*Sigh* I feel dizzy. Not like, sick dizzy but like... a kind of love sick dizzy. I don't know how to explain it... *Sighs again* Sometimes I really love rainy days. I mean with the right music, the right mood, the cold... a good day at school, funny things said and done... Yeah.
Kinda cloudy... but the sort of cloudy where you can see the gorgeous blue behind it. Ah... <3
Someone just told me that I was wise... I dunno. Emily + wise just... doesn't fit. I think I know a lot, but not enough to be wise. I mean... usually someone my age can't spell or really type correctly, but so? I rped a little too much :P Aaanyway...
I love my Creative Writing class (L) I'm gonna try REALLY hard to get published.
Today's assignment was that we had to write a 100 word paragraph WITHOUT repeating ANY words, including "the" "and" etc. It wasn't too hard... maybe a gliche here and there... here's what I wrote:

Looking out to an eerie dock near the shore, thinking of mythological wonders, figuring strange expressions about sweet nightmares, this mind's eye writing ridiculous stories. Riddles in past tense haunt feelings within me. Mysteries concerning malicious monsters with rhythm abound mine neck, choking life away. Revulsion towards diminishing glances, none mercy given. Belittling speech, derogating opinions, disobeying Master's orders, praying forgiveness on thine knees, hoping release'll come save such sad souls. Forget shining sun, wish wings instead. Wait till faeries die before you fly, patience equals nine other virtues, seven wonderments underground; Earth. They are shocked whilst finding true truth.



Yeah. And that was without thesarus use @_@ Gawd I almost died.

Here's a poem that I had to write for my Creative Writing class. I'll add on once I find the time.
The assignment was write an EXACTLY 50 word autobiography... eh, not too good. Oh well. It adds up to fifty so I'm happy ^_^



Loser with a Twist


Born June 19th, 1989,
Warm summer, soft sunshine.

Recieving tenders and kinds,
Never saying "thank you" lines.

Then when adolescence came,
Emily realized she had to play life's game.

Smart she turned out,
Loser with twist and shout.

Having much to say,
Emily allows no one in her way.


The end.

At my school, I had third lunch which is at like 1 in the afternoon and that's when you're REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hungry... so anyway, I was in class one day, and there's a guy name De'Andre. Andre's cool, but the butt of every joke, almost.
So anyway, there's Brian, the jokester, then Morgan, the... well the Misc. dude.
Brian had brought a pair of handcuffs to school one day. So, being Brian, he got Morgan to crawl under the desks and handcuff De'Andre to the desk. But instead of that, he handcuffed his pants.
Now, De'Andre really likes lunch, and there's really nothing that can stop him from getting to lunch early.
So while the teacher is talking, De'Andre is trying to get the handcuffs off his pants *which are chained to the desk.*
Brian and everyone else are laughing their butts off.
Then, the bells rings and De'Andre is trying to tug the desk along to lunch, but Ms. Hayes stops him and calls the Janitor. So, maybe a minute passes, and De'Andre just can't take it.
So he takes his pants off and goes to lunch.

