairs, The castle itself was beautiful and excellent breakfast with lots of choice so its a shame our room spoiled the experience and if our room had been better then it would have been amazing value

The room is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. The food is delicious and the cocktails are amazing! We have been able to relax and even though there was a problem with our tour, the hotel has done everything they can to take care of the problem and fix it. The service in every area of the hotel is impeccable and they have all gone above and beyond to help us.

Have you joined my Newsletter list yet? Click here, or sign up in the sidebar. I'll email you when I publish a new post, with a few extra thoughts. My email list is where I get super vulnerable, and share all of my darkest secrets. Not really. But I'm definitely friendly and not spammy.
Fact: Thrifting is not fun until suddenly it is.
The magic happens when you find that first piece of clothing that makes your heart beat a little faster, and causes you to break out into a slight sweat until you have examined the piece and concluded confidently that there are no tears, snags, rips, holes, stains, or pilling. And in that moment, you feel like you can do anything.
Or at least, you feel like thrifting a capsule wardrobe for a year is something you don't have to fail at.
This color block sweater was one of the first items I found, and I love its boxy cut and fitted short sleeves (you'll have to trust me on that). A few weeks later, I found this tweed jacket (it's tweed + a jacket so you know I love it).
When two thrifted items come together in one outfit and work so harmoniously, I might as well be wearing a solved algebra problem, for all the satisfaction it brings me.
Outfit details: Color block sweater: thrifted/$4, Tweed jacket: thrifted/$2, Black corduroy pants: AG/old, Black boots: thrifted/$9, crossover bag: Modcloth/old
The past few weeks I have been super busy, trying to finalize my second product line for my paper shop, and just catching up on things that were being neglected (not that I ever let laundry pile up or anything…).
Creative outlets are necessary to my health and well-being, and sometimes I wonder if I really need a blog and an Etsy shop to satisfy that need.
But then I realize that is just the practical, reasonable side of my brain speaking.
The truth is, my wardrobe is a solid foundation for my other creative pursuits, and while it is not necessary to blog about my style challenge in order to benefit from it, writing about it and connecting with readers keeps me accountable, and forces me to think about my clothing habits a lot more.
And my clothing habits are only proving my theory that getting dressed in clothes you love, gives you a daily advantage.
I am pretty real sure that my Etsy shop wouldn't progress if I lived in pajamas and oversized t-shirts. And I'm pretty sure I would't love working on it as much as I do if I didn't feel so creatively fulfilled in other areas of my life.
So how's that for a creativity endorsement? It's Monday. And you can make this week as creative as you choose. Whether that means not eating the same thing you always eat for breakfast, finding a solution to a small problem, finding a way to enjoy the mundane chores on your to-do list, writing down your thoughts on being a mom, sending a letter to a friend, or finding a new work out.
BE CREATIVE TODAY. It's for your own good.

This reminds me of being a kid. I loved this show. So cute and fun. I love watching this with my kids.
Anything that had to do with Winnie the Pooh I loved as a child! This was such a great movie and they did a good job at recreating the story through the ride at Disney World.
A very adorable sweet movie with the never ending saga of Pooh trying to get all the honey he can. It was very funny with the encounter of the Bees. I love this movie and have added it to my growing Pooh collection!
Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree is such a wonderful children's book it is very well illustrated with a bear #WinnethePooh who meets all kinds of pals while trying to get honey from a honey tree. It follows all their relationships and adventures. "Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree" is such a cute book to read your children and a true classic.
Pooh gets into a big jam when he climbs to the top of a honey tree and meets a swarm of bees who disapprove of his "bee" havior! Now it's up to his Hundred Acre pals to save their sweet-toothed friend!
Pooh has another sweet adventure as his hunger gets the best of him. Thankfully he has his trusted friends who come to his rescue and try to figure out how they can get him out of his latest predicament. A valuable lesson to learn is that friends stick together and can be counted on when the going gets tough.

The Camberwell Electrics Story
Camberwell Electrics was first established in 1952 serving the community with old-fashioned service, together with quality products and competitive prices.
One of the co-owners of Camberwell Electrics, Graeme 'Hawkey' Hawksford, said "I started working in Hartwell in 1973 - then it had four banks, four butchers and three greengrocers as well as a Dickins Supermarket".
