Sink or Sing
Last, year, I thought I was going to have the time of my life on my birthday, December 1st because it was also the night of our annual work Christmas party. If someone had told me that it would be the most embarrassing day of my life, I would not have gone to the party and cancelled my birthday that year.

If the ship had known why it was headed for the new land, it would have refused its mission a long time ago. Too long ago to even remember the faces that it left behind at the shore, where hefty men, set in their frame, and set in their ways, held back grieving mothers in tears, from their children as they walked on board. Once the last child's feet stepped onto the ship, the remaining men followed suit without haste, and what looked like to be the leader of the group, wearing tan pants with a cream cotton shirt and black shawl, signaled to the Captain to leave. But the ship knew nothing concerning the destiny that awaited its trepid young passengers, and so compliantly set sail along the path that so many other ships had gone before, heading straight for the Atlantic Ocean.
