I have a crush on Peter Pan.

I may be eighteen now, but I will never grow up.


Beautiful roses from my parents. I am 18 as of yesterday.

December: Art Walk

Beautiful day for selling jewelry and glass bead menageries. Freezing though. Zaq looks aggravatingly stylish while I shiver in my blanket cocoon. Luckily, Torchy's Tacos have the power to annihilate any trace of frigidness.







December: SNOW DAY

Let it be known that it snowed in Texas. (Even if it was only for an hour and there was no accumulation, it does not change this fact.) Inner child released by presence of snowflakes.


WHITE DOTS!!!!!!!

December: College Visit

Went to the SouthNorth Pole. I mean Rice University. Stayed in a very strange hotel.



November: Thanksgiving

Grateful for my family and all that we have. Never take anyone or anything for granted.


Mmmmm Thanksgiving Dog.


My brother made some fancy galantine.


...And tamales. He gave them to employees in the E.R.


Lemons we grew.


Pear we ...bought.



November: Mom's Birthday

Happy Birthday Mom! The whole family got up early and went on a walk in a beautiful park nearby.


Look at that fancy cake. :)

You will be missed.

These last few days have been really tough. On Friday, November 20th, we had to put our sweet Rhodesian Ridgeback, Honey, to sleep. Her health has been deteriorating for many months on the day before she couldn't stand up at all. Her back legs stopped working altogether, she dragged herself out of the garage and broke her front foot in the process. It was terribly sad. I cried for hours. She was 14, one year younger than my brother. Usually Rhodesians live to be about 9, but Honey just had a zest for life --especially food-- and was incredibly stubborn. She was a big fat chicken, but a great dog. I have so many fond memories of her. At least she doesn't have to suffer any more. Rest in peace, Honey.




We'll always love you.

Still feeling sad. We had to put our dog, Honey, to sleep today. She was 14 years old, and just the sweetest thing. I'm really going to miss her. All my friends were really supportive though and I'm feeling better now. So currently I'm just reminiscing, listening to Tokio Hotel, and eating Warheads (burnilicious.)

No.

...But I don't want you to suffer anymore.

Goodbye, Honey.

Living

I will never come to terms with living, ever.

I think I should become a psychologist so that I can delve deeper into all the complications of the mind and humanity, but I think that doing so and attempting to comprehend would make me insane. Are people inherently good? Can they change? Is it better to be happy sometimes, all the time, or not at all? Would living in pure happiness take away from your humanity by making you ignorant to sorrow, a whole other component of humanity? What aspirations do we have that make us trudge onward through life? Why is it so difficult to be human? I guess it all boils down to the timeless question, "What is the meaning of life?" Yeah, I'm definitely going to become psycho psychologist.

Right now I want to spit some bullshit non-poetry and staple it on the face of the world. Give me a redbull vicodin cocktail or give me a more exciting way to die. That doesn't even make sense. But I typed it so it's going to stay there because that's the way I'm feeling at the moment.
Love, etc.

Edit: created poetman (bullshit non-poetry) category.

Raw Fish

I went to a sushi restaurant with my family down town. I have been dragged into a million sushi joints, and have never had the slightest urge to try it. Frankly, it disgusts me. I'm the pickiest person on the planet anyway. But for some reason... I was feeling particularly crazy and alive and decided to give it a try.

I selected something that sounded simple and classic... Spicy tuna roll. I waited for the opportune moment, right at the end of the order, to make my request. I got strange looks from the rest of the table. "You're really going to try some?" Disbelief.

When it arrived, it was covered in some orange garnish. Fish eggs. "No no no, it's finely ground carrots!" Nice try, pops. "I don't think carrots can be this round." The notion of eating fish eggs really put a damper on my appetite. But I knocked "the carrots" off with my chopsticks, swirled my selected piece of sushi around in wasabi and soy sauce, took a deep breath, and ate it.

My entire family almost died of simultaneous heart failure.

I almost died of suffocation, vomit, mental trauma, and embarrassment.

A glass of water, half my brother's Dr. Pepper, and eight minutes later, I could finally speak enough to retell my horrific ordeal.

HOW DO PEOPLE EAT THAT STUFF? I was sort of congested, and could barely taste it, ...but the TEXTURE! I gagged twice and had to put my hand over my mouth. The waiter came over, presumably to see if I was okay, but I couldn't look up (if I could, I don't know if I would have waved him away or motioned for the Heimlich maneuver) and my family told him everything was fine. All I could think was, "chew...! chew! CHEW!!!" Despite all the complete stares of disbelief and highfives I received, it will be awhile before I do that again.

Sushi lovers, you have my respect... But you're insane.



Most appropriate restaurant name ever. They do have great chicken spring rolls, though.

Epicosity

A very strange [formerly] mysterious thing at my school. "Epicosity" appears everywhere.


I stole some of those signs. /klepto
