Selfcontrol Stories

Two broken pasts. One university. And a collision neither of them planned. Amelia Hayes was supposed to be a dancer. Instead, she's starting over-haunted by guilt, grief, and a future she no longer recognizes. Leaving home is her escape, but also her punishment. Ballet shoes packed away. Dreams rewritten. Control is the only thing keeping her upright. Luca Brookes thrives on control. Hockey captain. Observer. Detached. He doesn't do chaos, emotions, or attachments-especially not at NBU, where parties blur into noise and people disappoint on repeat. He watches, notices, and keeps his distance. Always. They exist in different worlds. Until a single name, a shared connection, and a series of unavoidable moments pull them into each other's orbit. What starts as indifference turns into tension. Tension into curiosity. And curiosity into something neither of them is ready to face. Sometimes the hardest thing isn't starting over- it's letting someone in while you do.

Mira never asked to become the emotional center of a pack rebuilding itself-but her quiet strength makes her impossible to ignore. Lucas, steady and warm beneath his sarcasm, finds himself drawn to her in ways he can't explain and doesn't want to resist. Together, they become Hyatt's heartbeat: soft where the world was cruel, steady where the past was chaotic, and brave enough to choose each other in the aftermath of war. Their bond doesn't explode. It settles. And in that settling, Hyatt finds something it hasn't felt in years-peace.

each chapter is a different story, some may correlate depends on whether you want them to.

This is not a motivational fairy tale. There are no shortcuts here. No lies. No empty positivity. 22 or Nothing is a raw, honest project about pressure, discipline, ambition, and the cost of wanting more than average. It's about building a life under a deadline - about using science, physics, psychology, and structure instead of hope. This story explores: how pressure can sharpen the mind instead of breaking it why discipline outperforms motivation how perfectionism can be a weapon when controlled what loneliness teaches when comfort is removed why time is the most unforgiving variable in life There is no guarantee of success here. Only responsibility. This is written for those who feel the clock ticking. For those who refuse to drift. For those who would rather fail honestly than live comfortably without purpose. 22 is not an age. It's a line you either cross - or you don't.

"Voices" is a deeply introspective and emotional narrative that explores the internal struggle with thoughts and the voices within the mind. The text vividly describes how these voices influence the protagonist's daily life, creating an inner world that is chaotic, overwhelming, and inescapable at times. Through poetic and figurative language, the author portrays the mind as a labyrinth filled with different voices-some musical and pleasant, while others are dark and burdensome. The constant struggle to find peace amidst this inner noise is ever-present, but in the end, the protagonist reaches a moment of self-awareness: they are more than just the voices in their head; they have the power to manage them. The piece touches on themes such as the battle with inner thoughts, anxiety, the longing for peace, and self-control. While it carries a melancholic tone, it ultimately delivers a message of hope and empowerment, reminding the reader that amidst the noise, there is always a way to find harmony.

Social change is all about making a difference in the lives of those around us. And it is not just those who we meet or come across by achieving little acts of kindness such as opening a door for someone, paying for someone's meal, lending a hand with an event; but also those who are less fortunate than use. Those who live in Haiti, Kenya, Indonesia, Ethiopia and many others in which are affected by child labour as well as lacking clean water, food, access to health care, an education, school supplies, clothes, shoes, roof over their heads, and much more. It's not only important to donate to charities with money, items and your time as well as volunteering and other forms of raising awareness and creating long-lasting change and peace in the world but also being grateful for what we have and not taking anything for granted. And if we have too much something like canned goods, or clothes that haven't been worn in months, it's time to donate them to the less fortunate.

My thoughts on self control.

Fuck people trying to hold you down and control your future and life and happiness. Fuck letting people tear you apart and break you down. Fuck being a prisoner to anyone. You do you and be strong and happy and acommplish the shut you want to. They will see it.

My chest aches, my feet have gone numb, and the bastard is still chasing me! I veer to the right trying to lose him. My feet pound the concrete and my heart thuds in my chest. He laughs, and it speeds up, I'm in trouble. My energy is low and I've been out here for way too long. I feel him closing in, and my adrenaline rush finally kicks in. Will I choose flight or fight?
