I miss this place. I think I ought to come back. My soul needs it.

It sounds funny to admit, but I have spent the past few years in relative hibernation because I didn't know how to deal with becoming an adult. A few years ago, music was the most important thing in my life. I bled it and it came out of me like breathing. Music was so important to me that it was the sole defining characteristic of my sense of self ( Read more... )

4:30AM is amazing. There are so many things I missed when I was younger. I haven't seen a lot of that time in the morning in my life, unless it was at the dying end of the day. Most of my 4am memories are of stumbling home from clubs, bars and strange buildings with a lonely heart, aching for connection, no matter how much love I got. But I can't ( Read more... )

When music discovered me, it was the first time I had really, truly believed in God. Before that, all I had were burning questions.

What complicated my careful consideration even further was that these occurrences were set in motion by someone I used to love, defend and hold dear. I would be lying if I were to state that the comments ( Read more... )

Trying to become an authentic human being is one of the hardest tasks I could have possibly imagined. People expect you to do things, whether you want to or not. It seems, time and time again, we've always got to answer to other people and do things for the appeasement of other people, whether they are our bosses, teachers, parents, girlfriends, ( Read more... )

I think I have the flu. I'm sweating, coughing, puking and I can't hold anything down. This REALLY pisses me off. It's awful. The worst part is, I can't for the life of me, figure out how I got it ( Read more... )

There are a lot of things I just don't understand in this country. One of them is Ann Coulter. I realize a lot of people absolutely love her, but there are so many things that she stands for that I just take issue with. For one thing, Ann Coulter is cruel. She libels and slanders with absolute disregard for truth, justice, integrity or the people's ( Read more... )
