Promises

Promises are made,

not meant to be broken.

While some are whispered,

in the ear by a friend,

and some are made,

by saying "I do".

Promises are made,

not meant to be broken,

they are the very things,

that makes love worth it,

they are the very parent,

of trust and honesty.

Promises are made,

not meant to be broken,

without it life wouldn't be life,

it would be meaningless,

so I say ode to promises.

Ode to (well I don't really know)

Ode to chocolate

the brown goodness,

flavors swirling in my mouth,

filled with caramel,

peanut butter,

anything you can think of,

even cockroach cluster.

A piece of heaven on earth,

if there is one thing perfect,

on this imperfect world,

its chocolate.

Ode to toilet paper,

you are probably thinking,

why toilet paper?

because of its softness,

and its warm vibe,

you can deny the feeling,

of being home,

when feeling your toilet paper,

everyone has one toilet paper,

that they like the most,

because of a certain characteristics,

maybe its texture,

or the little hearts,

and diamond patters,

so I dedicate this verse,

ode to toilet paper.

Ode to feelings,

would it really be life,

worth living,

with no feelings,

no way of knowing what is what,

never getting the whole experience of life,

like a statue,

just there to be admired,

seen,

take picture with,

but not treasured,

carressed with love,

oh what a horible life,

not even sure if it is called life,

just a speck of nothing,

thank god for feelings,

so I say,

ode to feelings.

Ode to feathers,

the different colors,

so vibrant,

and overwhelming,

in a good way,

making life fun.

Just looking at it on a peacock,

or any type of word,

just makes me want to stroke it,

ode to feathers.

Random Truth

Grades/ Tests: Ok people I know that tests and report cards are a pain in the butt, but the most annoying thing about tests and grades are that it makes people feel stupid. I don't think that tests and grades tell you if you are stupid or not. I don't even think that they are very accurate. I think that the school boards should find some other method to test kids knowledge, because tests and grades just get students over stressed and makes them feel stupid when they are not. This really is bad espeicially if you have a very paranoid parent, no offence.

Death Is Not Pointless: I really don't know why some people think that death is pointless. It is not; it is far from that. Death is the reason we live. If there was no death then there is no point to live. People live their lives because they know that it is going to end one day. So they do all they want to do before that day comes. In a way, death is a good thing. Who knows what it will bring? Maybe, you are tired of life or you have the worst life. Death would probably give you a second chance to do things all over again. In my opinion, death gives everybody a new prespective in life.

Afraid of the dark: I don't think that the dark is scary at all. I mean I understand why little kids might be scared, but some adults are scared too. I think our fear of the dark makes as vulnerable. If we weren't so afraid of the dark then cruel people wouldn't use our fear against us. I think that our fear of the darkness comes from our childhood. Many parents tell their little kids about bad creatures in the dark. I know that they didn't mean anything bad, but our fear kind of grew with us.

Dealing with Stress+

I know you probably think that this is another corny article trying to get teens to be healthy. No, it is not. I really don't have anything to do with that. I just wanted to give you guys some tips on how to deal with stress ,because believe it or not being a teen is hard with tons of stressing matters. I want to help with that, because I have found some activities to help with that. They are not boring or anything and some of them only take a few minutes. They are also a whole lot better than sliting your wrist or doing something stupid like that. Ok?



Tip #1: Shouting in your pillow. I know people say that punching your pillow helps and I tried that but it didn't really work for me. Maybe it works for other people, but it doesn't for me, so I changed it a little bit. Instead of punching your pillow, scream in your pillow. That really helps me if it is a minor stress or I am mad at my parents or my siblings. You know when you are so frustrated or annoyed that you want to scream your head off? Yea, well that is when this tip comes in handy.



Tip #2: Boxing. It might sound very violent but it doesn't have to be that way. Boxing helps if you have a constant stress everyday. You don't have to hit anybody. You could probably buy those things where you hang them and practice boxing. That helps a great deal. It not only helps with stress but also anger managment. Insted of beating up people and get in trouble for them, why not box on those things?

You know stress is not all bad. In fact, it keeps as going. If you have little stress then it helps you accomplish your goals, but most people blow it all out of proportion. Most people tend to stress for the smallest thing. So my last tip is don't over stress, some things are not even worth worrying over.

Starbucks vs. Mom

You know I just love starbucks. My mom things it is good for nothing and just gets teenagers adicted with coffee and such. I guess she is half right. No I don't mean the good for nothing part. I mean how it gets teenagers addicted to coffee and frapochino. Well... I am in love with their pumpkin spice latte and frapochino. Did you know that there is pumpking spice frapochino? But they don't have those anymore, because pumpkin is out of season. Oh well... anyways fellow starbucks lovers, I just wanted to tell you that you are not alone.

