Reflection
I really enjoyed this project, as opposed to a essay or a writing assignment, because it got us thinking. Also, it was a lot more interesting than just writing on a word document, because it was a lot more interactive, and it encouraged creatiivity.

Im Okay
I wake up and cry
I look at our bed and I see no one
The fault was all mine
I feel nothing inside, and its over and done
You left at the worst time
Im piecing back together my heart
I cant see why I
Was so blind to your love, and I tore us apart.
Life love everything we know is going to hell, and I don’t care
You me everything that makes us what we are… has just gone down the drain…
I don’t care what you think that ive become.. yea im alright
I cant see what happening to myself, but im okay
Yea im okay
Im okay
Im okay
You look at my eyes
Trying to figure out why I did what I did
I try to feign surprise
I still have no idea how you found what I hid
This is all so wrong
Nothing is turning out like how we planned
You and I belong
I just cant figure it out, and I don’t understand
Life love everything we know is going to hell, and I don’t care
You me everything that makes us what we are… has just gone down the drain…
I don’t care what you think that ive become.. yea im alright
I cant see what happening to myself, but im okay
Im okay
Yea im okay
I walk home alone
I keep on thinking that you’re here with me
Baby just come back home
Everything will be alright, yea then youll see
I made a mistake
And everyday I remember your face
What more then will you take
Oh baby no one can take your place
Life love everything we know is going to hell, and I don’t care
You me everything that makes us what we are… Has just gone down the drain
I don’t care what you think that ive become.. yea im alright
I cant see what happening to myself, but im okay
Life love everything we know is going to hell, and I don’t care
You me everything that makes us what we are… Has just gone down the drain
I don’t care what you think that ive become.. yea im alright
I cant see what happening to myself, but im okay
Yea im okay
Im okay
Im okay
Cause im okay
The Man , The Wife, The Tragedy
Chris enjoyed the flight home from his "business trip". About once a month he took these trips, always to California. His wife, Sarah, didn’t have to know what really went on during these frequent flights. After all, he still loved her, dearly, and if she knew what he was doing, she could never forgive him. No, it was best to keeps these visits secret. For everyone's sake.
Her name was Josephine. She had met Chris during one of his business trips to California. They hit it right off. She knew Chris had a wife, but they were so madly in love, neither cared about the consequences. Soon, Chris couldn’t wait for his all to infrequent business trips to meet with her. He began faking them, more and more frequently. Chris and Josephine enjoyed every minute of their time together, yet, Josephine couldn’t help but feeling Chris longed for his wife at the same time.
Sarah got up from the chair, hearing the phone ring in the dining room. "I got it", she yelled, before realizing that no one else was there. God, she hated these business trips Chris always went on. She picked up the phone, it was Jenny, her best friend. Jenny was currently trying to make it big in Hollywood. She listened speechless and shocked, to what Jenny was describing to her. As Sarah's mouth flew open, so did her hand, and the phone dropped to the floor and smashed in half.
As Chris pulled into the driveway, he knew instinctively that something was wrong. He opened the door. "Jenny?" he yelled. No answer. He tried once more, and only silence greeted him. He made his way into the kitchen, and found something, left for him. It was a note, with the words "I know" written on it. Chris collapsed to the floor, cradling his head in his hands. He had known it would end like this. The next morning, Chris woke up, and forgetting what had happened the day before, went to give Sarah a good morning hug. But his hands were groping at air, there was no one there. The doorbell rang. Chris hurried out of bed, and got dressed. He rushed to the front door, flew it open and… there was no one there. He shook himself, thinking that he must be imagining things, and turned around. There she was. Sarah, the love of his life, standing right before him, like how it had been before all this. She looked at him, hoping against all hopes that he had a reason, a valid justification for his lies. She confronted him, asking him about it. "Why" she asked "Why?!". Chris tried to lie, tried to act like he didn’t know what was going on. "I have no idea what your talking about", he answered. He could see that him lying to her face hurt Sarah almost as much as finding out. Head in hands, she stormed out the open front door. Chris never saw her again.
Five Years Later
Chris staggered home from the bar. Every night, he went there to forget. Once he was completely wasted, there was no pain. He never tried to contact Sarah, he knew it was pointless. And he never answered Josephine's calls either. That would just make him remember. "Why" he yelled to the empty street, "Why?!". There was no answer. But Chris wouldn't admit to himself that he had caused it, or what his life had turned out to be. "Im okay" He yelled once again."Im okay".