Camberwell Electrics was originally started in 1952 by Gus Janson who had been a pilot in the war, and returned first selling vacuum cleaners and then moving on to start the family electrical store.
Over 61 years later we have stood the test of time to prove that people still today trust us to give them the same high standards of customer service and quality products as we did in 1952.
Even though we had a large fire in 2003 which extensively damaged the premises in 2003, we were able to rebuild the store to include larger showrooms, new areas and a larger variety of products.
Today, Camberwell Electrics has developed a great reputation to become leaders in Air Conditioning, Kitchen, Laundry, Home Automation, Audio Visual and Solar Appliances.
Our focus is to offer our customers convenience of one location with a huge variety of products for all their appliance needs.
Graeme says `We have had our share of action, including our famous fire. At one stage we had a ram raid on Sunday night, repaired the damage, only to have another one the next Thursday.
On another occasion the front door was sledgehammered - but the thief conveniently dropped his driver's licence - he got done!'
Graeme puts the success of the business down to the staff and their commintment to looking after their customers and the company's relationship with the local community.

Out of it
What the hell was wrong with me? Okay, from now on I'm staying away from this girl. She made me act slightly out of character, Jack luckily was the only one who noticed. It was only slightly but I had to get in form and that meant flirting with someone else. I never showed interest in anyone. Thats who I was. Right now, there was only one option for me out of this dilema.
Kate, I had to get Kate to see me while I was with Melody. Wait, wasn't it Music next. She was in that lesson. I left the classroom for English forcing myself not to glance at Melody. I had done that twice this lesson while deep in thought about what the hell was happening in my head.
"Um, Ray..." Melody mumbled tapping my shoulder. I turned to look at her. Everyone was moving about getting their instruments. Me? I was taking a seat at the grand piano like always. As I looked at Melody I felt my heartbeat jump a bit. She looked so panicked. So innocent. Thats when Kate came over and fell into my lap wrapping her arms around my neck.
"Oh, Rayee" she sang snuggling her face in my neck. Melody was unable to hold back her look of pain. Kate sat up properly and finally looked at her. "Who are you?"
Melody opened her mouth to speak but I jumped in. "She's just a new housemate" I said to Kate calmly. I pushed her off my lap and she pouted.
"Why you so mean to me? Oh, by the way new girl. Two rules. One, I'm the queen bee what I say goes. And Two, no one and I mean no one can touch Ray" she said with a smile. "Bye"
She then skipped/strut/walked off. Melody simply turned and walked away. That was one problem solved but then... why did I feel so sad?

We went to MusicfestNW. Here's what we liked.
We went to MusicfestNW. Here's what we liked.
From dance parties in the middle of downtown to benders in dirty bars to amazing sets at the Crystal Ballroom, the Music Festival Wizard only scratched the surface of Portland's MusicfestNW.
The Music Festival Wizard just returned from a quick three day flashtrip for MusicfestNW in Portland. Here's a few shots from our Instagram feed…
MusicfestNW, set to kick off today, has so much happening that it's hard to take it all in, but the Music Festival Wizard are sure going and try to take a big bite of what's happening.
The Music Festival Wizard drop in on FYF Fest 2013 in Los Angeles, California.
Going camping in the woods of Canada has a whole new meaning after visiting the legendary Shambhala Music Festival last week. Shambhala brings in ten thousand fun-loving fans and pairs them with hundreds of DJs to create an experience unlike any other.
Vagabond hitchhiker and beard aficionado, Chuck Manley, returned recently from Canada's Shambhala Festival and was kind enough to send a few shot overs.
Welcome to the Music Festival Wizard 50 where we rattle off the previous month's most popular fests.
It's not often that a festival veteran can go to a festival and completely have their mind blown
The Festival Guy checks out this year's edition of Lightning in a Bottle.
Does anyone have more fun than The Festival Guy? He's kicking off the summer in style with a epic trip to Sasquatch.
