Daily Journal Jan 30th

Well today is good. Its a firday so a weekend is coming up! Sadly My hard drive went in my computer last night, so now I dont have a computer, Who knew life would be boring without a laptop in your hands! I feel lost without electronics! It is an inconvience without a computer, but luckyl my room mate has one so i can still keep caught up on all my online classes, so it isnt the end of the word...but still sucks!!

REWRITE: Week 2 History of me

I sit at my desk working on an english assignment then all of a sudden an announcement comes onto the intercom. Its my Principle, "please stop what you are doing and have your teacher turn it on channel 6 news "My teacher gets up and turns the tv on. What I see I will never forget. The Twin towers have been attacked! At my young age I thought ~what is the concern to this?~ As my teacher begins to explain the importance my heart falls and my stomic turns upside down. How could this happen with all the security in all the airports. I remember it taking so long to just reach the plan. Then the building falls, and the screaming is like nails on a chalkboard. I then begin to wonder, wasnt my aunt coming home for vacation to see everyone? then I begin to tear up. The thought that my aunt could of died and been one of those planes is something so devastating. The rest of the day was silent, I could hear a pin drop....I then go home get off the bus, run inside and see my mom at the table crying. i ask her what has happened? what has caused her to be so upset...Then it hits me...My aunt was one of the passengers of the plane...I sit there and cry with my mom. She has lost her sister and i lost my aunt due to a terrorist attack. It took me a long time to recover and still that day will be unforgettable to me, as well to others, but especially to me....9/11 the day the world stood still...

Then came high school. They say that high school are the best years of your life, but I beg to differ, my freshman year was terrible. Didnt make a lot of friends, wasnt much of a people person, and was always getting into trouble. One of the days I will never forget (11/23/05) that is the day I went to jail. I had gone because one of my friends had gotten hurt from someone and I cared for her like she was my own sister. I took matters into my own hands and it wasnt the brightest choice of mine. I was sentenced to 5 years, but I got out on good behavior after a year. I am still on paroll till this day. Jail is a life changing experience, i dont suggest it, but if it wasnt for me going at the time I did, i wouldnt be who i am now.

Its the end of my senior year in high school and I applied to many schools, the wait for the responses were unbearable at times. Then I hear my name called to the office. I receive a stack of letters, they are all from the school I had applied. I open them one by one, and each were denial letters, by the time I got to the 5th denial letter I thought I would never be going to college, I thought I would be stuck with a dead weight job for the rest of my life. Then comes the envelope from Eastern Maine Community College, which was my last hope for a successful career. I open it, and jump for joy, I have been accepted to EMCC for Computer Aided Drafting and Design! That was the happiest day of my life!
Global Warming, do many people follow that? I believe it, there has been a lot on tv with global warming, and that we are doing it to ourselves. A lot of talk about water melting, air thining as well as the ozone. I begin to think, what if the exstinktion of mankind is our fault? Do I want my kids to live in a world that is almost unbearable? It is time to change things. Al Gore is on the tv, discussing ways to change global warming from getting worse. But there are many that mauk him and think it isnt true. But those are people who make money over the things that are ruining us, Gas, Oil, Mills etc.. I hope that things change for this, and I will keep up with the information
I sit in my dorm room and turn on the tv. It is the presendent making a speech, It is time that we take our troops out of iraq, we have shown what we can do, and what will happen if violence still accures with us. At this point I begain to think this monkey is full of shit! He has been using the same speech over and over again sense the war started and nothing has changed. As the time goes by, still nothing. Later on I see on tv in bing bold letters THE CONTERY IS IN RESSETION! Im very puzzled, what does this mean? I begin to watch furthur. The i got the jist of it, basically we are back to the depression, or atleast heding in that derection! What happens with jobs? Money? insurence? i cant live without those things! People begin to start getting laid off from work and big companies begain to go bankrup! What is going on with the world today! At this point prices are dropping. Instead of paying $4.00 a gallon its only $1.70 and I can finnally fill up my tank! It amazes me, I always said that I would go streaking in Acadia Park if gas goes below $2.00. Well looks like its time for me to get down to my skivies!!
1/20/09 at 12pm the Inogralation of Barack Husain Obama. This is truely a day in history! The first African American to become president. Now I didnt vote for either. I voted for the green party, Ralph Nader all the way! It is time that our country is runned by someone who isnt from here, and someone who isnt a family of the country, and what I mean by that is all the Kennedys, and bush's that ran the country. Time to change it up!

