I'm a FAIL
Per usual I failed to complete my challenge. I do claim however that it wasn’t really my fault. I just simply was unable to keep up when I started working a crazy schedule at work. Oh Well maybe I’ll start another challenge soon, any suggestions? I was thinking maybe being a vegetarian for a week, not going on facebook for a week or any other suggestions???

Day Four- I know I know, but at least its here
Okay so albeit rather late/early this is I still say it takes the place for Day 4. Ted Kennedy, and the Kennedy family’s dream for America is something I am more passionate about than anything else I can think of at this moment. I yearn for a day when I can say that I have worked to help as many people or change the lives and ways of thought of narrow minded Americans in the way this family...

– This is by far one of the most inspirational and passionate movies I have ever seen in my entire life. The very themes that infuse the entire movie scream for someone to do something about it and I really do think that the story, particularly this scene encompass the idea of Manself.
“Oh Beloved,
take me.
Liberate my soul.
Fill me with your love and
release me...”
– Rumi, This is the kind of passion I associate with true love
A Project
Since I have been on Tumblr I have only tried to complete one weekly little blogging type of project. So I have decided to create and try my own for one week. My goal is simple, to post at least two things everyday, be it audio, a video, a photo, a text blog, or some other link or chat I will post one thing a day. The next part of the project is a little harder: one of the things I post must be...

(Whatever noise a sigh makes)
Well I can’t sleep. I know exactly why, so rather than trying to fix it and sleep and then worry that I can’t sleep I am just going to stay up. That’s right. I don’t have to work until 1 tomorrow so I figure I might as well stay up and write on here or search youtube or even maybe finishing making a final copy of that manuscript, but I’m not going to sleep. You would...
Confusion back in the city
After feeling so content and being so happy the other day, despite my many questions, I returned to the city and was bombarded with ignorance. Firstly, the idea of a day celebrating coming out truly annoys me. Why on Earth would you want a holiday that celebrates a societal initiation rite that degrades one entire minority group? Its just ridiculous. By continuing to degrade oneself by conforming...
50 Banned Books That Everyone Should Read →
Apparently I have a very banned taste for literature seeing as I have read about half of the books on this list and at least 7 of my top 10 books ever are also listed here says something about my character I think. I unfortunately am unsure of exactly what they say about my character, decide for yourself.
Questions???? Feel free to respond
Why is it that sitting at home reading a novel about one of my heroes has forced me to think so hard about my future and my life that sometimes I have no idea what I am doing? Why is it that even when you are completely comfortable with yourself you can still feel as though you have more and more problems mounting everyday? Why is it that when all you really want is for someone else to be in...
Realizations
Oh good old home, how you make me realize soooOOOoooo many different things. For instance, nothing tastes better on a Friday night than a fried clam plate from Turk’s. Or you are exactly as crazy as the rest of your family, and therefore, completely normal (sort of). But most importantly I came to the realization today of how easy it is to completely not notice how much you can care about...
A Lazy(ish) Sunday
Being on co-op is soooo nice. I finally have some free time and the ability to relax on a Sunday without the crazy hectic schedule I usually do while I’m in classes. I get to just sit here typing away on tumblr and enjoying the amazing fall. The season seems as if it has officially changed and I couldn’t be more excited. Fall is by far one of my most favorite seasons. Its cool enough...
