Why do I do this to myself
Catching some cover....
While catching cover from the rain underneath the Ross store on 8th st I stood next to these two guys who was having the funniest convo. So these guys were talking about the rain right but like the speech was kinda slow & fragmented.
1st guy "Man this rain is killing me
2nd guy " I know (long ass pause) man
1st guy "I wish girls wore white shirts when it rained"
I swore it took them 10minutes to say this it was hilarious so I looked at my phone to act like I got a text message because I didn't want tto laugh in there face.

the opening poem of my capstone book...
The following is my
story.
I’ll tell you now,
It’s not very happy,
It’s filled with a lot of shit,
But it has to be told.
As I’m writing this,
My thoughts are jumping.
The stories you are about to read
Are in no specific order.
They wander with my thoughts.
Even this intro was written
After writing half the book.
I just wanted to warn you
That you’re going to be in
My head, where anything
Can pop up.
No warning,
No rhyme or reason,
Just random thought.
And this book may not be
For you, so I won’t get
Offended if you toss it.
Just don’t expect it
To be like anything
You’ve read before.
It’s raw and truthful,
And probably shitty,
But hey, it might help
You learn that
If I got through it
You definitely can!
Oh and also,
The names have been
Changed to protect
The innocent,
The accused,
And the assholes.
If you think you know
These people,
Feel free not to tell them
They’re in this book,
Oh, and enjoy
" I don't want to people to get mad at me. "
Then don't do stuff that'll make people get mad at you. Duh.
Portraits
I took some portraits of my friends today. Really excited to work on them and then share them with them. Hopefully they will like them though tomorrow we have to take more.
Trash
I woke up this morning and immediatley started freaking out because I heard the sound of a garbage truck; which means they were collecting trash, and I forgot to take out the trash last night. I was so comfy and warm I decided not get up and take out the trash even though I had a winning chance. As I was lying down on the couch, I was waiting to listen to the trash truck pass by my house. After 5-10 minutes it never did. I continued to stay in position on the couch and dozed off. When I woke up I still heard the truck. I went to peek out my window and saw that it was not a trash truck, it was some other truck tearing down a house. It was then I remembered It was Wednesday and the trash men don't come till Friday. I was kind of bummed it wasn't Friday. I wanted the week to be over.

Musical Instrument Blog #1
The glass harmonica is played by wetting one's fingertips, then pressing them onto the edges of the bowls as they rotate.
Differently sized bowls produce different notes.
The bowls are nested within each other, so the entire rack of bowls is cone-shaped.
It makes me think about how sounds that we don't generally think of as "music," like the rubbing of a wet fingertip across a glass surface, can be used to create music.
Since the bowls are nested within each other, the waves must only radiate out. Otherwise, a portion of the sound would be lost.

The Other Guys
"The Other Guys" is a damn funny movie.
Just sayin'.
Just sayin'.
Life is too short.
It's surprising really how time goes by so quick. I feel like life is racing by and I can't seem to keep up.
I have have been doing allot of thinking lately and Life really is too short. It is but it's not.
There is just so much to do and so much that needs to be done and so many things to experience and places to see that the reality of never being able to see it all is unsettling.
It just seems impossible for some people to be completely happy.
I'm not really sure how I feel lately, I think it's numb. Just wanting to leave high school and move forward in life, but even that.. It's not something I'm actually excited about.
I don't really know what I'm talking about..
But above all things I am happy. Despite all things I am happy.
I really am blessed.
God is good all the time, and all the time God is good.
He is the only reason happiness exists.

15 days
So today starts the official count down to the last day of the quarter. I know that I have not done a good job at all this quarter posting stories, but I know that if I were to be counting down to the says when I get to leave, I might.
So with about 2 days about until, I am really frustrated and busy for no reason. Not only do I have to teach my class for my Capstone, I have to work until about 9:30-10. Ugh! Plus, I'm running on about 3 hours of sleep. At this point I have no idea why we are still getting homework? I AM IN COLLEGE, and if I didn't learn it in the first 3 quarters I'm probably not going to learn it now. I just need this day to hurry up and be over. June 3rd just can't come fast enough.

