You reach
a point when things are good. I haven’t really been this content in high school. School is easy, and I’m mellow, so why would I wish away the days? College will be fun, something entirely new, but until I get there I’m happy where I’m at.

DANGIT.
I already planned my life and now I want to be a crop duster pilot. Like a regular pilot, but less intense.

I've never quite agreed with the phrase,
“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” What about getting hit by a bus but not dying? I’d say if anything I’d lose a lotta strength from that one.

The Adventures of Metaphysical Analogies with...
I called dibs or several of the more useful books for our research paper on Macbeth. Shayne rolled his eyes and I remarked “Oh, hey, just like girls!” We proceeded to create the extended metaphor between books and girls. When we returned to our seats I had two, and he had none. He commented that he could always just use the internet, but the internet was a whore, everyone could use those assets....

I am starting to think that
John Green spied on me for inspiration for Augustus Waters. I feel like he has the same random, stupid thought patterns that I do.
“And I wondered if hurdlers ever though, you know, This would go faster if we just got rid of the hurdles.”

Hey everyone!
I wore a different coat to school today and didn’t get shocked!
However, last night while going into the Dollar Tree, some guy closed his door and shouted, “Son of a B*tch! It shocked me”
At the time I thought he said “shot” me, but I assumed his reaction would have been slightly different if that had occured. I wonder how I would react if I were shot?

The Fault in our Stars Chapter One is quite good. I’ve realized every book I’ve read lately has been superb and I have a list of more to read. In fact, most movies I’ve seen lately have been good. And most painitngs I’ve been doing are darn decent.
Why do people ever wish away the time? I love what I’m doing. I’m having fun. Now, just a few more tweaks and I...

I like “peace be with you”. I wish I could say it to someone when I generally wanting their lives to be nice and them to be happy without the religious connotation. It doesn’t have to be that, it could just be good tidings.
Anonymous asked: I would say, but I don't know what's more odd. Me being anon and saying this or me being someone you don't know very well and saying this. Either way, compliments are always nice so I thought I'd give you one. :)

Analysis of the Hunger Games thus far
I liked Cinna, but that’s to be expected. He’s a good fella, good character.
Also liked how they ended part 1. Very cutesy.
“I don’t think it’s going to work out. Winning…won’t help in my case.” ”Why ever not?” ”Because…because…she came here with me.”
tehe.
Also I think a hunger games video game would be...

I am disappointed
with the creativity of television. All of the shows that are serious are either about doctors or detectives. Lost never really went anywhere but at least it was something different. I just think if I were a producer or whatever I would look for something unique. What ever happened to those grand stories that we heard as children that had interesting plots!? I ask people to tell me a story and I...

Well i'm reading the hunger games
I didn’t wanna be “that guy” who doesn’t read the book. Trailer looks nifty. Katniss seems very one-dimensional currently. Also, the Decembersits and Arcade Fire did a song for the movie, very nice.
what is the infinitive of should?
everytime i blow out of my nose
it makes a whistling noise. tehe.

I am on
a teen council at my local museum. We host an event each month as a place for teens to hang out. Our first one got about 6 people. Our second got more than 20. Tonight, it was in coordination with a Student Night and another event that got over 100 people, most of which were teens. Many of my friends were there to support me. Such a great feeling not only that if you work at something that it...

It seems that my hair is very soft and therefore girls like to play with it. This is quite good because I like having my hair played with.

The beginning of another essay
Every few years throughout my childhood, my sister and I would compete in a challenge when the newest Harry Potter book hit the shelves and we would race to see who could finish the book first. Although my sister, nine years older and reading the works of Shakespeare and Fitzgerald in high school, possessed a superior reading ability, I would always scheme in order to bring about a victory. ...

My father and I
had a conversation about colors of paint and mixing them in watercolor vs. acrylics for about 10 minutes while we played ping pong. I’m so proud.
By the way, redeeming my honor. I won 4 lost 2 tonight.

I am sitting
square between two televisions set on the same channel. It is terribly difficult to tune out when it sounds all echoey. I feel like I’m in a stadium, but without the amazing heart thumping music; the performer is only some dull news caster.

I find that
Fitzgerald’s life was more interesting than his stories. Just me though. Probably a side effect of reading a 700+ page biography of the guy.

Risd Essay
Promt: A rubber ball, two inches in diameter. Make a list of 50 things you could do with this ball. OK, let’s be reasonable, 25 would be good. OK, final offer, make a list of things, length of the list up to you… and the length of the list is not the most important thing, is it?
-I fruitlessly spent the last half hour digging through the far reaches of my brain for something to do. However, the...

Do you know
the cubes that can be seen both ways or the old/young lady or other optical illusions? We were looking at those today in my psychology class and everyone could not see more than one at a time. As soon as he puts them up I can see all possible options and switch back and forth between them at will. I think it’s because I’ve always looked at shadows or trees or clouds or fabric and seen...

My GOSH the little things.
I just watched House. At the end, Chase rejoins the team and while everyone else continues, House and Chase do a little nod thing. SO MUCH IS SAID in that little nod. I love it. I love the little things.
