I hate the word poser, and anyone who thinks they have the right to use it. I've grown to loath it. It makes remember who I was back when I considered myself a skateboarder. I would look at peoples shoes walking through the hallways at school thinking they were a poser because they wore skateboarding shoes and didn't skateboard. Ah man, I was a ( Read more... )

The conference room at VTYB was unusually calm for a Friday night. Last week's youth-speaker Jeremy Blicks had stolen the air all across New York. It was a hot news topic with popular morning shows and local news companies. The balls-out move was unexpected, and sent ripples throughout the community. Frank loosened the collar on his faded black ( Read more... )

Since the last post I have 1) graduated highschool, 2) Thrown away the only awards I've ever received in my life, 3) Cursed in front of my dad for the first time, and 4) gone to Isles of Adventure. Graduating was a waste of breath; the awards were stupid, and my dad fished the plack out of the trash; I told my dad to get the hell out of my room, ( Read more... )

So I wrote these two poems (see below) and then I decided that when I would read them, I would put my life into it. In one of my favorite rap songs, Most Def tells me "The more emotion I put into it, the harder I rock."

I left fruit snack packets scattered around to make sure she wouldn't forget about me as I left. It makes me smile, thinking of that crumpled up face, staring so hard trying to get a glimpse of my brain. I could see her thoughts, and the neverending questions of who I am and why I am roll across her brain. I've been told the verb "to be" means ( Read more... )

I started The Poet May 19th at 12:00 am. I read until 3:00 in the morning and fell asleep. 3 hours. I got home tonight at 10:30ish, started reading around 12:30. It is now 2:00 in the morning and I just got out of the shower. I think I finished the book a little before 1:30. 1 hour. 4 hours, give or take a few minutes, and I finished a 612 page ( Read more... )

I opened up a Perpperidge Farm package of cookies today, and there was a neat little card with their logo and a great saying. "If you're going to have a cookie, have a cookie." It is so simply put, but then it can actually mean something, depending on which way you choose to look at it. Either way, it was a nice little reminder that if you're going ( Read more... )

I am so full of useless information sometimes it drives me crazy. Like everytime someone opens their mouth to add their 2 cents into a conversation, I know the history behind it, why they think that way, and how I could change their mind. At lunch today, a girl was rambling about hating Catholics...and even though they are on the decline, she bases ( Read more... )
