Bumblebees droned amongst the white flowers that carpeted the small clearing, buzzing around Declan’s bare feet. The autumn sun felt good after the long walk through the forest, and Declan tilted his face towards the sky, eyes closed. The bright light of the sun made his eyelids glow red.

“We’re here Dec. Listen close, you hear?”

Declan opened his eyes. A fussy-looking Oliver stood before him, one pale hand on his hip.
“Right, I’m listening.”

Oliver surveyed Declan briefly, as if sizing him up.

“OK. Well, like I said before, only the bravest, strongest boys can be in the Fairdale Boys.”
Declan nodded, his hazel eyes solemn. He knew how important this was.

“Give me your key.”

“Huh?” Declan asked, confused. Oliver didn’t answer, just stuck out his hand expectantly. Declan lifted the thin leather strap from around his neck, on which dangled a small brass skeleton key. No sooner had he handed it to Oliver that Oliver tossed the key into the wide stream gurgling sluggishly along behind him.

“Hey!” Declan cried, indignant. “That’s my only key!”

“Well, you’d better jump in after it then!”

”But it’ll be freezing in there! I’ll catch cold!”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I thought you wanted to hang out with the Fairdale Boys….”

“I do!” Interrupted Declan.

“Well then stop being such a sissy!”

Declan opened his mouth to argue again, but thought better of it. Oliver was in one of his moods, and it wouldn’t do to upset him. Not today. Not when Declan was trying out for a place in the Fairdale Boys, the local boys gang run by Oliver. Declan had no friends in his new home save his mother, and mother’s didn’t really count. This was his one chance at being accepted by his new peers, and it didn’t look like his cousin was going to make it easy for him.

Declan stepped up to the side of the wide, deep brook and surveyed the icy water. It was a warm day, but winter’s chill had already begun to creep into the brooks and streams that bubbled through the woods.

“Do I need to come up with a time limit or what?”

“No, sorry!” Declan said quickly, glancing at Oliver, who now stood with both hands on his hips.

“Move then!”

Declan peeled off his shirt and kicked off his shoes and socks. He shuffled to the bit of embankment closest to the place in the brook where his key lay, glimmering in the muddy creek-bed. Trying not to think about how cold he would be in a few seconds, Declan drew as deep a breath and jumped in.

He needn’t have taken such a long breath, for the water only came up to his armpits. The air left his lungs in a lusty scream of surprise-never had he felt anything this cold. It felt not only like he had been encased in ice, but that within the ice were needles jabbing at him all over with bright, cold spikes of pain.

i have verryyy small boobs like a A32. im 14 and my boobs havent grown for a year so i dont have too much hope considering my moms only a 34A. i used to hate it when id see my friends all around me with Bs and some Cs and always being able to pushup their boobs in pics for fun and then id be just standing there like…ummmm yeahhh. guys would always pay more attention to them and everything and sometimes id be so upset that id cry cuz i cant do anything to make my boobs bigger. but now i realize its not so bad, i mean, us small chested girls can be models unlike those girls with Cs and Ds, we can wear cute tight tanks without r boobs looking huge and popping out and gross. we can wear babydoll dresses and wont look fat because the fabric flows close to r bodies. so dont listen to all the yahooanswers q’s about ooo my boobs r too big and omgg my boobs r like DDs. it really puts us down! i have to admit that i still wish i had a little bigger boobs when it comes to wearing bikinis and stuff, but ive learned to accept it when my aunt had to get a masectomy and had to get her breasts removed because of cancer. so will anyone who feels the same way and also has small boobs please answer to this.

some tips for us small chested girls :
1. victorias secret very sexy ultimate pushup/lift = miracle
2. tighten bra straps as much as possible so u dont feel like the bras too big and so it stays tight to ur boobs
3. do not stuff. its totally obvious
4. think kate moss, nicole kidman, kiera nightly….they all have small boobs!
5. belt flowy shirts right under the bust line. makes ur boobs like bigger and round :)
6. ask the victorias secret lady to get u a bunch of bras good for ur size. either ask for ones that will fit great or make ur boobs more pushed up or bigger. shell bring u a tray of all the ones she thinks r good and hav u try them on.

RESPOND ABOUT UR THOUGHTS ABOUT SMALL BOOBS!

I was snowboarding a few weeks ago and I got off the lift and the toe strap on my front binding (im a goofy rider) was no longer attached to it. I took the strap with me down the mountain, but I found it significantly harder to control my board without it. I showed it to my parents, and told them I didn’t have the bolt. (followed by the “I told you to look at it before we got here!” speech) So i was wondering if I can just go out and buy another bolt, or if there are special “snowboard binding screws”? thanks!!
p.s, I’m pretty sure the brand is Spice

I did some research a bit on Plate Carriers and since I used to be military for 4 years we used the IOTV by PointBlank whichwas so comfortable because of the cumberbund(you lift up the vest and straps in on the sides then put the front down) I am i n the market for Plate carrier similiar to that one. While i am a civilian now i have my reasons. beow are my choices.

1-Paraclete SOHPC $405
2- Paraclete Releasable Modular Vest $630

I like the full body protection as well as sapi plates on the side, Which should i get ? please if you have experiance with Paraclete please let me know
I did 4 yrs in the Infantry while i was in the army. And i never used DAPS or Deltoid armor cuz its too bulky and slows you down dramatically. I can hand weight very well After all i was a M249 gunner and im ony 5’6″ weighing 150 lbs so i can deal ith weight no problem.So im looking for 4 plats (1 front 1 back 1 small sapi plates on each side)

I normally buy my bras from Aerie (American Eagle) but they dont really lift much even when the straps are tight as they’ll go..
I’m almost 16 and I wear a 34C. I have a lot of problems though, sometimes I almost fall out of it, so I went up to a 34D but that was way too big for me and looked bad. What would you suggest?
Also, I feel like my bras dont give me enough lift. I don’t have a mom to talk to about these things so I’m kinda alone here. I feel really awkward asking this, but where should your breasts be when your wearing a bra that fits right?
Also, where are some good places to buy cute bras that aren’t too expensive without much padding?

Do they work okay? Are they “old lady” bras?? I cant wear those tiny ones with a thin strap, I need more lift (36D) Any reccomendations for one of their bras????

I was just donating blood at the red cross a few hours ago. This time when the nurse stuck my arm it hurt FAR worse than it ever has before when I’ve donated. The blood ended up clotting and my arm turned bright purple from the strap. Then she had to take the needle out and blood squirted slightly. Now I can hardly lift my arm. It is still some what bleeding. Is my arm messed up? Or is this sometimes normal when giving blood?
