So in light of vacation this summer and who to invite... I realized today , that hardly any of my friends are GIRLS...  yes i have 100s of friends at school who are girls.. but very few that im really close too..

guys are a different story.. i've got too many guy friends..

Josef says that girls dont like me b/c i am a slut.  Allen says because i am a Dyke.  neither of these are true.. (i hope) 

So then why is it that i find girls incredibly hard to get along with. ?   females in general are vain and flat.  A horrible thing to say i kno... especially coming from me, as i am a big on equality for the sexes..  But at oakland girls care about what is on their heads... not what is in them.  They over react and love to cause drama.  Girls are for the most part less perverse than males...  I am a VERY perverse person and i think this has a lot to do with why very few females seek my friendship.. I have a horrible and sick twisted sense of humor ( that i wouldn't trade for anything) and  a mind set that will not let me settle for a lesser conversation when i know where to find a better one. 

I am NOT  a tom boy.. i care about what i look like to an extent, but appearance is not my life style and it never will be.  Im soo fucking sorry that i dont want to sit and talk about where i got every article of clothing on my body and how much i spent on each peice and who i was with when i bought it and what that person said about how cute it is.  ..  so sorry that i find othere things more entertaining and worthy of my oppinion.

dont get me wrong here.  There are a lot of girls who are not like this, and that i like very much.  But girls are mean...  mean mean mean... 

and guys have jsut always been nicer

7th and 8th grade.. Matt Ward was my best friend.

High School it has been Josef Beal.

Girlfriends come and go.... but the guys take more before they move on.

Rebekah is the same exact way.  the VERY EFFING SAME... this is why she is my ultimate best friend.. but on a scale scale she doesn't really count... b/c she is my sister. my real sister.  We;ve grown up together and in the process grown up almost the same.. not only in behaviour and ideas.. but in apperance also.

Then there is GG.... but she doesn't fit the catagory of a "girl girl"... she still is female and beatiful... but she isn't like the rest of them.  She has the loyalty that you find in guys.  that "i've got your back" shit.. no matter how stupid what you jsut did was...  She is my favorite girl....

so this has been LONG enough i dare say...

later

who else is ready to get the fuck away from this place... even if its only a week..

Spring break has never been so awaited.  and sooo longed for..

ok so my GMA down in West Palm Beach flies one of us kids down every spring break to spend it with her.  And this year is my year.  But after talking to her we've decided to have me visit this summer that way i will be able to spend multiple weeks with her adn my cousin and of course the beach...  : D  :D   :D  this makes me a little too happy..

also I GET TO GO TO HILTON HEAD ONE LAST TIME.... so Papa Fred sold Ocean Palms where we have spent our vacationing time for the past 9 years... :*(    yes it is very sad, b/c it has become a second home.  However... i get to roam the island this one last summer.  yes it will be a different resort.. but i can live with that.  Just to see our westin beach and pool one more time..

AND  i

get to  bring a friend again... so it will be just me and the G-rents ( argh) and hopefully my GG...

this makes me impossibley happy...

You're making a mess

SOmething i cant fix

this time you're on your own

Id make it alright

but i wouldn't get it right

im leavin it alone

FOr crying out loud

cryin' outloud

cryin' out

you're cryin' out

Yeah

You're making a mess

is that what you do best?

Is madness just a hand me down?

It's any one's guess

but i must confess

this performance isn't that profound

Yeah

I'm waiting for the end

waiting to begin again

You're making a mess

something you cant hide

a slow suicide

just one bite at a time

I should love you less

but i can't i guess

only God can save us now

Cryin' out

Yeah

And so is Friday Night

And so is Saturday Night..

THATS RIGHT 3 NIGHTS THIS WEEKEND NOT 2.

can i get a hell yes..

you call to me
and i surrender
my body aches with anticipation
as i bring you to my lips

you enter me and my muscles relax
longing for the energy I am about to receive
I take in more of you
I know you will bring me to my high

i had you yesterday
in the morning
and again after lunch
again before dinner

your surging force is intoxicating
but your effects are temporary
good thing that’s what I like
again and again I take your strength

again and again you leave me spent.