After waiting for what seemed liked years, the countdown to Coachella finally ended and the gates opened up. As festival-goers entered the fair grounds…

Sunni's barrow, a castrated male pig, won grand champion Oct. 5 at the State Fair of Texas in Dallas. Sunni, a senior at New Braunfels High School, said she has been showing pigs her whole life, but this was her first time to win grand champion. She received $12,700 from the barrow's Oct. 7 sale. Sunni's father, New Braunfels Vice Principal Mike Reimer, said he knew from the beginning that there was something special about Shake.

Halos to DRL
Hey all, I recently put in my new Halos on my 2001 Spectra Blue GT. As well as tails, interior lighting, etc., but that's not what this post is about.
I was wondering if anyone knew a process to change my DRLs from my high beams at a lower amperage to my halos?
I understand that the DRL function is the high beams at their lower power, but I wanted to simply rewire it so that my halos will be on during the day, instead of my highs. I also want the halos to continue to be on at night.
As of right now the halos are wired to the parking light function, which would be fine except for the fact that switching on my parking lights also illuminates the rear lights, which isn't acceptable during the daytime.
I initially thought about simply splicing in the halos with the high beams so they would both be on, but then I luckily realized that would mean my high beams are on with my halos at all times, and that would not be good for the other drivers.
I also considered having the halos on their own switch routed to my switch panel inside, and just having to switch them on (and remember to switch them off) when I want them on and off. Then I would just do the DRL disable mod through the fuse box.
However, I need to know If there is a simpler way that I can go about this.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

Canada's Census Is Back And Canadians Are Losing Their S**t
The list of classic stereotypes that the world associates with being a Canadian includes liking maple syrup, loving hockey and enjoying free healthcare.
But being excited about data gathering? That's a new one.
And yet that's what the world will think when it gazes upon these selfies that Canadians took with their census forms, positively elated over having to fill out a mandatory government form.
It's embarrassingly amazing:
Canadians' "enthusiasm" for the census, which was made mandatory again by the Liberal government, appears to be behind the Statistics Canada website going down for 45 minutes on Monday night, according to CBC News.
The forms, which contain online access codes for the census, started rolling out on Monday:
Thanks Canadians for responding in such high numbers. The site was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm, but we are back! https://t.co/SnxAmqTRSr
— Statistics Canada (@StatCan_eng) May 3, 2016
Of course, people weren't happy about that:
Shine on, you nation of data-loving nerds. Shine on:
Twitter also gladly rose to the occasion and delivered some golden commentary on the census excitement:
Just called someone for an interview.
"Hey Sean, can I call you right back? I'm filling out the census."
Canadians, man.
— SeanFitz_Gerald (@SeanFitz_Gerald) May 3, 2016
Live footage of Canadians hurrying to fill in the census right away. pic.twitter.com/qx8hqEZL2H
— Paul Fairie (@paulisci) May 3, 2016
We're Canadian enough that we had a family argument over who gets to do the census
— Doug Saunders (@DougSaunders) May 3, 2016
At least this is one stereotype we can all get excited about.
I cannot explain how much fun I had filling out our census.

This Month's Picks
You're Welcome (CD)
A brash title for the sixth full-length from Wavves and deservedly so, as Nathan Williams gives us the gift that keeps on giving in the form of sleek, poppy choruses over raucous garage rock. Continuing in the same vein of 2015's V , Wavves adds a bit more sonic exploration this time around, emulating fractured versions of your favorite artists, whether it's the mechanical glam stomp of "Million Enemies" coming on like a demented DEVO and Gary Glitter hybrid, or the title track that sounds like Weezer convened with mid-aughts Animal Collective. The most unique iteration of Wavves thus far, You're Welcome might be the smartest punk album of 2017. More
Stubborn Persistent Illusions (CD)
Do Make Say Think
Longtime Toronto-based collective Do Make Say Think continues to crescendo their place into the post-rock pantheon. In a genre that is most frequently described as "cinematic," Stubborn Persistent Illusions definitely has its share of widescreen moments. "Bound" opens with twinkling arpeggiated guitars and bubbling synths over shuffling drums, continuously working up to a big, wordless refrain that radiates pure joy. It's Explosions In The Sky by way of Neil Young's ranch, a pastoral sound that sounds like it was captured in an open field with a billion stars blinking all around. However, it's the diversions into farther, more abstract spaces that set DMST aside from the purely major-key histrionics of their contemporaries, as the very next track, "And Boundless," changes course into jarring rhythms and sharp blasts of guitar and organ before settling into a sustained melancholia. It's not quite pure dissonance, but an angular arrangement that's closer to Swans than Sigur Rós. Elsewhere, "Her Eyes on the Horizon" is a folk jam heard from the other room, just before walking into the glorious sound of the band achieving critical mass and blasting off into the heavens. For those who might think there's nothing left to be done in the world of instrumental rock, Stubborn Persistent Illusions widens the palette and raises the bar. A constantly engaging and evolving work of art. More
