They’re at it again. Violent sobs and broken fragments of english with a varied vocabulary of Tagalog. High pitched yells to discreet murmurs—another re-run of Family Feud. My mother is vulnerable, her usual screaming watered down by tears and a choke hold of words left unspoken, my father, usually collective and calm, now defensive over secrets that are no longer kept. What happens...
I think it’s very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone...

As much as I love to write, my English portfolio assignment is being neglected by weighted bags and a body waiting for the break down. I was supposed to have my intro and body paragraph(s) rough draft complete and typed by now and all I’ve got is a thrown together world salad of nothingness which fails to exceed the requirements—so I’m going to go with some B.S. excuse about me...

Mission: Prom
-I ended up deciding to borrow my cousin’s old red prom dress, which is absolutely gorgeous, but because she is shorter than me by a good few inches, its already hemmed and shows my feet just a tad. Atop that, Danny is barely taller than me, so it’s to go with flats or—? (pictures to be posted soon) -Dilemma: It doesn’t zipper 3/4ths of the way, and that’s a major...

Although I’m not into post-hardcore/metal-core (or whatever genre) as much as I used to be, I still consider WCAR as my favorite metal band of all time. I’ve seen them three times and met them during last year’s Warped Tour (made them sign my $2 bill). It just blows my mind that their fan base has blown up to the extent of international tours and now they are the ones making...
Oreos and 2% should not be at my disposal—no, no, not at all.
Giving myself until 1 AM to finish this 1980’s AP US History Power Point. I was designated this job out my group by the luck of the draw and although it seems fairly simple to put together a few pictures and a caption, my over-achiever-procrastinator self says otherwise. I’m going in depth, trying to understand each topic that my partners did so that when it’s time to present my...
silence will become our primary language
Need to rant to someone, anyone. ———- I’m livid and/or emotional, maybe both. I just went off on my best friend and never have I ever felt so compelled to pin-point a human being to the core. It’s confession session and there’s no mercy.

On impulse at Best buy, I bought the Flying Lotus and Fleet Foxes CD. It isn’t entirely too bad, currently mellowing out to Flying Lotus—just a melting pot of sounds and the harp in the background. I can dig.

Some days I swear I can feel you splitting the light through the window frame. The shapes it makes are always warmer, always brighter than the rest of what comes through. Some days I swear I can hear you sing to me or whisper my name in the slightest way. It’s like the warmest light now laid across my bedroom floor is somehow actually you and Not just sunlight. I have the memory climb down the...

I’ve been to Tysons, Dulles, Ross, Marshalls, and Burlington Coat Factory. I can not find a prom dress for the sake of my sanity. Are there any other convenient department stores I can go to? I want a neutral to solid based dress with nothing bedazzled or super raunchy, long dress, preferably. I refuse to order one online because I can’t rely on a picture and be unsatisfied..but if...
