  <description>I REALLY&amp;nbsp;don&apos;t feel well. At all.&lt;br /&gt;I want to curl up in a ball in my bed and just sleep the next three days away. &lt;br /&gt;Lord knows I could use it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;fjdkaslgheiawefthwia;ghdkafjdias. &lt;br /&gt;That&apos;s all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How are you, my friends?&amp;nbsp;It&apos;s been awhile since i&apos;ve talked to many of you.</description>

  <title>Indifference</title>
  <link>http://crypticromance.livejournal.com/57704.html</link>
  <description>I&apos;m starting to not give a fuck.&lt;br /&gt;Apathy, apathy, apathy. &lt;br /&gt;Bahaha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This post is absolutely pointless, FYI. &lt;br /&gt;Random and pointless, like the 5 year old piece of gum stuck to the bottom of this table. &lt;br /&gt;Ignorant people; they make garbage recepticals for that kind of thing, you know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I get to see Tybaby tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;Jamaica in 48 days. &lt;br /&gt;There&apos;s a really cute boy sitting across from me right now, with a not so cute girl to his right. Pity.&lt;br /&gt;Out with Sam and her gang on Friday, perhaps?&amp;nbsp;Ya no se.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really don&apos;t think I can sit through two hours of Art History tonight. &lt;br /&gt;I would prefer to be listening to Dir en Grey&lt;br /&gt;and laying in my bed.&lt;br /&gt;Should I&amp;nbsp;stay or should I go?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My eyes hurt; I&amp;nbsp;think I scraped the inside of my eyelid the other day.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Don&apos;t know how.&lt;br /&gt;It arbitrarily starts watering, copiously, like i&apos;m crying out of one eye (like right now).&lt;br /&gt;Makes driving an ever bigger bitch when you&apos;re trying to pay attention and your eyes are trying to shut because they hurt.</description>

  <title>Judgment</title>
  <link>http://crypticromance.livejournal.com/57280.html</link>
  <description>&lt;br /&gt;Just because you have been on this Earth for a total of, &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MAYBE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, 5 years more than I&amp;nbsp;have, does &lt;strong&gt;NOT&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;give you the right to think that you are all knowing in your &lt;em&gt;superior&lt;/em&gt; age. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Au Contraire. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have seen things that would make your skin crawl.&lt;br /&gt;I have done the work of an adult at the age of a child.&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;nbsp;know what squalor and poverty are, i&apos;ve experienced them.&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;nbsp;have seen death and suffering.&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;nbsp;have lost everything that was once dear to me, and picked myself up again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Countless times.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So don&apos;t you dare, for even one fucking second, think that you can pass judgment on me based on ten minute intervals of superficial conversation. Don&apos;t you dare think that I&amp;nbsp;know nothing of the ways of the world, that I am ignorant to everything but my hopes and dreams and what mommy and daddy hand me on a platinum platter.&amp;nbsp;Especially when it&apos;s your eyes that remain closed to the things you do not want to see. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your ignorance and unwillingness to see beyond the surface are enough to make me cringe. &lt;br /&gt;</description>

  <description>sitting in spanish. &lt;br /&gt;text me doooods.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EDIT:&amp;nbsp;So i&apos;m sitting in the writing center, and there&apos;s this kid at the end of my table listening to his iPod. You&apos;d think when people are on the computer you would make sure your music is turned down low enough so noone can hear it. No, not this Joe. I&apos;m currently listening to his super awesome selection of &amp;quot;I&apos;m a wannabe gangsta thug&amp;quot; It&apos;s quite humorous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&apos;s lame. It&apos;s all lame. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Minus the fact that super awesome boys from my business class randomly pop up out of nowhere. Cute ones. SCORE!</description>

