Edit 2: I'm sorry I'm getting really lazy about these journal entries . I'm worried I'll mess up the form.
Just wanted to let you guys know - If you live above someone and have an overflowing toilet - you have the obligation to tell the people who live right under you. Don't think otherwise because they'll appreciate you!
Edit: Hi, guys!! First and foremost, I'd like to promote Little-Red-Ghost's "Reach Out" project! She wants to help out those people who have been really down lately and need a hand. If you could take the time to read over the article and see if you're interested, that'd be awesome! ***LINK UPDATED***
Little Update on Me: This week has been super busy for me. Let's just say on Tuesday, I was running around on 3 hours of sleep trying to finish projects and stuff only to find out one class was canceled and the other project postponed! Anyways, my pokewalker before I went to bed said I took 21,976 steps (the standard is supposed to be 10,000). No, I did not exercise, and yes, I did take a 3 hour nap that day . I'm glad it's over for now! X)

I didn't separate photography, manipulations, traditional work, etc. I separated Avatars and Literature because they tend to get lost in all the excitement . Thank you .

Literature:
ForevermoreFragments of broken dreams lie around me,- Nevermore
Reminding me of what never was,
Remnants of pain,
Pieces of a broken heart cast asunder,
Endless pain clouds my soul,
As I lie in the dark alone,
Voices of the past echoe,
The sound of tears all around,
Echoes of hearts I have broken,
Pain I caused,
Souls I have ravaged,
I look into my reflected eyes and see,
Evil,
Horror,
The monster that lies within,
The monster that is me,
I stay locked away,
Where I can't hurt,
Where I belong...
Forevermore
My MuseI have danced the tango with my muse- My Muse
spun her round and round the dance floor of life
Sometimes I lead strongly, choosing when to turn
but mostly I follow as she dips and spins me
until I get so dizzy I don't know which way is up
I've been left to dance solo, stumbling like a buffoon
but I could never stay mad at her
she has the grace of a gazelle
and sometimes, the speed of a cheetah
at these times my mind races to keep up
with her graceful sprint through my dreams
she's always smiling with this well kept secret
but she never says a word to me
instead I read her body
the way she moves tells me where to go
and the places she takes me tells me what to write
I've learned she likes music, but not always the same kind
slow and emotional when its time to try and rhyme
fast and upbeat when a long journey lays ahead
sometimes, just silence as we walk slowly around the block
but she has always been here for me when I need her
even at my lowest I can find her
and she'll guide me through the ver

i can still remember the look in your eyes that night. the sadness you've been holding back for so long was welling over. tears were covering the surfaces, threatening to spill over under my fingernails.
and then you left my arms, and walked straight out of my door.
i immediately went to my bedroom, cigarette in hand. drag after drag, i wondered what was going on in your beautiful head. how could someone with such high cheekbones feel so terrible inside? how could someone with such golden eyes feel so down? how could someone with such a bright smile feel so depressed? i tripped over nothing, landing face first on the wow-i-thought-this-was-soft(?) carpetted floor.
and all i do is strum my legs back and forth, making the most beautiful tune i have ever heard.
my eyes shoot open in the morning to screams; harsh, harsh screams. i look out my wi

If I Could Turn Back Time- If I Could Turn Back Time
If I could turn back time,
I would return to the time we're so much in love.
When we exchanged sweet lines.
When we both watched the rising sun.
If I could turn back time,
I would return to the time we're both happy.
When there's so much passion.
When there's laughter and smile.
If I could turn back time,
I would return to the time you're with me.
When I held your hands.
When I touched your hair.
If I could turn back time,
I would return to the time you're my woman.
When I believed you're the one.
When I believed nothing can change that.
If I could turn back time,
I would return to the time I didn't leave you.
When I said I hate you.
When I replaced you with another one.
If I could turn back time,
I would return to the time you're not married.
When I would say please return.
When I would ask for forgiveness.
If I could turn back time,
I would return to my past.
When I could change it.
When I could make it right.
Silent PromiseI cannot pretend that I don't miss him. It would be a lie no one could ever not see through, it's that obvious. And I cannot promise that it will stop eventually, knowing that the only moment in which I won't miss him is the moment he stands next to me.- Silent Promise
I don't know if I'll be able to open up for somebody else, after all we've been through together; after his love survived seeing all of my flaws. I cannot ask others to do the same he did, knowing that it is too much to ask of anyone. We came so far this time.
I will continue to love him and wait for him as long as I can, until my heart dies and takes the love with it. Nothing he does can hurt me enough to change that. I am sure, because he tried and did not succeed. I cannot break the silent promise I gave him without breaking myself, too.
Still, I try to convince myself that I need somebody else. Someone who can help me grow a new heart after the old one died. Someone to put the pieces back together when I fall apart without the glue

For in the mirror she existSome verses for a lonely soul,- For in the mirror she exist
from where they come no one know,
i want to be of those lucky ones that so i can understand,
what in my all my wisdom i haven't know to make,
i don't wanna hurt no one even less make them cry,
but now control of my life i will taken and get what i desire,
and not what they aspire,
for this is my sweat and work, my tears and blood,
and i will spill it where i judge it is right,
if you are interested, stand, walk and in the mirror your reflection observe,
and you will find where is it worth to spill all my dreams,
is not crazy love, is simple love.
