Speak

I never think I realized how much of my life is like the movie "Speak". How throughout the movie she is unsure how to tell anyone about what happened to her, and even the one "friend" she has won't even give her the time of day to say anything. She even questions if anyone would notice if she simply stopped talking all together. That moment when she's sitting at the pep rally, watching the guy who assaulted her all over another girl, she runs. For me, instead it was a friend and I had to watch as everyone believed him instead of me, how everyone trusted that I was the one who forced him into it. Watching my "friends" disappear was one of the hardest things I'd ever live through, or just seeing which ones actually cared enough to listen. They were all so sure I has "misunderstood" that because I didn't scream or say "no" that it was just fine. Sometimes, I still get the flashbacks, those are the worst. They keep me up at night sometimes, I stopped sleeping a year ago, sometimes I yearn for the moments when I used to be able to sleep soundly. I still sleep, but I have dreamless nights, and seemingly endless days. With finals and graduation looming around the corner I find myself constantly wondering what I'm going to do with my life, and if I'll be good enough to actually succeed at what I do. I have more to say, but until the words come I just don't know what to write.

Wind Runner

Well, I'm up to about 3 posts in one day. I ran away a little while ago. But, I came back like I always do. Because, wherever I go they will find me and bring me back to where I started right here (in my house) I'll be writing most of the night anyway. It's about midnight here in NY. So, yup. Well, this is how the whole running away thing got started. I had been merely on the computer watching 'Picture This' on youtube. A simple evening for me, but then I hear my step-dad (ok, ewww I cannot say that word he should never have the word 'dad' in that title or whatever. I never liked him and never will. So I'll call him Mr. X.) Mr. X had called me over to the computer to sign into my itunes account because they had gotten a bill saying that itunes was used up to 60 dollars. Anyway, how that had actually happened was an accident, you see I had a graduation party for graduating middle school. So I had wanted an itunes card and, I would pay Mr. X back. So I ma...

Accepted

College. The words that determine the rest of your life. The words that run across your mind once you graduate high school. The words that make you think of parties and four more years of exams. However, this is the chance when you get to choose how you spend your days, what you learn right? At least that's the look I see on many freshman when they come to college, all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed jumping at the opportunity to take a reign on their lives or you have those who are excited for the four years of partying that comes ahead, and finally you have those students who come in trailing behind their parent waiting for the tour to be over usually listening to music. These three type of students however, all fall into the same muddling and confusing first year of college, where all three take the same meaningless courses and after the year is over worry about what is next. This is the point where the education system comes in and molds you. In college, the choice is everything. ...

The Freedom-less

Dreaming of Freedom      Well, here I am in physics class wanting to do nothing more than write, type all the thoughts that flow through my spirit and spill them on to these pages. Reveal all the secrets that I keep hidden in my heart. Well, my mother discovered that Tyler and I made love and is punishing me because of it. Forcing us to be unable to see each other, pay for tutoring, and be constantly tracked. I feel like I'm a deer trying to run from the hunter. And as the days go by I feel as though I'm slowly loosing my mind, I'm on complete lock down where the only things I can do are go to doctor's offices, work, school, and home. Its completely torturous, to the point where I've almost given up all hope completely and we almost broke up. But, through it all I know that even though the situation is difficult I will be twenty times as miserable if we weren't together. My mother has decided that I'm unfit to live life, because I love someone everything...
