I FINALLY CAUGHT UP WITH FONTAINE

dale play, soquete

 ˚‧⁺ 𝐄𝐥 𝐥𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫 𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐬 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐚 𝐞𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐥 𝐲 𝐥𝐨 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞 𝐬𝐮 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐚.

En un lugar apartado del bosque, donde los árboles forman siluetas que recubren el sitio y solo deja ingresar la luz del sol entre las copas, se encuentra una casita. La entrada es un camino de piedras que llevan directamente a un jardín de girasoles.

Es un lugar tranquilo, lejos de la ciudad. Bajo el arco de la entrada se encuentra una nota que dice: "Afuera de los problemas, se encuentra un sitio de paz."

"ℯ𝓁 𝒽𝒾𝓁ℴ 𝓇ℴ𝒿ℴ 𝓈ℯ ℯ𝓃𝓉𝓇ℯ𝓂ℯ𝓏𝒸𝓁𝒶 𝒸ℴ𝓃 𝓁𝒶 𝓈𝓊𝒶𝓋ℯ 𝒷𝓇𝒾𝓈𝒶 𝓅𝓇𝒾𝓂𝒶𝓋ℯ𝓇𝒶𝓁"

Esperaría entonces, a que la melena rubia se perdiera en el interior de una casita sencilla. Un sitio que no tenía muebles en absoluto, que no estaba habitada por nadie... más que por recuerdos.

"ℯ𝓁 𝓂𝓊𝓃𝒹ℴ ℯ𝓈 𝓉𝒶𝓃 ℊ𝓇𝒶𝓃𝒹ℯ, 𝓁𝓁ℯ𝓃𝒶𝓇ℯ́ 𝓊𝓃𝒶 𝒸𝒾𝓊𝒹𝒶𝒹 𝒹ℯ 𝒻𝓁ℴ𝓇ℯ𝓈 𝓈ℴ𝓁ℴ 𝓅𝒶𝓇𝒶 𝓉𝒾"

El cantar de las aves no sería la interrupción del silencio en el lugar, sino el susurro de un par de pasos que subirían por los peldaños de piedra.

AlHaitham presionaría sus labios para retener la risa de un último mensaje que fue enviado por el rubio que estaba justo en el interior: "Si me navajean hay un Dios que todo lo ve"

"𝓅ℴ𝓇 𝓉𝒾 𝓅ℴ𝒹𝓇𝒾́𝒶 𝒽𝒶𝒸ℯ𝓇 𝒸𝓊𝒶𝓁𝓆𝓊𝒾ℯ𝓇 𝒸ℴ𝓈𝒶 𝓈ℯ𝓇ℯ́ ℴ𝓂𝓃𝒾𝓅ℴ𝓉ℯ𝓃𝓉ℯ ℯ 𝒾𝓃𝓋ℯ𝓃𝒸𝒾𝒷𝓁ℯ"

Lo difícil que podía ser convencer a Kaveh para hacer algo sin decírselo, sería algo que se guardaría como recuerdo por el resto de su vida. Al igual que, incluso sabiendo lo que vendría, el nudo en su estómago y la incomprensión del estallido de emociones que no tenían una expresión abierta.

"𝓹𝓸𝓻𝓺𝓾𝓮 𝓵𝓸 𝓾́𝓷𝓲𝓬𝓸 𝓺𝓾𝓮 𝓭𝓮𝓼𝓮𝓸 𝓮𝓼 𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓮𝓰𝓪𝓻𝓽𝓮 𝓮𝓵 𝓻𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓸 𝓭𝓮 𝓶𝓲 𝓿𝓲𝓭𝓪"

Su deseo estaba en rediseñar esa expresión que tenía en su rostro cuando se mencionaba un infortunio del pasado.

Que al escuchar "Fontaine" no desembocara en el pensamiento de un abandono o de una vida a la que no le fue permitida su acceso; era, ahora, un indicio nuevo. Un significado que le ofrecía para volver cálido su corazón cuando recordara la cita en un lugar silencioso.

