There are plenty of things you'd like to say to someone, but never do. There are many times where you don't tell the whole story. Most of the time, we (humans) do this in order to not hurt someone's feelings. But you know what? People care too much about things they either can't control, or shouldn't care about in the first place. Because sometimes, you have to hurt someone to help them. Sometimes, you can't always be nice and joke about something you're actually serious about. Sometimes caring means not caring at times. So stop worrying about how you look, stop joking with your friend about them growing up and just tell them, and stop worrying about things you can't control. There's no point in thinking about something you can't help or fix. So stop making yourself unhappy. Just be honest - and whoever doesn't appreciate it can go fuck themselves.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17227828365912865495noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7135100573159346392.post-31649038031801981752010-06-11T12:48:00.001-07:002010-06-11T12:48:50.747-07:00CalculusCalculus is using the step you already took to get back to the previous one and wondering why you took the first step in the first place.<br />Calculus is the alternative route to drive through to prove to everybody that four plus four is really five. <br />Calculus sums up all your knowledge of math you’ve ever learned and applies them to real life situations.<br />In reality, calculus makes many problems easier and without it, you wouldn’t get anywhere in life.<br />Calculus is the tool you use to replace everything with letters, so why don’t little kids understand this stuff?<br />Calculus is the contradiction that says you can do whatever you want with the right formulas, but says you have a limit as it approaches infinity… <br />Calculus is the excuse you can legally use to approximate the number of cars on a particular road. <br />Calculus is the dictionary that allows anyone to say that x = y just for the hell of it.<br />Using variables such as alpha, beta, gamma, delta, mu, pi, and lambda mean nothing to any normal person, but if someone interested saw this, they’d scream about how awesome it is to use such cool symbols. <br />Calculus is “e.”Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17227828365912865495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7135100573159346392.post-7093019290500911182010-04-08T11:24:00.001-07:002010-04-08T11:24:59.469-07:00BlindIt’s been a long time since I’ve understood something completely<br />And looking back now,<br />I’m beginning to realize how much I don’t know.<br />There’s so much to learn<br />And I know so little.<br />I always thought I was fine when I was younger-<br />Excuse me,<br />Not fine- <br />Good, for a lack of a better word.<br />And now,<br />I simply can’t believe that everything means nothing.<br />What if this world is made up?<br />And humans are just…used?<br />What if you were told that everything you’ve learned<br />In your entire existence<br />Is just false information?<br />I feel like a thick coating has covered me.<br />I’m blinded from the truth.<br />May I ever peel the barrier away?<br />Only time will tell.<br />Hopefully, I’ll wake up soon <br />And stare truth right in the eye.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17227828365912865495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7135100573159346392.post-12345199120345284812010-04-01T20:49:00.000-07:002010-04-01T20:50:04.472-07:00Being ContentI feel like I’m on a journey-<br />A journey to explore the world and all its vivid elements.<br />I have trust.<br />I have faith. <br />And I’ll willingly leave this godforsaken world behind me<br />As I search for a new way to solve problems.<br />I’m floating through the air<br />At the same height.<br />Perhaps I’m hovering <br />And no one knows where I’ll end up.<br />Well, guess what?<br />I don’t think I care any longer.<br />I’m…content with the way things are now,<br />And being content in my mind<br />Is just the same as lingering in a blissful truth.<br />It’s what I’ve wanted for the longest time;<br />As long as I can remember even.<br />I’ll gladly stay in that blissful truth<br />If it means that I’ll be happy forever.<br />For some reason,<br />I can never seem to stay…content.<br />I guess I’ve found it now;<br />Hovering.<br />It’s not a physical object,<br />But a mental image that soothes and relaxes my heart.<br />I no longer have to worry about petty nuisances.<br />I wish I can stay like this forever,<br />And perhaps I can someday.<br />But for today,<br />I’m…content.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17227828365912865495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7135100573159346392.post-16707415825612040082010-03-26T19:19:00.001-07:002010-03-26T19:19:50.418-07:00Arctic ColdRushing waves at the Arctic<br />Crash down on the slippery ice<br />And destroy chunks of ice.<br />The glaciers change course<br />And float gently across the Arctic sea<br />Even though the waves say otherwise.<br />The frozen tundra splits<br />And the penguins scatter.<br />Leaping out of the way,<br />Many dive towards the deep blue.<br /><br />As the waddle of penguins swim faster than seals,<br />The surrounding icebergs sink into the icy water.<br />They dodge the chunks as they pierce the surface of the water.<br />Quickly and easily maneuvering through the freezing liquid.<br />Of course, they’re the fastest swimmers in the world.<br />No wonder nothing can catch them.<br />Even though the whirlpools control the waters at the time,<br />They aren’t strong enough to pull the birds inward.<br />Try as they might,<br />Its efforts are futile.<br /><br />And as the sheets of ice fall into the deep,<br />The penguins slide back onto the remaining pieces of ice.<br />Looking around for the rest of their friends,<br />They think back to the catastrophe nature has caused<br />And only smiled at the fact that once again,<br />The penguin waddle avoided this unfortunate incident.<br />With a sense of pride about them<br />And their heads held high,<br />The harsh wind feels like a welcome home<br />As the penguins of the Arctic continue on their diligent journey.