Fall is upon us, and the giants will return soon. The new blood will see how things change. We still have yet to understand the purpose or motivation of these dull creatures. Regardless of their lack of intellect, they always procure some form of sustenance. Somehow, they have so much food, they place them in some sort of container, yet they never use them again. Our recognisance teams have been able to recover food from the containers, though we are still unable to recognise what the containers do for the giants, the food itself is unlike most other pieces of sustenance we've seen. The food knows no limit, even in winter.

My colleagues have come to recognise the giants as a blessing, for they ward away the Hellions. I had another one of the nightmares about the beasts. Their glowing eyes peered out from the darkness - fur slick with blood - and their claws... I struggle to move my paw in recollection of the monster. The giants may be dumb, but the Hellions fear them, so they must be formidable. The giants are spared the fear that comes from the spine shuttering meowing sound they make - truly a symphony for demons.

I fear my language in these last few entries lack coherence. I have not slept for two days. We have been waiting for our allies from the depths of the underground so that we may exchange resources. There are no trees in the underground, so they lack Heaven Fruit. However, in exchange, they scavenge other resources that we require. In exchange for God fruit, the Rattington tribe will give us the last piece for our God eye security system. Our engineers can use the cameras our scouting teams have set up for surveyors to keep track of the winged demons, hellions, and canines.

My heart dances to see my cousin - Craig Penderson - from The Great Underground. I envy him in his research for Rodent immortality. The Rat Race truly is formidable, but their necessities are too many. I pray to Ratatoskr he will find the answers.

I must rest now. Sleep looms over my witts, but I fear only nightmares of the Hellions await me.

May Ratatoskr help us all.

Sir Adrian Nuttington VII - Second Lieutenant of the Four Squirrel Battalion.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
