It is with the utmost regret that I am writing these sentences. Over the past 21 days, I have done my best to keep up with my writing and picture taking goals. Unfortunately, I have found that taking one picture a day and writing one blog post a day is not as feasible as I [...]
I want to put my secrets on the page,
Put them there and leave them behind.
But words just cant capture the rage,
The rage that seems to ensnare my mind.
There are many points in the day in which I wish I could yell my secrets out to the world. Like Postsecret, I yearn for someone to know [...]
I’m one of those people that likes to take on multiple projects at one time. I’m someone who likes having things to do, if said things are enjoyable or contribute to an enjoyable experience (read: not school work). Here are some projects that I’m working on this semester, and a shot overview on each of [...]

8AM: French Immersion II
I have a love hate relationship with this class. It’s mostly just doing exercises in French. There isn’t really a method of learning other than mindless repetition.
10AM: Accelerated Chemistry III
Everyday, I wonder why the hell I chose to take this class when I didn’t even need it. I find [...]
In life, there are many things that inspire me. Mainly, it’s beauty in nature: the wind blowing through the trees, the way sun would shine on a pond. But, every once in a while, I’ll meet someone, a person, who makes me really see beauty in life. It’s not that often, and sometimes it may [...]
As time has gone on, and as school has begun, I’ve found that blogging everyday is quite demanding. While taking photographs everyday is hard, blogging in addition adds to the things I already need to do. I don’t know what I can do to make it easier, other than reducing how often I blog. I’m [...]
In a recent study, one I do not have the time to link to, someone scientists have found that playing Tetris, the addictive classic, helps prevent one’s brain from registering traumatic experiences.
In a way, I can understand where they are coming from. Not because it’s Tetris, because that game is annoying as all hell, but [...]
Poetry is this thing, you know?
This representation of the poets soul.
An unadulterated, unmolested, pure and untouched glimpse
Into the mind and body of the poet.
A poet will gather these pieces of their soul,
Collecting,
Categorizing,
And storing them for future use,
With the hope that one day these feelings, emotions, and thoughts
Will be released through written or spoken word,
And like [...]
When did Education become a replica of
The already sick, twisted, mangled American culture?
When did it become about GPA’s and reports,
Degrees and qualifications?
When did it become about money, distinction, and prosperity?
Why is education refused to those who can’t afford it?
Those who can’t afford to put more money into a bloated system?
Those who work, those who live [...]