Farwell for now:

Movie Critic

Ok, so this are some movies I watched recently that I thought were really good. Some of them you might have heard of them or watched a commercial on tv, but this summary of the movie. I will also have the stars in the movie.

Eagle Eye: Shia Labouf stars in it, and it is about this guy named Jim and his twin just died. When they were little they use to be really close but they drifted apart when they grew up, and when his brother dies, Jimmy (Shia Labouf) starts getting some misterious commands on the phone, and if didn't obey it he would die. On his way he met this woman and another guy, when the other guy wouldn't obey the commands he got electricuted in a freak accident, and if the women didn't obey the commands her son would die. So they have to find out who is giving the commands before they die.

The Uninvited: starring Emily Browning. The whole point of the movie is a girl trying to prove that her dad's girlfriend was the killer of her mother, and she has a sister who doesn't really believe her because she just got released from a mental institution.

Twilight: starring the hottest people in the world like Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson. If you don't know those names then you must have been living under a rock the past year. OK so, this girl just moved from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington to live with her divorced father. When she moves there she encounters these beautiful but strange people who aren't really accepted in the community. She finds herself strangely attracted one of them, the most beautiful one named Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson). She talks to one of her childhood friends, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), who turns out to be a werewolf later. She finds out that the beautiful people are vampires including Edward. And there is an amazing twist at the end of the movie. Its great.

Taylor Lautner

OMG! This is Taylor Lautner. He is so hot. He is the hottest celebrity ever, and I know a lot about him. After him comes Robert Pattinson, then Zac Efron. Those are the top three hottest celebrities.

My Place In This World

There lies a town,
a place,
my place in this world,
so come,
find out.

Walk with me,
look out for the bad things,

and be careful of the obstacles,

looming ahead of you,
they might cut you short,
before you cross the finishing line,
there are ghastly dangers,
and atrocious tests,
unlike any ever imagined.

We will be moving swiftly
through the thorny hills,
stumbling in the vales rill,

facing off against the vandals of life.

Beware of the soul searing feeling,
despair,
that is easiest to gain,
the hardest to lose.
It makes you think it is not worth it,
it is but a moment of doubt,
and a moment of pain,
for an ever lasting pleasure.

When you are hypnotized,
then you have finally arrived,
a sweet smell plays in the air,
and the wind scatters the green leaves,
the colorful blooms,
decorate the sun kissed meadow,
while the passionate sun beats down,
on the clear, sparkling fountain,
cascading down the rocky hills

life.

Nestled between independence and comfort,
hope and spirit,
there lies a town,
a place,
my place in this world.

Dear Diary (2):

Sorry I didn't write anything on Saturday night. I had to go to my cousin's house. Actually, I should probably start from Friday.



On Friday, people got carnations and lots of candies. I think I might have eaten a little too many candy, because I was really hyper. When I got home, Grams put me in the shower to cool me down, and it wasn't exactly the best way to cool me down. After, I got in the shower she remembered that my psychologist told me not to be in the water too much because of me talking to the water. She tried to get me out, but I wouldn't because me and the water were having a very important discussion. (By the way, it is about the water's wedding. It asked me to be the maid of honor, but I don't I can be especially not with my Grams around.) Anyways, when I finally got out after about two hours my Grams was mad at me, but she came around after I made her a delicious meal or at least I tried and burned her favorite apron. She still forgave me though, because she thought it was sweet of me to try to make up to her.



On Saturday, I had an appointment at the psychologist at 1:00 PM, but I am sure you already know that since I have been talking about it for the past week. It was actually quite fun, but there was something the psychologist said that I didn't like. She said that maybe I am talking to the water, because I have nobody friends to talk to. Most of the grade and other people from other school are my friends, thank you very much. It isn't my fault that she wouldn't believe me that the water talks to me. That is her problem, but the funny thing is nobody believes me except this old guy I met at my psychologist's office. He is very nice except he talks under his breath non stop. I don't think it is weird at all for a person to talk under their breath.



Anyways, on Saturday night we went to my uncle's house. Oh my god I ate so much chocolate strwaberries that night. I couldn't go to sleep, because of all the sugar in me. We stayed their till 11:00 PM with our cousins their. It was realy fun, and it was kind of like a post Valentine's Day party. I wish we could do it all the time, but I don't think that is possible.



Oh and on Sunday I went shopping with my mother. It was fun except there was this really hot guy in one of the store, and he looked about 14-year-old. He had gorgeous hazel eyes and messy blonde hair. He was amazingly cute, but my mom was talking about stuff that was very embarassing in front of him but I was fine because she was talking in a different lauguge. The mall was flooded with cute things. I got a green skinny jeans from H&M and a turquoise skinny jeans from Dillias.

