this year has been a big one for me.
i've let people who weren’t good for me go.
i've rekindled old friendships.
i've met new people.
i've discovered new places.
i've grown up - more than i thought was possible.
i've gained new family members.
i've moved halfway across the world.
i finally got to taste real japanese food :P

i've partied.
i've drunk.
i've laughed.
i've cried.
i’ve danced.
i’ve sung.
i’ve been embarrassed
i've regretted.
i've missed.
i’ve gossiped.
i’ve found independence.
i've fallen in love.

and now i am reflecting.
there is only one word to sum up this year.
it truly was amazing.
i've learned that without the hard times how do we appreciate the good.
i'm finally understanding what i want.
and how i can get that.

i know it’s still a little early but what the hell
happy 2009 kiddies
i love you all
here is a video of some of the amazing times of 2008.
if your are in it consider yourself lucky.

why is it - circa 2006

Why is it that we speak before we think?
Why is it that we make mistakes?
Why is it that we cant help but be bitches?
Why is it that we kick people when they're down?

Why is it that they want to rule us?
Why is it that they get to say whats right and wrong?
Why is it that they say things beind our backs?
Why is it that they dont understand us?

Why is it that i am losing everyone i love?
Why is it that i bother?
Why is it that i did those things?
Why is it that i am always sad , for no reason?

Why?
Because thats the way the world works

... i just found this poem today. i wrote it exsactly 2 years ago
i thought i would post it and show you a newly added part.

Why is it that when we are young the world seems against us?
Why is it that every word makes such a difference?
Why is it that we worry over things that don't matter at all?
Why is it that no one saw how much pain i was in?
Why is it that no one tried to save me from myself?
Why is it that i look back, two years on, and cant relate to any of this?

Why?
Because when life closed my door i opend a window.

au revoir.
