Besties and Brain Twins
The best birthday present these two could do was take a picture with me. The three of us live in three different worlds, have different groups of friends, but there are those moments when we come together and all barriers don’t exist. Granted, those barriers barely ever existed in the first place, but even so, I’m glad they found time in their day to give me the only thing that I...
Everything Happens At Once
Did it really have to be the end of the quarter during Spirit Week? I would have loved to go around during lunch, taking pictures of everyone’s crazy get up. But no, I was in a classroom the entire time, making up work and retaking quizzes. The whole school was affected by that. Then narrow it down to seniors, who are all blown that this Monday is the priority deadline for a shitload of...
What If I Risk It?
Have you ever seen a dying sunflower? Their faces bent down, as if bowing in shame; their backs turned away from their beloved sun, your heart cries out to save them. But somewhere deep down, you know they’ll rise again after they die, and you have no choice but to board your high speed train and let the tracks take you back to the life you belong to.

Never Be Afraid
to be yourself.
Boy hugs his girlfriend. Girl hugs her girlfriend. Boy hugs his boyfriend. Girl hugs her boyfriend. No one should be discriminated against for anything. Not for their skin color, race, gender, ethnicity, political or religious background, nor for their sexual orientation. Shouldn’t everyone get their chance?
ACCEPT. LOVE. ACCEPT LOVE.
Tumble Wires
Old poem I wrote like last year or so - before I had a tumblr. It’s time for tumblr publishing!
———————-
You’re always there, but then you’re not. I feel your presence here, but it’s like you’re caught - in a web of tangled wires all ready to expire with the beat of thunder, in the heart of the storm. You flicker on and off...
Clara's Designer Cakes
Needless to say that the David Choi concert on Friday was absolutely AMAZING. Not only is David Choi super short funny and amazing, but the entire show was just a really cool, close experience. It was very interactive, and having Hannah there to shout out to him from the back was really helpful. But that’s not the point of this post. The poiinttt is, that while waiting for our ride after the...
Happiness
I just got hit with so much of it, it smacked me in the head like a water balloon and knocked me over.
I think I could just die like this, really.

Blue Snowballs and Colleges
Today’s to-do list?
I’m having a little too much playing with my new Blue Snowball USB Microphone.
It’s a little exciting,
and makes me want to write music.
then I remember I don’t have time to do sh-
so then I take a deep breath
and open up all the links to my college apps.

10/10/10
It’s a month from today that I’m flying away.
Across an ocean and a sea.
Into a memory unforgotten,
a world that I never really got to know.
I used to be afraid of the conflict,
but now I’ve forgotten the fear.
I just want to come back with
a pure heart, and a head that’s clear.
I don’t want to lose myself again,
as if I’m leaving myself here,
this...
Connections.
I like making connections to people. Meeting new people, realizing they know some of my friends, and then other friends here and there - I think that’s really cool. I really, really love the friends I have, plus the new ones that I’m making. I keep connecting. And I’m glad that I do all that I can to help us stay connected. ♥
College Applications.
They just confuse me. I’m really angry and scared because quite honestly, I feel like I’m finding my way blindly in the dark. I’m going by what everyone has told me, but I don’t feel like I’ve actually read through any legit instructions by myself. For example. Brag sheet? I’m pretty sure I’ve done it, by writing my resume. But I’m not sure how...
Campus Life in 5 Hours
So my day was pretty freaking awesome. It wasn’t just the weather, I’m pretty sure it was the people. School lets out, I go home and get my stuff together. ANJNA SWAMINATHAN picks me up and it’s so lovely because it’s been so long since I’ve seen her. We grab Hannah and make our way up to College Park. After a brief hug, hello and goodbye to RAJNA SWAMINATHAN, we run...
