break out and dance.

Gosh, sometimes I just randomly feel like breaking out in dance.


These are the things that happen in my dreams. I wish this happened in real life... that'd be so sick.

lent season.

begins tomorrow...

Some people get hooked on cigarettes, others on sweets, I get hooked on news. I probably check news sites about 10+ times a day. I think I'll probably be giving that up for lent.

Quick word: I always think it's funny when we "sacrifice" things only to fill that void with something else just as bad. The purpose of lent is to give up something so we can be reminded of his sacrifice and spend more time reflecting on Christ.

Point being, don't give up chatting, but fill that time instead wasting away in front of the tube.

the power of words.

I've always believed that words are powerful. I'm reminded of this everyday by the words of great thinkers in my textbooks, the words of our President Barack Obama, and the words of friends/peers like Ben Alisuag.

In case you don't know Ben, he's a sick spoken-word artist, a student at Penn and a great representative of the AA community. Check out this clip, (begin from 3:00 if you're impatient). He's the one on the left.

Come from behind victory?!

So a couple weeks ago I wrote a post about my friend's website Daily Gorilla. I told you to go visit often, but also to vote for my Haiku. That week many of you came out in huge numbers and I had a landslide victory to become Haiku King.

Since then, I've retained the title for the last few weeks, but it looks as though I may be dethroned this week by a good friend of mine from high school. All of the sudden, she's smoking me 31-17. Let's try to win yet another week with an incredible come from behind victory... PLEASE VOTE HERE.