La promesa de un futuro en conjunto que ambos ya habían acordado solo en palabras antes de dormir o conversaciones entre tazas de café.

Porque aquí, en un sitio marcado por el pasado de Kaveh, podían iniciar un futuro dejando la sombra atrás. Juntos.

 

Ante la comprensión y la clara dirección de la situación, el peligris esperó a que Kaveh saliera de la casita, esperándolo entre el jardín de girasoles que bien representaban al sol personal que estaba en el interior.

¿Un Deja Vu de la situación?

Solo entonces, cuando se encontraran, se agacharía y apoyaría en una de sus rodillas y le mostraría el contenido que guardaba el interior de una pequeña cajita.

Definitely noted i wouldnt travel anywhere in spring or summer anyways. Oh? Ill have to build her for sure then. Give me something to do while i wait for bronya to come home & seele to re run. Im honestly starting to care for genshin less so its fine by me. Sounds like people just wanted to start fires? Or were being some type of silly? Welcome back from your vacation i hope you had fun i was waiting to reply til you got back

OH THATS SO COOL CONGRATS ON THE HRT!! i wanna go on hrt sooooo badly one day but well see how doable it will be in poland. tho i am optimistic about the future since the current extremely conservative ruling party has lost a LOT of support over the years theyve been in charge so. theres hope! and good luck with that, i luckily will get a chance relatively soon with that school trip i mentioned. tho im not 100% sure if im gonna be confident enough to be in a swimsuit in front of my class since i dont even particularly like most of them. and yeah it really is like that with languages sjfgkkgkd the only reason my spoken english is good is bc i had a LOT of one-on-one lessons with a native speaker so i went through a lot of practice. and thats ok sjfjkfj its extremely common for foreigners to not be able to pronounce polish names [and for a reason. hell language even for us] so as long as you even try nobodys gonna be mad ajjdkf. tho in my personal case its very funny bc my birthname is literally identical in a lot of languages so ppl just accentuate it incorrectly. and soften the r. i unfortunately travel mainly in spring or summer since thats when i have the most free time, but im gonna try to convince my mom to go to more colder places [i miss tromso that was my ideal climate]. anyways, yeah thats a good idea!! seriously claras counters are so unbelievably cracked since 1. big big dmg, actually her main source of it, and 2. unlimited. everytime she gets attacked she immediately counters [after her ult, she also does this for allies attacked twice] so yeah i got her very early [30 pulls on standard, my beginner 5* was bailu] and since got her e1 and rec 10/10. im waiting to get bronya as well and since i dont have kafka guaranteed and won 50.50 twice in a row im not very confident ab getting her, i hope that if i lose its at least gonna be bronya. or welt. welt is cracked. i actually uninstalled genshin from my pc a while ago since i stopped playing altogether but i might come back from fontaine since im always curious ab the new regions. tho i did completely ignore the chasm coming out when it did. idk didnt excite me that much. and yeah i also think thats the case but at the same time Hm. average day in warsaw. AND YEAH HI IT WAS SO FUN OH MY GOD I ACTUALLY HAD A MEETING YESTERDAY WITH A COUPLE FRIENDS FROM CAMP + AVERY SINCE IT WAS AVS BIRTHDAY AND. AHHH. BEST CAMP IVE BEEN ON I THINK. also one of my campmates had hair dye so i have red hair now. fun!

My Grandpa’s Diary- Pete Rakiewicz

Keep in mind this is boring. My grandpa didn’t do much during the World War. He didn’t jump out of an airplane, drop bombs, or kill anyone. He owned a monkey named Cheetah (because she cheated at cards) and killed time. But war isn’t always insteresting, sometimes it’s boring one side.

But I found his diary and it’s one of the only things of his other than his wartime harmonica than I have left of him. I thought I’d share it with you.

