Essays

I love writing. I have no issue with it. But once I have to write about major policy changes in the United States, my mind turns to goo. I can write and write about theoretical situations and the policies in general, but once I have to start citing text, my hands freeze. I read the books, but damn. How the hell do I shuffle through six hundred pages of Blah to find something completely relevant to my genius sentences?!
sigh.

Realization

I think I'm done here. I'm extremely indecisive when it comes to some things in my life, and I realized that I made a bad choice. At least, I think I did. This school is highly ranked and will surely pay off in the future, but who am I kidding? I don't want to be an engineer. I don't want to slave away doing calculus and thermodynamics and physics. It just isn't me. I want to be happy. I've never really been ecstatic with my life, but I sure understand when I'm depressed.
This place just makes me severely depressed, shoving me into a whirlwind of sadness and regret day by day.
I thought my life was getting a little better by a few select people entering my life. But now I realize that I'm changing who I am for them. I'm changing my morals; I'm changing my rules. I don't want to change these things for someone who I know is temporary.
This place makes me feel like I have no choice. I feel forced to constantly hang out with people and I don't enjoy it. I don't mind being alone, but I hate being lonely.
Something needs to change.
I just need to make a decision, and quickly.

The Breath of a Fallen Angel

[story mode engaged]

**I lay down beside him and his rough, gentle hands take control. Never in my wildest dreams did I think this would happen. I attempt to pretend that I'm sleeping, but I've never had a good poker face. I lay motionless as his fingers move over my arms, down my side, brushing my legs and moving back up. I can feel my heart starting to race, and better yet, I can feel his against my back, beating to the exact rhythm of mine. Ten minutes pass by, twenty, then thirty; I'm not sure how to react but I know I don't want him to stop. I start to consider the right time to flip over, so my face is right in his. I count to fifteen, twenty, thirty, forty; all this time and I cannot muster up the courage to do it. He knows that I'm awake by now. He starts to tug on my side to get me to lay on my back. I know that resisting him would just blow my cover. I timidly roll over to my back and stare at the ceiling, still unsure of how to handle the situation. His hands dance all over my body. Soon enough he's on top of me. His marble-like skin gleams in the faint light coming from the window. I shyly run my hands up his arms and gracefully back down. His face leans closer to mine in the dark; I can still see his eyes staring right back into mine. I've waited years for this moment and finally it comes. He kisses me. At first it's light and airy, but then he progresses to pulling on my lower lip with the mere force of his lips. He holds onto it like a savory strawberry. This exchange happens for the next few hours, each minute bringing a slightly more intense touch and a different position in relation to the bed.
When it was all over, I couldn't sleep.
I returned to my dorm the next morning and I couldn't eat.
This drastic turn of events not only made my stomach churn, but it shook up my life in the best way possible.
I thought I loved him before, and now I'm not so sure, but there is no doubt in my mind that this boy, Abel, is meant to stick around for a while. At least, that's what I hope.

Blogs

Blogs form a temporary moment of escape. I've had a few before, but all became known to a few friends' eyes. While I don't mind this, I would love just to have a 'space' to myself where I can be completely honest. I can post depressing things, tell stories about my day, and share personal information without worrying about getting caught in any sort of strange situation. This blog is merely to help me relax and, if possible, share my inner most thoughts with people who are fortunate enough to discover this. For now, I will need to read a few more hundreds of pages of a book before I get in too deep. Be back later :)
