So far every doctor that I’ve seen says that I am the way I am because of how my parents treated me growing up. I’m always screamed at and punished for not doing something, and never in my life have I been praised for doing it. If I go out of my way to do something to help my parents out such as clean all of the downstairs rooms, my mom will just snap “you should do it anyways...

I dreamed I was dying as I so often do, and when I awoke I was sure it was true. I ran to the window; threw my head to the sky and said whoever is up there, please don’t let me die. I can’t live forever. I can’t always be. One day I’ll be sand on the beach by the sea. Pages keep turning, I’ll mark off each day with a cross and I’ll laugh about all that...

I don’t give a shit if I have no life. I don’t enjoy being around shallow people anyways. I’m going to spend the last week of break doing all of my work. I’m starting tonight and not stopping until I’m finished. Do I want to? No. Will I anyways? Yes.
I’m going to spend my precious free time making up the shit I was too lazy to do during school. I’m going...

I don’t know if it’s because it’s Christmas, but I feel a strange sense of well being. It’s something I haven’t felt in a long time. In the last week I’ve had so much time to do whatever I feel. I’ve gone for walks, finished several books, listened to music, and slept to my heart’s content. I feel great right now. I feel productive. I want to...

christmas eve eve
Woke up this morning to find that it was bright and sunny outside. After a few chores, I called up Zarinna and we walked to mcdonalds. After sitting for a while we went to the bookstore down the street and I bought 5 beautiful, classic-bound books for $4.75. I love that store.
We walked all the way back to her house first where I thought I was going to rendezvous with my sister, but she was at...

waiting.
This year, all I’ve been doing is stalling in my room, waiting. The winter solstice has finally passed so the days will finally start to get longer. It makes me wonder, will every year be like this? Will I spend the winters counting down to spring, waiting for the rain to stop, waiting for it to get warmer, waiting to take my licence test, waiting for semester to end, waiting for my grades...

The last few days it’s been freezing and raining non stop.
I’ve noticed that the weather has been having a big effect on how I feel throughout the day. It’s been cold and cloudy all week. The strange thing is, I used to love the cold. Cold days were my favourite days. I would wait ten months all year for the few days of rain we got in southern california.
But this year is...
Anonymous asked: I know this is your blog and you have all right to you opinons but I feel as though that post on DADT was ridiculous. No, sexual preferences shouldn't matter, you are there to work. Who cares is exactly right and its not a big deal. Its not that every gay who joins the military wants to declare their sexuality and hook up but if someone happened to find out, if it accidentally slips or if i...

I actually agree with DADT ok
I’m not even going to lie, or be sensitive to everyone here on tumblr. It’s my blog, my opinions. If you’re going to march straight to my inbox to complain, you’re just going to be ignored.
Personally, I agree with don’t ask don’t tell. I don’t see why you MUST be openly gay to serve in the military. When you’re in active duty, your job has absolutely nothing to do with sexual preference. So...

My head hurts. Only 9 more classes, 4 more hours and I don’t want to be here. My stomach has been feeling weird all day and I just want to go home and lie down. I don’t want to eat anything. I don’t want to do anything. I just want to sleep.
Two more days. Just tomorrow then we’re done. Done for the year.
My mind is blank. Maybe I should sleep for a while before 4th.

what does "happy" even mean?
Today I was talking with Tyler. But for some reason I was later repeating the word “happy” in my head over and over to the point where it lost its meaning and I didn’t even know what I was saying anymore. I thought “wtf does ‘happy’ even mean anyways?”. So, to keep this thought somewhere, I scribbled it down in my moleskine.
Of course, I LOVE overthinking...

@cypress (in detail this time)
Just got home from Cypress. We’re currently standing at either 3-1 or 2-2. Most likely we’re 2-2. My head hurts since this is my first time debating since July. Believe me, I’m so out of shape right now. I need to make it a new years resolution or something to work more on debate because I’m hella rusty.
Don’t get me wrong though, I missed it so much. Somewhere in...

journey of a thousand miles.
Today I went to a new therapist. She seems much better than the last one. Of course, my mother was fake to her and explained how “she’s tried so hard and i’m just so helpless that she doesn’t know what to do”. To be expected of course.
Either way I’m not sure if I feel better. I feel pretty much the same. My head hurts actually. She said I need to eat more, my...
Anonymous asked: I hope you feel better soon. You don't deserve to feel the way you do right now. You seem like a really great person and I hope this somehow makes you feel better knowing that people do read and care about the things you have to say and the way you feel. I hope you feel better soon.