Undercurrent (CD)
On his sixth album in 13 years, Matisyahu says, "This is the first album I've made that is produced by myself and the band without any outside forces involved. It's my baby. No compromises, full artistic integrity." Undercurrent underplays the stylistic flourishes of his previous albums and is a fairly subdued examination of Jewish faith through mellow reggae beats and old school styles. Written and produced by Matisyahu and his longtime band, there's a tightness in the sound and experimentation that comes from real camaraderie and friendship. Matisyahu gives the band enough room to stretch and go in directions that aren't really expected of reggae. Maybe it's connected to the holy aspects he's trying to examine in his album, but there's this spiritual sense that the band taps into that no one else can quite do. "Step Out Into the Light" starts off with a type of reggae vibe before it goes into a spaghetti Western-ish riff that's dramatic and spacious. The lyrics themselves are almost free verse as he scopes a type of imagery that veers into the surreal and subconscious. He's channeling some real emotion through his work without ever sounding contrived. "Back to the Old" is a direct retelling of Abraham's story after God's trial. But Matisyahu makes the story more of a spiritual journey than the Judeo-Christian roots of the original by combining his careful lyricism with music that's more emotional and less reggae than anything he's done before. Undercurrent seems to be Matisyahu dealing with grander spiritual issues than he ever has before, but it's done so sophisticatedly and sensitively that it never fumbles. More
Genre: Reggae
California [Deluxe Edition] (CD)
Blink-182's first album after Tom DeLonge's departure was a massive hit and reached number 1 on multiple charts, including the Billboard 200. Maybe Matt Skiba (formerly of Alkaline Trio) brought a new dynamism and style of singing to the band to freshen things up just enough. But this new deluxe edition isn't some cheap way to cash in on an already popular album. It's an expansion featuring songs that couldn't fit on the initial release and newly recorded material that compliments the album's narrative, so it's more of a "Director's Cut" of an already excellent album. "Wildfire" might be one of the best tracks they've made. Its frenetic and constant energy is barely contained in the classic pop punk style and it has the youthful recklessness that made us fall in love with them in the first place. If the production was a little rawer, you'd be convinced it came from Enema of the State . On the other end of the spectrum, there's the acoustic version of "Bored to Death." Instead of the 100mph, breakneck speed and force of the original, the acoustic version has a breathless, freer sound that feels like a complete re-imagining of the track. It's as close to coffee house folk as Blink-182 will ever get. "6/8," their most aggressive track to date, feels like it could have been from another band. Its anger, bitterness, and strange 6/8 time signature sounds like it fits closer in the world of proggy metal than pop punk. The deluxe edition of California is a perfect expansion of an already great album. The extra tracks add enough meat to make the album and turns it into a whole other beast. It ranks among the best of their entire catalog. More
The God Box (CD)
David Banner
"Hip-hop hasn't changed. I think the environment has and hip-hop is just a reflection of that," says rapper David Banner. And he makes it clear that hip-hop has a place in America's current political climate. Following his excellent mixtape Before The Box , The God Box has been in the works for years. After being delayed multiple times, it's finally here. Tying it in with a lecture series he's been doing across the country, David Banner rejects the worst habits of mediocre hip-hop and makes an album that embraces deep thought, political ideology, and black identity. It rejects the stereotypes that have formed around the biggest hits of modern rap and embraces a socio-political message that seemed to be radiating from the genre in the mid-2000s. The album's first single, "Who Want It" featuring Black Thought of the Roots and the trio Watch the Duck, is an angry, loud manifesto and letter to 2017. The fact this album took so many years makes sense as it explodes with energy and rawness from the first bang of the first track. It's only a taste of The God Box ; an album ready to be a cry to arms for the socially conscious and the open minded. It's not just what hip-hop needs, but what music needs. More
Genre: Hip Hop
Avrakedabra (CD)
Morgan Heritage
