Bloggers's Writer's Block Over!

Sorry I haven't posted anything for a while. There wasn't a lot of material to blog about for a long time. But now there is!
Yesterday I was channel surfing and I came across a rock concert. I thought to myself: "sure, what the heck, there probably is nothing better on!" so I stuck around and was shocked to recognize Andy(drummer for Fall Out Boy)'s back-weird how I recognized him from the back, but he does have a unique and somewhat frightening tattoo on it. I decided to continue watching to see if they improved on their selling-out. They didn't. They were not even themselves it seemed: the stage acts were toned down to walking around for the most part, Patrick and Pete seemed bored, and even Andy's drumming was less flingy. After the concert, Pete said that he would like to that PBS for letting them do the concert and I though to myself "Whoa, did he just say PBS? only bands that didn't make it or old bands play for them!" Right about then I came to an epiphany and the puzzle pieces came together: Fall Out Boy is no longer who they were in their peak. They are on the downward-fall-off-the-backside-of-the-hill most newer bands seem to be doing nowadays. ...I wonder how long they'll still be around.

For Those of You who Don't Like Change

-No, this is not political-

Today, i stopped by Wendy's to get some food after school. I had only five dollars to spend. So I decided to get a double stack off the value menu, a large fry, and a small drink. The total ended up being just 5 dollars exactly! I think i'm going to start playing the lotto now.

A roller coaster

My life is a roller coaster. It's full of ups , downs, twists and turns. I cannot see the finish and i cannot see the start. The downs increase the feelings of the ups and the ups increase the feelings of the downs. Who would want to be on a roller coaster with one straight track? You never see one in real life. I just want the feeling that when i reach the end, it was all worth it.

A Good Question

I did not succeed.
Is that called a failure?
-But I did not fail.

Gum Chewing Etiquette

Here in America, people love to chew gum-myself included. But it surprises me that a lot of people don't know how to properly chew gum. Here's a couple of tips on how to properly chew gum:

1. Make sure you chew with your mouth wide open.
2. Chew when you are in close proximity to other people-preferably people who are not chewing.
3. If anything should fly out of your mouth (like spit or the gum), do not stop it and pretend that it did not come from you.
4. Also, it is best chewed during quiet times like a sermon, funeral, or the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier.

If you follow these steps, you will know that you are chewing gum correctly if anyone stares, giving you a death glare, and/or other gestures of hate and annoyance.

The Dungeon

Upon entering the dismal place
I found two animals.
They were not dogs-
Or at least they were possessed-
For one was biting itself to the flesh and beyond
And the other was unable to close its eyes
And it stood there, like a gargoyle,
Glaring at my soul.

"The Truth About Lies"

Lies are cancer.
They don't hurt at first but they slowly kill us.
They appeal to our sense of instant gratification
and give us only temporary relief.

Truth is a syringe.
It hurts for a little bit but ends up saving our lives.
It makes us uneasy because it's against our nature to tell it
but it sets us free from future uneasiness.