Sweet Release

Looking up to the cloudless blue sky made a little spot between her shoulder blades ache with the want of release.
She gazed dreamily out the library window; the perfect spot to see over the school grounds. She breathed in sharply while she felt her skin begin to open.
I have to stop doing that, she thought to herself as she looked nervously over at the other students, making sure they hadn't heard her groan in protest. But their minds were occupied with their books, thankfully.
She sighed, licking her dry lips. She had to get out, the ache in her back was beginning to get unbearable.
I can't... they have to be asleep... they can't know... can't find out....
Again she glanced onto the ground. No one was there; no one around. They were all studying and she knew it.
It wouldn't hurt, said a small voice in the back of her head.
No! Said another in protest. What if someone decides to take a break? Go outside for a stroll around the grounds? She knew that was the voice of her good conscience.
What does it matter? You'll be gone by then! Lost in the wind; the sky; all the gorgeous blue you've been dreaming about for weeks now.... She licked her lips again, thinking about that freedom she so yearns for.
But what about getting down without anyone noticing? What about your classes? You know how important they are!
Her stomach churned uncomfortably.
You won't come back till night, plus it's the weekend, you don't have any classes to begin with!
She knew that was true. What could go wrong? She stood abruptly, her heart beating wildly. She left her books behind her as she walked right out of the library to the main doors leading to the grounds.
The hallway to the large doors was covered in paintings of previous Headmasters. She'd been sent to the boarding school disgracefully when her parents discovered her awful secret. They were too proud, rich, and powerful to show off their daughter, who they took for a beast; a monster; a figment of imagination. She'd felt immense hatred towards them ever since they secluded her from their perfect lives.
She opened the heavy doors, rushing out, the wind catching her hair and holding her face softly. She glanced around for human flesh, but found none.
She gazed back up to the sky, breathing heavily. She felt the urge grow stronger, her tongue dry, her throat burning in anticipation.
Suddenly a wave of heat washed over her, then she became cool again, finding herself staggering forward onto the green, lush grass.
She was tugging at her shirt, the silky material burning her skin.
Her back felt on fire, just enough to almost blind her. The two scars between her shoulder blades opened and closed, her skin bubbling as if something was growing beneath her muscle. Her face was twisted in pain, her teeth grinding, and her back arched.
Her knees buckled as a bone pushed its way out of her flesh, through the opened scar on her back.
She kneeled on the grass, breathing in the scent of the earth, closing her eyes tightly as the bone structure to her wings finally burst from her back, making her scream and cry in painful agony.
Her breathing steadied as slowly, silently, and gently her muscle and skin crawled from her scars and covered the bones, attaching it all together. After, her wings looked like massive, lightly colored, leather bindings. Then a feather sprouted at the very tip of her wing, followed by many others until both were completely covered.
She got up and sat on her knees gasping and sweating from losing so much energy. She brought her wings around her, as if embracing herself, gently stroking the silky white feathers.
She took a deep breath and looked at the sky, still blue and crystal clear. On shaky legs she stood, balancing herself with the new weight added onto her backside.
She felt as though she'd forgotten how to fly, flapping her arms and trying to push from the ground with little work from her wings.
She closed her eyes and imagined flying again, she concentrated on flapping her wings, spreading her legs shoulder length apart and extending her arms out before her. She started breathing deep breaths, feeling her lungs and heart grow to help oxygen flow better, her bones become hollow for better flight, which made her entire body feel like a fluffy cloud.
The marrow from her bones drained and she felt her wings become stronger, the feathers not as fragile as before, thicker even.
Then, slowly, her wings gentle, not making a sound, she felt her feet lift from the ground. First her heels, then her toes. She opened her eyes and rose higher and higher, keeping her legs and arms as far away from her body as possible.
She felt drowsy and happy, drunk on it almost. She flew high above, making sure not to be seen. She flew faster and flapped her wings harder, her arms coming to her side so that she could dive down and pop back up when she felt.
She tasted that sweet taste of freedom on her tongue, the scent of choice sitting on her shoulders. She felt invincible, like she could do anything.
Her wings started beating and her breathing was deep and hollow, she smiled as she soared through the air, touching clouds as she came by them. Her cheeks were touched with a splash of pink and her nose was turning red from the cold, thrilling air.
She flew above buildings until the sun began to sink; she saw people turning the lights in their homes on and off, the T.V.'s glaring their cerulean glow; kids roaming the streets, looking for trouble.
By the time she began to feel her wings slow down and her body fall, she was almost back onto the grounds. Lights were on in some student's rooms, probably the ones staying up to party, or the ones staying up to bury their noses into their books.
Carefully she lowered herself to the ground, gasping out and falling to her knees again. She was exhausted, yet exceptionally happy. No one had seen her, no one knew her secret.
She sighed heavily as her bones thickened and filled with marrow, her lungs shrunk along with her heart.
She looked behind her at her wings and stroked them lovingly, letting them embrace her once more, before the feathers began to fall off one by one. Her eyes swelled with tears as she looked at the ground, feeling her body quiver as her skin began to unfold itself from the bone, and the bone flapping one more time as if protesting before being sucked back quickly into the scars on her back, which closed with a burning sensation.
She collapsed on the ground in a pile of feathers in which she hugged.
A smile was printed on her lips as she felt herself drift off into a deep sleep, the dreams of flying coming to her once more.
Sweet release, sweeter every time.

Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up; these are the best days of our lives... Me loves The Ataris ^_^
Geena, a friend I've had since I was a toddler, has moved ;-;
But it's not like that!! She, my sister, and I all met at these one apartnments called Whispering Pines. Dumpy, trashy ones left over from the 70's ^_^ Just recently they were remodled (they look really nice now).
Anyway, Geena, as a 3 year old, walked to our door, knocked, and asked if Katie and I could play. That's when our friendship started.
Geena grewq up to be Miss Diva, who knew everything about hair, makeup, manicures, you name it. She pulled good grades until seventh grade, when it was required that you read well and she hated reading... but that all turned around later on ^_^
So anyway, just recently she moved back into those apartments. It just strung some memories of mine...
We learned how to swim in the pool there, we always rode our bikes around, we learned how to roller skate with those babrie roller skates that came out... we always had a lot of fun, staying outside, being active, healthy children. I had a great childhood, it was all about having fun and playing games. Nothing very academic (wasn't too smart back then hahaha).
Even through all the quirks we've been through, the fights, the hatred, we're all still buddies. I may not be Geena's best friend, and she may not be mine, but we've had such history together that without each other things would really seem empty. I don't get to see Geena a lot and I may not agree with her most the time but she's just the kind of girl who carries a part on her back and a fun bag on her head ^_^ it's really easy to get along with her most the time (though everyone has their moments of arrogance and control). She's always ready to party and you never know what kind of ideas she'll string up O_o She's really exciting ^_^
I'm going to her house today, her new apartment, to have a barbecue with her mom and herself (no men in the picture; Donna, Gee's mom, was just recently divorced... finally -_-). I can't wait - squee! -
I'll get to go swimmin in the pool I almost died in again! Yey! ^_^

A Dream Come And Gone or A Dream Undone (look at poll)



On an island, in a house, in a room, in a chair sat a young man in front of a computer. The cerulean glow emitted onto his face. He looked stressed, remorseful, and beat.
A little da-ling! came from the computer. It was MSN Messenger; someone had signed in. He read the name and smiled, clicking and starting a conversation with the person.
That person was a girl he'd met awhile back. He'd known her for awhile and they'd become good friends over the few years they'd known each other. He always found it a treat to speak with her.
About an hour or two passed when she had to leave. When she signed off he frowned and got up to go find something to amuse himself for the next few hours.
He'd felt strong feelings for her. She wasn't just someone over the Internet, she was special to him, and even though he'd never met her face to face he felt that once-in-a-lifetime feeling for her.
Love.
He sat at a chess board and played against himself. The house was silent since his sisters, mother, father, and brothers went out on their own little vacation leaving him behind. He was glad though. The house was usually noisy and a wreck and he felt the need to just get away most of the time. Without his whole family there it was peaceful and calming. He just felt a familiar pinch of lonliness in his heart.
But he always felt that, family or no family. Except when he talked to her. It was strange how he felt, since he'd never felt that way about anyone though he'd been living for nineteen years.
He became bored and returned back online just to see if she was there. But she wasn't, so he left and went to bed. It was late anyway.
She knew how he felt about her. There were mutual feelings between them. The only thing that ruined their feelings was the distance. She didn't live too far away, in fact not far at all. But he lived in a deserted place and she in a busy city.
She raced through his mind as he laid down to sleep, closing his eyes, and getting comfortable. He imagined running his fingers through her hair, stroking her cheek, and whispering little sweet nothings into her ear. He thought about sunny days they would have together, the rainy days, and picturing her beautiful face in any kind of weather. He felt that lonliness in his heart grow more as he ached to have her near him, even just to be able to touch her hand for a moment would set his heart on fire for life.
Before he fell asleep he thought about how much he loved her and the studying he would do to get a good job to make her as happy as possible. He thought about the day when he would meet her, hold her close, and cuddle with her. He thought about the day he would ask her to marry him, and the day they would have their first child.
He just couldn't get her out of his mind, even as he slept he dreamt about her. She was always there, no matter what.

The next day he logged on when he was supposed to, to meet up with her, but she wasn't on. No matter what time he got onto MSN Messenger she was never there. The pattern went on for almost four days.
On the fourth day he sat with loose pants and a baggy t-shirt on, lounging in the living room. His dark skin was beaded with perspiration, since it was such a hot day.
The doorbell rang as he was dozing and he argued with himself whether or not to get it, but his good side won so he lolled up and slowly walked to the door.
The person knocked, not impatiently but as if reminding him that they weren't going to leave till they got what they wanted.
"Probably Raxson again," he said to himself silently. He stepped up to the door and opened it.
A young woman, probably no more than sixteen, stood in the doorway. Her back was to him. She had light skin and carried a bag, wearing a yellow sundress and a broad-rimmed hat. Her hair was tied back and luxuriously brought out the wonderful features in her face as she turned around. She grinned at him as he stood dumbfounded.
"You seem surprised," she said in a winsome voice. She was just as beautiful in real life than in the pictures.
"Darren, it's me... remember? Aline?"
He shook his head and rubbed his eyes.
"But... Yeah I remember... You're..." he was flabbergasted.
She smiled and dropped her bag, approaching him and throwing her arms around him, hugging him close. He couldn't believe it. She was here.

