He who flattened your flame is getting torched

Alas! An Update!

School has ended for the summer and finished second semester with a whopping 1.86 GPA and thus have lost my scholarship. I've moved into a house here in Nashville with Mitchell, Wes, Tyler, and Jake and I'm valet parking at Opryland Hotel for work. making the big bucks, driving sweet cars, you know how i do. The only downside is that the internet at the house blows so I can hardly ever get online for any extended period of time.
Today Rachel came up to visit, it was good seeing her since I wasnt expecting to be able to until next weekend, and next weekend Riha and mattzorz are coming into town to make it a huge party.
Never go to Montgomery Alabama if you can avoid it, the place is a pile a crap.
We had a dog for two days but now it's gone.
I've been watching hockey like nobody's business.
I haven't played WoW since early March. It feels good.
I still have a craving to watch black and white films.

I feel like a totally different person now than I did two months ago. A better kind of different. I think I have a new understanding of the things that matter most and where my priorities should lie. The little insignificant things that I used to dwell on, no longer matter. Why waste my time? Life is much to short, and there is far too much to experience and appreciate. Why let a couple of miniscule things get you down when so much more is working in your favor?

Built Then Burnt. Hurrah! Hurrah!

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Dear Enemies and Friends,

Why are we all so alone here? All we need is a little more hope, a little more joy. All we need is a little more light, a little less weight, a little more freedom. If we were an army, and if we believed that we were an army, and we believed that everyone was scared like little lost children in their grown up clothes and poses; so we ended up alone here floating through long wasted days, or great tribulations.. While everything felt wrong. Good words, strong words, words that could've moved mountains. Words that no one ever said. We were all waiting to hear those words and no one ever said them. And the tactics never hatched. And the plans were never mapped. And we all learned not to believe. And strange lonesome monsters loafed through the hills wondering why.. And it is best to never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever wonder why. So tangle -- oh tangle us up in bright red ribbons! Let's have a parade. It's been so long since we had a parade, so let's have a parade! Let's invite all our friends. And all our friends' friends! Let's promenade down the boulevards with terrific pride and light in our eyes: twelve feet tall and staggering.. Sick with joy with the angels there and light in our eyes. Brothers and Sisters, hope still waits in the wings like a bitter spinster; impatient, lonely and shivering, waiting to build her glorious fires. it's because of our plans man; our beautiful ridiculous plans. Let's launch them like careening jetplanes. Let's crash all our planes in the river. Let's build strange and radiant machines at this Jericho waiting to fall.
