Friends: Part 2
I am almost over my illness and it is quite a relief to be able to use both nostrils to breath with again. I am waiting for my mother to finish her phone conversation, and then we are going to rent a movie or go to the theater. Recently, I have been quite preoccupied with my peers. I have been so preoccupied that I have left little time to be a productive member of my family. I feel like a bum...
Friends: Part I
What a perfect day for thoughts. I am sitting at home, alone, sick, and it is overcast outside as it usually is in these parts. Many times I have written about the great connection between people, and most times it has been from the perspective of people as a genaral unit. I would like to take a moment to get my thoughts down on friendships. Specifically, this triad that I have right now.
I have...
A Message To My New Readers:
Before reading this, take a minute to be at peace with your minds.
I want to begin by saying that I am not interested in your intentions. Nor am I interested in your feelings, your anger, your frustration etc… I am not interested in whether you like or dislike me. I am not even particularly interested in whether you will take this to heart. I am interested, however, in you. You are both...
There is a Solution!
If you are offended by anything you read here, there is a quite simple and effective solution. Don’t read it! There is no reason you should be creeping around on my blog, and then confronting me at school about it. Yes, I’m talking about YOU. Changing spark plugs is my business. I am SO done with you.
peace-

Think about this:
When you look up at the stars on a clear night, what do you think about? Now, how would you look at them if the atmosphere was not transparent and we could only see them once in a thousand years? How would man appreciate their divinity then?
Thanks for the book, Katie. I really like it so far.

Life is good.
We walked in and she was like “Do you guys need menus?” “Nope” “Alright, sit anywhere” “Thank you” And then she poured us our usual two cups. Life is good. Also, this new group of three feels like it will last for a while too.
Someone new in my car
I changed the spark plugs on my car. The old ones were getting on my nerves. They were dirty and inefficient. Sometimes they would just start getting in the way of things, when all I wanted to do was drive. Even after I took them out, they would still drip oil all over the place and try to stain my things. But these new ones are good — they are responsive and understanding when i need to...
Aint no college gunna tell me what to do!
So tonight i went to Mississippi Pizza with my mom. She is allergic to gluten, so we go there sometimes. Anyway, we had an important talk about my future. I’m not sure what I want to do yet, so I told her that I want to go to PCC and get my pre-reqs out of the way first before I make a commitment. She agrees that this is a fine idea, but she is just worried that I will lose motivation and...
Things Are Indeed Weird
This morning in English, someone fell out of their seat and fainted. She must have drank the water.. Drank? Drinken? Drunk.

Who Faints At An Eye Exam?
Well, me i guess. Today I was getting an eye exam because I had tried my friend’s glasses and I could see a little bit clearer with them on. Anyway, the test was going pretty well. I had no problems—until we got to the eye pressure check.
The nurse or whatever she was told me to tilt my head back. I asked why and what she was doing. She said it was eye drops to numb my eyes for the...
Advice To A Sinner
Listen, young Sinner, to your heart. And then you will see, If you are indeed as evil as they say. Not because you will find the answer within, But because you have searched. You have looked. You have tasted. To be a Sinner is to be forsaken. Your fiery end is never mistaken. You will surely choke on the fruit that you swallow. And at your feet, You shall have swarms waiting to eat the meat, For...
Philosophies and Things: Excerpt from an old...
I know very little. I am no Buddhist, nor do I claim to be. I do not meditate. I know no Zen. However, these are all just names for things that others have developed throughout history. It is possible for all of these to occur naturally in humans, without an organized process behind it. Humans tend to be led by other humans, and those leaders are led by ideas. We are social. We live in groups....
First Post
This is not actually the first post. The real first post was unsuccessful because I could not figure out how to get more than the title to show up. That was about two weeks ago.
Anyway, pretty much the same thing that happened then happend tonight. I went to coffee with two good friends of mine. We chatted for about 2 or 3 hours about life, girls, school… the usual. We also discussed what...