In an era where Drake uses Jamaican producers and dancehall riddims in his hit singles, the nostalgia and desire for classic reggae is more apparent than ever. Although those sharp drum kicks, the dubby echo, and that bouncing rhythm are appropriated by artists all the time, the sunshiney, feel good vibe of Bob Marley has still been missing. But Morgan Heritage has that roots tradition right in their name. The songs are rooted in the foundation of classic reggae, but they mix it up just enough with synthesizers and modern production tricks to avoid this from sounding like a fossil. Taking styles of hip-hop and borrowing from the genre that borrowed from them, reggaeton, Avrakedabra is arguably the happiest, most upbeat album of the year. Following their Grammy Award winning 2015 album, Strictly Roots , the new record is an incredibly eclectic mix. "Selah" is less roots based and full blown dub. From the distant, mechanical sounds of the drum to the drops of disco whistle sounds, it's a modern take on the classic Jamaican sound. The vocals are pure modern R&B with rich layers and harmonies that contrast perfectly with the mellow rhythm. "Reggae Nights" is pure joy and a testament to the power of music. Its instantly addictive melody kicks in with lyrics that are instructions on how to listen to this album. Let your body and inhibitions go and dance to this. The music will take you over and you'll soon forget all your problems. Avrakedabra is bound to get your blood pumping, your heart going, and your body moving. More
Genre: Reggae
All The Beauty In This Whole Life (CD)
Brother Ali
It's been five years since Brother Ali released his last album, Mourning In America And Dreaming In Color , and his latest record, All the Beauty In this Whole Life , couldn't have come at a better time. With the country's cultural and political climate as it is, Brother Ali's soulful, insightful lyrics and delivery are a much needed salve. "Own Light (What Hearts Are For)" is full of the emotional desperation many of us must be feeling in 2017, but it is also hopeful and motivational in a way that doesn't patronize or sugar coat. Atmosphere's Anthony "Ant" Davis' production on "Never Learn" creates a dazed, crawling funk with subtle percussive touches and cool R&B rhythm guitar. Brother Ali starts with a vulnerable, introspective chorus, full of rumination and hurt, but quickly switches to the vocal dominance of his powerful, kinetic verses. The tone of Ali's music shows that while he may possess a confidence and faith that keeps him pushing forward, he too is not without pain and confusion. More
Genre: Hip Hop
Pollinator (CD)
Blondie are back and just as groovy and fun as ever! Filled with disco-punk attitude, catchy guitar hooks, and creamy keyboards, Pollinator finds the band in their fourth decade and giving all the downtown cool indie rockers that have come along since their debut a run for their money. Original members Debbie Harry, Chris Stein, and Clem Burke have perhaps matured in perspective, as heard in "My Monster," which points to some of the trivial insecurities of youth, but the sonic sensibilities of the band haven't changed much from their original material. With its muted, funky rhythm guitar, pulsating bass line, and infectious vocals "Fun" captures the magic of classic Blondie, while still feeling fresh and contemporary. While Pollinator is certainly a heavily layered, highly produced album, Debbie Harry's vocals still feel pure and unaltered, and never masked or buried by the lavish backing track. More
This Old Dog (CD)
Mac DeMarco
How does Mac DeMarco keep churning out such consistently likable albums? This Old Dog is one of his strongest releases yet; DeMarco may have a goofball persona but these songs are coming from a heartfelt, warmly intelligent, and emotional place. Sure, there are some sublime party tunes on here, but the highlights of the album are when DeMarco delves into dreamy, deeply romantic territory on tracks like "One More Love Song" and "Moonlight on the River." This Old Dog has so many solid songs it's hard to single out even a few as essential listening. Instead, throw this record on and immerse yourself in Mac's singular world. More
Slowdive (CD)
Legendary shoegazers Slowdive return with their first album in two decades. Sharing a name with their self-titled 1990 debut LP, this new self-titled full-length is a welcome homecoming. The band is as compelling as ever and the new Slowdive LP feels like it was recorded back at the height of the shoegaze era. In short, it's already a classic. Expect swooning, hazy, mesmerizing, moody loud rock that sounds like it was channeled from outer space — or from a lovely daydream. More

Lost In The World With The Lights On
By Tobias Bass
The day had just begun and my mind wasn't wrapped around the idea of getting out of bed. My body wanted to lie, and my body wanted to stay in the position it was in, asleep. My eyes were shut and I could only feel the radiant heat from my bedroom window, as if there was candlelight, and it was placed all on the outline of my body. The fear had taken over my body, that I was late for school, and that soon the rush of the none-wanted day would begin. The room would be a bright blue, as the sun shined through the blue cotton curtains that failed to shade me.
