As soon as he swallows theres more food to replace it. Its quite the site to see. Though its not as if August cares or even notices what he's doing. He's hungry, and nothings going to distract him from eating.
After a while he stops walking, just to focus on his eating. He stuffs about three Kebler Fudge Stripe cookies into his mouth. The next sight is almost revaulting, as August seems to inhale the cookies whole. It was amazing how much he could eat. His stomach is like a bottomless pit. He stands there unaware of anyone else, still inhaling his food.
Then it all changes as a song comes on to his ipod. August then starts to dance, still holdning his food. Not just any dance either, he's doing the Cat Daddy. It was quite the sight. If anyone were to walk in right now, they would be in for a treat. It was pretty entertaining to watch August dance. You see, August was a fairly good dancer.
Biography*: August grew up in a small apartment in New York City, New York. To be exact the apartment was located in Manhattan. In reality, the apartment was pretty nice, but August hated it. From the moment he was old enough to understand what it mean't to hate something he hated it. A few weeks after August's birthday, Julianne was already up and playing her little game. What game is this? Picking up different men, she liked to go out to bars and find random men and bring them home. Most of them didn't last too long, but some became regualrs. As soon as he understood what was going on, Sam hated it.
Julianne never really wanted a son, and she let August know that. At home he was constantly beat over and over again. Sometimes he didn't even do anything, and he'd still be beaten. It got to the point where, he missed several days of school because of the pain. However he doesn't tell anyone about this because even though she's kind of crazy, he loves his mom. So even though she's horrible to him, he would never tell anyone. This is also the leading factor as to why August is a pacifist.
School is the one place, where August can be accepted. In fact he seemed to be accepted by a lot of people. See, August was lucky enough to be in the popular group of kids at shcool. He enjoyed having all of these friends, but sometimes he just longed to get away from all of it. He never really took any action to get away from this though.
There was a point in August's life where it was just to hard for him to handle and he became really stressed. School was harder, and Julianne seemed to beat him more than ever. So August turned to drinking, and oh boy did he like it. He would just drink until all of his problems went away. He also started to serial date girls, breaking up with them when they got boring. A couple of times he almost went farther, but he manged to stop himself. However he told everyone that he went farther.
Then his life seemed to change. All of the sudden Julianne seemed to care about her son. Maybe it was the fact that she didn't want him to become like her. So after some thinking she told August about camp. She then had him pack a bag. Julianne then forced August into her car, where she took him to camp and left him. After a while of standing there confused, August stumbled up the hill and into camp. Where he feel down the hill, and passed out. When he woke up he was surrounded by an old guy and some random girl.
