I'm fine. But what does it mean? A phrase said for years but usually meaning a lie. A settlement for how something could be? Or a false testimony for the way that I'm feeling? Raindrops of Reality is a personal collection of poems, with the will to translate various emotions through a rather free form of writing. All my life, I thought poetry was too complex, but it wasn't true. Relatable, passionate, and free are the guiding words of my poems.

The Philosophers' Club has only one guideline: Quote and be quoted. In order to spread their ideas about life to as many unsuspecting "followers" as possible by high school graduation, these teens can't just dispense adages - they have to take risks. It's the ultimate social experiment, infused with the spirit of competition. For the past three years, the game has been kept a secret by four teenage boys who call each other by the names of famous Greek philosophers: Socrates, Plato, Diogenes, and Aristotle.

Needless to say, the fight for Victory is about to get a lot tougher.
