I am so tired of people telling me about what foreigners say about us. Because, while it may be true, people love to use stereotypes and generalities. My French teacher told us that as long as we tried to speak French while in France, we would be okay. French people don’t expect much from us [...]

“Why do we fall, Bruce?”
I’ve reached some quiet time today when I was editing my story, so while I contemplate how to use it, I am going to post about what’s been going on.
Yesterday, I watched all of my comic book/sexy main men movies to occupy my whirling mind. Van Helsing, Hellboy, Batman Begins. I [...]
Excerpt from My Story
Posted in ME!!, Writing and Literature, tagged My Story, Writing on January 24, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Okay, you guys need to anticipate the first few excerpts of my story Tarot Cards and Black Roses. I’ll give you a little synopsis. I write fantasy, by the way. My main character is Rebecca Winter and she has freedom issues. It’s set in the 1800s, but I’m not sure exactly when. I still have [...]
In Memoriam: Heath Ledger

At 28 years old, one of my favorite actors is dead. I did not want to believe my dad when he told me, but a quick trip to CNN, I found it was true.
As you know they found him dead in an apartment, naked with sleeping pills beside the bed. Everyone is waiting for the [...]
Ah, The System

I think that teachers in this country have it rough. Not just rough, but extremely rough. I don’t know if the joy of teaching someone something would actually compensate for the…oppression?
That word is a little harsh. But, still. They cannot express any opinions–outright anyway–and it just seems like they are constantly looking over their shoulders for [...]
Running Away: Simple Solution for a Simple Mind
Posted in A Day In My Life, Friends, ME!!, My BFFL, My Surroundings, Thoughts, tagged Friends, Life, Love on January 22, 2008 | 2 Comments »
This title applies to me in so many ways it is so not funny. I have a tendency not to address issues unless it becomes so bad that I can barely stand it. I cannot stand it anymore.
I have this issue with relationships. Not just the boy-girl crap, but even with my friends, and I [...]
You Cannot Win
Posted in ME!!, tagged Life on January 18, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Someone told me today that you could not win. He had no idea. I have tried to do so well in my AP class and I’m getting nowhere. I try to do extracurricular, but I end up giving them up because my parents have already adjusted their schedules to my brother’s need. I’m fine with [...]

Okay, I want to use these next five minutes to gush about my favorite author ever….And the fact that she talked to me! *squeal* Kim Harrison, bestselling author of the Rachel Morgan series talked to me, me! She talks to other people too, but I have been a fan from the very, very beginning. I [...]
Fools and Kings

So, I was thinking about the United States on a general basis. A few of my friends and I were talking about men and their association with the United States. Since this country has been founded, the only people to ever take control are old white men. Don’t you find that slightly ironic? All this [...]
Broken Mirrors, Broken Heart, 7 Years of Bad Luck Either Way

I was looking at my blog stats a second ago, and besides people looking at my Mick St. John page (yum), I get a lot of visitors to my Post Break-Up Depression post.
I sincerely regret that post now.
About half of the world has now read about the first time in my life I have ever [...]