Scenes and Dialog

I love sitting a airports and watch all the people around. Last summer i was heading to new york to visit a friend. This was my first time flying. So i was a little nervous. I sat at the gate. and a plane arives. I see a lady with blond hair and glasses waiting at the door. then i hear a high pitch scream. "Oh my god! its you! I havent seen you in a long time!!" then the man with curly brown hair says "i know, its been a long time." They start huging and sit down at the termenal. That is when their conversation gets interesting. He begans to say..."so I have a surprize for you" "Oh ya, what would that be?" Then what I see next surprizes me just as much as it surprizes her. He gets down on one knee. "will you merry me?" he says. At this point the whole airport is quiet, waiting for the decision she makes. She has a puzzled look on her face, then a grin from ear to ear "Yes! I would be happy to spend the rest of my life with you!" Wow! At this point I was surprized! From the way they were talking it seemed liek it was forever sense they saw each other, and then to purpose in a airport? that seems very tacky to me.
Well that was enough excitement for me. And my stomic started to grwole uncontably. It was time for me to grab a bite to eat, after all i had about 2hrs to wait. I head over to get a berito. There are a lot of interesting people at airports, especially at food lines. I begain to over hear a conversation between a lady and her child. "Mom I dont want to go, I want to say with you! Im to scared to go!" The mother gets down to one knee to look at her child in the eyes, and wipe away the tear that has just run down her face, "Honey its ok, your a big girl! and Daddy really wants to see you!" The child begins to have a smile on her face, as if she never was crying. "I know i want to see daddy too, but i will miss you" Then the intercom comes on. "Flight 1233B to calorado is now bording!" The little girl begains to cry. "Mommy that is my plane!" "I know dear, it is time to leave." They begain to walk over to the gate. I begain to have sympothy for the little girl, I could relate to her, I was just as nervious as she was, it was my first time on a plane as well. It was my turn to crab a bite to eat. "Hi I would like a number 3 please." "Would you like fries with that?" the cashier says. "Yes please!" I gave her the money and returned back to my seat.
My phone goes off, "Throw your dollar bills, leave your thrills here with me" I answer it, I thought it was on vibrate! Its my mother.
"Hello my son"
"hey"
"How is waiting for your plane?"
"Its good so far, kinda bored, and axious at the same time."
"Its ok, you will be fine."
"I know, still the point I guess."
"I know, well I was just checking in, make sure you call me as soon as you get there."
"I will"
"Ok well have fun, love you!"
"Love you too"
As I hang up the phone, a couple sits across from me, I didnt look up, just sat there reading my book. They begin talking. "So I packed your lunch, your plane leaves in an hour, all your stuff is all set. and your cary on has all your stuff that you need through the plan, your book, ipod, computer etc.." "Ok mom! haha, I know babe, this isnt my first flight!" "i know, but im just nervious for you, with al lthat has been going on in these days, you cant help but to be extra safe!" "Did you see how much crap we went through just to get through the line? It was insane, if someone were to do somthing I would shake their hand!" She hits him, " Dont ever say that! That isnt funny at all!" "I know Im sorry" "Make sure you call me when your getting ready to bored and when you arive!" The intercom comes on again. "American Airlines flight 1558 to Buffilo New York can now bored at gate 5" It was time for me to bored. I was surprized to how many people are willing to have conversations with strangers around. I almost didnt want to leave, some conversations were interesting. I bored the plane and thats where the story ends from here..

Daily Journal, Jan 29th

Well so far so good today. Again i forgot to write a log. I went to my classes today, inspite how tired i was. I was able to finish my cad assingment today, with was great. And now I am just hanging out with some friends until dinner time. This week has been a great week for me so far...*knock knock* Knock on wood!

Daily Journal, Jan 26th

SO..again I forgot to write my daily journal...I figured to make up for it I will write 3 extra daily logs..I only have to keep them for a week, so i figured that is 7 entries. This past weekend has been good. Although very boring. Ironically I am getting home sick. It is ironic because i usually dont miss home. But with classes and the usual "drama" I ust need a weekend away from here, where i can be around my friends and family and just chill....not have to worry about school or people, and just chill and get nice and drunk! I havent done that in soooo long, im due for a fun night!

Daily Journal, Jan 22th

Well today has been a good day. I actually woke up on time, and my alarm was set the right way! I was able to finish my assignment in my CADD class and next week onto a new assignment! Some things have been bothering me. Mostly relationship problems, but I am working on them. Writing in this daily journal is helping me. I dont like talking to people, but i enjoy writing out my issues, it helps me face them on my own. Keeping feelings bottled up inside I have learned arnt healthy. So I am working on it. And so far so good for me!

Daily Journal, Jan 21th

Well..Today..Lets see...I slept through both of my classes today. My alarm was set, but set for 8pm! I wasnt a happy camper. So i had to run around and get talk to my teachers to make sure it was ok, and get my assignments. that was hectic. Todays lunched looked like they went out back and had a bunch of cats puke it up. Alone with dinner. I dont see why it costs 1600 for a meal plan when the food isnt even half way decient. So i have been starving all day because I am a broke ass college student. Today hasnt been a good day for me at all. Really crapy, but I try to take everything with a grain of salt...the only shitty part is, I FUCKING HATE SALT!!! Tomorrow is a new day. And I hope it was better then today...Well thanks for listening self....

Daily Journal, Jan 20th

So I havent been all that faitful to writing a journal, and I sorry for that. School can be stressfull sometimes and as an adolecent adult, my attention span is quit small. But so far so good for school. The classes are ok. i did my first speech today for class. I talked about my success in getting an award from the governor. Speaking in a group has never been a strong part for me. ive always been the one to be at the back of the room, and just sit there and be quiet. It was hard to have everyone looking at me. and I was so nervious. But I was able to get it done, and I was happy to get it done. Maybe this class will not be so hard if I am able to get use to it!

