Push a little more

Oh thunder in my heart
These razors cutting sharp
And leaves me with an ever bleeding scar
So soft, so suddenly
So that I can not breathe
I'm drawn into a circle painted black
Oh I'm hanging high
Oh won't you let me down
Back where I started at
You know I'm a little lost

Twin sized

I miss having my twin sized bed. It meant that I was still
independent. I was my own single entity. I do miss that, and it's a
large reason as to why I would like to live on my own. Despite being
in a relationship, there are many things I'd still prefer to keep to
myself, knowledge I don't want to share with anyone else. It's not a
matter of keeping secrets, for there's no intent in harming anyone. I
think just the fact that I need to be my own motivation is my
biggest motivation. I could be so sick with myself, but if I continue
living with this behavior, there's just
no end in sight. I need some tough love and I need to be the one
to provide that for me. It's too easy.

Does this mean I'm giving up on a spoiled life? Was I ever
that type of person to begin with? For as long as I can remember, I
don't believe I ever was. I don't think I can be. I'm missing the
conflict and the growth that I need. It saddens me, but I feel it to
be an inevitable change occurring in my life.

In one ear

and straight out the other. I've realized that the last year was nothing but a waste of energy on my behalf. I haven't been interested in my studies for so long, and my grade point average has definitely dropped below preferences. You know, it might be important to have something to write about rather than keeping my opinion out of everything. What are blogs for other than something to read about? I wonder if any other people write about themselves for the entertainment. Every Tuesday and Thursday I enter into the same classes, and today I'm about to fall sleep.

I do want to continue my education, but I'm just so tired. I'm not completely sure why I am here.

Pushing Daisies

I can do better than this. I can do better than I have done in order to succeed. I admit, I've been a bit too relaxed when it came to my studies, and boy does it show. In fact, as I am sitting here in the library, I'm updating my blog. I woke up from a nap earlier and am still in a groggy mind state.

I have friends who are going to law school. I may have never imagined myself in that position, but I don't think it's time for me to give up yet. I think I can go further with my studies. I think I can find myself even more if I refuse to give up, maintain my optimism and determinism. Let's start in the now so the future can be bold.

Older Sister

I used to have a profound and deep love for Little Brother. I'm not sure what it was, but I think it's the ability to understand their references, the intertextuality of their lyrics. It's been a while since I've listened to them, so I think I may take a gander and enjoy them once again.

The Sob Story


As Spring break came to an end, I somehow found myself disillusioned with everything around me. The sudden urge to do my schoolwork overcame me, but I've lazily been half-assing my work. ahh things don't change much.

There were some high points to the week of supposed rest. I went to the After School Special CD release party at Kava lounge and it was a good turnout. I forgot what it felt like to support friends, and it's always in my memory that I have a plethora of friends back home who are just as talented, maybe even more. I may have lost touch with the people back home, but it'll come back. I'm just not in the same place as they are, as free as they are. Give it some time. I'm almost there. I am rather happy where I am right now, and I know that when the opportunity arises, I'll be prepared.

Have I lost that touch? That ability to have a conversation with someone? The innovation and creativity that makes me who I am? My wardrobe is amiss with the characteristics I use to portray, the taste of my personality.

Ahh, let's change what the world has to offer.

Clear as the Ocean Blue

There have been numerous times in my life when I've discovered a sense of clarity in the ocean sea. My experience with it today wasn't the most subtle, as I squinted into the glaring reflection, a sign of future as well as the culture of the past. I bid you adieu as my eyes rest from the brightness of the light.

My ass is ready for sleep, but the light is still on.

Quick notes of my own, for my own.
