Seriously. I just don't get it.At my high school, it seems like the potheads and "drug-addicts" are the biggest, most popular clique. It's like drugs are the fall trend and everyone is wearing them. For some reason, it's cool to pop pills that could kill you and shoot toxins into your bloodstream. It's just the fucking coolest thing ever!At my high school, the people who walk around with holes the...

"Ugh, my dad is being SO over protective! I had a date with Scott last night, and my dad stood on the porch like a creeper when he dropped me off! Ugh, he's so embarassing and annoying, I hate him!""Man, I know what you mean. My mom is being so unfair, she grounded me because I stayed out late and forgot to call her.

There's lightning flashing outside of my window.Every five seconds.I've been watching it for about an hour now with Never Shout Never, The Beatles, Secondhand Serenade and various soft songs playing on repeat softly in the background.And, honestly, it's the most beautiful thing in the world.Whether it be one huge clash, the kind that illuminates the whole damn sky and makes me blind for just a...

It's what I'm all about, what I try to do, and what I stand for. I'm so tired of all the bullshit hate on this planet and I feel like getting a tattoo on my foot is the perfect way to express this.And guess what? She told me I could...

Okay, so everyone knows that today's society is royally fucked up. Pictures of skinny ass sticks litter the covers of our favorite magazines, the most successful movie stars are also the skinniest, most fit peoples I've ever seen in my life.

Teachers, friends, family, strangers, acquaintances...And it really bothers me becausea)Why does it matter to them? I like it. End of fucking story.b)Does there really have to be a specific reason?

So I'm a Christian. But I'm not a very dedicated Christian. Is that bad?Lately the whole thought of religion has really been bothering me. My mom and I aren't religious people at all.
