Not long zamani people believed that in the future we would work less,have zaidi free time,and be zaidi relaxed.But sadly this has not happened.Today we work harder,work longer hours,and are zaidi stressed than 10 years ago.We walk faster,talk faster,and sleep less than awali generations.And although we are obsessed with machines which save us time,we have less free time than our parents and grandparents had.But what is this doing to our health?An American journalist James Gleick in a new book,Faster:the acceleration of just about everything,says that people who live in cities are suffering from 'hurry sickness'-we are always trying to do zaidi things in less time.As a result,our lives are zaidi stressful.He says that if we don't slow down,we won't live as long as our parents.For most people,faster doesn't mean better.

1.No time for the news
Newspaper makala today are shorter and the headlines are bigger.Most people don't have enough time to read the articles,they only read the headlines!On TV and the radio,newsreaders speak zaidi quickly than 10 years ago.

2.No time for stories
In the USA there is a book called One-Minute Bedtime Stories for children.These are shorter versions of traditional stories,specially written for'busy parents'who want to save time!

3.No time to listen
Some answerphones now have 'quick playback' buttons so that we can re-play people's messages faster-we can't waste time listening to people speaking at normal speed!

4.No time to relax
Even when we relax we do everything zaidi quickly.10 years zamani when people went to art galleries they spent ten sekunde looking at each picture.Today they spend just 3 seconds!

5.No time for slow sports
In the USA the national sport,baseball,is not as maarufu as before because it is a slow game and matches take a long time.Nowadays many people prefer faster and zaidi dynamic sports like basketball.

6...but zaidi time in our cars
The only thing that is slower than before is the way we drive.Our cars are faster but the traffic is worse so we drive zaidi slowly.We spend zaidi time sitting in our cars,feeling stressed because we are worried that we won't arrive on time.Experts predict that in 10 years' time the average speed on the road in cities will be 17km/h.

An Amuto one-shot
hope wewe enjoy!

‘You know, Amu…,’ he was sitting there again, on the ledge of the window, staring wistfully outside. ‘All of them think you’re gone. But I know better. wewe are alive, I know it. Somewhere out there, you’re thinking about me too, aren’t you?’
He was talking again, talking to the moon. ‘You’ll never admit it but wewe have already fallen for me,’ he smirked at the moon. No, not the moon. It was Amu’s blushing face that he saw and it was her voice that he heard, ‘Shut up!’ he didn’t know it was the echo of his memories because he thought...

A shadowy figure silently brushed the silken curtains aside as she slipped through the open window and stepped into the dark chamber. Passing a small meza, jedwali and a bed, the fox, mbweha quickly headed towards a cabinet that stood against the far wall.
Beaded necklaces hung above a oval mirror that was set in the center. Her eyes rested on a miniature strongbox half hidden behind the mirror.
Paying no heed to the deafening clatter coming from the oblivious guest downstairs, she skillfully picked the tiny lock and raised the lid. It was hard to tell what was what in the darkness, so she emptied it into...

Yo! this is the first poem i wrote with a sane mind xD do tell me if wewe like it =)

Tears,
a combination of helplessness and anger,
a combination of joy and gratitude.
what different meanings it holds!
sometimes of love,
sometimes of hate.
with what different feelings we cry!
but those tears are the same.
they dwell inside the eye,
ready to attack,
the peace of our heart.
to flood the face,
with undoubted upendo and care,
with undoubted anger and hate,
with undoubted pain and despair.
pain? yes, and despair too!
the breakdown of our heart,
the dawn of the truth,
leading to flood the face,
with our sentiments undoubted.

Act like you're not
okay when wewe are and
that wewe are when you're
not. Run barefoot in
the snow. Stand out
in the rain for an hour
and think about anything
and everything wewe can.

Fall in upendo with
riddles and things that
aren't real and the
way some stars
shine. Cry when
you realize that life is
just one big sham and write
one hundred cliché poems
about it, and then write one
that wewe actually mean.

Use profanity. Be the
one fucking introvert
in a room full of
extroverts and scream
shit just for the fun of
it. kumeza every goddamn
metaphor wewe ever dreamed
of and write them down
with your own blood.

Eulogize...

What do wewe want from me?
A tortured body?
A broken soul?

What do wewe expect to happen?
As wewe kick me down
As wewe rip me apart

Tell Me!!!!!!!!!!

What do wewe want to happen?
As I close my eyes
And take my last breath

I alisema I would stay
Till I took my last moment
But now I'm leaving
A victim no more

I lived with your love
The upendo wewe showed with your fist
I died because of that love
Your upendo was only Hate

Now someone else will take my place
Will live with your kind of love
Now someone else will receive your lies
Will know your treachery

What did I expect?
That you'd change?
That you'd learn to love?