A flame ignites
As blue as sky
Rough and Hard
Not easy to die
But it goes threw wind, breath, and cries
And dwindles down
Red showing signs
It once stood tall
but breath does bend
The heat cools down
The flame now red
Yet still can burn
Still can flame
And now it lingers
Death nearby
Each word, Each breath leaves its sign
Until it dwindles
Until it dies

went to cafe coco last night with Josef and saw some pretty amazing performers..

one in particular. swingset everloving arms was amazingly powerful. made me wish i was gay guy...

it was fun..

so this weekend needs some MORE excitement.

So this past weekend was our first and only model un conference for this year.  We went to UT knoxville.  and road down there on the bus with Siegel.  It was probably the best school related trip that i have ever been on and i've been on quite a few.

as far as the conference goes we were all new (with the exception of Chante' , who in reality doesn't really count) and had no idea of what to expect or what would be expected of us.  Had we done it right we would have had to have done ALOT  of work.  But we didn't do it right. So we did zero work, and had a blast.

i think mr. huffman was a bit disapointed though.

however, it was still a very productive weekend.

For 2 years i have known Jenny Grissom, but have never really known her.  Well i got to and now i must say that she is pretty amazing.

we built a family over the period of this trip.

i will defenitly be going on it again next year.

pretty sure josef had the best birthday EVER.. :D

You were the hand that i tried to take

youre the decision that i could not make

youre the religion that i... should forsake

you were the story i tried to tell

you were the saviour that tripped and fell

beaautiful dancing infidel

who will guard the door?

when i am sleeping

who will guard the door?

when i am sleeping

im not sleeping

you were the season that would not change

i often was the same

then four horsemen came and

stole my name

who will guard the door?

when i am sleeping

who will guard the door?

when i am sleeping

im not sleeping

i never saw you fall apart

i never saw you work so hard

never saw you need no one

i am my father's son.

      Our deepest fear is that we are inadequate.  Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.  It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am i to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?"  Actually, who are you not to be?  YOur playing small doesn't serve the world.  There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people wont feel insecure around you.  We are born to manifest the glory within us... And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.  As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. 

Today i have realized jsut what exactly is going on in this house i call home.  Is there such a thing as too much love. ? Too much to where discipline and respect are thrown to the dogs and feelings of guilt replace them.  Is it love that makes  my parents not even try anymore?.  Or are they jsut so tired of it?.  So tired of what they have let carry on in this house for so long that they dont even want to deal with it??.  Is it better to let it continue than to put all energy into trying to start over and fix it. ?  Surely it is. Maybe i dont have the drive to help.  If it was to happen im sure i could find it in my self some where though.

This is going to be a really bad day.  At least the school day will be.

  I am soo tired.  i worked seven hours last night for my mom.  Open Bar wedding...  We dont hate Gail anymore, we found that out.  yeah.. she is a huge bitch, but she has to be.  And we're in no position to put judgement on someone just because they're a bitch...   ;)

not only am i tired, but i have 5 front back worksheets due  in Chem next period... Fuck i wish i was driven.  Wish that i cared...

So Bekah leaves on Monday... at like 4 am.  I am going to miss her terribley ...  My best friend leaving me for 5 months.  again ill be the only sane one living at the Luhrs House.  talking to my mom about things she shouldn't have to hear. just becuase bekah isn't there to take it instead.

The saddest songs are the happiest

the hardest truths are the easiest

put us bothf to the test

and tell me if you still need me

and i will swallow these words and see if i can still believe

The biggest lies are the little ones

when the look in your eyes is the distant one

angel or demon? you know that they can share the same bed

i've lain awake so long i've got them both inside my  head

This is what ill remember most about dying

for many moments life goes slipping through my hands

in vain

you were 80% angel 10% demon the rest is hard to explain

This American Dream maybe poisonous,

violence is contagious

crowded or empty. i walk these city streets alone

who ever brought me here is gonna have to take me home

This is what ill remember most about dying

This week has been HELL...

so much bloody homework... I welcome next monday, Just so i can start over.

