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 [...]
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
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 [...]

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 [...]
This is a poem by a slam poet named Rafael Casal. I found out about this poem from Russel Simmons “Def Poetry Jam,” a TV program featuring slam poets. Please read and enjoy.
Sometimes I feel like I’m sittin’ in the back of Barbie and Ken 101.
A class we are all in, but never seem to [...]
I think it’s about time to set forth the rules I’ll be following over the next year. Stressing out is not supposed to be part of this project. It’s not supposed to be about worrying all the time about whether or not I will be able to write my blog post or if I’ll be [...]
In life, we expect too much. We expect to accomplish great things each and every day, we expect to change our lives with every decision we make. The only thing we are setting ourselves up for is disappointment. Now, I’m not saying not to have goals and aspirations in life, in fact, the opposite. But, [...]
