Live to hate?
Why would someone decide to live their life in pure hatred? I was reading about the KKK during the 1920s, and they were literally anti-everything. anti-foreign, anti-Catholic, anti-black, anti-Jewish, anti-pacifist, anti-Communist, anti-internationalist, anti-revolutionist, anti-bootlegger, anti-gambling, anti-adultery, and anti-birth control.
Especially during the 1920s, the “roaring...

Racist teen girls
I just watched this youtube video “racist white teen girls goes on a rant about black people” on youtube, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a video that has made me more upset. Past the racism, the stereotyping and use of the n-word, it was the sheer ignorance that made me want to reach inside that computer screen and give them a piece of my mind. Especially that girl...

I might have already made a post about this so bear with me, but sometimes I just cannot stop thinking about it.
There’s this boy at my school and I every time i see him my heart tugs for him. I’ve never seen him with a friend, never seen him talk with somebody, and I’ve never seen him laugh. It’s not that he looks sad, he just looks like no one cares about him. I’m...

If you think about it, aren’t we just all preparing to die? Nursery school is to prepare us for Elementary school. Elementary for Middle School and Middle for High School. High School ideally, is to prepare us for college. College prepares us to get a job. Jobs are to earn money to essentially earn enough to retire comfortably in your old age. And when that day comes, you wait, until you...

Do you ever have those days...
You know those days when just about everything goes wrong. when every little thing is just trying to make your day that much crappier. I don’t get those often. Normally I’m pretty upbeat, but for some reason, everything is just getting down on me lately and I feel like I have nothing to look forward to. I need to escape this cycle. Wake up, school, homework, sleep. I honestly cannot...

An english project.
My new English class is amazing. It’s called the analysis of the writers craft, but really all we do is is creative writing. I never realized how much i truly enjoy expressing myself through writing. We have to write 10 stanzas with 3 sentences each about ourselves, and I really enjoyed writing it… [very rough draft, I haven’t edited it yet:)]
I was born on Thanksgiving Day,...

Humid summers. Crisp falls. Allergy ridden springs. Frigid winters.
The smell of low tide in the summer. Rotting leaves in the fall. Pollen in the spring and snow in the winter.
the sound of church bells, seagulls, children laughing, bike bells ringing, empty canons set off at 9.
I miss the East Coast.

Recently, I have come to accept that I don’t believe in God. My dad is catholic, and my mom is also religious. I’ve been going to Sunday school since I was a little kid and my dad has taken me and my sisters to church every Sunday for as long as I can remember. The first time I can remember doubting if God was real was in 4th grade, but I told myself I should not think that way. Here...

My sister was born with numerous complications. She had two tumors, was several weeks early, and to top it all off she was born deaf. It’s a miracle she is alive and I’m so happy to have such an amazing sister. Recently though, she’s been feeling self conscious about being deaf. She has two cochlear implants which allow her to hear, however, it’s not the same as having two...

It’s common that people are categorized as being optimists, realists, or pessimists. Now, I completely understand how someone can be an optimist or a pessimist, but how can someone be a realist. Because it’s not like the optimist and the pessimist try to only think happy or negative thoughts, they think they are being realists, because deep down they truly believe they are correct,...

Nothing like a nice run. I love the feeling of passing people on walks while I run. I know I sound like a jerk, but in reality it just makes me feel faster than I’m actually going since I’m such a slow runner. And then a song like HAM by Jay-Z & Kanye West comes on and I feel like I could literally sprint 36 miles.
Some scattered thoughts about running

my listening experience.
So this Christmas, i got Dre solo headphones. I know, I know, I would look like a complete poser if I were to wear them in public, so for now I listen to my music in private… in my room, alone. First on the list was Watch the Throne with Kanye and Jay-Z.
Holy crap. It’s hard to explain it, but I have never been so moved by a song and then the rest of the album was just as amazing. I...
