Recently, Mae and I have hit one of the biggest rough patches we've ever faced together, but for reasons of her own privacy and potentially maybe graphically and possibly legal reasons, I can't disclose that information. She and I are still strong and we still love each other, so to be honest, I'm just happy I can still hold her in my arms. If any of you have been praying for me recently, I owe you more thanks than you realize. Thank you.
On to other things about life, I'm not sure if any of
The GSA stands for the Gay/Straight Alliance. Recently, I have joined my school's GSA. Not due to my political opinion on gay rights or anything pertaining to my sexual orientation.
I think I realized what I want to in life the most.
I think I want, more than anything, is to fight for equal rights. Whatever one's political opinion may be.
So, since the GSA at my school is large in size but small in... doing anything, I decided to take an initiative and get started on something called, "
The bitter taste of the Starbucks coffee was hardly a concern. Normally, Chris would complain about how it tasted a bit processed and that he wasn't about to put in a fifth Splenda, but today wasn't one of those days. Today was the day Chris needed to rest himself, his mind, and his heart. It's been a while since he has had to make a decision he believed would mark the rest of his life. He chose to be answerable or accountable, reliable or dependable, and to be focused on one thing.

She knows what kind of people you are.
I've had a lot of time to rest, think, be myself, learn about myself, be a ##### to myself and those around me, and all have an excuse as to why I have that right. I've become what monks called enlightened.

One of the coolest, yet somehow peaceful sounding songs I've heard from a remix DJ(?). The lyrics have been questioned as to accuracy, since because of the high and low notes used it the super use of auto-tune, it's really har

He had it coming, trust me.
My mother left work early and we went to an orthopedic surgeon to diagnose if my ankle needed surgery or not, or whatever he could do to it. So, after poking my foot in 14 places as if he was a pressure point master working his voodoo on my appendage, he wrote a form for me to take an X-ray on my foot. We head over to radio
Well, it being the time of year, I feel like owe it to you guys to tell you that I still remember this blog, your blogs, this site, and how my life ranconcurrently with the blog entries.
Guess you can say I'm coming home.
It's been busy. I've moved from my last town, Framingham, to the town next to it, Ashland.

I left BZP and my blog for a while. I needed some time. Time to live by myself in the world and to take in all the change.
There was a lot of change.

I always liked this song from the beginning, because I remember this feeling so well.

...So back on May 12th, I woke up at 6:30AM on a Saturday in pain. It was strange to me. It was like indigestion, but it packed more of a punch. I had to wake up early that morning anyway, had a Saturday school (like I said before, I'm no saint ) so I figure considering I felt something like this back on New Years and I simply waited it by reading Breaking Dawn from halfway to finish. Unfortunately...
The pain got worse.
I couldn't stand it. I woke up my mom and told her about it. She gave

The following is a Creative Writing essay I had to write for class. The assignment was to take a picture of our choosing and write a story on it. I based the character 'Marcus' after two people, both knew Karate. Marcus was the name of this friend of mine who was a bit on the violent side back in the 4th grade. Didn't like him at times, especially during the headlocks. The other, where the character is more closely based, is Max. Nearly ninety percent of 'Marcus' came from him. Not many people l
Routine lives are usually what drives insanity. A man that works a 9 to 5 job in a cubical without any social life outside of his prison will damage his mental stability.
Unless his daily life is either one of two things:
1. Removal of routine and do something different which may change up every once in a while.
2. Keep with a routine, BUT... the routine evolves differently every day.
That's Number 2 for me- Rehearsal.
Rehearsal for my show, '¡Bocón!', this week was nothing short
Two nights ago, around 1 AM, I listened to Dusk and Summer by Dashboard Confessional, and I decided the only way I was going to sleep is if I write a poem.
This goes out to anyone who's lost the person they cared for, the person that made them breath in happiness and breath out all the pain, the person they loved.
She kissed your lips,
And she hugged you tight,
She ran her fingers through your hair,
And whispered, '"It will be right."
She meant some day,

Last weekend, I was cleaning my room. Your mom has the ability to nag you until you do so, and if your sister joins in, you're gonna clean your room sooner.
So I turn up the speakers on the computer and listen to my playlist. Because iTunes suck, and Zune Software is awesome. Eat your heart out Macintosh.
Forever by Chris Brown comes up in my playlist. It's in the love genre, it's a dance song, it flows pretty well into Shake It by Metro Station.

I realized I've had a problem. It's been going on for weeks, and takes a weekly pattern.
I have a different crush every week.
It's almost always based on personality.
Let me explain.
I was talking to my friend Adrianna in English class like a usually do, and she cracked a joke we both started laughing about. I looked at her again, and it was like going from an old Technicolor movie to HDTV. She became more beautiful to me, simply because I knew her personality better. I remember whe

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

I'm looking forward to 2009.
I don't know... why.
It's strange to me. A realistic pessimist, thinking the future is bright?
I guess it's somehow natural after all the #### the last 365 days brought. And you know it brought a lot at me.
After June's Plunge Into Heck and November's Road of Misery (yes, I'm starting to title events in my life), 2009 doesn't look like it could get worse.
Maybe I'll make enemies, maybe I'll face death, depression, loss of things I cherish

Whoa.
What a ride.
Let's start with my birthday.
December 19th, 2008-
I overslept on an early release. A Friday of all days. 11 AM the school got out, and of course, that's the time I woke up. The day was spent. I stayed online, receiving more 'happy birthday' messages then I ever had (and thank you) but with the snow storm that went along roaring throughout the day, any plan I had was immediately canceled. Including seeing my dad.
My mom was pushing me the entire week beforehand,
