Growing Pains
I try, but
this is not A for effort
no gold sticker, silver medal
no words to encourage,
it’s real life
my agony and joy,
no benchmark standardized test
like the good ole days
in grade school.
Adolescence treated me well
a grand time when truth was fact
and fact was truth
who the hell taught me that?

High School
is over tomorrow.
Like everybody else, I had my highs and lows during these four years. It’s one of those things that people barely take the time to enjoy until it ends and we realize we took it for granted. We got used to the routine of seeing certain friends in the morning, talking about our weekends, planning outings, complaining about class - all of that is over…for good. But...

So I decided I am going to blog this summer...
It’s no surprise that I consider myself an idealist. People often confuse idealism with childishness or naivete. Truthfully, I was one of those people who would shoot arrows of wry, caustic cynicism at anybody foolish enough to embrace such a mentality. I’d think, what pitiful beings caught in a world of illusion, unaware of the pain and suffering ensuing beyond our borders, numb, drugged with...

Holy Crap.
High school is ending.
I have always had trouble grasping the concept of time…okay not the concept, but the whole “living in the moment” thing. I guess my real problem is that I don’t recognize when the “end” of something is near because I just don’t think about these things. I like to enjoy myself, but in doing so I end up losing sight of reality. And...

Introvert
There are times when I’m a total homebody. I need to separate myself from the world and be at peace listening to slow songs, thinking about the person I’ve become. One word to describe me today: detached.

Confession
Life has been reduced to cryptic little 140 characters or less status updates, headlines, the bare bone of communication, none that explores the color of our language, none that offers precision and clarity or any development of thought. I am guilty of such a crime in that I too choose to neglect the full length of a story and skim because “life is busy” when I know perfectly well I...
We are all just quickly trying to find ourselves
As we realize our dreams are finally within reach.

I am my own worst enemy.
Live breathe eat sleep self-destruct boom boom.
Maybe I should have a plan instead.
Listening to Jimmy Eat World like it's middle...
This weekend has me thinking about where I want to live next year but I’m feeling super nostalgic at the same time. I have little phases with my music where I listen to an album or a playlist repeatedly until I get sick of em and it is forever solidified in my memory as the soundtrack to a particular time in my life. It’s a mental diary of sorts…but also a good way to ruin...
