MIDTERMS ARE FINALLY HERE + WHAT LIVES IN THE ATTIC?

It actually amazes me that midterms are finally coming up, since I was wondering when they where going to actually start. So calculus is the head kicker for me and then that's all going to be followed  mostly likely by accounting and business law with marketing ending the midterm craze that I have right now. But I can just feel it being dragged out for three weeks, which isn't really my cup of tea, I'd rather they all finished in a week, so I won't have to worry about it so much.

However today during accounting I now know what I'm going to do for Halloween, well at least I know what I'm going to be. This will make me go to Hobby Lobby for some supplies. Speaking of crafts, I bought this very nicely patterned fabric, which means I'm going to make a dress out if it. Will post the final result after I'm done making it.
  

I so want to write another chapter of AstroStar with Bliss and Evian but I can't bring myself to do it, so for now they are just either going to be long happy stories that end horribly or just weird stuff no one ever thinks about.


I love breakfast foods.

In a coffee shop, there is the intense smell of coffee beans roasting before being brewed. This smell drifts out of the shop and down the street, passing people early in the morning and dragging them in for a cup. Even though it is early in the morning, people are out and about with their cups of joe in hand. Some add cream and sugar, other order it just black. There are even different flavors that people drink that emit such fantastic smells.

Some people carry apple danishes stuffed with cream cheese or powdered donuts. These pastries are wrapped neatly in napkins and wax paper, waiting to be devoured by the holder. The air brushes against them blowing away sugar or almonds. There taste being sweet and satisfying, leaving the consumer wanting more. The first bite being ever so sweet, that it can make ones teeth ache and taste buds explode from the flavor.

The sun is still rising above the city and is beginning to over look the skyscrapers that occupy the land. These steel, glass and concrete structures dominate the landscape, drawing peoples eyes to them. They love the attention they get, from being tall and withstanding. Some look better than others, but still pride in what they are and what they represent. Without them the business world would be in a whole bunch of little houses that no one could care less for.

People enter them from below and make them active by travelling about inside them. They are an organism that can only thrive with others organisms operating it and making it whole. Without people these steel giants would not exist and with them they are the being that make them feel so alive. They compete in design and height as well as for locations to be built on. What will happen to them once there are no more people to maintain them, will they stand together and let the wind blow through them.

Underneath the ground there is a system of tunnels that go this way and that, carrying different things to building. So even carry trains which carry people, who than go to the surface to work in the big steel giants. These trains are like snakes that travel through a burrow of an animal it haws eaten. It makes the ground vibrate every time they pass somewhere, emitting light into the dark passages is travels through. Occasionally stopping to let people off or on, it rarely sees daylight only if it's route goes out through and open area or at the depot where it rests for the night.They run on rails and electricity that is supplied by wither coal or wind or water.

Without power these machines would not be able to operate the way they are designed to.
Just like everything else in this everlasting concrete jungle.

THE END.
Please leave some feedback it would be much appreciated.

Squirrels live in the attic as well as bats and spiders and dust bunnies.