Unfortunetly, I couldn't find any cute dresses. I really thought there would be an adorable dress in H&M, Dillias, or Forever 21, but there really aren't. Well... there are pretty good dresses but I really couldn't find a dress that looks good on me. Oh, well... I will tell you when I find a pretty dress. I will probably have to look in other malls.

Your truly;

Tatiana

Dear Diary:

I looked out the window of the highest building. I could see everything and everybody. People bustling down the street, dogs going trough trashcans, and the city just waking up. All of them have freedom and I am going to use up my last bit of freedom tonight at the dance. I got a really bad grade and my Grams is grounding me till I don't know forever. But don't worry I will find a way to get out. Don't get me wrong. I love my Grams and all but I think she is a bit strict, no actually she is a controlling freak.



Now you might think I am a little spoiled brat. No I am not, plus I don't want to think about anything tonight except the dance. Oh yeah baby! I need to show people my moves. What moves you say? I got none. But still that is no reason not to dance.

Since my Grams is taking me to the a psychologist tomorrow I need to have as much fun as possible. You know she thinks there is something wrong with me. I don't think there is anything wrong with me at all, except the occasional talking to the toiletries while I am taking shower and laughing out loud randomly at the dinner table. I mean those are no reason to take me to a psycologist, but I don't mind.



My Grams is a nurse so she knows a lot of people who are involved in the whole medical buisness. She is taking me to one of her psycologist friends which I don't mind very much because there are pretty cushions and a very comfortable couch. There is also the reception room that has bullet proof window for the assistant just in case the patients got out of controll. If you ask me I think that is a little paranoid, because I come here all the time to visit her with my Grams. Every time I come here the patients seem very normal. There are people with so many scars on their face that I would need to touch their face to count it, and there are old, fat people who talk to themselves and yell out randomly. Except these little flaws the people are very nice.



Oh well, I got to change for the dance right now. I am wearing a really cute outfit. Fashion and school are probably the things I am good at, oh and making friends. I am a social butterfly at my school and I have a lot of friends. My Grams sometimes thinks I forced them to be my friend and constantly wonders how I get very good grades when I am so weird. I am not weird, I am just outgoing and not shy. I usually don't get embarassed about the stupidest things, and I talk to random people I don't know at school. I don't really get embarassed that much for example I don't get embarassed if I fall down or talk about things in my life that are very weird. People might get embarassed about those stuff but not me. Well, bye for now.

Yours Truly,

Tatiana

The View from a Friday

The whisper of dreams,

and the creation of souls,

when the millions of stars,

shimmer and twinkle,

across the night sky.

And when the meteor strikes,

just a blur of fierce flame,

then it disappears.

In that moment,

some life start,

and some end,

but no matter where,

the life cycle continues.

But beyond the beautiful things,

to the lack of wisdom,

and the heinous words,

also the ignorance,

of human beings.

The shadows in every corner,

teaming up with the hideous souls,

as they try to break it,

to break the beautiful beings,

and shatter the protective barriers.

All is all and in the end,

the spiteful things,

with the sweet tastes of life,

make up the view,

the view from a Friday.

Sinister Smile

Standing there,

with the feeling of longing,

hypotonized,

so irresistible,

it almost seems like a sin,

to not accept,

with the sinister smile,

and jet black hair,

that fall on his eyes,

like the first snowflakes of the season.

A little imperfection,

a small scar on his nose,

on the left side.

But that little imperfection,

make him even more perfect.

Nobody can pull it off,

except him,

and especially

that sinister smile of his.

Cannibalism :(

You know what cannibalism is? It is the act of one human eating another human. You might think nobody would do that no-matter what happens. Well, Al Packer was a psychotic man who ate five of his companions. Him and five other friends went on a gold mining expedition. I suppose he was starving at the time so he sneaked upon his friends, cut them up and ate them one by one. When he got back he had gained so much weight and none of his friends had come back so people became suspicious. On March 16, 1883 he wrote a confession, and his trial began April, 6 in Lake City, Colorado. In the end he died Jefferson County, Colorado in jail.

You think this is a legend made to scare little children, right? Wrong, because this is a completely true story. To prove it I am going to show you one of Packer's quotes; "the breast of man...are the sweetest meat I ever tasted." In 1980, Jim Robertson and a poet named Burton Raffel, made a movie about his story called, "The Legend of Alfred Packer".

Scary, right? More like disgusting. Who would cut up and eat their own friends no matter how hungry they are? I think I would rather die of starvation than eat my friends. Plus, there were only seven Democrats in the county at that time according, and he reduced them to two. Those other two are lucky they didn't go on the expedition with him. I think he deserved what he got and more. By the way, did you know that cannibalism means the act of one human eating another one? Just an interesting fact!

Happily Never After

Once upon a time, in a land far away there was a very handsome prince. His father was dying so the prince was getting ready to take throne, but before he does that he has to get married. So, the prince ordered his most trusted men to look through his kingdom to find him a lovely maiden. He sent one of his men to the east, the other to the west, and the other two to the north and south.



