I'm rather cheerful today, even though yesterday I decided to erase my ex-boyfriend from my life. I just finished the book Twilight yesterday, and if you haven't noticed, it's my new favorite book! Plus I've totally fallen in love with Edward Cullen, the main male character and vampire!! It's very funny, I find vampires very atractive, it's also slightly disturbing, haha! LOL.

I think I'm goin to start writng more lyrics. I LOVE music! So I might as well right for my love. Hmmm...that was an interesting quote. Anyways, it's still summer and I'm still havin fun. The "Golden Boy" I told you about, he's like a really good guy friend. I couldn't imagine trying to understand guys without him. We haven't seen each other all summer and I posted a pic of myself and he was like, "Is that you?" I geuss I've changed a bunch over the summer. So look out world! The new and improved Autumn is coming back to school!!!

Single again, I just can't seem to keep my life together. Well I'm not perfect you know. I've started writing a novel. It's Fantasy/Fiction. I don't know if I'm ever going to stop procrastinating and work on it. I'm the worst procrastinator in the world.

Here I am again, writing on this page words that who knows who will ever see or read. I love this site, everyone has always been friendly and encouraging, even if they didn't agree with my poetry style sometimes. But that's ok you know, I mean it's not like I write my poetry for them, or anyone as a matter of fact. I write because my soul bleeds words like your hearts pump blood through your veins. It's like an addiction, I got a taste of it when I was younger, and now I can't get enough of it. I eat, sleep, and breathe words. They are singularly so important to me, it's impossible, and I thank God each and every day for my ability to use glorious words to express this constant surge of emotions that I feel every minute of every second of every day. I don't think that I have met anyone who has my vividly extreme outlook on earth. I love my life, I love life! I love my planet and I love this world that I was born to live in. Everything about it amazes me and makes me feel so extremely small in such a huge world, but it's such a glorious feeling! I am so apart of something that is too big even for my words, but I can't help but try to describe it, because that's who I am. Some people have blood, I have ink. Some people like sports, I like books. Some people use knives, I use pens. If I could embrace the entire world right now I think I would. I just think about it and it amazes
me....Just......Breathless.

New boyfriend, new songs, new cast, new family, new friends, new preacher, new room, new passion, new goal...God, I feel like I've been re-made into somthing totally different than I was before.
11-18-08
Well, life has become extremely difficult. All my friends are going through different crisises and I am becoming.... Mellow??? Sort of. Well, and then there's my ex, who is still not talking to me, and lives across the state, this very large state. I wish I knew why. Life, is complicated.

Well, peeps, it's happened again. Yet another boy has waltzed into my life and tilted my world. This one, however, is slightly different. He's eight months older than me, which puts him as the oldest guy I've ever really been interested in (sorry Johnny, it's just not realistic). I think he might actually be shorter than me, but, lol, not much, and I really don't mind. He's really, really, really strong. O.o Lol. He's in powerlifting and he loves it, which just makes me adore him more. He's a really good Christian guy. He's very intelligent. He likes too read, ^_^. He's read the entire Twilight series, and he likes to compare himself to Jacob, which makes me laugh because noone could possibly eclipse him. He's uber charming and good looking, but.........
He's a senior. This is the major problem, because although he's told me he likes me and there's no way I can doubt it, lol, and I've told him the same, he doesn't want to get "serious" (his word, not mine) because he will be leaving in two short months.
But, lol, there's a twist in my life's latest plot. WE'RE GOING TO THE SAME COLLEGE!!! Which is actually an interesting story within itself:
I'd been feeling very worried and discontent with what I had decided to major in in college (Graphic Design). God had been nagging me about something, but I really wasn't listening, I was too worried about my stupid problems to let him fix them for me, lol. But after attending numerous services and reading many passages out of the Bible that spoke to me in a connected and sometimes awe-inspiring way, I had an amazing epiphany: I wasn't supposed to major in Graphic Design, I was supposed to study Archeology.
When I was much younger I had felt a call from God to go into missions through a girl's Christian summer camp I attended. The missionary's there had haunting stories to tell about the impoverished children they had encountered in African cities who were addicted to sniffing liquid glue. I was broken by their testimony, and knew that God was calling me to reach out to people for him.
Another thing I had known for a while was where I was supposed to be doing those missions. Picture sand, miles and miles of sand in all directions. A terrible, unrelenting sun schorching down on the dry landscape. Yes, I think you have it. Egypt. I've always been drawn to Egypt and more widely the Holy Lands, yes, the Middle East. Am I crazy? I don't think so. Am I scared? Yes, I am very scared, but I'm slowly coming to terms with what I know God wants me to do.
Because I was scared and unsure though I went to someone slightly older, much wiser, and someone I trusted completely- my youth minister. I told him what was on my mind and he encouraged me greatly, even told me how to present the idea to my parents (leaving out the words "Middle East"). He then asked me where I was thinking about going to college. I told him I had no idea. Imediately he said the name of the college that the boy I am so confused about is going to. I had to laugh the turn of events was so ironic
I don't really believe in coincidence. I believe everything is orchestrated and happens for a reason. So what does this mean for me and this new guy of mine? Only God knows, but I'm eagerly awaiting the outcome of it all.

Thought I should update my page to match my life. New boyfriend, lol, we've all heard that from me before, but this time its a little different. He's three years older than me. He goes to Tech and he's a music major. Lol, I'm really still in shock, not quite sure how this all happened, but he's coming home the tenth and I can't wait to log in some actual in-person time with him. Stranger still though, his father and mother are, have been, my teachers, and my parents were his teachers in high school. This is a crazy world we're living in. God bless, and peace out.

HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

I am the girl who came out to the entire school in her senior speech and got a standing ovation for her courage.

I am the girl who kisses her girlfriend on the sidewalk and laughs at those who glare.

We are the couple who planned and studied and got a heck of a good lawyer and BEAT the state that wanted to take our child away.

We are the ones who took martial arts classes and carry pepper spray and are just too dangerous to gaybash.

I am the lesbian who uses the bathroom that suits me, and demands that any complaining staff explain their complaint to my face in front of the entire restaurant -- and shares with my other gay friends which restaurants don't raise a stink.

I am the mother who told her lesbian daughter to invite her girlfriend over for dinner.

I am the mother who punished her son for calling you a fag.

I am making a difference. Hate will NOT win.

Because people are just that, people.

    I need advice. I have so much I want to say swirling inside of me, but can't seem to get any of it out. I've tried several times to start but always stop. I guess I don't know where to start, I'm not sure. Any advice would be fantastic. Thanks

  • rachetr : Azrael on August 19, 2008
    To answer your question, Azrael is the Angel of Death in some Islamic and early Hebrew lore, though he is not mentioned by that name in either the Qur'an or Torah.
    He is also the Angel of Evil, not death specifically, in some Hebrew circles, but not in this usage.
    I think it sounds cool. ^_^