CRAWFORD: WOLF PACK WEEKLY: December 9-15, 2019

BY: Bob Crawford, Hartford Wolf Pack HARTFORD, CT - The Wolf Pack (14-4-2-5, 35 pts.) swept three games in three days this past weekend, to move into a first-place tie with the Providence Bruins in the Atlantic Division.  On Friday night in Springfield, in the last of five straight road games, the Wolf Pack rebounded from 1-0 and 2-1 deficits to score the last four goals of the game, in a 5-2 over the Thunderbirds.  A line of Danny O’Regan (2-1-3), Vinni Lettieri (1-1-2) and Phil DiGiuseppe (0-2-2) combined for seven points in that game, as the Wolf Pack snapped an 0-3-2-0 drought.  On Saturday night, the Wolf Pack improved their home-ice record to 9-1-0-2 in their return to the XL Center, knocking off the Binghamton Devils, also by a score of 5-2.  Steven Fogarty struck for the Wolf Pack’s first four-point game of the season to lead the way, with 2-2-4, and linemate Lias Andersson added 2-1-3.  Then, in a showdown with division-leading Providence on the road Sunday, the Wolf Pack got a goal from Patrick Newell 62 seconds into the game and never looked back, downing the Bruins 4-1.  Lettieri scored twice in that game, and Newell also added an assist, for his first multiple-point game as a pro.

Troy Ave “So True,” Fast Cash ft. Boosie Badazz “Drought” & More | Daily Visuals 10.17.19

Aside from popping up at Tekashi 6nitch9ine’s singing performance in federal court a few weeks back, Troy Ave’s been keeping a low profile for the most part but today the Brooklyn rapper comes out of the shadows for his latest video. In his visuals for “So True,” the artist known to himself as Nupac spends some quality time with a tatted up Becky with the blond hair who probably doesn’t understand the reference whenever Troy refers to himself as Nupac. We just playing, y’all. She really does look like she was born after Pac was killed though so who knows if she’s familiar with the Hip-Hop icon like that.

From the East to the South, Fast Cash links up with Boosie Badazz for a wild jailbreak in broad daylight and makes his way to the spot to turn up with his peoples in the club to “Drought.”

Check out the rest of today’s drops including work from ABG Neal, YRK Murk, and more.

Sam Poole Offers Songs For A New World as Graduation Project

The Windsor arts and theatre scene has heard the works of Sam Poole for a few years.  He’s lent his skills to several local theatre companies, including Kordazone, University Players and most recently, creating music for an original adult Christmas musical from Post Productions. So how does someone like this graduate from University? With a bang, of course. For his graduation project, which he’ll be graded on, Poole chose to recreate the Jason Robert Brown epic musical theatre piece Songs For A New World, which was originally released in an off-Broadway production in 1995. Poole’s version of Songs For A New World will be open for public performances on Friday and Saturday (Feb. 1 and 2, 2019) at 8pm at the University of Windsor’s School of Creative Arts Armouries Building (37 University Ave W.). He’s bringing along a four-piece band and four of the city’s brightest young singers to pull it off. 519 Magazine was invited to a rehearsal this week to check it out and audiences are in for a musical treat this weekend when the live performances and the educational grading begins. Songs For A New World is not an easy soundtrack to pull off. It musically bounces from theme to theme with some of the most vocally demanding parts out there. He’s put a lot of faith in his singers to help him graduate, but each one of them has incredible skill. Female singers Sara Fontaine and Kaitlyn Karns provide much of the feminine in the show – Fontaine was fabulous during Stars and the Moon and Kaitlyn Karns pours the emotion in I’m Not Afraid of Anything, a song that is quickly becoming a signature piece for her (she performed it at Cabaret For A Cause earlier this year. Michael Roy offered touching vocal performances in his romantic songs like She Cries and I’d Give It All For You, while Benjamin Doncom offered a bit more colour with his flashy characters in songs like The Steam Train and King Of The World. Doncom will also be performing with Tiffany Taylor and Nikki Knight at a Windsor Express pre-game concert as part of the 519 Premium Concert Series on Wednesday, Feb. 13. Even during a rehearsal, it was obvious that this piece takes a lot of skill and effort to pull off – and it’s certainly not the usual fair for a graduation session. Poole rocked the piano for the whole show, offering minimal vocals to open and close the show. His playing was smooth and commanding – all he needs it the flashing coat with tails and it’d feel like a grand show on a grander stage. The accompanying band was solid, with Alex Aideira-Leite on bass, Michael Karloff on synth, Nicholas Baddeley on drums and Vanessa Harnish on percussion. Songs For A New World is an unforgettable experience. The music is stunning and the vocals are mesmerizing – it’s certainly more than just a performance to get graded on, it’s a performance to set the tone for an incredible career ahead. Catch Songs For A New World while you can, this Friday and Saturday (Feb. 1 and 2, 2019) at 8pm at the University of Windsor’s School of Creative Arts Armouries Building (37 University Ave W.). Tickets are $15 and available at the door or at http://www.uwindsor.ca/music/533/songs-new-world.

