Here are a couple of my favorite writings from my journal. I wanted to open up my journal and share my poems and writings with the world. Some of these are very important to me, some of these pieces have been written during bad times in my life that I have put into beautiful writings. I found sweetness in these situations and maybe that's why I enjoy putting them into writing pieces. So here are my feelings, my thought, the people I love, my favorite things, my dislikes; here's my whole life.


Suddenly// 9:25 P.M

Suddenly all my pages in my journal

are about you.

All my favorite songs make me think

of you.

The taste of coffee tastes like you

rich in flavor.

And when I close my eyes

It's you who appears.

Suddenly everything was you.

My laughter.

My tears

My dreams

My nightmares


Nights//2:00 A.M

Late nights spent with you made me realize that I wanted to spend nights like those with someone like you. You touched me and made me feel whole, you kissed me and I saw stars. You made me feel happy and sad, I wanted to scream and cry because I was with you. I looked at you like the way my mother looks at my stepdad, full of love and happiness. I could stare at you the entire night, I would never get tired of looking at you. I saw galaxies in your eyes and heaven in your smile, I felt alive with your hand in my hand. Your hugs made me feel warm like hot chocolate on a cold winter night. But you also made me feel unwanted and weak. I knew that a person like you will never love a person like me. That late nights with me didn't mean anything to you like it did to me.


The Painting // 3:45 P.M

I'm like a painting

full of color and mystery

you can stare at me for days

but you will get bored

and move on to the next painting


Nightmare// 10/11/2016

I saw you in my dream

Again

Or

Maybe it was a nightmare.

You left me

In the middle of the road

And I waited for you

But you never came

I woke

But i realize

That wasn't a dream nor a nightmare

It was real life.


Seasons // 10/17/16

Spring-

You were there,

when the flowers were blooming


Summer-

I loved you as much

as the summer breeze and my sunflowers


Fall-

Like the leaves

my love for you was turning brown, and fall down


Winter-

My heart was cold

Waiting for spring to come again


10/18/16

It's okay

to let things get to you.

What's not okay

it's for those things to

Break you.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
