I was about to leave my algebra class one day when the teacher asked me
a question. "Could you do help me out with my rollbook program?" he asked. "Sure,

time, I was approached by some of the other students in my class.
"Hey, could you help us change our grades in algebra?" They asked. "I

I could get paid for something very simple. "Alright. I'll do it. What were your
last names again?" I said.
The next day my algebra teacher ...

The couple proceeded to leave; the rage on his face more than apparent. He walked ahead, allowing the door to close behide him, almost as if he had been in the restaurant alone. This felt worse than slap to her face. Her eyes seemed to focus on each step as she followed her companion out of the restaurant. She gave one last panoramic gaze behide...
Spring, , the mere words make me tingle all over with a flood of warmth that leaves you smiling and laughing all at once. As a child was so magical to me and all though I have gotten older the warmth and love that were experienced are still fresh like a fragrant flower in my mind.