Later he took her out to dinner and got to know her face to face. He couldn't believe her, she was just perfect. She was drop-dead gorgeous, immensely intelligent, and the sweetest person he'd ever met. She was so natural too, she didn't even bother with makeup.
No matter how much she told him it was like they had been together all their lives.

When he took her back to his home, he moved her one simple bag to his room.
"You can have my room since I'm sure you wouldn't want to sleep in my sibling's rooms," Darren said unsure of himself. "Sorry that it's such a mess. I'm a guy, you know?"
Aline chuckled and nodded, then looked around. "Where are you going to sleep?" She asked.
Darren looked around, "Um... I guess I'll sleep on the couch." He shrugged and smiled shyly.
Aline grinned and punched his arm gently. "No... you can sleep in here. I know you want to sleep with me."
Darren blushed at the awkwardness of her sentence.
Aline approched him and wrapped her arms around him, gently kissing his lips. "Darren, I came here mainly to say I love you." She pressed her nose against his and nuzzled his neck softly. He embraced her, burying his face into her soft hair.
"I love you too. I love you with my everything, Aline..."

In the middle of the night, Darren lay awake in his bed, his arm wrapped around Aline. He looked at her sleeping so peacefully, her hair tossled as she slept lightly. He moved his arm and she stirred. His hand touched her skin, just to make sure it was real but it was cold. The air conditioner was blowing right onto her and she was only under a pile of thin sheets.
She's just not used to being here... He thought. She stirred again and opened her eyes tiredly. Her lips were pouty when she slept and that made her even more adorable. She was three years younger than he, but so much more wiser. She looked young yet old at the same time. You knew she was wise just by her looks.
She plopped down next to him and his warm skin, her arm drabbing across his chest as if she were going to hug him. She didn't feel warm enough so she laid her head on his belly, nuzzling and getting comfortable again. Darren pulled the covers over her and rubbed her neck, nestling back in and drifting off.
She's really mine... She's here... My dream is coming true...
He fell asleep and dreamed of their day tomorrow, all of the stuff they would do, showing her everything he wanted to show her. Even with her there she still haunted his dreams, but now he could touch her and kiss her.

"Darren..." Aline whispered. "I'm going upstairs to take a shower." He moaned. She leaned down and kissed his lips, cheeks, and forehead, then his lips again.
Darren woke up about twenty minutes later, waiting for her to get out of the shower.
An hour passed.
He got worried and wondered why she was taking so long. He knew she wasn't the type of girl to take all day in a shower.
Slowly he went upstairs, pushing the bathroom door open a crack. The shower was still running and a bowl of steam came out of the room.
"Aline, is everything alright?"
No reply.
"Aline?" He pushed the door wider and approached the shower. "Aline?" His voice was a little louder. He pulled back the curtain and faced an empty shower.
He turned the shower off and looked around the bathroom. Not even her clothes were there.
"Aline!" He exclaimed through the house. He went back to his room and saw that her bag was gone.
He searched the house and called the taxi services, wondering if any of the drivers picked up a beautiful young woman at that address, but no one had.
He wondered, and found himself in the kitchen looking at a note written by her.
He read aloud, "'Dearest Darren, I love you always. One day your dreams will come true and not leave you. I promise to make you happy, but I had to give you a taste. One which I wasn't allowed to give for purposes I cannot express in this letter. I had to keep you safe, which has probably ruined the future. But I don't care, as long as we're together. Please always trust in me, and always love me. I'll speak to you on the Internet as usual. Love you always, Your Guardian Angel.'"
He sighed and whispered, "A dream undone is what it was. But... my heart is still on fire..."

