...that the past is just a story, it has no power over you.
I read this quote online at a site I like to browse: Wittyprofiles.com
Anyways, it really just hit me. This quote is true. Maybe not for you, but for me, it does. I was sitting here being a bit sad about life. I'm not really sure why but it made me think. I'm a writer. And how to I deal with my emotions? I write about them. So, why not write about the things/people that really hurt me? Why not let it all out there and let the pieces fall where they may? It may be hard and excruciatingly painful for me...but that's what I'm going to do! I'm going to just write and not stop until I'm finished. It's most likely going to be a disorganized mess, but hey! maybe it'll work out! So wish me luck I have a lot of typing to do.

Dear parents who don’t agree with their child’s opinion,
Get over it.
Seriously. It’s either deal with it or you will wind up losing your kid forever. Forcing someone to have either your own opinion or no opinion at all doesn’t end well. The reason I’m bringing up this issue is because I have a step-father who hates almost everything I stand for. He will never say it out loud without being forced to but he’s doesn’t agree with equality. That’s the nicest way of saying it. I just decided to group everything under a broad category.
We were in the car driving to Virginia today and my mom had accidentally hit the CD button on the car radio. Michael Buble happened to be in. And he started to complain and whine like he’s 5 years old.
You’re 61 years old…really?
Anyways and he keeps complaining saying this music is crap. My mom and I tell him that he needs to deal with it and then him and I engage in a rather….loud ‘discussion’. He says I have no right to say anything and that my opinion doesn’t matter.
Before I continue let me give a tiny piece of history. I don’t tell my parents a lot because they always put down everything I do. I have told my mom about this. There’s always been an issue with them never listening to me and my opinions. Now back to the story….
I turn to my mom and tell her “I told you so” because well…I did. Now to me ranting about this-à
(This is what I was saying in my head)
Would he rather me listen to music that was all about drugs and sex? Since when was his opinion the only one that matters? Who made him king? I don’t give a crap that you’re the oldest one in the car, there’s something called respect. I don’t agree with many things you say, however, you don’t see me throwing a fit like I’m 5 years old. I just don’t understand.
Now to apply my thinking on the world…
What gives people the right to silence others? Why should a person feel oppressed if he thinks something different. If you look at the world’s history, it’s the ones who do think differently who make the biggest difference. They’re the people we write about and inspire us.
So tell me. In a today’s world….why is it that we think ourselves so advanced and revolutionary when there are still people who are silenced. Everyday there’s someone who is forced to keep their opinions in their heads and walk around a mundane society that thinks they are superior.
That’s another thing about this world that bothers me. If you compare the United States culture to…say…a European culture what do I see? That the United States is lacking. Sure, we have democracy (which I’m not saying is a bad thing) and a sense of freedom. But are we really better? Or equally cultured? Not really. Do we respect the others that surround us? No. Does majority of the population care about our history? No, they don’t. It’s a sad but true fact. Even if we don’t know We seem to forget all the sacrifices our troops, or influential members of our country has given. It wasn’t easy. Our citizens in this time have forgotten that the things that matter, that mean something, aren’t easy to achieve. When will people remember the good things in life? The things that matter.

CollegeACB: It's On!
Sometimes I just have to wonder...why. Why people are so mean? What really makes us say the things we do and act certain ways. I recently came across a site called collegeacb.com
.....just wow....are people so self-centered and malicious that they use the anonymity of this site to embarrass and torment others. Well I'm answering back. I'm answering back for all those COWARDS who think its sooo much fun to talk shit and those who HIDE behind a facade. It's wrong. It's wrong to post personal information about someone without their consent. It's wrong to think that you can talk about someone and not give them the chance to fight back. It's WEAK and PATHETIC. I would bet my life that those inhumane people who wrote what they did couldn't stand in front of that person they gossiped about and tell them the truth.
So I'm calling all of you out. Tell everyone who you are. What are you so scared of? What makes it okay? What would happen if someone you trusted posted things about you? How do you think it feels to have all your secrets exposed...everything. How would you feel if people looked at you and laughed. How would you feel if you couldn't trust anyone, couldn't talk to anyone. What if you had nothing? I know how it feels to be broken and made fun of and feel like nothing will go right. Nothing can save you. All you feel is sadness. There is no out. I know.
And now I'm talking to all those beautiful people who were attacked. Because yes, it was an attack. You are strong. It's okay to be different and somewhat crazy. I don't care. It tends to make life more interesting. So speak up for yourselves. Hell even if its yelling out loud to yourself!! DO IT! You are all special and no one can take that away. So what if you don't fit into any cookie cutter mold. I would consider it an accomplishment if you didn't. Who the hell cares if you don't have the right clothes, right hairstyle, the right friends. Who gets to say whats "right" and "wrong"? Do whatever YOU want to do. It'll make you so much happier.
And I guess I'll conclude by saying: Be honest to others and yourself. You're the one who has to live with your choices everyday. Are you happy when you look in the mirror?

