i expect way too much from people
like going into high school, one with gifted students, i thought that it was gonna be different. i thought that i could finally avoid innocent students who have such bad influences nearby. i thought that none of them would ever talk about how high they got that one time, and how many people will come to their party with 4 cases of beer and weed.
my mom thought i was crazy for thinking this,
and i...
[Daniel runs down the stairs]
me: NO! DON'T COME DOWN YET!
Daniel: okay...
[Runs back upstairs]
yay i get to babysit the Kyle-Man on Saturday at...
i just looked at the scariest, most bizarre flickr photostream ever.
i hope she...
'Just Surrender...'

In English, we were assigned to recreate a section of ‘A Song Of Myself’ [much like what Katrina had to do]. This was our outcome:
You stomp by and accuse me, you complain of my adolescence and my lack of respect
Unlike you, I am not a bit tamed; unlike you, I am misunderstood. I blast my music over your intense argument
The last note in the song holds me back I lose myself in the...
kinky?
[watching "A Double Shot at Love"]
mom: are they making out?
me: who?
mom: the twins.
me: no, mom.
mom: that would be kinda kinky.
i'm excited
because i’m finally gonna make some dough, only $25 maybe but still good, and get some $90 DJ-like headphones that I didnt need my dad to buy for me.
but i’m not too excited about his 20 degree weather and my science fair crap-ject.
i’m sending the buyer my nintendo ds without a charger…uncharged.
– Daniel
me: dad, was I a mistake?
dad: EVERYONE'S A MISTAKE!
:( mayo is so unnessecary
This is my English group's poetic concoction
we had to paraphrase each line of “Song of Myself” part 52 and this is what we came up with. it’s a bit rough around the edges, but i actually really like it. :)
I am wild and misunderstood
Annoyed by my presence,
The hawk complains of my harping and standing aimlessly
I may not be translatable and tamed,
Yet I make a frightful sound on the top of the world
The last blow...
Where did you find this new-fangled music of yours?

This kid is the reason why abortions are legal.
– That’s what one person on YouTube said about this kid. Watching him is suicide at a slow rate. You can’t not get mad at it. You can’t.
I Sit & Look Out
the wind, the sky, the sun, the moon, the atmosphere strung together, making the Earth one i breathe in the moist, chilly air - making sure i am still here
i’m thinking about how small we are us humans: running, screaming, laughing not worrying about whether we really exist or if this is all just a dream
i allow the wind to capture my skin, body, and soul
without a care in the world
i sit and...
that's the most ridiculous thesis ever
my brother has to write an essay with the thesis: “Who Am I”
that is so vague. it would take me hours to write.
teachers shouldn’t be allowed to assign their students such a vague essay.
Unusual (and fun!) Date Ideas
Go on a search for as many good climbing trees as possible, climb as high as you both can in all of them, compile photo evidence
Go to a major chain bookstore, and leave notes to future readers in copies of your favorite books
Have her dress up as a ghost and you dress uup us Pacman. Walk around downtown holding hands, and whenever anyone sees you two, pretend to be embarrassed, and run off...
this manifest sign that i'm noticing
is making me yearn for that bike that i’m asking for even more - for my birthday.
it’s a Schwinn cruiser bike, and a full-size bike for once. it’s vintage looking, and i want to look like Corinne Bailey Rae does in her “Put Your Records On” video.
i want to ride it everywhere, and get out of this boring abode. i want to discover and contemplate and gaze at things...
that's probably a foreboding sign
telling me to do something other than go on the computer, play Rock Band 2, and watch TV all the time.
i think i can do more than that, and i definitely want to do more than that.
i know i should.
it gets kind of hard to be grateful of what you...
when other people your age have and have done so much more.
i'm going to california
chippednails:
to do a shoot for converse
:((
Live through this and you won’t look back…

I'm in love with being in love.
shae-bear:
At about 11 o’clock last night while I was drifting off to sleep, I had an “epiphany”, I guess.
I was thinking about past relationships/crushes/embarassing mistakes, and I really thought about what made me like them in the first place.
Was it their looks, smats, humor, style, or their crooked teeth? [haha, katrina]
Really what was so pleasing about the lot of them...
I stop somewhere waiting for you.
The spotted hawk swoops by and accuses me, he complains of my gab
and my loitering.
I too am not a bit tamed, I too am untranslatable,
I sound my barbaric yaws over the roofs of the world.
The last scud of day holds back for me,
It flings my likeness after the rest and true as any on the shadow’d
wilds,
It coaxes me to the vapor and the dusk.
I depart as air, I shake my white...
i put too much water in my hot chocolate.
i’ve NEVER seen a black person play tennis before.
– me - to Daniel, after he told me he wanted to join tennis at King
Happy Birthday Zach Doobie
that rhymes
:)
right now,
I want to write good songs and play and sing them well.
But I don’t think I’m capable of writing good songs and playing and singing them well.
I just want to know that once, when I was 14 years old, I wrote good songs and played and sang them well.
let’s get a “Heck Yes!” for poetry!
– Ms. Magar
marching bands of manhattan
katrina: what's the name of this song?
daniel: "your love is gonna drown."
katrina: no. that's what you said last time.
