Why an Akita?
It was around my one-year anniversary that a best friend of mine had told me he was selling puppies. I asked what breed of dog they were and he said, "Akitas." Honestly, I'd never heard of Akitas until that very moment. I paid no mind until I randomly brought it up to my boyfriend. He was ecstatic. I had no idea why until he told me he has raised Akitas all his life and listed what they were capable of.

The Gratitude Goblin
Once upon a time, there was a ten-year-old boy named Alec. Alec was a very spoiled and ungrateful little boy. Alec’s greed became his identity. Alec was going to turn eleven years old, and he had asked for only one thing for his birthday. Alec wanted a play station. All of his friends had one, so why couldn’t he?

The Price I Paid for Using My Voice
I had a friend tell me once that I’d definitely be the first to die in a horror film. Friends, classmates, co-workers, and even boyfriends often saw me as “naïve” or referred to me as the bubbly clueless girl. I know that I’ve been perceived this way for most of my life.

My Name Is Phoebe
Hi, my name is Phoebe. I am the ruling queen of my domain, and I'm also two. I have my two-legged loyal and faithful subject who I call Nani, running about my castle, caring for me and other my four-legged.... acquaintances? If even that. All I know about them is that I'm royal and they aren't. How do I know? They're forced to do tricks for treats! Forced! Peasants. Then there is my mom. She has only two legs, too. She lets me sleep in the bed with her, but does not like any of the peasants to sleep with her. That's another thing that makes me special. Mom likes to take me everywhere, likes to walk around a big puddle, to the place with all the food and treats, to the thing that washes whatever she drives around in and she even puts pretty outfits on me.

Give an "Aggressive" Dog a Chance
Operator: "Hello, Los Angeles County Animal Shelter. How may I help you?"Me: "Yes, I am calling to make sure that dog #A------- is in your facility." (Sorry I don't remember his actual Identifier).Operator: "Um, yes. It looks like he is here but I have to warn you, he is labeled as Aggressive. You may not be able to see him."Me: "Why was he labeled aggressive?"Operator: "He snapped at a volunteer, so he may be un-viewable."Me: "I'm on my way. Thank you."