#OnTheRoadAgain. We El Paso County Young Democrats - EPCYD returned to our adopted stretch of Fountain Mesa Road (between Fontaine Blvd. and Fortman Ave., at the north end of Fountain, Colorado), and we cleaned it! EPCYD Chair Ryan Macoubrie, Secretary Jason Arnold, and Board Members Kelsey Brown and John Jarrell were joined by special guest Tim Dolan to work hard on our road, keeping it clean! We filled 8 trash bags! We also survived the squirrel massacre, and played with some friendly goats and chickens! ("Here critter, critter, critter!") Although none of the many discarded scratch lottery tickets we found were winners, yet we did find $1 and a penny -- so we were winners there!

Raymond L. Brown, age 82, of Pascagoula and Gautier, Mississippi, passed away unexpectedly on a walk on the trails of his property with his beloved dog Bebe, work gloves on.

He was looking forward to being inducted into the inaugural class of the Sugar Bowl Hall of Fame in New Orleans next week on New Years Day 2018.

He was born in Clarksdale in 1936 and spent his early years in Greenville, Mississippi. He was preceded in death by his father, Russell L. Brown and his mother, Agnes Brown Mason, and by his wife of 58 years, Carolyn “Lyn” Shoemaker Brown. He is survived by his daughter, Allison Brown Buchanan (Patrick), of Biloxi, son, Raymond L. Brown, Jr. (Virginia Mary), of Houston, Texas, Beverly Brown Dees (Hale), of Ocean Springs, and eight grandchildren, Hawtin and Frances Buchanan; Raymond, III, Thompson, Patrick and Walker Brown; and Wesley and Sydney Fontaine. He leaves two brothers, Jerry Russell Brown and Donald Hays Brown of Greenville, and a sister, Sally Rebecca (Beki) Brown Morgan, Montgomery, Alabama.

Raymond graduated from Greenville High School, where he was a student leader and four-sport athlete, served as president of the student council, QB and captain of a state championship football team, was most valuable player in the former Big 8 conference, and was first-team high school All-American. He played in the high school All-American game in 1954.

He attended Ole Miss on a football scholarship, where he was a student leader and played both football and baseball. He was President of the Business School, was on three football bowl teams, and on a college world-series baseball team at Ole Miss. He was All-SEC in football, having led the SEC in passing in 1956 and in total offense in 1957. He was the Most Valuable Player in the 1958 Sugar Bowl. His 92-yard touchdown run still stands as the longest run in Sugar Bowl history. He then played in the Senior Bowl and in the College All-Star Game, which is no longer played. The College All-Stars defeated the NFL champion Detroit Lions in that game.

