Welcome to Tales From Elsewhere!
Do you ever wonder why are people interested in stuff? I personally believe it's a combination of three aspects. Firstly, as humans, we're a naturally curious species. We are hungry for knowledge and certainty of what we see.

NorthBound
As my first story on this site, I wanted to remember the old band that I used to be a part of that I remember fondly. We began as just three friends in High School. Well two of us knew each other well before High School. But it began with the want to just play music. The three friends got together and just played music. Granted two were very well trained musicians and the other taught himself after college as something to do. You'd think that it wouldn't sound that great, your classic garage band but I'll tell you, we were the real deal. The three of us began playing and it sounded magical. Now one of us began as a drummer. He was very prolific as a drummer. He actually did a whole drum battle on stage with another kid. The other two were just your regular bumpkins who either taught themselves the guitar or had their father taught them guitar. But when we got together just to jam and play cover songs, something sounded quite good. We were truly something to behold. We had many different band names included CNL or even Saco River but we finally decided on NorthBound and we made our debut in a Beverly house gig. We then played at the Scala Center in Georgetown and it was the height of our career. Not only was it our best gig but unfortunately it was our last gig. Here is the youtube videos of the concert and I truly believe had we kept going we would have done great things. We even started writing original songs and they were damn good but things happen. Life gets in the way but at least we have our memories. LONG LIVE NORTHBOUND!

Take your love back, it makes me cry.
My first love made me feel like shit in all different ways that I’d never imagined even possible. Not only did he attack my work ethic, he also attacked my sanity, my mental vulnerabilities, my appearance, my personality, my health, my honesty, my relationship with myself, my family, my friendships. Everything I can imagine that I have built and spent years maintaining or even strengthening, he not only judged me for, but he re-wrote. For some stupid reason-no-because I loved him and I trusted him, I let him. Then I forgot myself, I said I’d stay, I cried, and I went back. I hate myself for it. However, the thing that I truly hate, is him. I see now with open eyes just how fucked up he is. The way he treated me, I would never wish onto another human being. He was cruel and he was aware of it. Every single thing he did was completely for himself and I have no idea how there couldn’t have been an ounce of empathy left over, tucked away somewhere in his mind. He let me pick up all his anger; insecurities, social and moral difficulties and fix them for him. And then he had the audacity to take that love and willingness, and empowering and use it to make me feel even worse about myself. He knew that he was getting away with it, taking advantage of my kindness, my emotions, my forgiveness. He knew that I was too good to be with him but instead of learning and trying to do better, he just tried to make me worse.