So i've realized this week through all of this work... just how much time i have in one day... 24 Hours.. its not a lot but it is definetly enough.. Yet i dont use it wisely at all..

I slip yet agian into procrastinating... My life .. My calling..  I do ZERO of my work at home because i can not work unless i am under pressure.  I sit in my room and become distracted. Even if i was to sit in and empty room and do my home work  i think i would like play with my fingers or some shit..ANYTHING to not do my work.

But then the morning comes... and there is this RUSH... holy shit i have to get 5 sections of Precal done by 3rd period..The pressure is on, and im ready for it..

This is what i live for. those mornings, when my 3.8 GPA is on the line.

When i really dont care any more.. but yet i still do...  I get my 5 sections done.. whether copying or putting my nose to the grind stone and doing it myself.

So i say to myself.. " i will never put it off for this long ever again"  i kno i am lying to myself though... b/c i cant' not do it at the last minute.. It is my habit my addiction...  And it has never failed me yet.

I've yet to make a "C" in  a high school course.

i have not completed any of my model UN work

NONE

School

Model UN

Nothing

well it goes like this the fourth the fifth

the minor fall and the major lift

the baffeled king composing Hallelujah...

well remember when i moved in you

and the holy dove was moving too

and every breath we drew was hallelujah...

     This is most definetly my new favorite song.  Jeff Buckly.. i love his use of Hallelujah, b/c it isn't in the way of Worship.  He uses it to describe strong emotion, which ever one it may be.. its amazing.

alas my sister is leaving in the morning...

for three weeks .. when i was thinking i had her for 5 more...

she'll come back for two weeks and then leave to Korea for about 6 months... i honestly dont know how ill survive...

i cant wait for this night to get started...

a brand new year... all for me...

and you..

:D

i dont think i've ever loved life quite as much as i do right now..
i dont know where i've gotten such a zest for life.
no things aren't going my way
no i haven't found faith
no i dont have a perfect home life.
no i dont have love
no i dont have fame or fortune
no i dont have a million new tings from christmas..

however i do have
my sister
my GG
my Josef
my MOm'
music
books
peace
power

what more could i possibly need..

josef said his dad said that good things come to those who wait... whhile josef my disagree.
i've waited for years to be at peace with myself and what i have in this life..

im not a good person and i dont deserve this..... but i sure as fcuk can WAIT...

all the hype and histeria... over gifts and religion and family...

however i  never get in the spirit anymore. not since i was little and even then it was for all the wrong reasons.  Presents...

I think one person has it right this holiday season.  Sarah Hayley. One of the girls that bekah goes to school with in Maryville Tennessee.  She is neither giving or accepting gifts this year.. no exception. As a protest to the corprate Christmas. 

christmas is lame overrated superficial and hypocritical.. People act like they care about others at christmas time but every other day of they year they dont give a fucking shit.

Maybe i'll find a christmas worth celebrating this year.

I felt my world almost collapse today.
i cant remember the last time i cried... yet today i haven't been able to stop

I guess the thought of losing my best friend overwhelmed me.
I cant describe how sick my stomache felt all day after seeing her like that. It breaks my heart to see GG cry because of something i've done.

yet it had to be done.. it would have been done sooner or later. I think we both knew that deep down..

the thread that first bound us is no longer holding us together. But its ok, because we built on it these past 3 years and stronger ones are in place to take care of the one that is no longer there.

I feel like total SHIT but then i also feel completely FREE...like a huge weight has been lifted off of me and now i can't wait to spreadd my wings and see where they take me.

Today i also realized how great of friends i have... Josef, Cindy, Chante, Christian, Heather, Jennifer,Malory and even Allen. I'm happy that i have the support that i needed so desperatly.

My MOther is Amazing...

Hope like Hell we wont have school tomorrow.

to want
to covet
to drool over
to hope for
i realize now
for the first time in this life
what it is that i wish i had more than
ANYTHING
i want to be happy
really truly happy
and content
with having absolutely
NOTHING at all...

was he right or what???

life blows right about now... we should fix it.
