&lt;p&gt;Emo people make me want to cry!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So to cure zombie-ness try taking a vacation, a long hot bubble bath, or just speak your mind to someone that really gets on your last nerve. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So I had a temper-tantrum in the middle of band rehearsal on Wednesday. It was probably the most childish stupid, selfish and liberating expirence in my life. Wow to be a child again...... *sigh* After that I felt really stupid that I had a ten second major mental break down in front of seventy people. I am serious when&amp;nbsp;I say, I have the worst timing ever. That was like a three year build up of pressure that just kinda exploded, luckly I didn't punch anyone, which has happened in the past. (or hit someone with a mallet in the temple, I wonder if I'll ever be charged with assult?)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy Valentines!&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">Have you ever seen a fat person try to run?  Its so funny...for the peson watching........but it isn't very funny for the person running. How are they ever going to get in shape if people laugh when they run!!! Plus fat people have the jiggle factor, which is hard to harness,  because the jiggling of your fat can mess with your momentum. Sweat gets everywhere and it feels like you are swimming by the end of the run. Oh yeah swimming for fat people is hard also, because no one wants to see a fat guy with his shirt off. Its just gross....and kinda funny!

&lt;p&gt;What should the school buy if they had $500,000 to spend on anything?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am way to white for this spanish class. Every time the teacher gives out an assignment I just want to cry, because everything is in spanish! How can I do the stupid thing if I don't know spanish. I hate being labeled "the bad kid" in a class. Teachers sometimes find one kid and assume that he is going to be a pain. So then the teacher treats you like a jerk the rest of the year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dig this &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Women = time x money&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;time is money so&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;u&gt;time = money&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Women = money x money&lt;/u&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;Women = money^2&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;I watched my friend get shot right in front of me. Then he digs the freakin thing out of his hand with a pare of needle nosed pliers.&amp;nbsp;Lets just say I almost passed out&amp;nbsp;looking at it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The funny thing&amp;nbsp;about this is that is was his birthday.&amp;nbsp;Wowzers that really looked like it hurt, We wanted to get it out with a magnet but we couldn't find one that was strong enough. So he got a knife and pliers, iced his hand, bit on a spoon, and just did it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Its a good thing it was a freakin bee bee gun, and that he will never point a loaded gun at his hand again!! I just can't believe it went so far into his hand.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;After not being able to sleep for more than three straight hours at a time the last two weeks, I finally crashed. I have been doing so much thinking about so many people, that these last few days have left me...tired. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My concern for so many people is bothering my ability to see my own problems, i guess it is a shield or something like that. When i confront myself about how fake I am with some people, or how dishonest I am. I always play the "well so and so has it worse" card. Or I'll say "why am I concerned about myself when I should help someone else"&amp;nbsp; The point is, I fail to see what a liar I have become to myself, and that the only way to bring change is internal liberation. How can anyone ask someone&amp;nbsp;to be something that they are not. It just doesnt work. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am really only honest with a few selected people, but why is that? I shouldn't have any secrets to harbor. I think the reason is because my mind is like the US government. I have a internal lobby group inside my mind. One for family, one for women, one for school, one for teachers and so on and so forth. Each one of these groups puts on a front to get what they want. They each rationalize cutting corners,&amp;nbsp;lying and cheating to get what they want. Unfortunately like our government there are conflicts. When two fronts must be mixed together then these lies start to surface. The inconsistencies began to make more confusion. The answer that i can see is to cut down the "act" and all the stupid fronts and find a way to have all the areas of my life on the same team. I can't have secrets, that if this group knew then it would mess up things in this different area. If i wouldn't say something around this person, but its ok around another, then i shouldn't be saying it. I guess what&amp;nbsp;I'm saying is that I need a smaller "mental government" that isn't so divided. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Of coarse all this is easy to say......but doing it is alittle bit different.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</content>