The Truth.
"We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others, that in the end, we become disguised to ourselves." (François de la Rochefoucauld)
Do you ever feel left out? As if you're that person that no one likes? They pretend and act like you matter when in reality you don't. I've been having these thoughts a lot recently. Sometimes you have to wonder....do people actually care about you? I mean I have my really close friends who I've known for almost my whole life and then there are people I've met recently who I know actually care....But then there are those who i've done so many things for and been there through everything and yet Im treated like shit. What is it with people? I have to wonder if they even realize what they're doing. The worst case scenario would be that they do and they still use me. I'm not some pawn in a game nor am i a back up friend. Why can't you just tell me the truth. You know me long enough to know that I hate lies and I've been through enough to be able to handle disappointment.
So I need to ask: What happened to the truth? What makes people now a days lie? Why do we have this need to have everyone like us and be annoyed constantly by this person/people? Why can't we for ONCE be honest with others and stop holding things in? It really doesn't go well in the end anyways. I just don't understand. What makes us be so repressed?
As you can tell...I'm confused annoyed and pissed off....Anyways I hope everyone's weekends went well and hope your week goes well!

Let me tell you.....
So. I pretty much was kicked out of a class under a false accusation...and it was my favorite class. =[ Today hasn't been the best days. However due to some great friends, they have helped me feel happier with dinner out and a trip to B&N. One of the places I wouldn't mind living in.
I hate to say this but I just have no faith in myself right now...not even that I just feel like I'm moving towards a pointless goal. When I graduate what will my diploma say? That I know how to read, write, and analyze. If you can't read and write at my age...the education system has failed. Why is it that we are in a country where people can get famous off of youtube and yet majority of the people can't follow their dreams? What ever happened to "Carpe Diem" and seizing the day? I want to travel, learn about different cultures and write about it. I want to be able to say, "Hey! I've been there and seen what it's like." No wonder society is so messed up. We are forced into a cookie-cutter mold that makes kids today think "What's the point?" Why should they even bother if teachers/parents/guardians are telling them that they have to do something sensible. So what if I may live poor for the rest of my life. I've already come to terms with that. I'm in college. It costs a lot of money! I would rather drop out, travel, explore, and learn through experience and be happy but poor. Rather than be in a drab, slate gray, cubicle doing mediocre work and be miserable. SO WHAT about stability and healthy financial status! I don't care. Money means nothing to me! It may help me further my hobbies and momentary happiness but when I look at the world and see the people who have shaped literature, I don't see those who sat down and did nothing. They went for it! Why?? Why do I have to sit in so many hours of class each day? Just to prove that I can momentarily memorize data and facts so the school looks better? So I can sell myself to people for something I most likely don't want to do? I would be happy working in a book store the rest of my life, it's something I'd love to do.
........I think I'm done with my rant for now...anyways here's a quote that I deem appropriate for my day.
“There's no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.” --Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Stupid B****es
Why? Why did I have to be put in the hallway with the stupid bitches? They don't know the definition of personal space or personal hygiene. For those who don't know me I live in a hall with field hockey girls.....just ugh. They are obnoxious skanky drunks who don't know the meaning of closing the stall door when going to the bathroom. They...s**t in the showers and leave plenty of hair in the drains and sinks. I just can't handle them...I'm like seriously? Also they love to slam the doors at 3 in the morning. Rude. Also I need to question a post I read once on Tumblr about....I'm sorry to use such an offensive term....Twilight. (I know I shudder at even thinking about it). It was a comparison of T******t and Harry Potter. Now idk if it was a joke or serious but it said that Twilight came first and a bunch of other stupid comments....I'm praying it's a joke. If not society is going to s**t.
I feel this quote is appropriate for my post: “Harry Potter is all about confronting fears, finding inner strength and doing what is right in the face of adversity… Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend.”
Now...I'm not saying the whole vampire world + love is a horrible idea. Wrong! I have found series that I like and I'm going to tell you some.
Vampire Academy--> love the action and the main character Rose, unlike T******t, actually has a personality and wit to her. It has a dark tone in it at times. And not a depression thats drawn out, but a burst here and there.
House of Night series--> this is one of my favorites. Although I'm 2 books behind. The most recent book I read was filled with dark tones and depth. But it also has some love triangles and plenty of deception. P.C. Cast definitely is a genius in creating the settings and scenarios. (I also recommend her other books)
Anyways I'll finish my advertising and move on. But I must recommend going on Tumblr and searching T******t Sucks and the results are quite entertaining. Ta-ta for now!!

What happens when HP invades your life???
Quick side note: My friends and I are planning to cosplay The Marauders so I will use their nicknames in order to hide they're true awesomeness. Also they call me Lily Evans so don't be confused.
So Remus texted me today asking if I was secretly on his campus. He saw a girl with red hair and her hoodie had the name Evans on the back. My response? Oh I'm doing a secret project for Slughorn. Our lives are magical. Also he told me there were a pair of boots sitting in his hallway and he was afraid to touch them in fear they were a port key.
So today I had a somewhat alright day...didn't end well. However I have destressed though watching White Collar. Which was extra epic because Matt Bomer was half naked. ;)
Also I looked up some spoilers for Glee...going to have some awesome episodes coming up. I love love love love (x1000) Darren Criss. Here's the article I read: http://www.spoilersguide.com/glee/more-songs-more-couplings-what-are-gleeks-for/
Now...I should probably write something insightful...but I'm going to be honest and say I don't have much brain power left today. SO I shall leave you with an awesome quote that gets me thinking.
"Tomorrow, you promise yourself, will be different, yet, tomorrow is too often a repetition of today." James T. Mccay
