On my own note, I just took my last final yesterday. French, which I most likely aced. But the real triumph is with my History final. I am in an AP class; tenth grade was Modern/European. I originally flourished as a student, but the pressure was on. If you couldn't maintain a B- average, you were sent packing to the basic class. History has been my passion. I didn't want to see that happen. Anyway, I digress. My teacher began to inexplicably start to pick at me, and test me to see if I could whether his "beatings". I struggled in the third semester, then bounced back in the fourth. It was all down to the final. I either passed, or was sent packing. Not even the best students in the school could do well on those tests. I said to myself, "If I could pass, then I will leave this year with my head held high". I was prepared for the worst.
Test time. I managed to finish the test in the allotted two hours, a triumph enough in itself. The next day, the results came; I not only finished the test; I aced it. This is a triumph in its most basic form; I aced one of the hardest tests in my school. It was a miracle; it was the result of hard work; it was...the true birth of a History student, and a step closer to seeing my dreams of becoming a college History professor come true. I rejoiced; I could have come home with eyes red and soaking in their tears of happiness

Thanks, my parents started to jokingly call me "professor" when I told them about the grade.

Give me pain. Give me pain. Give me pain. Good goth then, PLEASE give me pain. I want pain. Pain. Pain. Pain * begins bleeding tears from face, they fall down upon the ground, faithless, hopeless, like the imagine of Mary bestoying her child, Jesus, upon the body of their father. I weep in sorrow, lusting for pain for such loneliness is but the only thoughts running through my mind. Blood stained tears dripping from my eyes, my skin, my hair, my hands, I still lust for pain; for rejected so many times in this pit of loneliness and left behind in such a land, how I wish for the pain. The pain how I wish...still weeping as the glass of innocence shatters like Mary's tears. The tongue of the demon licking the tears off of my face, and his tongue fulfills my lust for pain; yet I feel so lifeless...so numb...*

I just became seasick.
I'm nowhere near the sea.
I went on a whale watch like 4 hours ago.
Yay, delayed reactions!

I found Jesus. He told me that this was just an illusionary dream and never have we fallen from grace, God's love is eternal and we are his perfect and holy thoughts.

I do not condone the use of drugs. I just hate the hypocrisy of this whole "war on drugs" bullshit and the fact that the government thinks it can tell me/people to do all these legal drugs (pills, liquor, nicotine, sugar et. al.) and not to smoke pot. :@
