The home, at least, looked modest. Drooping roofs and some tiles of the roof remained humble, meek. The entire structure spelled “average” or “regular.” Vergara peered out of his window in his cramped study. All of the details had to be in place to make it seem as if he lived his life as an everyman. That he headed the ACA did not mean anything when it came to showing his support for the people in the organization. Yes, he wore nine hundred dollar shoes and three thousand dollar suits, but he cast off such footwear and apparel to appeal to his constituents.

New Girl: Chapter Twenty-One
Lucita sat in class, bored out of her mind. World Geography. She had already taken this class in middle school….and passed. She was supposed to be in Honors World History. But no, someone had messed up her homeschooling paperwork, all because someone misfiled it. All of her credits, everything she had worked so hard for, gone, leaving her to repeat classes she had taken. What a rip.

Dog Thirteen, Eeyore
Eeyore June 19, 2023 Almost all my litter mates are gone now, and I understand what is happening. We are all going to new humans. I don’t know what happens when we go with new humans, but I know that new humans come, they look at us all very closely, they pick us up, handle us in a variety of ways- some nice, some not nice- and either put us back in our area, or say, “I’ll take him!” Or her. Depending on the dog. Everyone keeps putting me back in the area, and I don’t know how I feel about that. I have some confusing feelings about the whole matter.

New Girl: Chapter Twenty
Rebecca and Jason pushed their way through the gathering crowd. Rebecca looked at Lucita, who, for once, seemed speechless. Her eyes were big behind her thin purple glasses, and her mouth was open. Blake and Lucas were really going at it. Finally, Lucita caught sight of her and approached them, shoving everyone out of her way.

To all my fellow creators
Why do you share your work and journey with your social network? Nobody cares about what you do in your life. ⏩This! How often do we come across this statement? The argument for instant gratification that we gain while sharing glimpses or content about our journeys being detrimental for us, in the long run, is completely valid. The validation that we crave from external realms often stems from a lower sense of self-esteem.

New Girl: Chapter Nineteen
For once, Luci was happy to be at school. Everything was working out. She had a boyfriend (although it still stunned her how easy that had been), and her two closest friends were speaking again. She felt like she needed to contain herself, but she couldn’t. Nothing could possibly destroy her good mood.

Old Enough
Waking up in a whole new world is the kind of dream a lot of kids have; all I can say is be careful what you wish for. I am more than lucky that my first sleepover was in the home of someone who has taken care of me and Paw-Paw since I was so small that she changed my diapers. That's a bit embarrassing now that I think about it. Pearl never talks about my mother and father, she has said on the times I have inquired, "none of my business child." If I was ornery, which I was when younger, on very rare occasions of course, she just turned on cartoons for me and walked away saying, "mmm, mmm, mmm". I love Pearl. As I have said many a time, I wish we were family.
