Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction. So using our website in your free time discover fiction for yourself. Tadeus Days by Miyamoto Donovan (10 best books of all time .txt) 📖

22 years of existence, he was an adventurer but at the same time someone insecure about his own self and talents but he was always happy to face new challenges. An adventure for Dominic was going to college; it was an adventure as he could have a more positive look about what it was to be a Cartagenero.
Dominic was a student at La Universidad de Bogota Jorge Tadeo Lozano, Cartagena branch; he was studying Communications and he liked his career; although sometimes he was extremely cynical to the future that journalists had in Colombia “if you aren’t killed you’re just be jobless” he said that every time he could, because sometimes he thought he made a mistake choosing that career and it was better that if instead of journalism he went to the Hypocritical path. Nobody thought of Dominic as an adventurer because he was a really a chubby guy, who looked scared most of the time (or bored) and he was really quiet toward many issues, but he loved going on the assignments that had an investigative value..
La Tadeo, as it was known in the city was one of the few educational centers that was located in the county side of the city, it was really beautiful and it was a different experience studying outside from the chaos of the city, but studying there it was like living in a microcosms because it was away from everything and almost away from every symbol of civilization. There were power groups inside the campus, there were the Goths, the Nerds, the Jocks, the acting troupe, the fashionistas, the gay and lesb community, The friends of God, the trendy’s, the stoners, the outcasts and the common folk too, it was like a small city inside the city but there were different rules.
One example of those rules it was that every group had his territories, the Goths owned the third floor, the trendy’s and fashionistas owned the cafeteria and the main hall of the building, the stoners owned the west section of the first floor and students of Graphic Design owned the east side of the first floor... well, those are only a few rules of the complex social environment of La Tadeo.
Almost everyone knew each other because the student body was really small and almost everyone had at the same time their classes, but when the rainy season came the university was almost empty as many people didn’t liked to travel in the buses when it was raining. For Dominic La Tadeo was his refuge from the chaos of the city, it was a small paradise but sometimes he was bored because there wasn’t too much to do at campus, not even going to the computer rooms because it was prohibited.
Dominic had a good relation with almost everybody, but his best friend was Emma De La Espriella, another student of Communications and someone who shared his passion for journalism. They were buddies and both were members of the Young Journalist Association. Emma was about the same height as Dominic, probably a little bit higher, she had brown curly hairy and she was always laughing hard when she was in a good mood.
Both of them where friends although Dominic was more of a the Goths, or as they were called the Cave Bang because they usually sat in the middle of a big, dark hallway located in the third floor near the radio cabin.
Every April the worst of the rain season came to the city, it was impossible to move from one place to another because of the poor sewer system were the floods, not even with a car you could go to the corner of your street because it was terrible, and in later years the problem went worse with the high tides.
For Dominic it was a depressing season, every time he saw the first rains of the month, he thought “with the rains of April I hope all the problems are going to be washed” but it was because different negatives experiences happened in April for him, even if in April was his birthday, but he hated to the month because nothing good in his opinion happened in April.
His good friend Laidy Mendoza, a small chunky girl who was also in the punk movement and she was friends with the Cave gang always tried to cheer him up but she never did it with any success. For Laidy, La Tadeo was a place where she could be herself and even if she was depressed, she was happy to be there. She met Dominic at one class the guys from Publicity and Communications had in common, and they were instant friends with their very first meeting.
But those were old times; near 2007 everything wasn’t picture perfect. Laidy wasn’t anymore a member of the gang, they backstabbed her when one of the girls spoke that Laidy was slut and that was the beginning of the end of her in the group; it was something she took her by surprise and affected her for a very long time because she considered many of the gang her closest friends. At the end Laidy ended in Bogota as many other people after graduation, she ended with a path in her life and she was trying to find her place in this big vast world.... but for her finding her place wasn’t easy, also
Emma was luckier, because she ended her career in Bogota and because of her stamina and determination she did survived the college years, but at the end no one was really prepare for adulthood, it took many as a punch in the guts, it was something sour to taste unemployment for the very first time, really nobody was prepared for adulthood, but at the end nobody is really prepared for that step in life.
Graduation was something to remember but at the same time was bittersweet because the memory of Rolando was present between the many people at the conference room in the Convention Center. But at the end he wasn’t mentioned, that day was for the students and it was a day to be happy, except everyone knew what it comes later, the real world was something worse than college itself, nobody was prepared but everyone was happy to end that phase.
At the end Dominic returned to Cartagena after living for sometime in the United States, he returned because it wasn’t the best time to go to the United States due the recession; he knew he could go back anytime he wanted, as he was a citizen; but he knew he was going to have ties with the city he once called home, except for him, his return wasn’t a mere ending but just a new beginning.
