It was Christmas morning. The living room smelled like pine tree. a scent I like to describe as the smell of Christmas season. I had just opened a gift from my parents. It was an ipod. I was so happy.


Grocery Bag Story

I've been sitting here all day near a cash register. Some of my brothers have disappeared. They were taken and stuffed with food products. Then they were carried outside never to be seen again. I am afraid for I am next. They're filling me with food at this very moment. If any bag finds what I've written, get out while you still can.


Grocery Bag Story (enhanced version)

What is this strange place. There seems to be food everywhere and humans walking around. Some of my brothers have disappeared here. It seems like a peaceful place. There are lights everywhere and music is playing. But humans will never see the horrors I've witnessed.

The herbs were grown in class when we were learning how to live more sustainably. The recipe tasted pretty good. I probably might have needed more basil though. By growing these herbs in class it saved some money. Having your own herb garden could save a lot of money.

I also believe that humans are destroying themselves. I also think that there's intelligent life out there in space that knows something of great importance that we humans have never learned yet.