Week 2 History of me

I sit at my desk working on an english assignment then all of a sudden an announcement comes onto the intercom. Its my Principle, "please stop what you are doing and have your teacher turn it on channel 6 news "My teacher gets up and turns the tv on. What I see I will never forget. The Twin towers have been attacked! At my young age I thought ~what is the concern to this?~ As my teacher begins to explain the importance my heart falls and my stomic turns upside down. How could this happen with all the security in all the airports. I remember it taking so long to just reach the plan. Then the building falls, and the screaming is like nails on a chalkboard. I then begin to wonder, wasnt my aunt coming home for vacation to see everyone? then I begin to tear up. The thought that my aunt could of died and been one of those planes is something so devastating. The rest of the day was silent, I could hear a pin drop....I then go home get off the bus, run inside and see my mom at the table crying. i ask her what has happened? what has caused her to be so upset...Then it hits me...My aunt was one of the passengers of the plane...I sit there and cry with my mom. She has lost her sister and i lost my aunt due to a terrorist attack. It took me a long time to recover and still that day will be unforgettable to me, as well to others, but especially to me....9/11 the day the world stood still...

Then came high school. They say that high school are the best years of your life, but I beg to differ, my freshman year was terrible. Didnt make a lot of friends, wasnt much of a people person, and was always getting into trouble. One of the days I will never forget (11/23/05) that is the day I went to jail. I had gone because one of my friends had gotten hurt from someone and I cared for her like she was my own sister. I took matters into my own hands and it wasnt the brightest choice of mine. I was sentenced to 5 years, but I got out on good behavior after a year. I am still on paroll till this day. Jail is a life changing experience, i dont suggest it, but if it wasnt for me going at the time I did, i wouldnt be who i am now. 

Its the end of my senior year in high school and I applied to many schools, the wait for the responses were unbearable at times. Then I hear my name called to the office. I receive a stack of letters, they are all from the school I had applied. I open them one by one, and each were denial letters, by the time I got to the 5th denial letter I thought I would never be going to college, I thought I would be stuck with a dead weight job for the rest of my life. Then comes the envelope from Eastern Maine Community College, which was my last hope for a successful career. I open it, and jump for joy, I have been accepted to EMCC for Computer Aided Drafting and Design! That was the happiest day of my life!

I stand, waiting in my gown, knees weak, my pams are sweaty, and I feel sick. Then the music comes, I tell myself it is time. Time to graduate! High school will be over! I sit on the bleachers, then my name is called...I stand, and smile, then all my awards and scholarships are listed....I didnt know i received so many, it felt like I was standing there for an hour! Then the ceremony is over. We all rise and walk off...I did it, I finally graduated! Class of 2007!!

Its the end of the summer and now its time to start my future. The ride to EMCC felt like an eternity and my stomic wouldnt stop turning....I get all my stuff and move into my room. Living on my own was never something I had done before, hell i just learned how to do laundry for myself!! I kissed my family goodbye and looked at the door as they left. That was a hard sight to see and I could feel a tear run down my face....It was now time for me to become a man! My first semester seemed to go by so fast, i made a lot of friends. Then came my second semester, as did that go by fast! then third semester. Then I realized, wow I am on my last semester for my degree. I thought that high school went by fast, but college is a blur!

Im now on my last semester of school and I cant be happier. I thought I would never make it to where I am now. Who would of thought it, I would make it to where I am now. A person who was such a trouble maker, and people thought I would amount to nothing. But here I am! on my own and my life has changed! A lot has happened to me in my past, that at the time I thought was hell, and wouldnt be good for me. But I look back and realize that everything happens for a reason, and although i would change a few things, I dont regret what happened to me. Because if it wasnt for my past. I wouldnt be who i am today......

Who I am as a writer.

I haven't always been that strong in writing. Usually my average grade for a class was a D in high school. I was never able to write what I wanted, what suited me. It was always a set type of paper, always structured, and that isn't me as a writer. 

       As you hit college it got much better you were able to get some ideas from yourself. You have always been more of a creative writer then a technical professional writer. You like to sit down and write how you feel, whether it turned into a short story or a wonderful poem that was music to your ears.

He always enjoyed writing poems mostly, the best poems that came from him were the ones from the heart, usually about a family member who had passed away or a more heart warming cause, like falling in love. As long as he had an idea of what he is going to write, and as long as it is open to anything he can usually come up with an amazing piece of writing.

Daily Journal, Jan 12th

Well i don't really know how it is suppose to go on these daily journals but worth a try. Wow! Today was an interesting day. I moved in with my friend into the dorms, and had to go to my classes, I think that this semester will be much easier, because the classes seem to be more fun. The only bad part about it is that they are all early classes and i'm not much of a morning person, more of a night owl, but I hope that this semester goes much better, I have a feeling it will!