My eyes opened to the room, which was different in many ways. The light that was shining was different, and my room was full of red light. The red light was something I had never seen before; the light was different from any red I have ever seen. There was no one for me to ask what was going on. I slid my head on my pillow so I could get a better glance at the alarm clock. I was at least two hours late for school, which was weird because my mom hadn't run in and pulled the blankets off of me, waking me to the sadness of society. As soon as I was thinking this, I heard my mom's feet slam on the hallway carpet. It was a slam that symbolized something was wrong.
I sat up in my bed with all the energy I had in my body at this time of the day. My mom burst into the room and charged at me with her arms spread out. I swung back thinking my mother wouldn't yank me off the bed in the confusion of the morning. But this time she grabbed my head and looked me in my eyes. I couldn't get a good honest look into hers, but for some reason I felt like she was searching for something. "Son, you need to go wash your eyes right now." She stuttered. I didn't ask what was going on since when she told me to do something I did it.
Once I was in the bathroom, I looked into the mirror. I tried turning on the lights, but no light bulb was bright. So I did what I could and began looking myself deep into my eyes. The first thing I noticed was the ring around my pupil; it was yellow and wide in diameter. "Mother!? What is going on?"
I asked with a much-needed answer. My mother walked into the bathroom and turned on the sink. She pointed and I knew she wanted to make sure I washed my eyes. I cupped the water with my hands and splashed them on to my wide-open eyes. I repeated this a couple of times, until she turned off the water. I looked up at her, and she had the most worried look on her face. "Mom?" I asked again. She looked me into my eyes, and I finally saw what was wrong with her. Her eyes were red, as if they were bleeding, and she had no choice but to look. "Toby, go get your bag you use for football, and fill it with clothes!" She told me this in a manner that I knew was only the beginning before she was yelling.
I walked into my room and pulled out the bag. Inside of it was dirty workout clothes from when I played. I took those out immediately and began to place the clothes from my closet into this bag. I had a feeling that this wasn't going to be a trip to the family's, but we were leaving for a long time. So I grabbed some more things from my dresser, like pictures that I couldn't bare to lose.
The house began to shake, and the windows began to rattle. Earthquake? We haven't had an earthquake here in over three years, unless it was time for an earthquake. I could hear the car in the driveway start up, and knew that it was time for me to hurry. I zipped up my bag and ran to the front door. I placed my hand on the front door; I had to pull it back from the heat it was putting out. My hand was burnt from touching the door; I noticed that the same red light was oozing its way into the house. With one quick jab at the door knob the door swung open, and my brain couldn't absorb all the things that were going on at once.
The smoke from everything was hurting my lungs, the noises of the planes above were slapping against my eardrums, and this was something out of a movie. The neighbor's house was on fire, and halfway gone, along with their car. The road looked as if it was melting, and when I glanced up at the sky the red light was coming from the huge mushroom cloud up above. It was clear this was something, which I myself couldn't explain. The passenger door to the car swung open, and I could hear my mom screaming out for me to hurry and get in. As I was running to the car, I heard a loud clapping noise. Before I knew it I was laying face down thirty feet from my house.
I was out of breath, but when I was close to the floor my lungs had less smoke to inhale. My back hurt and it felt like the whole football team crashed into me when I wasn't looking. On the floor I couldn't see my mother, but I could hear her crying. I twisted myself so I was on my back now looking at where my house once was. What sat now was a lump of pure burning wood, and memories. I got up to my feet as fast as I could and jumped into the car, which was a couple feet in front of me. I closed the passenger door, and my mom was wiping away the blood tears from her face. She put the car in reverse and began to back out of the driveway. The ground started to shake again, and the car along with it.
