Reviewed Surfacing - Sarah McLachlan

Coming up for air

I took a deep breath as the last song, a lyric-free composition was plunked out on the piano. I understand she plays the piano and it's not too shabby. Her lilting voice is enough alone, one of those people who needs not music to enhance vocal talent. It is in my opinion that a singer with a uni...Read more

''Oh, you're homeschooled?''

I get that response alot, accompanied by the person drawing back as if I'm some contagious disease. Yes, I've been homeschooled all my life, except for preschool and my freshman year. I would not trade it for anything, because it is a precious experience. I have had the advantage of being homesc...Read more

It opened up my eyes!

Ace of Base is an old group that many of you may not know, they were popular in the early ninety's with songs such as ''The Sign'' and ''Don't Turn Around''.

Simply Superior

Now I believe that the quality of a soft drink lies mainly in your personal taste. Some may like that syrupy liquid that passes for a soft drink. Some may like the tons of sugar that keeps them up until four in the morning playing solitaire. That's okay, it's their taste. Me, I'd go for a Die...Read more

The are ''The Bomb'' (Literally)

The five best action movies...Wow. Now action is not my genre of choice, so when I enjoy one, it has to be unique, it really has to be a good one. I'm not one to enjoy a shoot 'em up free for all, no it has to have plot, dialogue, good acting and all other things beyond simple special effects. T...Read more

Why join?

This advice refers to libraries. Why join a library? Isn't it a bunch of hassle? Aren't there a lot of fees to pay? Is it a pain in the neck to return books on time? Who in their right mind would want to add more chaos to their life? Count me in! I have been going to libraries ever since I ca...Read more

Is it just for the money?

I have watched baseball since I was little. I memorized the rules, cheered for my team when they went to the world series, and could actually sit through nine innings of a little ball being thrown and hit around a field. I now play softball and it is my absolute favorite sport. I love sitting do...Read more

Quitting Alcohol

Your fight to give up alcohol and triumph is very inspiring to me. I have never drank many factors prevent me from doing it. Your story is one of those factors. Thank you for allowing others to learn from something that might be painful to you. Don't stop writing!