__Never Be Nice
Nice.
Nice.
Nice.
Everybody's nice,
Split your head twice,
Beat them in the rib,
Wait until it bleeds,
Watch the colors run,
Land call it fun,
Cry for all the pain,
No one's really sane!
-[victoria]
Just thought it was cool O_o

Kinf od down... O_o Er, kind of down.
Been so bored, I went to bed at like 5 last night and woke up at 3, so I got on the computer. It was boring. Went back to bed at 8 and then got back up at 10 and cleaned up after my sister (who's lazy, messy, and can't do a darn thing). She left a mess in the bathroom. Then I cleaned up the kitchen for Mom (she's really stressed out), just to help out. Cleaned the living room a bit, threw some of Katie's stuff away... And here I am.
But on a happy note!
Ever wonder what it would be like to be a super hero? Or Heroine?
Like, what kind of powers would you have?!?! Flying is a big one. Or like a magical motorcycle! Reading minds, super punches... or like the power to make everyone peaceful! That's new. I mean heroes all seem to have violent "powers" these days... Beating up the "bad guys" just makes them as bad as the bad guys.
Where would you live? Big city or little town?
What kind of costume would you have?
Would you make friends? Would you always get the guy? Or girl?
Would you have a secret identity like Superman or always be a superhero like Barnicle Boy and that... other guy in Spongebob?
Would it be cool or would it just cause you to lage in your homework assignments ^_~?
... ^^

I f*cking hate my sister.
She is a f*cking moron without a f*cking life.
She always tries to prove me wrong about computers by saying "Oh no, that's not possible. My friends all say so."
"Are your friends hackers and people who grew up in Trinidad?"
"Well, not in Trinidad!"
THEN, we buy the F*CKING CD TO WINDOWS XP AND SHE LEAVES IN F*CKING NINE STATES AWAY IN OKLAHOMA AT MY DAD'S HOUSE WHO IS NEVER THERE AND CAN'T SEND IT TO US BECAUSE SHE'S SUCH A FREAKING MORON AND DOESN'T KNOW WHAT A F*CKING COMPUTER OS IS, THINKING THAT I COULD FORMAT THE HARDRIVE AND DOWNLOAD IT (which I won't, I know something would go wrong), THEN, SAYING SHE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT A F*CKING OS IS!!!!!!!
F*CKING MORON I AM SO GOING TO KILL HER NO MATTER WHAT!! I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE THOUGHT THAT! I JUST WANT TO STRANGLE HER!!! I SAID SPECIFICALLY, "BRING THE WINDOWS XP CD, DON'T LEAVE IT HERE, WE NEED IT WITH US!!"
I AM GOING TO F*CKING BLOW UP AND DRAG HER TO HELL!!! >.<

HEY HEY HEY ALL YA'LL PEOPLE!!!!
I AM BACK, W00T W00T!
I was gone for a week because I was going from my dad's house in Oklahoma... to my mom's house in Washington State! YAY!
-_-
K, 'nuff with that bullsheetness. Anyway, this computer is Windows Millenium and O_o it looks really different and the keyboard is especially loud and obnoxious but easy to type on. My dog is being an annoying little hissy fit. He grew over the last two months. He used to be cute with his oversized head and ears, but now he ain't at all. It all grew together dangit!
I want Windows XP back ;-; which I shall have, MOOHAHAHAHAHA!! So I better start saving all my files N' crap 'cause I lost everything in the last upgrade -_-;
So bored... I'm cleaning my room and my... closet or a.k.a dungeon. That closet is a SERIOUS MESS HOLE! OMGOMGOMGOM. I was like soooo done with cleaning part of the room but then I thought "Oh hell, why not?"
Yeah, I clean my closet sometimes but it's never really... thorough cleaning. I dug deep this time man, dug deep.
There were literally clothes up to my knees (and like four hanging up). I got glass dolls in there, and I had TONS of my mom's shoes for some strange off-beat reason. And not to mention shoe boxes, my GOD I don't even OWN that many shoes!
But then when I reached the bottom I discovered the reason why I have so many shoe boxes. That stupid, forgotten, stenchy memory that just HAPPENS to get thrown into your brain's recycle bin, DAMMIT!
Let's just say it has to do with past animals, dirt, and... funerals.
I want MSN messenger 6.0. Now. But I am WAY too lazy to download it >.< Feh me. I'm just gonna wait till the upgrade to ... WINDOWS... XP...!!! YAYAYYAYAY! I hope it'll work >.> <.<
Dammit -_-
I... OH GOD I HAVE TO CLEAN @_@ I got clthes spilling out of me room and you can hardly walk... the dungeon is the only thing clean! AHHHHHH!