Child abuse and Sexually abuse cases.
I had found a lot more then the first time. I learn about a daycare that was committing child abuse they would grab the kid and drag them to put them in different place. They would leave marks on the kid and they won't care until they were found out they got fried and sent to court for child abuse.
Then there is the McMartin Daycare case. The case was about a child that was sexually abused. The mother Judy Johnson didn't know that this was happening until one day when her son Matthew came home and said that his anus hurt him to have bowel movements, so his mother took him to a doctor, who declined to examine him. On August 11, she examined Matthew in the morning and he seemed okay. However, when he returned home from the preschool, she claimed, his anus was red and itchy. She began to perceive something more nefarious: She believed that Ray Buckey, the only male teacher at the school, was abusing her son. She kept on questioning her son to see if what she was thinking of was true. One day her son was playing doctor and giving people "injections," she asked Matthew if Ray had ever done that to him. Again, he said no. However, he did admit that Ray had taken his temperature, and then Judy Johnson jumped to the conclusion that this was a disguised form of sexual abuse. Then she took Matthew to the doctors for a rectal examination. It was not only Matthew that was being abused but also every child his Ray's class.
The picture shown is Raymond Buckey or better known as Ray the daycare teacher that sexually abused kids.

If I lived in a world of my own it would be anything but a wonderland, those obviously don't work. Mine would be a heart, a pure heart, a brave heart, your heart.
I neeeeeeed something.
Probably capstone related..... I should go finish my script up.
Hooooooooooooooo
When I was an owl, I used to go only for white mice. I hated barn mice. They tasted like hay and they made my saliva all gritty. White mice go down like butter. Seriously.

Love, Blood, Sweat, and Tears! Domestic Violence #1
Me & The World
Loving someone and being in a relationship can
be dangerous. You can have heartache, infidelity, and financial issues. Many
problems can occur, but the biggest danger in a relationship is Domestic
violence. I’m super interested in Domestic violence because Domestic violence
is an issue, and many people look over it and don’t care for the problem. Domestic violence can harm you physically and mentally;
it can harm you so bad, that you stay in the relationship. Some people get
addicted and get attached to the violence. Domestic violence can come from any
sex, male or female. Domestic violence is used to control your spouse or lover,
to dominate the relationship. The abuser likes to play mind tricks, and get you
really scared. They threaten you, break things, are super hostile, and very
aggressive. I don’t understand how you can love someone,
which harms you physically and emotionally. That hits you and insults you,
damages your feelings and makes you insecure. Someone that makes you bleeds
your own blood, and tastes your own tears. How come so many women and men stay
in the relationship? The abuser is the coward not the person being abused. The
abuser needs to harm someone to make them feel big about their self. The scariest part of it all is that people die
from domestic violence. People lose loved ones, they have heart attacks,
internal bleeding, stress level to high, and worst of all the abuser kills them
with there bare hands. If the abusers feel they are losing power in the
relationship. If I ever got abused I would be very distraught, to sit and go
through pain and suffering. To eat blood and tears everyday of my life, and to
live life with permanent Scars outer and inner body. Bibliography:
Rehab After Drugs and Alcohol [ The Longterm Save] pt. 2
Ok so after my research I
found out that people that smoke first hand are less likely to [pass] also people
that get second hand smoke seem to pass on average more than the person that is
smoking. I also researched alcohol, after drunk there are many
liquids inside you head filled with alcohol, I've watched videos of people
who had rehab after a car accident while drinking. When the person
went to the hospital they had alcohol in their head. It was very
scary :(.
Love, Blood, Sweat, and Tears! Domestic Violence #2
Me & The World
In the last blog I gave the basic information about domestic violence. I gave a summary about the types of domestic which are emotional violence, physical violence, and sexual violence. Domestic abuse is an epidemic in communities, cities, states, countries, and the world. One of the most un reported crimes in the world. Change sure will come, but this blog is about the numbers and statistics.
One in every four women will experience domestic violence on any type of level in her life times. 1 of every 30 men will experience domestic violence in his lifetime. 85% of the victims are usually women. 1 of every 6 women will be raped, and 1 of every 33 men will be raped. More women get sexually and physically abused, than men do. Most people get raped by their own partner or lover.
Domestic violence is serious and is an eye opener. Even though women are usually the main victims, gentlemen please be aware you can also be a victim. Domestic violence can end your life, give you emotional trauma, and harm you severely. You should go get help, not only is your partner or lover harming you but your harming yourself by staying. Domestic violence can be anywhere and sometimes people don’t even know when their partners are harming them emotionally. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS FAR FROM A GAME!