  <title>Revelations.</title>
  <link>http://crypticromance.livejournal.com/52833.html</link>
  <description>&lt;br /&gt;The things that one holds on to, to some degree anyway, amuse me. Take, for example, something that happened almost five years ago with someone who you never really gave a second thought to. Now, what in world would possibly make you think to reevaluate your actions from so long ago?&amp;nbsp;I myself cannot find the answer to that. Just a passing fancy, a spark of intelligence perhaps, or a smell to remind you of a wrong you committed, albeit unthinkingly and without purpose, years before.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone once did something for me that was so uncharacteristic of most 16 year olds, that I&amp;nbsp;took it completely for granted. To the point where I&amp;nbsp;did not &lt;em&gt;once,&lt;/em&gt; thank them&amp;nbsp;for taking the time to do what they did&amp;nbsp;for me. Until&amp;nbsp;yesterday. I&amp;nbsp;cannot for the life of me remember&amp;nbsp;what it was that made me think of that person, but it happened a few months ago, and the full force&amp;nbsp;of my actions hit me&amp;nbsp;so hard&amp;nbsp;I was utterly astounded and&amp;nbsp;left speechless. For those of you who know me, I am not one to be rendered speechless, especially not by my own actions. I still cannot believe that I was such an ass, even if it was done without purpose. For me to be so selfish and ungrateful, and to not realize it for years after. . . well . . . let&apos;s just say it was a rude awakening.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh sweet reality, how you love to play with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the years I have stopped questioning why I&amp;nbsp;am not &lt;em&gt;this&lt;/em&gt;, or why I&amp;nbsp;do not have &lt;em&gt;that&lt;/em&gt;. Instead I&amp;nbsp;have begun the process of changing the things that I&amp;nbsp;do not find to be to my liking. I have learned so many lessons, so many &lt;em&gt;truths&lt;/em&gt; about life and people and myself, that I&amp;nbsp;cannot even begin to describe the impact they have made upon me. I can, however, show it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;ve been looking at myself from many different angles. Learning my strengths, my weaknesses, my faults. I&apos;ve only just started piecing them together. I&apos;ve only just come to terms with the fact that self discovery is a life long process; that the decisions we make &lt;em&gt;now&lt;/em&gt; effect our biggest plans &lt;em&gt;later&lt;/em&gt;. It is such a breathtaking experience.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are so many questions that hold no answers. So many thoughts with circuitous actions. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center&quot;&gt;This steady beating will match the cadence of my footfalls,&lt;br /&gt;These inhalations will form the melody of my existence.&lt;br /&gt;Sounds will burst forth from shapely lips, &lt;br /&gt;And words will flow like water from this tongue;&lt;br /&gt;Tasting, Touching, Learning.&lt;br /&gt;A&amp;nbsp;journey so profound it leaves you breathless.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

  <description>I&apos;m sitting on the computer in the library at school. Totally thrown. I hate normal keyboards. I&amp;nbsp;have no idea how I worked with them before. It is as if there is an alien beneath my fingers, right now, as I type this. Entirely foreign. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;nbsp;want my laptop. And/or a good book . . . like the one waiting for me at home right now. Boo. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh!&amp;nbsp;We got another dog!&amp;nbsp;Her name is Dakota and she is a German Short Hair Pointer, 6 weeks old. She&apos;s so beautiful!&amp;nbsp;But a great big pain the toosh. I&apos;ve figured out why I don&apos;t want kids, and it&apos;s because all of my maternal instincts are for puppies and raising them. In short, dogs ARE&amp;nbsp;my kids. Therefore, I will not be repopulating the Earth. Sorry guys!&amp;nbsp;Hahahahahaha. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MMMyes, this entry is entirely pointless. I am going to go eat a lil sumn-sumn so I can survive these next 5 hours of class. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adios Muchachos!&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EDIT:&amp;nbsp;I&amp;nbsp;just wanted to point out that these keyboards are CRAWLING&amp;nbsp;with germs and microscopic life forms. grossgrossgrossgrossgross! I will probably scrub my hands raw after this. fdsafjdsak;.</description>
