other things as well. For example, “ ...Eastman perfected the first commercial transparent roll film which made possible Thomas Edison’s motion picture camera in 1891” (Bellis). George’s other inventions included Kodachrome (color film) and the Brownie camera, which targeted kids. It was easy to use and only cost one dollar. Therefore, it was a big hit. Sadly Kodak was found to have infringed on twelve Polaroid Corps patents in 1976. It lost seven of the court patents, but soon bought twenty…

flavor anyone could imagine. They stopped in front of the wall, and, like usual, Jarvis stared up at all the flavors of granola bars. They had thousands of brands in so many different flavors -- chocolate, mint, peanut butter, plain, oatmeal, raisin, brownie, apple -- every flavor ever invented seemed to be on the wall. Jarvis stared in awe. Suddenly, a flavor caught his eye. Blueberry watermelon cream. Jarvis assumed that this was a new flavor since he had never seen it before. He immediately…

I’ve been spending most of my time with Craig, now that Kenny and Tweek are constantly together. Craig and I were sitting on my bed while he was smoking another cigarette. Bebe’s parents went on another vacation and trusted their daughter. “I don’t want to see those people, even if it’s to get fucking smashed. I’m not feeling great.” Craig drawled as he blew smoke from his mouth. I shook my head in agreement. The rumor mill around school is that literally everyone at South Park High was going.…

For many visual artists, it is common knowledge that in order to gain popularity and to create a name for ones self they need to put themselves out there in the world for all to see. Whether they are a painter, a writer, an installation artist, or an actor they all require a pedestal to stand on and have their work be seen; for many the first steps on to the pedestal is by capturing their work through photography.

“If you don’t go the hospital you are going to die,” my mom screamed at me in September of my freshman year of high school in an attempt to get me to go to the hospital. I had slept and violently shook the entire ride home from school while riding in my mom’s car. My sleeping and constant shaking, as well as my burning forehead, convinced my mom that I had a high fever. I looked at her and then said, “Okay, if you think I am going to die, I’ll go.” My mom backed the car up in our driveway,…

I think possibly, you have this coming to you, my dad said when he went to school it was Christian based education, and everyone in his class was Christian. In my class I’m the only Christian. There is 6 Muslim girls, 4 Hindu’s, 8 Sikh 's, I could join the atheistic society, Drama society, Music society, Sikh, Hindu or Muslim society, however I can’t join a Christian union as the teacher said their isn’t a call for one, I’m calling. I think they call it positive discrimination, however all is…

I saw his face. I heard his voice. I would look in the mirror and could hear him saying “you’re worthless” and “your weight split the floorboard” and “nobody will ever love you” and “you need to lose weight.” So I did. I began eating a one cosmic brownie a day - 290 calories and that was it. If I ate something else, I hated myself for it. I felt weak. I felt hopeless. I felt worthless. All of Dale’s insults became my reality and I had nothing. The weight was not coming off no matter how little I…

Once the bump of the railroad tracks bounces me out of my leather seat, I know I am close to seeing the familiar smile of two of the most important people in my life. With the final turn, I prepare myself for a day of being pampered. This mundane drive occurred thousands of times, yet each and every time I drive up the rock-wall lined driveway that my grandmother has tirelessly spent puzzling together, I am filled with the recognizable joy. Opening the door release the fumes of bacon and eggs…