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17227828365912865495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7135100573159346392.post-89142994173903130402010-03-22T15:12:00.001-07:002010-03-22T15:12:57.269-07:00Over BreakI feel so cold. A space heater isn't nearly fulfilling the warmth I'm searching for.<br /><br />It's spring break, and I have a week off from school. I returned home. My birthday is literally in twenty minutes. And I still feel empty. I'm a second term sophomore in college, so I've been home a few times, as well as lived on my own in the dorms. But this is the first real time where I'm realizing that I don't have a home. I have people who love me, and I love to see them from time to time. But I no longer know the meaning of the word "home."<br /><br />I have an apartment now, but it's still too early to figure out if it's "home" or not. Sure, I'll be living there from now on, and I won't visit the family again unless it's a holiday or if I'm in serious trouble. But is it where I belong? The truth is, I don't belong anywhere. Or if I do, I don't know where that is, or when I'll find it. One thing I know for certain though - this is not my home. That slightly depresses me.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17227828365912865495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7135100573159346392.post-85416951063820030562010-03-22T13:46:00.000-07:002010-03-22T13:48:18.780-07:00A

class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Creativity replaces your already occupied soul,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And imagination comes to life.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">A battle, or war perhaps at a far off distance is going to occur.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The humongous castle is heavily guarded with troops<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">These aren’t just any regular troops;<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">They’re skilled fighters.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Trained warriors with a specific weapon of their choice<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And I feel hollow and alone with only a sharp katana in my right hand.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">But nonetheless, I ready for a gruesome battle.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The winter wonderland is a landscape in which you feel sorry for as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Did the precious land itself deserve this torture?<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">It’s hard to look up because of the falling snow that lands on my tepid tongue now,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">But it still feels comforting.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Or at least, for a little while anyway. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Soon, the icy wind picks up,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And smelling the frigid air only makes me want to kill more. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I have a deadly mission to accomplish,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And I’m trusted to do the difficult task.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Soon, the archers and snipers behind the gate release the strings they pull.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Arrows soar through the atmosphere like whirling projectiles.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Dodging them is the hardest part, <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Because I can hear the thin piece of wood that screams past my ears.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">They act like eerie shrieks that constantly pierce into your head,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">It’s so painful and unbearable.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">But I reach the frozen, wet gate and try to open it.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The hand to hand combat begins, <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And I shiver,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">But not because of the cold.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I shiver in fear; I’m scared to actually fight by myself.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">After my sweat forms droplets of ice, <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I fiercely leap into the fray without and regards to whatever else is going on.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 15pt;"><o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I go berserk,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And kill every opposing opponent that dares to cross my dangerous path.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">I can smell the blood freezing at that very moment,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And I feel like time itself has stopped for a few seconds.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Eventually, magic spells begin to be cast towards the rest of my party.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Thunder crashes down to the ground next to me and I stumble backwards.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Terrified, I dash to the nearest protection.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">An igloo shields me from incoming anime spells.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Closing my eyes, I realize that there’s no way I can survive this battle.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">But I’ve been drawn in, like a soothing scent.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">It appeals to me even though I’m willing to die a horrible death.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">My imagination comes to life,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And creativity replaces my already occupied soul.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">My stories can express millions of emotions,<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">And it’s all because the book has many faces.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
