Having your accomplishments overshadowed by someone who thinks the words ‘friendship’ and ‘competition’ are synonymous.. is not super fun.

And You've Got Us Feeling Alright (a short story I wrote, based off of observations of a stranger in hockey rink)
“It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday, regular crowd shuffles in…”
Actually, it was six o’clock, and a Tuesday. He was part of a shuffling crowd, though, that much was true, if not much of a consolation. Waiting in the gray cell of a lobby at the hockey rink for his son to come out of the locker room, he was singing Billy Joel songs softly under his breath even though his son had told him never to sing in public, it was embarrassing, especially now that he had turned 18, and an 18-year-old can’t have a father who goes around singing all the time, for God’s sake. He always sang when he was waiting for something; he’d been singing a lot, as of late.
Honestly I learned HTML from Neopets.
I am trying to write a short story for my Lit class, but I think it’s time to face the fact that this is just denial. We all know I won’t end up actually concentrating and getting to work til at least 11 so why don’t I just go back to looking at college websites and pretending I’m not in high school anymore until then?

“If you really want to get to know someone, or if you want to get to know them better, nothing takes the place of a good old-fashioned coffee date, awkward silences, bad jokes, annoying habits and physical chemistry. Relationships were never meant to be neat but that, I think, is what makes them beautiful.”

Reality Show
I’m pitching a reality show where we take the Real Housewives and the Kardashians and we put them on an island.
Then we blow up that island.
It’ll be called “Karma”.
And happy 18th also to my other good friend Rachel, and happy 21st to my brother Jon :) I love today. 3 people that mean so much to me all happened to be born on this day.
Where would I be without January 30?