What did I ever...

One afternoon, Sapphire sat in her room, on her bed, quietly daydreaming with her headphones in. Her eyes were glazed over, and she was in her own magical world.
Sapphire entered the sparkling cave in the middle of the forest. Her blue dress was tattered, and her misty pink fairy wings were damp from the moist, warm air. But she was feeling fine.
Sapphire took a few steps into the sparkling cave. It was made entirely of ice and crystal. Trickling water could be heard as miniature streams fell continuously from the ceiling. Icy stalagmites stood firmly in the cold crystal floor. Icicles hung from...

The air was still as if it were holding its breathe waiting for me as I approached the ledge. I could feel myself pushing back tears as I clutched the fragile locket in my hands; I traced its dainty designs with my finger. "So mom and dad are getting the divorce after all. I guess wewe were right E. I don't know why I ever doubted wewe about that one I mean it was obvious! I guess I tried to block it out like what happened......" I muttered looking up at the milky white moon. It seemed to look down at me with sympathetic beams of light. My hands gripped the marble ledge tighter. "Eliza it's been...

It’s the color of you
wewe always wore it
It’s the color we shared
As we hid from them

With it we showed our true selves,
Though no one cared
Our machungwa, chungwa book bags
Were our shields from some of the pain

We protected each other
But it wasn’t enough
We were like two machungwa, chungwa crayons
When everyone else was green

Then wewe left me alone,
All I had was our color orange
As they hit me
I took peace in knowing
wewe were in the machungwa, chungwa field in the sky
wewe always alisema was there.

The machungwa, chungwa of the sun set
Is your smile
Even though wewe left too soon

Orange…

Now it’s my color
My way of remembering you
Now I am the lone machungwa, chungwa in the rainbow
Without wewe here

I protect my own
Though I wish wewe were here

Now machungwa, chungwa is my color
A color for your bravery
A color for my survival

machungwa, chungwa will forever be our color
Even though death took wewe away

Forever machungwa, chungwa for you,
Sweet Cassidy.
Hello to the cold world, I was named Max Lee Moore kwa the parents who absolutely despise me. I am sixteen years old at the moment, will be turning seventeen on June 27th. But who gives a crud? wewe know what I receive for my birthday every year? For how old I am, like sixteen. I get sixteen whips from a belt. My dad doesn't live with me anymore to whip me, so there's my mother. She gets a kick out of every whip. It seems to make her ecstatic. Each whip equals to one of her evil laughs. She whips me any chance she wants to. It pains me so much that I'm surprised I haven't committed suicide yet....

Violently, the ground shook,
As the mountain exhaled black smoke.
Overwhelmed, they ran for cover,
Those left began to choke.
Cherished, were the possessions left behind,
Melted and scattered as ash.
Beloved, the children lost,
They couldn’t make a mwepesi, teleka dash.
Darkened, the cloudy heavens above,
Black clouds fell from the sky.
Covered, the people escaping,
With no way out they began to die.
Lost, the souls of the trapped,
A snatched half-chance at life.
Fallen is Pompeii;
Civilisation, upendo and it’s people’s cries.

Hows it going do wewe think?

Our story begins with an elf gliding through the trees. His lean body let him jump from mti to mti as if he were flying.
It was spring, his inayopendelewa time of the year. The daffodils and forsythia were in bloom, and the trees were once again turning green. He stopped on a particularly large branch and looked up into the clear sky. His dark blue eyes without the memories of the horrors of war, his skin without the scars of the torture it brings. For he was yet young, and all the time he has been alive has been peaceful.
He flew once zaidi through the trees. He loved...

I don't know about other people, but I've began to notice that we are relying on teachnology way too much!

Yes this swali has been suggested to most of us before (most commonly kwa our parents). But this time it's different. It is normal for parents to think that teenagers are obsessed with our I-pods, i-phones, laptops au other. This is normal because our parents didn't have things like this when they were younger.

Most adults where I live including my parents didn't have the internet growing up. They all had to either go to the librery for information au have a collection of encyclopidias...

Prologue
Mana was not your normal girl. Her inayopendelewa color was grey. She called all her teachers kwa their first names. Mana was not on the maarufu side, nor the unpopular side. She had her own ways, her own ways for everything.
Especially pets...

Chapter One
I sighed and plopped down on my kitanda with my laptop. After a long, hard siku of school, nothing was better than uandishi an essay, not! Such mean teachers!
Looking around, I try to find an animal to do the ripoti on. All I need to do is describe the animal's habitat, eating habits, and appearance. I kept looking. Wow, hard decision. I upendo being...
