Blank
December 20, 2009
My pencil is ready.
My mind is set.
I press the pencil to the blank paper in front of me.
I know what I want to write, but no matter what I do the paper stays blank.
I want to get my words out of my mind and on to the paper, but my body won't let me.
I am forever and always silent.

haha nice everything huh? I really only play Zelda and LostinBlue and Hotel Duck:room215. Thats really it. Mostly the zelda though. :D Softball! COOL!!!!!!! Hahah I can't serve in that to hard!!! Sweet though! Uhm I take TKD- Tae Kwon Do. Alittle like Karate but not exactly at all. It's more about personal sterenght not "using other peoples" thinking about the moves in Karate they would only work if like 1-the person was around your size 2-it was set up perfecty position wise and 3-if they where stupid and couldn't see it comeing. Wich most people not stupid. But I digress. :) I also really like swimming I am REALY good at it (not to brag) lots of people say I should join a swim team. Wich would rock. But I think I tore my shoulder muscle so right now I can't do sports at all.... Really stinks. Non of the doc.s know whats wrong with me though. Kinda sad.

haha Thanks :D For reading it. Whatcha like best? I thhink I so far like the piece Blank you wrote :) Thanks for saying it was good, my Moms friend is like "oh well the twilight artical is a opinion so your not a author." Did people read it? Like it? Agree with it? Or get some thing from reading it? Yes, to any of these makes you a author. :P Then journalists would not be authors and they are!!!!! XD Yeah....Rants :D

It is hard to share. In a way it's also hard to write. Hah yeah it's the best writen cause people can relate to it and the emotion you put into it by having lived it. Have you read anything I put? Some f it's kinda personal. Not much of it is up yet though. Your works good though! Keep it up :)