One morning he heard the click clack out his window from his room. He walked over to his window and looked down to see a girl tied down to a horse just like they do to criminals. Just when he was about the go, the farm girl looked up and saw him. They studied each others features. He saw her dirty face and those bottomless gray eyes. There was no fear in them just cockiness. Her jet black hair tumbled down her back outlining her curve. He didn't think she was anything special, just another girl that happens to be in his way.



He got dressed in his usual attire. Expensive leather boots and hunting clothes made just for him. He hadn't gone hunting lately because he had been busy trying to find a fine mate. He walked down the hall like a respectable kind would to the stable. He had heard that there was a new horse keeper. He was looking forward to meeting them but when he got to his stable, he found out that the girl he had seen was the horse keeper.

Do you want me to get to end? I will do just that because I know that it is getting boring. So, that night one of the men he sent came back. The one he sent to the East came back with a lovely maiden. As soon as he saw her he fell in love with her. He asked her for her hand and of course she agreed to marry him.

After months of preparation everything was ready. The wedding is tomorrow, and the prince is the happiest man on earth. But, just at midnight Dreama his beloved was called to the stable. Dreama went there no knowing what to expect. When she got there the stable girl , Mrs.Evil, was waiting for her.

"Why did you call for me, stable girl? I don't even know you." Dreama said in confusion

"Oh but you will. By the way, I am not a stable girl, I am an evil enchantress from a distant country. I came here because I heard that he prince needs someone special. I am definitely special and more importantly I want his kingdom." sneered Mrs.Evil

"Well, you aren't going to stop us from getting married. Plus, you can't kill me, and why are you doing this anyways?" asked Dreama

"First of all who said anything about killing, I am just going to kidnap you to lure the Prince here and then I am going to put a spell on him. Oh and, I am doing this because we both know that this is my destiny." said Mrs. Evil an evil smile playing on her face.

After an hour the prince arrived at Mrs. Evil's chamber.

"Why do you call me? I am looking for Dream. She is missing, and I am very worried." the prince explained.

"I might know where she is." Mrs. Evil said batting her eyelashes

"I already know who you are and what you can do, but I trusted you enough to let you stay. I guess I was mistaken." disappointment filling his voice

"I wouldn't call it a mistake, but I am going to give you mercy and let you choose between her and another lady. Don't worry the lady I chose is very appropriate for you, but there is a catch." said Mrs. Evil

"Of course, there is always a catch." said the Prince in a sarcastic tone.

"There are two very similar, sound proof doors. One has Dreama in it and the other has the lady I chose in it." and then with a flick of her hand Mrs. Evil uncovered two identical doors.

The prince looked at both doors and after a long silence he said "I choose the one on the..."

Which one did the prince choose? The one on the right or on the left? Well, that is your choice. Did he choose the lady or did he choose his true love?

Into the Green Sea Water

I could barely keep myself,

from having hysteria,

my hands trembling,

when I put my hand on the boat rail.

Tunder rolled above me,

through the dark night sky,

and the waves of the ocean crashed,

against the immense boulders,

the wind whistling,

and howling,

like a hungry wolf.

I rocked my boat back and forth,

it flips y boat upside down,

flipping my whole life along the way.

I hold on to the cold metal rails,

for dear life,

but it does no good,

I went crashing down,

into the green sea water.

Embrassing Stories

Ok, so my friend was talking about some embarassing stories she read on a magazine, and that gave me the idea to blog about some funny, embarassing stories so here we go.

This is about a girl who was making out with her boy friend. While they were making out, he grabbed her butt, and she farted in his hand. He was grossed out and I don't think they went out after that. I am sorry about this. I feel really sorry for the girl this happened to.

It was pretty late at night and this girl was sitting on her boy friend's lap. They were making out, but her boy friend wanted to use the bathroom, so when he got up she saw a blood stain on the back of his pants. When he came back from the bathroom, he told her that he noticed it, but she made an excuse. This one was pretty embarassing but at least they didn't break up.

These two couples were at the movies and like all happy couples not watching the movie, but making out. The girl had the flu when they were making out, but that didn't stop her from making out with her boy friend even though it ends up as a complete catastroph. No, it is not what you think. Her boy friend didn't get the flu, but he did end up with a puddle of puke on his lap. Gross, right? Anyways, she got really nauseaus from the tongue swirling in her mouth and well you know how it ends right? I don't really know what happened to this couple after this incident.

Get ready for this one. This one is kind of funny. These two have been dating for a while and they didn't have their first kiss yet. It was after the guy took her out for dinner and he was going to give her a good night kiss. He was about three inches away from her face the rubber band of her brace snapped and hit him in the face. Atleast these couples just laughed it off and didn't break up.
