i love writing because it's like painting...

terribly personal and you can do it just to say you did it...

i have stuff i've written just for me and then of course, the stuff i write to sell..

but even so - when i'm writing - it's just for me - it's pure art - just for me.. no strings, no validation. all i want is for it to be good. i don't even have to let anyone read it if i don't want too..

i don't think about the rest until it's finished..

I was really bored one day in my philosophy class during a free-write which we get two days a week and because I couldn't think of anything else to write I started writing a story based off of Sweeney Todd, but just one character and it's not finished and haven't gone back to it. Eh I'm still working on it.

I've been writing this one story(in my head) for about four years and haven't written it down and don't know how it ends yet.

I dont tend to share my stuff.. I guess I am a little weary of what people might think about it.. I'm overly cricitcal.

[Racetrack]

Posted: 12/31/04 at 1:55am

I don't either cam. The only time I ever share it is when we have to in Philosophy.

that's the beauty of a solitary art like writing

you can totally j/o on paper and nobody has to know....

(thank God for journals!)

i don't share my writing either. i don't have that much of it anymore, don't have too much time. any free writing I do is here, or in my online journal.



to fredi, from NTG

"Thanks for reading and giving me all that feedback. I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule for me. I'll definitely start thinking about your dare. For now though, I'm finally going to bed. I'll be at a party tomorrow night, so I'll talk to you all in '05. It's gonna be a happy new year!!!"



i'm leaving too. maybe my cold will GO AWAY. i wanted to go to bed early, so i'll be able to make it to midnight without fighting a war with my eyelids. oh welllll

i'll probably be on sometime tomorrow... dont know if im doing anything yet.

Yeah I should go soon too. I'm fighting off some weird stomach bug. It involved feeling really unwell yesterday and picking my friend up to go to the movies and on the way to the movie I got sick(not going to give details) for some weird reason. My mom and my friend handled it quite well, but I was really really embarrased. Anyway Tums I think is necessary right now.

Fredi, since you're from St. Louis and I'm going there next weekend, any suggestions of places I should see while I'm down there?

Suddenly felt like posting this..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The shell of me

I gaze upon a reflection, in the mirror so pale and drawn
The light, the love, the hope inside, now that's all gone

The eyes are cold and empty, hardened by the past
Staring back with no forgiveness, until I turn away at last

Unable to bear any longer, the accusations from within
Trying forget what's happened, and learn to live again

Moving on would be quite easy, but memories quickly remind
The fear of going through that again, doesn't easily fade with time

All she knows is that the last time, it hurt too much to bear
The love, the loss, the heartbreak, it's easier not to care

But that just leaves her lonely, and longing for something more
Wishing she could turn her heart back, to the innocence of before

She's seen the light before her, and it made emotions stir
The warmth in his smile and touch, they're calling out to her

The voice inside her is screaming, trying to make her see
If she could just get past the fear, imagine what could be

It will guide her from this darkness, she's lived too long alone
Remember all the beauty, her hearts not made of stone

Anger stirs inside me, how is it that she can still refuse to see
Then I realize the reflection is not some girl, it's the shell of me