At Ole Miss, he was affiliated with Sigma Chi social fraternity, of which he was an officer, and was selected for Omicron Delta Kappa, a scholarship-leadership society.

Achieving a business degree (BBA) from Ole Miss, he then attended both Ole Miss and Maryland law schools, earning a law degree from Ole Miss. In law school, he was inducted into Phi Delta Phi honorary fraternity and earned the honor of writing for the law journal. While earning his law degree, he played three years of professional football with the Baltimore Colts, attending, alternately, the Ole Miss and Maryland law schools. He was a member of two NFL championship teams, playing as starting defensive back and punter in the famous sudden death1958 championship game against the NY Giants in Yankee Stadium in New York City, which is called the Greatest Game Ever Played. In addition to his defensive and punting roles, he was an alternate at quarterback for the great Johnny Unitas.

Finishing law school after professional football, he earned a law clerkship at the United States Supreme Court, where he clerked for Justice Tom Clark.

He was active and a leader in the community and in his profession. He was a member of First United Methodist Church in Pascagoula, where he served as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, among other positions. He served as Chairman of the Gulf Coast Community Foundation, of which he was a Board member for many years, President of Pascagoula Rotary and President of the Jaycees. In 1964 he was Young Man of the Year in Pascagoula. He was the attorney for the Pascagoula Municipal School District for thirty years and was a local board member of the Hancock Bank. After moving to Gautier, he served on the Gautier Historic Preservation Commission.

His professional leadership included President of the Mississippi Bar, Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, which he served as State Chair and as a Regent (national Board member), representing the Fellows of four states, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas for four years. He was recognized with Lifetime Achievement awards by both the Mississippi Bar and the Mississippi Defense Lawyers.

Mr. Brown served as President of the Ole Miss Alumni Association and President of the Ole Miss Law Alumni.

He believed strongly in the United States Constitution, and often spoke to civic clubs and other organizations to encourage knowledge of and support for our Constitution.

An instrument-rated pilot, he flew his own plane on business and to many Ole Miss football games.

His many honors include induction into several Halls of Fame. His student leadership at Ole Miss was recognized by his induction into the Ole Miss Student Hall of Fame; his service to Ole Miss, by his induction into the Ole Miss Alumni Hall of Fame; his professional career, by induction into the University of Mississippi Law Alumni Hall of Fame; and his athletic career, by his induction into the Ole Miss Athletic Hall of Fame, the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame, the Sugar Bowl Hall of Fame, and, in 2007, the 12-person Wall Street Journal Lawyer-football Hall of Fame, along with Justice Byron White, Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court and President Gerald Ford.

In lieu of flowers, the family wishes consideration of memorials to the University of Mississippi Raymond L. Brown Scholarship in Law, c/o University of Mississippi Foundation, 406 University Ave., Oxford, MS 38655 or First United Methodist Church, PO Box 371, Pascagoula, MS 39568

A new big city - strange, clever and yummy!

