Road

Sometimes I want to get out on the road and just drive.

Drive away from everything and everyone and never stop.

Singing old rock and country songs at the top of my lungs

and not caring if the people in the cars next to me stare.

Analytical-Persuasive Essay

So I have a new Language Arts project.

I have to write an analytical-persuasive essay.

Supposedly, the only two topics we can't

touch in our essays are abortion and religion.

So I think I'm going to write mine about the

unhealthy vision of beauty in our society.

I think I'll make it simple, start it off with a

bang, and just kill barbie.

Music

"Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes

I can barely define the shape of this moment in time

And far from flying high in clear blue skies

I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide."

And if I show you my dark side
Will you still hold me tonight?
And if I open my heart to you
And show you my weak side
What would you do?

Time

we all have good times.

we all have bad times.

we all have boring times.

exciting times.

productive times.

lazy times.

you could go on forever.

but when everything seems gone,

just remember,

you'll always have time.

and time takes pain away

better than any pills i know of.

Hello Dolly

"Eighty percent of the people in the world are fools

and the rest of us are in danger of contamination."

"A banana a day keeps the doctor away.

You mean an apple a day.

Who ever heard of a doctor slipping on an apple peel?"

"I've lost everything: my job, my future,

everything people *think* is important, but I don't care -

because even if I have to dig ditches for the rest of my life,

I shall be a ditch-digger who once had a wonderful day."

"I've never touched a woman before.

You still haven't. That's my corset."

"I don't mind that you never finish your lunch,

but I do mind that you never finish your sentences."

No Such Thing

there is no such thing as a bad person

people just think differently.

some people don't see things as clear as others.

and its harder for some people to feel guilty.

some people are mislead,

some people have been wronged,

and there is no one to help them.

but everyone has a good heart.

people make bad decisions,

but it's always with good intention.

adolf hitler, saddam hussein, osama bin laden

george bush, benedict arnold, voldemort

there all good in the end.

they just don't think clearly.

and their mistakes are bigger than ours.

Twenty

Alright, so there was this teacher-dude, right?

And he was a goooood teacher dude.

And this is how he started one of his classes:

He held up a twenty dollar bill and asked his class,

"Who wants this twenty dollar bill?"

Well, people's hands went up.

Then he says, "Well, I will give one of you this twenty

dollar bill, but first, let me do this to it."

Then he crumpled up the money, and asked.

"Now, who still wants it?"

Nobody put down there hand.

Then this teacher-dude threw the money on the floor,

and ground it into the dirtieness with his toe.

And asked, "Now who wants it?"

Nobody put down there hand.

He said,

"You still want the money, because no matter

what I did to it, the value was the same.

Each of us has been crumpled up and ground

into the dirty ground in our lives, but to the

people who love us, we are still priceless.

We never lose our value."

^^That? That changed my life.

Dice

It doesn't matter who,

when, or where...

you can always use

a hug.

I've always wanted to be something 'against all odds'.

'Smart against all odds'. 'Successfull against all odds'.

So I could say, "Yeah, thats how good I am. And you

should be proud of me. Against all odds, I was still

that."

I've decided on

"Happy against all odds."

I think it kinda has a certain ring to it.

happy pills

I am sorry.

And I understand.

If there were anything I could do

to make it better, trust me, I would.

But I can't.

Just know that I am trying.

Misperception

That was one of the most idiotic,

stupid things I have ever done.

Let's do it again!
