To Unravel the Day



One’s rise to power

No foreshadowing could foretell

That even the world would glower

Or walk into the depths of hell

The return to the end

The end that never came to pass

But in its stead, revenge to rend

As the grass faltered and flattered

And bowed before the one



Unseen

No mystic could reveal

The bells that rung, and rung and rung

In deceit to rejuvenate and heal

But stopped, and the ringing no longer sung

But clanked and cried in this reestablished order



Swiftly

No agency of man or God could deter

The horrors to befall

For power, for glory; murder

Like a little voodoo doll

Swiftly the pin goes in; further

Swiftly the souls therein

Decay



Grass in the scorching sun

No more dread

But raging judgment

And flowing red

Oh, the flowing red, red, red



The red

Smeared away

In the night, no trace, nor sign

And angels unraveling the day

Freedom, relinquished by the flood

Dark hearts still willing to pray

That hell gives up these tides of blood

Okay, from all my classes I get around.. 30 minutes of hw total!

From English, I get.. about 2 hours worth?
Is this good?

Oh well. I wrote an article about illiteracy, but I'm not sure if it will get posted here at the Literature portal. I'm going to wait for the ok from Dave or BC before i'll send it to them.

Anyway, I'm procrastinating and I really should be doing my English homework.
Life is fun I guess, but I'm struggling with choices I should, or shouldn't make. I don't know what to do, but I find that I have things which I cherish, and things I wish to get away from. What to do.. what to do, indeed.

Anyway, my record in fencing is 2-1.
I seem to be getting the hang of being offensive. I love it.
Skateboarding is ..well, painful. times I have fallen: 5
Not very pleasant, but I get back up everytime, unless I can't get up anymore, in that case, I crawl home. Haha. Yeah.

I'll tell more about this later.
Life is a big soap opera.

Hey

So I wrote something that might be 'column worthy'.

I don't know, it's 11:30 and I wrote it in 20 minutes. I'm sleepy. Just about to go to bed.
I'm piled neckhigh in homework, but i find it pleasing to write in my NuTanG.
Not bad.

So here, i'll leave you all with a picture to ponder upon.



Happy October...

You are Cyclops! You are attractive and strong, in a boy scout
republican sort of way. You are set firm in
your beliefs, which is not necessarily a bad
thing. But often when faced with a conflicting
opinion you become defensive and angry and
prone to conflict. You like to be a leader,
but you must acknowledge that there are some
situations which others are better fit to deal
with than yourself.

Which X-Men character are you most like?
brought to you by Quizilla cool... i guess. love peace metallica.

Well, yesterday (saturday)

I saw Kill Bill by myself. I was supposed to be with Paul, Jay, Justin, and Kenny, but they couldn't find me.

I was supposed to go to the fundraising carwash in the morning, but i had fencing lessons.

During fencing I lost to a 1337 7th grader who has been fencing for three years :(
Just my luck.

Afterwards, I went home and ate. Then Jay called and said he could pick me up to go to the mall to watch Kill Bill. He called again a minute later, and said he couldn't as his older brother needed to be dropped off for Key Club, and I was out of the way.

So then my mom took me to the mall.

I went there, and nobody was there! Holy crap.
Lucky me, huh?
Well, then I decide they aren't coming, so I buy my own ticket and head on in. Surprisingly, they didn't check my ID, as I'm definitely not eighteen years old O_o. Ramie called me an old man. Ouch. @_@. Oh well, but with age comes wisdom... or so they say.

So then I see Kill Bill by myself, with a Watermelon flavored ICEE! It was damn good.


Kill Bill was a pretty cool movie. One of those feel good movies where there's half a plot, and all you have to do is sit down and enjoy it. I loved it because of all that action, and comedy, and gore... what's not to enjoy :D ! I mean seriously.. I loved it. Uma Thurman was awesome and Lucy Liu was radical. The movie could have been a lot better, but hey, it's good enough. If you like movies with blood, gore, swords, guns, fighting, comedy, and random Japanese cursing; THIS MOVIE IS FOR YOU! It was too good.
Two thumbs up. I can't wait until episode two.


So after the movie, I walk out and through away my empty cup. I think,' Hey, Jay and them have to be around here, right?' so I circle the mall and look everywhere. Thinking 'kooza yoroshika' as I run around. I mean hey, you wouldn't want to anger people for running... So anyway, 10 laps later; I find Paul! I run up to him and start yelling like crazy, and he just looks at me with his blank look, and sits down on a bench. Justin, Kenny, and Jay come up and start making a fuss about how i ditched them.

Ditcher? Lies. In truth, I was the one who was ditched.

Justin explained how they waited for 15 minutes then went to go eat... they never really looked for me. Then they came back and I was already in the movies. So they see Rundown because Kenny is a control freak and makes them see it. Jay called it crap, and really wanted to see The School of Rock with Jack Black. If I wouldn't have been able to see Kill Bill, that would have been my second choice. Jack Black is too awesome.

Ok so we hit the arcades and Jay steals many of those power card thingies so you can swipe em through the arcade game, and deducts money from your card... so you don't have to use tokens. However, known of them are charged. He claims 'hey I need book marks'. Right...

Anyway, he calls his mom and we're going to hang out at my house and play video games or something. Later his mom calls back and says she can only pick up Jay because she has to go back to work right after. Typical.

So then I call my mom to pick us up, but she isn't home. We go to the parking lot and sit on the benches and wait til Jay's mom comes to take him away. I get impatient and tell em we can get free donuts at Krispy Kremes. Samples.. but hey it's free food, why not? However, Justin, Kenny, and Paul just sit there and do nothing. Jay doesn't want to make his mom wait... even though Krispy Kreme's was just a 30 second walk from the benches. Lazy people. So I went and got myself a donut and ate it satisfyingly in front of them. Where were their donuts? Well... not definately not with me. As if I'd get one for them for not coming with me.

So after I finish my warm tasty donut, a minute or so later, Jay's mom comes, and he goes home. Then Moser, Paul, Kenny, and I head on over to TGI Friday's for dinner. My treat. So we all have burgers and have good eating. Except for Jay, because he left, oh well, easier on my wallet. After that, Justin's mom picks us up, and we talk about our English teachers and how hard their tests are/how much more homework we get because of our different teachers. Meh.

Then we talk about movies and Hannibal, Red Dragon, and Silence of the Lambs... I don't know why... Kenny's fault. Let's just say that :p.

Then I was the first one to be dropped off, and that's that.

I go play outside with my dog and the neighborhood kids for a while, then I came here into my room. Did a little homework, then chatted, and now doing Nutang.

Well, guess that's it.

Big day. Lots of fun.

Yeah.

Love. Peace. Metallica.
