Thunder and lightening, it’s so humid, and so perfect. The perfect summers day. Pride day. We’ve been dancing around our attic studio all day to the new Cure song, The Only One. Honestly, we want to cry, our Mr. Smith has written once again the perfect summer song. Our father has come up more than once wondering [...]

In the winter my parents fill the house with flowers, in the summer our lawn is awash in colour as we tore our wasteful lawn up and made it in to a garden. We rarely buy flowers as there is so much colour outside and with the windows open, the scent spilling in on hot [...]

Standing beside me on the subway this morning was a man furiously thumbing his Blackberry. After a few stops he turned it off, carefully put it away and passed out.
