Writer's Block: Wild Life

Apr. 28th, 2009 | 05:14 pm

How long could you survive on your own in the wild?


View 500 Answers

How long would I survive in the wild? Probably not very long. I know how to fend for myself pretty well, but there would still be a lot I wouldn't be able to do. If I took a positive view, I would probably last three to five days. I would be very lucky to last longer than that.

Fate's Twisted Ways

Apr. 2nd, 2009 | 09:13 pm

            Fate has a twisted way of working. One minute, everything is happy, and nothing could get worse. But then all of a sudden, your world is turned upside down. One minute, you could be walking home with friends from the movies, joking and laughing; nothing could possibly go wrong. But then, one of your friends doesn't look to see if there are any cars coming, and even though he try to stop that person, it's already too late. One of your favorable nights, just turned into a nightmare. 
            But it doesn't always have to have a bad outcome. Yes, your world may change in the blink of an eye, but it could be for the better. Maybe you are having the worst day of your life, then suddenly, you're having a great time. My case was a little different. 
            It all started at a vampire party. It was at my best friend's house and she invited four of us including me. We were going to watch Twilight and do what you do at a party-party hard. Anyways, one of our friends had to leave early, so we were going to watch the movie right away, but the guys that she invited wouldn't be quiet, so we decided we would stop. My friend, Sarah, and told me she planned to do the ouija board. I was a little freaked out because the last time we did it, it was just the two of us and we were talking to this spirit that didn't like when we asked it questions, but then it started asking us questions. Of course, I had my doubts about the board. Sarah told me that we could also be moving it phscologically, and half of me believed her. 
            Anyways, we had got the board out and had sat in a circle around it. Whitney, my other best friend, was scared to do it, so she waited with me. Sarah and our other two guy friends, John and Kyle, started to try and talk to a spirit. We were able to talk to this spirit, who was pretty nice and wasn't saying anything creepy. He was actually very humorous. 
           Back to the point. When it was just Sarah and me, we found out he could tell us a little of the future. Now how accurate it was, I'll never know. But we found out that I would possibly marry another guy in my grade.
           Now, me being me, I immediately became attached to the guy. We weren't buddies, but we talked and I considered us friends. The next day at school, all I could think about was the ouija board, and I couldn't stop thinking about the guy. Though, everytime I looked at him, I couldn't keep a straight face. 
           The point is, I started developing feelings for him.
           Of course, I had a history with my ex-boyfriend, and I still liked him. But all that went down the drain.

           I don't know if my future will change, or if it was just a lie, or even if I subconsciously moved my hands over his name on the board. All I know is, I have to thank that board everyday, because without it, my heart would still be in a depression, and I wouldn't have moved on. 
          So what have I learned from this?
          Fate's twisted ways aren't always bad.

Don't Bring Me Down

mood: lonely lonely

I went out with him....so what? Who cares! It's in the past, so let's just leave it in the past. Just let it go, best friend of mine.
You moved here from another state and you don't know him like I do. Just leave him alone. Just let it go, best friend of mine.
If you have something to say to me say it. If you have something to say to him, I dare you to tell him. Just let it go, best friend of mine.
Why do you care so much? Why do I care that you care so much?

I don't know.

Maybe it is not I who should be telling you to let it go, but maybe you should be telling me to let it go.
To let what used to be him and me go.
To let what might be him and me go.
To let what we could be go.
To let my past go.

It's in the past, so let's just leave it in the past.

Writer's Block: Comfort Food

Jan. 9th, 2009 | 04:20 pm
mood: amused amused

When I am feeling down, I usually turn to chocolate. A bit cliche, right? But that's not the only food. It usually depends on what the situation is about. If it is about my friends, I turn to poptarts and animal crackers. But if it has something to do with a romantic relationship, I turn to chocolate. When it comes to family, I eat toast. I don't really know why I turn to these foods. I have a theory for the last one though. When I was younger, my dad used to make eggs and toast for everyone in the family, and I guess I just want to go back to the better memories so that's what I eat. In conclusion, my comfort foods are poptarts, chocolate, and toast.

English Class

Sep. 27th, 2008 | 09:11 pm
mood: frustrated frustrated

There are a few things that I have to get off my chest right now about my English class. First off, it sucks. My teacher is really nice, but she talks to us like we're six years old instead of like thirteen and fourteen. It's so annoying!! And she does all this stupid crap in the time span of an hour-and-a-half and we don't ever have time to get it done, resulting in extra homework!!!! Plus she's so persistent....a little TOO persistent if you ask me. Oh, but that's not the worst part. My classmates are all jerks, nerds, or creepy. It honestly scares me sometimes. I sit by this one kid who won't shut the hell up and tries to cheat off me ALL the time. None of my friends are in that class so it's pretty bad.

There, I'm done with ranting...

Why?

Sep. 10th, 2008 | 08:24 pm
mood: content content

Look at me. I'm not anything special. Brown hair and blue eyes. So why would he want me, when he can have basically any girl in the school? I'm not very pretty, and I'm not that skinny either. So, why? I just don't understand. Even though we aren't together any more, he still chose me. We share many awkward moments, many looks of indifference, but I know that deep down, I still care about him, and in some way he still cares for me. I just want and need to know. It's eating me from inside not knowing why. I just want to know.

But I do know this: I still love him, and I'm glad he picked me.

Him

Sep. 3rd, 2008 | 09:34 pm
mood: peaceful peaceful

He does funny things to my health. For instance, whenever he looks at me, my heart flutters and my stomach feels like it did a back flip, but didn't land right. When he's walking past me in the halls, or when we are within a ten feet radius, I get all nervous and I feel self-conscious. If I think about him, a smile starts to spread across my face, my hands get clammy, and my heart rate speeds up. When he compliments me or talks to me, I blush hard, and I can't think straight. It's like all train of thought vanished.

