    Who
    My name's Anita Wirawan and I love stories :).

    I read/watch a lot of stories and like to share the most interesting and unusual ones here to see what everyone else thinks about them.

    Why
    I had originally started this blog as a way to get things together after my brother Jody died back in 2008, but it's turned into a lot more than that.

    I hope you'll find the stories that you need here.

    What Next
    Feel free to look around the blog and add your own thoughts or stories, I'd love to hear 'em.

  • “But ideas lie everywhere, like apples fallen and melting in the grass for lack of wayfaring strangers with an eye and a tongue for beauty, whether absurd, horrific, or genteel.”

Anybody remember Trapper Keepers?

Anybody remember Trapper Keepers…the old kind that were all plastic and sometimes had edges sharp enough to slice your hand? The first ones were just plain colors but as time went on you could magically choose the design that expressed your unique personality perfectly…

And by that I mean you picked one of the four designs that happened to be available in the school supplies aisle you were in, which was usually something like: generic neon sports action shot with the word ‘RAD’underneath it, red Corvette driving in outer space, soothing stock photo of a hot air balloon, or Lisa Frank shiny dolphin wonderland.

I’m pretty sure I had a couple of plain ones, a Corvette, and some sort of spray painted landscape one…it’s hard to remember since that kind of thing tends to get lost in a fog of snap bracelets and unsolved Rubix Cubes ;).
