Creative Writing: Moving To Portland

307 Words2 Pages

It has been only a month since I moved to Portland - I used to live in Portsmouth NH before that. I live in an apartment right across from the Back Cove trail - love running on the trail and watching beautiful sunsets. I didn't get a chance to explore lots of restaurants, but I tried Central Provisions, India Palace, Green Elephant, and Ocho - none of them have disappointed me. I'm so amazed that there are lots of restaurants in Portland - haven't even scratched the surface :) It's really cool that you went for your undergrad in Portland. What is your favorite thing to do in Portland? Please feel free to give me some tips on good restaurants :) I'm really glad that you like Indian food. I love to cook some of my mom's recipes

    Kristina and Trey gathered all of their little belongings mostly caring about the lockbox containing about $3,600 of the finest mexican glass a.k.a meth. Rushing out of their little apartment as soon as possible after seeing a wanted picture in the newspaper of kristina stealing money illegally with a fake id. She thought it was odd that she had very very little remorse about getting up and leaving without saying goodbye to her baby that wouldn't even recognize her, her mom which she stole her identity and money from. It didn't phase her and she kept loading what little belongings she had into Trey's mustang. They rushed onto the snowy freeway still tweaked as usual, but exhausted from no sleep like usual and running from the police and the mexican drug lord that they owe and weren't planning on paying back.

  • Creative Writing: Nederland

    To say that the town I grew up in was small would be an extreme understatement. The miniscule dot on the map that is Nederland, Texas is often referred to as the armpit of the world by its young adults that “can’t wait to get out of this place.” In Nederland, you know all of your neighbors, never lock your doors, know everyone’s personal business, shop at local boutiques and eat at mom and pop Mexican food restaurants in your free time, and keep a countdown of how many days you have left until you can run far away from Southeast Texas. That was once me. During my first fifteen years of life, I always felt very similar to the massive orca whales in SeaWorld that were too monstrous for their tiny tanks they were refined to.

    Another day was so much like the one before, and the many before that. He walked the house and grounds, slowly, letting time pass as it must. Alone, present but not present, for can one truly be there if no one knows of it? Like the saying he’d heard more than once over the unmeasured time of his existence: If a tree falls in the forest but no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? He ambled through the back yard, pausing under the tree from which he’d been hanged, cursing his tormentors, vowing to haunt them for all time.

    The Counsel’s Elders poured into the feeble balcony of the Great Hall; each straggled shuffle contributed to an apathetic rainstorm of footsteps, only to be muffled by a thunderous roar as they sat down. Lazy floodlights panned over the row of grey-hooded figures. Below the Elders, a young man knelt within a painted circle, tears streaming across his face. A guttural chant began to cut into the stale air like a sickle: “Born by the Sins of Gemini, we await the humble sacrifice . . .” * * * * *

    I pull my sandwich out of my Spiderman lunch box and look around at the circle of boys and girl around me. Taking a moment to let their loud, cheerful chattering wash over me, I think about the old me I’d left in Chicago. How surprised she’d be if she saw me now, hanging out with so many new friends, becoming an actor and loving every minute of it. She’d never have had the courage to start a new activity with a group of strangers; yet, here she is, only months later, doing just that.
