5 Seconds Ago, Time Stopped

You know how you feel when you realize you were wrong about something? Let's say you were convinced that "inquiries" was pronounced a certain way when really, it was pronounced completely different. You feel stupid, ignorant, unimportant, and just wrong, right?

Similarly, I feel that way. According to what life teaches us, we've gone through the motions, not really realizing that the things you've been doing were not necessarily wrong just...silly. Useless. Not you.

I feel like an ice cube tray. I was poured into a mold and just when I thought I was comfy, someone bent the tray and I cracked; I broke away from my home and suddenly, I was being shaken into a glass of grape Koolaid. Its weird but it better mean something like maybe I'm going toward that part of my life where I'll overcome innocence?

Whatever...my brain hurts.

Have you ever wondered what my soul looks like?



Its not exact but I can imagine it looks a lot like this.

Being on my school's newspaper staff, I'm a bit worried about a certain best friend who's been placed in charge - as opposed to the usual chief editor. Its bad putting someone else in charge when we're going to press in the next week or so *cough HACK*.

But then again, no one ever listens to Jacks, right?

By the way, to anyone who's interested, I'll be posting up the general synopsis of a series I'll be writing someday soon. It'll probably sound a lot like Fight Club being that the books will be called The Hit Club but I'm thinking I'll have to change that...anyway, its not fully developed nor is it all that original. Just a plot, characters, and what have you. Hopefully, it'll also sound a bit like this other series I've gotten into.



I'm pretty sure anyone of you devoted fans have seen me around the halls, tripping over people because I was walking while reading. [Note to self: don't walk around a crowded hallway with a book in front of your face.]

But basically, the books are centered around a group of kids - what my books will sorta be like. I came up with it forever and a day ago but just now realized the potential. Old stuff is awesome, no? :]

Anyway, school's in session and apparently you have to pay attention (I did not know this!) so, gotta run!

XOXO

Was That a Spark of Excitement in Your Eye?

Now, I know you've been looking forward to a blog like this all your life. I'm sure not too long ago, you were wistfully browsing the interweb when-...you couldn't find a single interesting thing, right?

Well, kids. I think you've just stumbled upon a magnificient discovery!

Okay, maybe not but heck, this is close enough.

Let's see, especially for your viewing pleasure I'll give ya a heads up on what's to come:

1. News [it'll probably be boring and not at all interesting but c'mon, i'm sure someone out there is interested...*cough* like my stalker *cough*]

2. Music [new stuff you might enjoy, upcoming concerts...stuff like that. I'm hoping that'll be my biggest hit because apparently, I've got taste (thanks, Erin!) so I'll give you guys some opinions]

3. Movies [if you haven't heard it from millions of magazines and the E! network already, well here's my smart-alecky take on everything from new hits to...celebrity news, I guess?]

4. Art [and when I say "art" I actually mean poems, stories (fully developed or no), strange twists on popular philsophies, photos...whatever. All here]

So, how does it sound? Good? Bad? Pointless? What's another blog in the stream of other blog-fish? I'd like to say mine will be more worthwhile

:]

Hugs and kisses (believe me when I say I'll come up with some clever ending to these things),

P.S It'd also be pretty sweet if this thing became more worldwide and people started asking for advice on world issues, boys, parents...whatever. I'd like to say that I've got experience (siblings + church + God = caring and slightly sympathetic advice) so drop a line or two and I'll try and give you SOMETHING.
