Teddy,

I don't even know what to say, other than I don't understand how you could ever possibly not exist in this world with me. I'm not sure I want to live in a world where you don't exist, where you're not excitedly exclaiming that we've found a common interest, whether that be a song (The Red by Chevelle), a celebrity (hello, Lana Del Rey), a ( Read more... )

The first black president was just elected in the United States of America.  Barack Obama has just made history, and I've never been moved by such an event.  I'm sitting here alone on my couch in my apartment and all I want to do is yell "finally!" at the top of my lungs.  When ABC proclaimed Obama the 44th President, goosebumps rose all over my ( Read more... )

Horoscope October 20th, 2008:

Keeping in touch with your friends is extremely important in life, but so is getting back in touch with yourself! Being aware of who you really are and what you really want out of life isn't something that comes without careful and deliberate focus. Plus, it takes time -- so if you are feeling the urge to knock off the ( Read more... )

I'm finding myself more and more annoyed by the people that surround me daily.  I know a large percentage is due to some serious pms-age right now, but I simply cannot keep myself from feeling like I'm losing a substantial quantity of brain cells at any given time being in this town.  Some of it is due to pure stupidity of the interests that people ( Read more... )

Really, it just comes down to the fact that I have an extremely hard time being happy for other people.  Not ALL other people, just certain people here and there.  But it's a problem...and I know it has everything to do with my mindset, but I just can't seem to shake it.

I'm sorry. I just can't be happy for you right now, and I'm gonna have to ( Read more... )

There's something beautiful about knowing every bump, dip, and pot hole in the road leading you home.  There's this moving intimacy in which you feel connected to this familiar path that guides you to the warmest of all places: home.  It feels like some part of me was taken this week when the roads of our neighborhood were repaved, and those  ( Read more... )

I always make writing out to be this stressful task that I'm never in the mood to do....I always forget that it's one of the most therapeutic things that I know of.  Well, I take some of that back...sometimes I do truly find it stressful because I sit here and create entries almost targeted at my future self.  I generally say to myself "when I read ( Read more... )

And so begins another episode of reflection.  I've got everything in relaxation mode...dark room, candles lit, soft music playing, no homework or obligations tomorrow....and yet I cannot be calm.  I can't help but to think back on the past week and be genuinely sad.  Sad not for myself, but sad for those living with me in their ignorant and ( Read more... )

I haven't written anything in such a long long time.  There was a time in my life where I would write almost everything down, whether it be my thoughts, or just what I did that day.  I feel like when I stopped writing, a change happened within me, and I lost the part of me that really knew myself.  I feel like recording my thoughts really helps me ( Read more... )

So affections fade away, and do adults just learn to play the most ridiculous, repulsive games?
