Missed connections
Missed connections Missed connections are the favoured method for lovelorn, hopeless romantics who believe in the fleeting encounters of chance in public. I can confirm this from Un experience, as I diligently checked missed connections daily, despite faithfully sticking to my regular routines. I can't speak to their success rate. Still, given their presence on Craigslist, the go-to online platform for job searches and finding inexpensive furniture for twenty-somethings, they seem ripe for quirky, indie films featuring said twenty-somethings in search of something more profound than a cheap futon.

Music's charms . Runner-Up in Melodic Milestone Playlist Challenge.
I wake up in the silence of an early spring morning and hear white noise humming at different frequencies. The radio turns on. I remember my first clock radio. Programming a device, that avoided winding up the Big Ben alarm clock and listening to the clang, was a revolutionary concept. Local radio stations played repeating sets. They inspired a subconscious education and established local cultural norms.

Kyle now just turning nineteen having all the features of a handsome, sandy haired blue eye young man as he turned down the hallway towards the front door and the parking lot where his beat grey mustang sit there. “Night under the stars” Proclaimed the school posters, advertising the senior prom that he had seen all over school, it was his senior year at Kaimer High school named after the man who established the first school in the town. He sighed and tried to keep his pace up against the on coming traffic as each student freshman or senior was trying to get out of their in a hurry. “Finally” He thought as he reached out and grabbed the bar to the parking lot exit. He opened the door and took a deep breath of the cold November air. As he headed to his car he looked over towards the football feild, where his best friend was finishing practice.