When we pass each other and make eye-contact, even if it's only brief, I feel like I just got off a roller coaster and adrenaline runs through me.

But when he's not there, I get paranoid. I feel like something bad happened. I get in a bad mood, not necessarily mad, but a little depressed and put down. I zone out in school, thinking about why he's not there.

Maybe it's an infatuation, an obsession. Maybe I still love him. All I know is, I still and always will care for him.

Today

Sep. 2nd, 2008 | 07:18 pm
mood: cranky cranky

Today was a bad day. First off, last night I went to bed at 11:30, and woke up at 7 this morning. But through the whole night, I probably only got like 5 hours of sleep. So anyway, I got to school, and in English, we had to get together in groups and do this quick project, but my group wouldn't do crap! Thankfully when that was over, I went to Science. My science teacher is so boring. All he does is talk and his voice is kinda deep, but it just has that boring edge to it. I almost fell asleep on my lap-top's keyboard. Then we had to answer some questions, which I didn't understand at all, so I just sat there, staring into space and playing on my lap-top. During third block, I have chorus, which was okay, except I learned I have to sing a high 'F' note. Ugh. I had to get my picture retaken, so I did that, but the lady said I had to have my old pictures with me, so I had to run ALL the way downstairs, go to my locker, get my pics, and run ALL the way back up. Because of that, I only had 10 minutes to eat lunch and get to class on time. Fourth block is my SS class, and all we do is mess around which got us in trouble. In fifth block math, I didn't understand how to do a problem, and when I asked her, she just made it more complicated, and when I told her I still didn't understand, she just said, "Well I can't help you there," and in my mind I was like "WTF?! You can make it more complicated, but you can't dumb it down and explain it?!" I was so mad. Oh, but it doesn't stop there. At soccer practice, we had to do sprints, but here's the thing: our coach would flip a coin landing on heads or tails, and depending on what side you were on, that side would have to sprint the width of a college field and sprint back. It was so stupid. Some girls only ran like 2, while others ran 8. It was just so frustrating. Now I'm not the greatest runner, so when we had to run two laps around the college field, I almost died just thinking about it before we even started.

So that's how my day went. Just had to get it all out. Now I'm going to go bang my head against a wall...

For The Better

Sep. 1st, 2008 | 02:09 pm
mood: contemplative contemplative


When you breathe in, you have to eventually breath out. When you jump, you have to eventually come back down. Yes, we can all be successful at one point, but it will eventually be your downfall. When you can love someone, you can eventually hate that person. You will eventually do the opposite of something whether you take notice or not. Some people will tell you this over and over in your life. 'Live in the moment, for it won't last.' That may be true, but what they don't tell you, is that when all is said and done, it's for the better, and you may just end up liking it better.

Playful

Aug. 31st, 2008 | 11:21 pm
mood: playful

I hear a noise, a child's laughter, to be exact, and my curiosity is peaked. With playful intent in the air, I walk to the fence, separating my yard from the neighbor's, stand on the tip of my toes, and peak over. I see five children, ranging from the ages of six to ten, running around with big smiles on their faces. I look around and see that there is also a chocolate brown dog, chasing after the kids that dare cross him. I can only take it in with a smile, as I shake my head, chuckling, and lower back to the ground. 

I hear a rustling in the grass not far from me. I turn to look at my kitten, his body tense, as he laid on the ground, ready to pounce at the beautiful, yellow, butterfly. I smile grin, then take off running, startling both the butterfly and my kitten. I run down the road, to my best friend's house, where she is waiting outside. I slow down to a stop greet her, as we go into her house, playful intent surrounding us.

Relief in Writing

Aug. 31st, 2008 | 10:44 pm
mood: angst


'What happened?'

'Why can't I just be myself anymore?"

'I can't believe she said that!'

A bunch of jumbled questions, opinions, exclamations, all packed into one mind. How do I escape from it? How do I live every day with that same lingering thought? How can I find relief?

One word: writing.

Writing isn't just a bunch of words put together to make sense. No, writing is ones soul, heart, and mind. Writing is being able to feel what the author felt while writing that certain piece. Whether it be sadness, angst, romance, or humor.

So, as previously stated, writing is ones soul, heart, and mind. It's like writing your thoughts down on paper.

The relief of writing? You can answer your own questions, while getting it all out at the same time.
 
'What did we do wrong in the soccer game?'
What did we do wrong? Why did we lose so badly? How come we aren't willing to work on our problems?

We didn't talk when we needed to, and we didn't control the ball. We lost because we don't play as a team, and we don't play smart. 'The best defense, is the best offense.' Too bad we only have average defense. We aren't willing to work on our problems, because most of the team doesn't care about soccer. Nobody in this stupid town cares about soccer. They only play it so they can talk and hang out with their friends.
 
'What if...?'
What if I could have stopped a few of those goals? What if I could, should have done better? What if I could have changed the outcome of that game? What if I had tried harder?

Even if I would have stopped a few, we wouldn't have had the skill to take the ball up the field and score. I like to think I gave a 100%, but even then I would be lying to myself, so there is no excuse of why I didn't do better than I should have. It wouldn't have mattered. Most people would think it was a lucky game and that the opposing team had a bad day. If I had tried harder, maybe, just maybe, we wouldn't have lost so badly.
 
'Can I?'
Can I move on and learn from this experience?

Yes.


As previously stated, writing is ones soul, heart, and body. A way to relieve the mind.

My mind is already starting to relax.