The fear in my eyes and the fear in my heart were too overwhelming. I felt like I could literally die at that moment. We were now driving down the freeway and all we could see out the window was the burning buildings with the red light. "Mom? What's going on?" I asked her on the edge of tears. She was gripping the steering wheel with everything she had, and she looked over at me. "We are at war," she stated. I couldn't believe my ears; I couldn't believe the ideas and thoughts going through my head. "With whom?" I asked. There was a pause. She gulped, "Ourselves."
She stomped on the brakes hard, as we came up to a car pile up. We had no way to get around, and we had no way to go through. She sat there and she wanted to tell me it would be all right, but she would be lying. "Toby, for years the government has been keeping this from us. They were trying to act like nothing would ever happen." My mom was trying to explain, so I asked no more questions for I knew that she would let it all out. "The Uprisers." There was a pause of complete silence I couldn't wrap my head around what she was referring too. Who? What are they? Are they human? She was catching her breath. There was less oxygen from being too close to all the smoke and cars on fire.
We got out of the car to look closer for another way, but we couldn't really see much. The smoke was starting to look like a red fog, or a red mist hovering over us. She began to speak but what she was saying I couldn't hear, and understand; all I could do was read her lips. Her mouth was moving so slowly. It was like nothing else really had a sound anymore. It all sounded like jets and explosions.
My mom walked over to the side of the road, and she sat down on a curb. I sat down right next to her and took her by the hand. "This country is lost - lost in a world with the lights on." As soon as that sentence left her mouth, a helicopter emerged from the red clouds. It landed not that far from us, I quickly stood up. My mom stood up right behind me. I looked at her with the sign of hope, that maybe they were good, like us. My mom began to run to the helicopter, along with everyone else trapped on the freeway. I followed thinking that if I got there before my mom I could save her a spot.
I ran as fast as I could, and I wanted to be there first. I was in front of my mom along with many others. Closer and closer the helicopter became. There were men standing around the helicopter, with guns on their hips. "People! People! Stop Running!" One of the men shouted out. I ran to them along with everyone else who didn't listen. One of the men grabbed me by my arm and picked me up, handing me off to another man on the helicopter. "Sir my mother!" I cried out. But he didn't listen; he was still trying to keep everyone else from hopping on the helicopter. "Mom!" I yelled out. But I couldn't see her anymore, not with all the people.
Soon the area where I was being held started to get full of young people, people of the new generation, the ones that will have to re-build this country. I knew what was going on; they were tossing out the old, the people that lived their own lives already.
One of the men grabbed my face and sprayed some liquid into my eyes. I put my hands over my face and screamed, for my eyes were now burning. I felt the helicopter lift off the ground, and I felt the wind through my hair; we were flying. I managed to open my eyes and saw nothing but red clouds, nothing but emptiness. I lost my mother forever. The feeling in my stomach could only be compared to when your deepest secret gets revealed. I, as a human being, felt lost and felt alone. I felt like I was being pushed around in a room and not being able to do anything back. Life was the bully; war was its tactic; and my losing the only thing I had was the funeral. I now know what my mother meant by being "lost in the world with the lights on." We were blinded from what was here, until it came out to attack.

False Promise
"In my dream we kissed,"
You boast so happily,
"The image is so clear,
I'm glad I can remember so vividly,"
"A dream is a dream,
Sometimes a picture is taken--
To savour what will never happen again,"
"Aren't you happy too?"
"Are you oblivious to the extent that you hurt me?
It's painful to even think your name...
I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"For loving you!
I hate it!
You have your fun,
Make a false promise..."
"...What false promise?"
You sound shocked at the accusation,
"You promised we would be together;
Then gave me another reason to hate you,
Which, stupidly, I can't force myself to do...
So I'll break my own heart all over again,
Because I can't bring myself to blame you!"
Then you have nothing more to say,
And I'm left;
To pick up the pieces of broken glass--
That shield the photograph you cherish so well.
Your love cuts deep.
