i like this paragraph. that's about it, sadly.
Alone, I sipped my hot chocolate as I walked down the streets, tugging my coat tighter around me when the wind shifted directions, and completely forgetting about Devorah and Dixon, Mary Jane and detention.  I thought only of James and the way he perceived me, a way that was different than anyone else.  I was a pushover.  Mary Jane saw it and abused it, Devorah knew it, my mother called me her...

hi;
college scares me.  in five months, i’ll be eighteen.  and i’m scared.  in seven months, i’ll have graduated from high school.  a few weeks after graduation, i’ll go see Eclipse with my friends, and then have the rest of the summer to spend in waiting, anxiety, wondering, and anticipation.  in three months, i’ll have heard from the University of Florida on whether or...

ANOTHER THING!
did anybody else see the person wearing a tide detergent box on their head at the iron bowl?  it took me a minute to realize it, but on either side of the box this person taped rolls of toilet paper.  so it was toilet paper roll, tide box, toilet paper roll. roll, tide, roll! i want to meet this person and become their best friend, so UA just moved farther up my list of colleges i want to attend...

my "i'm thankful for" post.
it wasn’t so complete, mainly because my dad’s annoying and childish.  i’m still thankful for him, don’t get me wrong, but i’m thankful for many other things as well.  i’m thankful for old people, because of all the amazing things they’ve taught me and shown me throughout the years.  i’m thankful for the concept of thanksgiving - the harvest -...

this was kind of good...
 Everyday I woke up.  I woke up because I slept deeply and soundly every night since high school started and was never overly tired in the mornings.  Also, I was very much the opposite of depressed and actually wanted to further my life in the mornings, continue it, make it better and more worth living; and although sleep came easily to me, I considered it more of a burden, a luxury that could be...

“Just be careful!” Holly echoed her earlier words with newfound gusto.  There were no railings on this staircase, just a wall to the right and a fall to the basement floor on the left.  She thought about telling her brother to stay to the right, but she decided that, if he did fall, maybe he’d shut up for a while; Toby was humming the Scooby Doo Where Are You? theme song annoyingly off pitch.  But...

senior year so far.
it’s been great.  it’s cheesy, but i feel like i’ve found myself.  i’ve never been so comfortable in my own skin, around all different types of people, and i’ve never been so confident academically.  i know this system - the only surprise is calculus, but i feel like i can handle it.  thanksgiving break couldn’t have come at a better time, and i’m just...

“as if you could outrun him!” oh, gash.  last night was super fun.  i waited in a ridiculous line, got two hours of sleep, probably caught my cold back, and made macaroni and cheese this morning.  GREAT!  “hey, edward - where’d ya go?” so. fun. we sat in the front row, where the angle you have to tilt your neck at makes everyone look swollen, especially taylor...

I managed to go somewhat unnoticed throughout the hour.  Since I wasn’t late, I slipped into a seat in the back, answered when my name was called, and was greeted kindly by the teacher.  I smiled, but stopped when I saw her—the blonde girl.  Her head was twisted back toward me, a strange, unidentifiable expression infiltrating her pretty features.  I cursed myself for not catching her name when...

yesterday, i changed the password on my laptop to “alohomora”, typing in the password hint: Think really hard.  You need to “unlock” my computer.  then, i sat around a while and watched my dad have a cow trying to figure out the password.  my brother walks up, and my dad’s all, “please help!” i gave them three verbal hints: “No caps or numbers, nine...

333 ways to get kicked out of Wal-Mart.
my personal favorite? 214. Scream, “Look! Someone’s stealing an old lady’s purse!” and when they look away, take all the stuff in their cart and throw it around the store shouting “I’m a terrorist!”

Suddenly, I was cold and empty.  I thought I was finally going to cry as Cal let go of me, and halfway sat on his parked car.  We were in the garage.  The door was shut.  The door was locked.  The dim light was flickering.  I was holding a tennis ball in my throat.  He was running his tongue along the inside of his bottom lip, causing the ring in it to quiver.  He closed his eyes and frowned...