I was a little nervous to book a flight on Air Asia across the China Sea (ya know, that whole losing planes thing), but a number of friends told me I was being silly and so for $100 I took a 7-hour flight from KL to Tokyo. Intensifying my fear was the fact that it was empty - with fewer than 10 passengers in the "special" section (I think I paid $2 for a window seat) which had about 90 seats. Needless to say, the empty flight was lovely - even more so because I was smart enough to pre-order 2 meals for the long flight! The airport was super efficient (surprise surprise) and reminded me that the US is so disgustingly behind. I appreciate that Tokyo and Sing and HK may be on a different level, but even KL and Bali were better than most US airports!! We arrived around 11 and after customs and my bags I caught the last train towards the center of town. For new solo travelers, I always ask an attendant but honestly it's tough to go wrong if you swim in the direction of the other salmon with airport trains. There was a super sweet Japanese woman who thought I was with 2 other backpackers and thought we were all mountain climbers. We explained backpacks are just easy and she covered her mouth to laugh at this. *cute* On the train I looked at a subway map for the first time - wow, tokyo is confusing! And in Japanese! The nice woman helped me though, both with where we were and my transfer. Alas, I messed it up though and stepped off the last train of the night a bit too early. When I got to the exit and realized I had only put $3 (330 yen) on my ticket I snuck out, playing the dumb tourist card. Oops! My $30 taxi ride for just a few miles though was karma getting back at me… After 2 bad hotel experiences on this trip I was afraid to get to the Villa Fontaine but it is actually super nice! In my room they thought of everything from pjs, to English fan directions, to hangers on the wall, 2 types of slippers and tons of bath products. It was simple (only $100 a night) but super clean - perfection. This morning I woke up for breakfast and then did a bit of planning - there is a LOT to do here!! Around noon I headed out and found a BIC Camera store to buy a SIM card - I almost forgot what it's like to have data. It's brilliant, but also very necessary in a not-so-English friendly city. I walked around Ginza (where I'm staying) for most of the afternoon with a few important food stops. The first was for the best ramen I've ever had at Ginza Kagari. The original stand was a few blocks away but I opted for the train station version with a shorter (but still 30 min) wait for traditional Japanese bar seating; only 10 places! Instead of a basic clear broth it was almost creamy chicken soupy - it was incredible and I ate every last bite, ignoring the "Japanese women only eat until they're 90% full" rule. Then I went shopping!! Ginza is the Park Ave of Tokyo and while I resisted the common luxury US stores I did spend an hour in Itoya which is a Japanese institution. It's a stationary store, naturally, but with 6 levels of stationary, stickers, pens, notebooks and little gadgets! I spent more than I care to admit on black cat stickers. Then I headed to the famed Shibuya Crossing where hundreds to thousands cross a circular intersection, said to be the most in the world. Maybe it's a sign that I've seen too much of the world or gotten too accustomed to cities - while very cool, it was a bit underwhelming to me. Still, I got a green matcha tea and enjoyed the view as Starbucks had intended, for their perfect 2nd floor spot. For dinner, I tried Shabu shabu which is a type of meal where they prepare boiling broth, you cook thin slices of meat and/or vegetables and then you dip the cooked food into either a soy sauce vinegar or a sesame (nutty) brown sauce. I've heard about it in the states but never tried it - but my friend Andy recommended this place so I made a reservation and attempted to show up on time. Actually, I arrived to the train station / shopping mall / food court complex at 7 but it took me another 30 minutes to find to find the restaurant. What I've learned today is that landmarks are not only useful, but essential for restaurants. No one had heard of Imahan shabu shabu, but everyone knew ramen street, so I asked and wandered, asked and wandered. I thought, eventually I will stumble on the place and recognize the same Japanese characters! (Just kidding - I was pretty sure I would never find it in the sea of characters and basement of at least 60 eateries.) The food gods have been smiling on me today though and I found it! I sat down and they rummaged up an English (ish) menu for me. I ordered a portion of meat and vegetables and Sapporo. I must say the benefit to being blonde and by myself is that I'm so clearly out of place that everyone takes pity on me and is super helpful. They brought the hot plate, pot of broth, plate of beef, plate of veggies, sauces and a pot of water (to clean the broth - or at least that's what I did with it). They also brought a bib and directions in English. Fantastic. One of the waitresses looked at me expectantly and I asked if she could demonstrate - which was great until she started piling food into my sauce bowl! (I asked for a plate but that's not what is done.) I never thought I was a slow eater but in Asia I eat at a grandmotherly pace. (Ghays, I think this is a virtue!!) I told them I could handle myself (at my own pace) and they trusted me with the hot plate for the rest of my meal. Yum, yum, yum - it was delicious. At the end of my meal, I went to the front to pay and the waiter followed me out of the restaurant -- I thought I had forgotten my credit card, but he just wanted to give me the final bow!! Touché Tokyo.
