			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;"> Well, I haven&#8217;t been here in a while. I totally lost my camera sooo I won&#8217;t  be getting a new one until next summer. I&#8217;m not <em> too</em> torn up about it since I had pretty much stopped using it, only taking a couple of pictures a month. I have my eyes on a Canon Rebel XT or a Canon Rebel Xti. I did do the film thing for a couple of weeks, and I LOVE the atmosphere that film gives to a photo, but it&#8217;s just to expensive to keep up. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">OH! I finished <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Diary/Chuck-Palahniuk/e/9781400032815/?itm=1&amp;bnit=H&amp;bnrefer=HOMEPAGE">Diary</a> by Chuck Palahniuk. Such a great story! I highly recommended if you&#8217;re into art and suspense. I started <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Twilight/Stephenie-Meyer/e/9780316015844/?itm=1&amp;bnit=H&amp;bnrefer=HOMEPAGE">Twilight</a> by Stephenie Meyer just on Wednesday and I&#8217;ve already read 300+ pages of the book. It&#8217;s so good I can barely put it down. And when I&#8217;m done with Twilight, I&#8217;m thinking I&#8217;ll probably start on <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Kite-Runner/Khaled-Hosseini/e/9781573222457/?itm=2&amp;bnit=H&amp;bnrefer=HOMEPAGE#TABS">The Kite Runner</a> by Khaled Hosseini <em>or</em> <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Life-of-Pi/Yann-Martel/e/9780156030205/?bnit=H&amp;bnrefer=HOMEPAGE">The Life of Pi</a> by Yann Martel.  If anyone has any recommendations for good novels just let me know!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p class="blogsubject" style="margin:auto 0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">(a piece I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed writing. <span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Wingdings;"><span>J</span></span><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;"> </span>)</span></p>
<p class="blogsubject" style="margin:auto 0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">I saw the sunrise in his eyes, and felt the sunset in his kiss. Hypnotizingly he made me retreat to his room. Crack-addict mattress covered in his dried tears. He spends his nights reading expired love notes from past false lovers, but admires my depth like the leagues of the ocean. He sleeps with his doors unlocked for me. Leaves his windows opened for me. He hopes that one day he will get the world back by speaking his words through his mic and in between beats. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">He tastes like pure morning dew with a touch of honey. His eyes so rare, not just of the color but I see a star that twinkles in and out of sync whenever we lay together. Silence is nothing but a beautiful essence of stillness and comfort. Incense burns in the background and the lights are turned off, but the firery sunset keeps the room lit with a dark orange. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">Love spills out of each of us as we kiss, drowning in each others passion, but not wanting to come up for air. Yes, it&#8217;s just that good. We make love to single body parts alone, trapped into euphorias beyond the sky&#8217;s limit. He tasted my brown sugar and developed a sugar rush from the love that overflowed out of me. <span> </span>Jealous eyes taunt us because they feign for a love so unheard of like ours. It tips the axis of the earth. Our heat between each other exceeds the temperature that engulfs the room on colds nights. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">Our faith in each other holds us tight together, but detaches our selves from the world. We beg to be submerged into a galaxy, blinded by the fact that love is dangerous, but the shooting stars that immerse us urge us to not be afraid. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">So, we keep on going. Passion taking us higher, higher and higher&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">Until we collided with the stars and disintegrated with only constellations being the single thing left of our existence. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Tahoma;">And we love it. </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;"><br />
It was dawn and I couldn’t sleep, so there I was. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><br />
<span style="font-family:tahoma;">Each molecule of my breath made a crop circle onto the glass window. And as I stared out into empty space, a light strip of sunrays stayed static at the horizon. My fingertips touch droplets on blades of grass and attach themselves to my skin feeling as if they belonged there. The fleshy soil of the earth stuck to the soles of my feet, and to the soul of my being. I belonged to the earth, as it belonged to me. Each of us a prisoner, and the universe was master. The stars begun to flicker out like neon lights and the sun became territorial over the sky. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;">My house smelled of melted candle wax and increasing despair. So many filled moleskins everywhere tell stories, beautiful lies, and ugly truths. They stay wide open with coffee stains on the edge of the pages. I bask in its aroma and it slowly escalates into ambiguity. Ink blotches on the inside resemble blood that dripped from wounds of my mind. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;">I pierced myself onto the floor trying to figure out where everyone went. The weatherman on TV said we would look forward to sultriness with a chance of euphoria. That made me think of you, inevitably. Playing hide and seek silently in the back of our minds. Behind everything, in every corner, every nook, we inhaled the secrets of each other and then clashed like waves on rocks until we disintegrated into the letters of words in my moleskin. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;">The sun laid itself softly on my body, hitting my bones ever so gently. I drank room-temperature green tea from a Styrofoam cup left over from last night and made myself a cocoon out of a blanket.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;">I couldn’t help but to wonder about the footprints that started in this very living room and faded out the door. I remember it was the first time you came to my door with your heart in your hand, chest still heaving, everything still worked. Your eyes glazed over with tears thick as candle wax.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;">“I’m trying not to fall apart,” you told me. I took the beating heart, my two hands holding life. “Just make it quick,” you said, becoming cyanotic. You lay on your back and I attached valves, configured arteries, and realigned veins. With my tired hands I stitched you up with confidence. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;">That was you. You penetrated yourself into my life and you’re here to stay, but I still miss you.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8.5pt;"><span style="font-family:Tahoma;">I stood myself up, broke through the sun’s rays and drowned myself in the humidity. The wind blew my hair across my face like brushstrokes fading off a canvas. I stretched my arms up to the sky and rain decided to fall in alleviation. The universe sent me an invitation. I knew <em>someone</em> wanted to see me. The fingertips of the sun took my hand and whisked me away into zenith, and I saw you on the way up. My body clashed with the atmosphere and I fizzled out leaving particles of stardust behind, and in an instant, I was gone.</span></span></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><span style="font-size:xx-small;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;">So from xanga, to livejournal, and blogspot, here I am. I think it sucks that I can&#8217;t make an original theme, but that&#8217;s okay, my words are original enough; that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m here anyway.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size:xx-small;"><span style="font-family:tahoma;"><br />
I decided to go to the bookstore today and get my book and hangout with my buddy some. I bought <em>Diary </em>by Chuck Palahniuk. I&#8217;m so excited to read it. Actually, I had started reading it when I was on break from work at Barnes and Noble one day, but then the break was over (and reality came back) and I had to put the book back on its home on the shelf while I had to walk away from it; so sad ::tear::. So, I got around to buy it, finally. I&#8217;m gonna start reading it this evening.  I&#8217;m glad I started back reading. Maybe that&#8217;s what I needed back in my life; becuase I was feeling a bit lost with myself and something felt like it was missing, and I found out what it was: reading. Is it Friday? It is, and I&#8217;m spending the remainder of it reading. I don&#8217;t need to go out, hunny. Just give me a good book or a deep conversation. </span></span></p>
