So tired of this "It's only good if you wrote it with a broken heart" crap... ugh. Emos! Everywhere! Write something happy!


HAPPY!

... HAPPY I SAY!

"You are not worthy of any of the seven depths of Hell."

Bruises covered the soft flesh of her body. Her skin wept tears of blood and tried to heal itself. The welts left on her back and neck had been red and burning hot.

That is how I remember her. Beaten, but still strong; dented, but still straight. Her eyes focused on nothing, clouds echoing in the depths of them in horrible memory. Mouth twitching to repress the cries, eyebrows furrowed slightly in concentration, trying to keep the past away from the present, fingers fidgeting with the button of her jeans, trying to stay out of imaginary trouble. Her feet planted firmly, holding up the rest of her structure in prideful arrogance.

Shivering like she was cold, whimpering at loud noises and raised voices. She was so far away from me. She would not break.

The map before me had been drawn on. Lines upon lines, curved and straight, thick and thin, they led to different places but came from the same location. Though I was miles away from her, I could still smell the salty tears on her face; taste them on the tip of my tongue, where I would lick them up from her neck. She would drown in her own sorrow if not for me.

She had done nothing wrong.

Who else spent 4th of July and the three days after it hurling into their toilet?

Didn't think so. Life sucks.

If you cut yourself, I DON'T CARE, don't go pushing it into my life!

... grr.

I got inspiration, now I just need motivation...


Love... hate... roar.

Nooow I get to do the fun thing and give excuses!

I've been first, extremely busy with school. It is testing time, and although I do not have to take the standardized tests this year or next, I have 'block hours' for school -- meaning I take about 2 hour long classes each day. And with all that, comes a -ton- of homework, busy work, and projects.

I've also been focusing on my car. The Jeep I'm driving is having a few problems, and my insurance is acting funny. And lately, I've been having some allergic reactions to -something-, but we don't know what, yet. I have to go to the doctor's to find out!

Add that with some personal stress of life with boys, friends, and overall ... stuff... let's just say we have a very busy Emily who wishes she could magically make more time!

I should be returning more regularly over the next two weeks, and then I am being shipped off to my dad's on the 1st of April for about a week, for Spring Break. I think he has Internet, but I'm not sure... if he does, it's slow, so I won't be using it much.

Whew. Okay. I hope that explains somewhat of my absence...

Sin of Lust Results is now up. Congratulations to all contestants!!

My apologies for not being more active in WC... I will be soon, after I get my research paper half-done and once my life gets put together.

We are trying to work out cars and insurance and all before I'm really allowed to drive, since my mom's car isn't working. I can't be put on my father's insurance until I manage to get into Oklahoma. We are hoping that will happen in the first week of April instead of mid-June.

Oh well. Less chance for me to get in an accident if I just don't drive... wewt.

I scored an 89. He graded tough and I suck at right hand turns. :(

Okay, I kind of lied. Snow melted, sun is shining...

And I have a license. WEWT!

Thanks to snow I don't get my license.

I got a 91% on my written test! :D

Now just got to take the driver's test and my license is in the bag.

Meh.

Much love, muah.

All right. After about 4 years of thinking, I believe I have finally come up with the type of tattoo I would like.

It will be a celtic tribal tattoo of a sun, and it will be placed on my inner left wrist. I know these aren't cut in half, but it is amazingly hard to find a sun tattoo design that's celtic and... not whole. But since I have to wait and keep thinking about it, I've got time to work something out.

Oh, and it's a little obsessive... but it's supposed to be a half-sun for sunset. You know... Fall Out Boy's, "Got a sunset in my veins." I just love that line for some reason...

"Sophomore Slump Or Comeback Of The Year" - Fall Out Boy,  Chorus and plus some.

"Are we growing up or just going down?
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out.
Take our tears and put 'em on ice,
'Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light.

There's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up,
And there's another around to help us bend your trust,
Got a sunset in my veins!
And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay."

And I MIGHT get another one on my inner right wrist, but we will see how that plays out.

I'd like to add color to it, though. Black's too boring. Perhaps blue fading to yellow? Hm. I tend to like those colors.


Anyway!

Bad [Hedda], BAD!!

NO breaking the world!

I did some reading for [Kuzco] and [SleepingDragon].

Have to get [Kaimee] all read up.

... sooo tired. But now I have an extra hour to my day :D.

"Cowards die many times before their deaths."

Meh. I called him to break up with him, he comes to my house and ends up hugging and kissing me, then he leaves and doesn't bother calling. So I snap and call him and basically give him a rant message asking who he's screwing on the side and why he will NEVER call me if he loves me so much. Sorry I'm not good enough for Mr. Bigshot, LET'S-ALL-GET-HIGH Ryan!

Fickle jerkoff.

Okay, I've made a lot of promises this past week or so to read some stuff and comment... first on my list is [Kaimee] for winning my 100 words contest.

As for everyone else, if you could please leave a blog entry, I would appreciate that. I get far too many messages a day to be able to keep up with who's who and what's what -- I can easily just read a blog entry and say 'Oh, I have to do that!' and hop to it. Also in these blog entries, feel free to mention which stories you want read or which you don't, along with any additional information you wish for me to keep in mind.

I don't plan on having a very busy weekend, so I should be able to get around to everyone in due time.

Thanks!
