the news just keeps on coming. the drowning feeling is back, something i can't control...the feeling that the world is collapsing on you, pressing down on your chest, slowly sucking the life out of you. i was told that it wasn't working out between us, and she told me i needed to leave. she wasn't kicking me out, but apparently i have issues...it makes me sound insane. i'm not insane, just hurt, and scared, and overwhelmed, and well, overworked. out of touch. i've been listening to old favorites. damien rice, sondre lerche, badly drawn boy, all artists from across the pond...maybe its a sign, i should just go, pick up all of my roots and transplant...there's nothing for me here anymore, everythings changed. i sit and cry everyday wondering what went wrong, then i get up and dry my tears and move on to class, and i put on my front, to let the world know i'm ok, but i'm not. do you see past the veil i hide behind? i feel myself opening up and being more receptive, but will it make a difference for where i want to go? i'm a lost sheep. |

things have got to change. but they seem to be constant. constant in sorrow, in tears, in anger, in not belonging. i'm not sure what to do anymore, or who to turn to. the person who i talk to the most wants something that i can't give them, and it saddens me that i don't have the courage to tell them. i have to drive to through the cities by myself on friday or thursday night, either way, its scary and no one will be there to help me through it. because i'm alone. i'm an island. |

so saturday i went out to dinner with Benny and his dad, and his dad's girlfriend, and her daughter, Annie. that was traumatic in itself, but apparently his dad think "i'm gold" sunday i worked all fricken day in grill, and it sucked ass so hard core. then i went home and watched the vikings almost win, but then they got an interception and we missed our slim chance to win the first game of the season...buggering tampa bay defense... my mom and i are in a funk again. oh well, somethings never change. and its so fricken hot in duluth...seriously, its fall....for me at least...lets have some fall weather. then i decided that i needed a change, albeit a small one it is but still...i changed my purse. its smaller and fits better in my backpack and i love it because my aunt got it for me in guatemala. and it has a tortuga on it. i don't care if i used spanish. i love spanish. so there. lol anyway, love you guys, and i miss you too! Jes. |

...how life can take a turn? i'm dating Benny, finally after months...almost a year. i feel like a horrible person though. its just wrong, and sad at the same time. i just feel like i'm stretched to my limits right now. i'm getting a cold, and i don't know how to act around Ben. its sad and strange and weird. J. |

ok, so guess who just got sick of her boyfriend? i swear its like a disease...i got out with them for a certain period of time...then, BOOM, Jes doesn't like them anymore. and the sad thing is, i don't even feel bad. this is why i'm scared to start anything with anybody else...maybe i'm broken on the inside. oy. and i'm currently not liking my mom right now either...its just a bad week...bad summer...bad school year....(i can just tell it will be)... oy. |

my brothers are over here, and rolling around on the floor next to me, doing kindergarten-like gymnastics...i wish i could warp back to their age for a day, they have it so easy, they don't even know. if i was ben's age again, i would tell someone how i felt about them...yes, yall, i regret not doing that. but. i also regret what i did this past april. the "bastardly act" wasn't directed towards me. i was probably the cause of it...i don't understand how i can feel so strongly about someone, then get so cold when i'm with them....its scary, and confusing. i love my boyfriend, he's one of a kind....sure he's going to be a military zombie this year, and for like the rest of his life, but god, i just can't even think about telling him that i'm unsure...because my visitor was late like almost by a week...and that episode i had earlier this week....i thought for sure it meant something serious, something that i would regret...which makes me absolutely sure that i don't want to do any fooling around for a long time...at least until i'm in a secure and mature relationship. i just get so confused. especially recently. with all of this new info i've found out from someone, it changes things, it sort of cleaned me for lack of better words. so dear friends, here i rest with disappointment and regret, collide, lying awake at night, cuz its too important... |

so yesterday morning, i woke up at 630 to get ready for work, and when i was brushing my teeth, i started shaking, and then there was a cold sweat that i had, my vision blurred, and i felt so faint...it scared the shit out of me. not to mention the stabbing pains in my gut that pretty much raped me all day. it sucked. then i got bitched out by my mom, because she doesn't like who i talk to. she said that if i keep on talking to this said person i would have to find another place to live...give me a fucking break. anyway, my boyfriend is pissed at me because i'm working tonight, instead of hanging out with him...seriously, i'm not in the mood for his pissiness....we can watch movies any night of the week...besides all he wants to do anyway is fool around...which i don't want to because i have a visitor for 5-7 days. grr...boys and bitchy girls...ugh. |

so i've been watching tv all day. this is a sad state of affairs. i come back into town to work, and they don't give me any hours. ugh. i may as well just go back over to the lake with barney, because at least he misses me. i've been hanging out with my mom, and i'm glad because we haven't seen each other all summer. and apparently my cell phone doesn't ring, what is up with that? i don't know what else to say. |

ok, so my driving habits aren't that bad are they? last night my mom tells me that they suck, and someone that i know hates getting into a car with me because of how i drive. that hurt. i've been clean for accidents since september of last year, that's almost a whole year. what a way to kick off the rest of my summer...um, not. so tell me something to cheer me up. i honestly would just like to curl up under a rock for the rest of my life...that's how great i feel today...go life....yeah, not. ok, i'll be cheerful, at least my friends still love me. |

the last few days have quickly flown by the worries i've had were forgotten but only temporarily i returned yesterday to pick up the pain that i left behind only to plan a way to escape the time is near, the waiting is almost done. things are looking up and my feet are firmly planted on the ground you said things were going to be different things really haven't changed except i have hope where once i had dismay i wish to leave behind my anger and put a stop to this disease the gloominess inside that's slowly taking over me. |

windswept that's how i feel sitting in front of the damn fan my hair is being gently blown into my face it makes me feel calm even though the tv shows pictures of another distaster, a sick baby, a monster fish i wish the fan, could blow my troubles away take away all the reasons why i dont care i need to care but i don't see a point. all my years are over, the classroom door is closing my future remains a question mark. i know what i want, but how do i acheive inner serenity the peace of wise men, and long ruled kings i want the calmness of an old woman in her prime who only worries about the day she dies the fact remains, that i'm so young and troubled by outer forces who can blame my longing for knowledge that remains out of my grasp. |

so i'm going to a counselor to try to help me cope my mom thinks i need to talk to get emotions out inside myself, i'm drowning my friends are at the surface screaming that they care but its only me who i can help and i'm frustrated with saying "i don't care" lack of sleep, and always down seem to be my new M.O. its sick, and sad, but i can't help the things i think of, or do. i long for a place distant and far and starry night, with warm breezes clearly not this place where i sit with a frown upon my lips a furrowed brow "this place suffocates and my heart yearns me on" words of a song held true and dear remind me of a person once held near but now a broken heart ensues and i cannot endure the pain i feel the pain that's shared with the one i still love. |

my mind is gone, but my body is still here in person... everynight i dream of the ocean, the waves crashing upon the shore lulls me to sleep. i hear the crunching of the sand underneath my feet as i walk along the beach in twilight, and the darkness is all around me. the only light is that from the moon and stars glinting off of the sea. far out i can see creatures on the water, and across the beach, there are shells of creatures from the sea... i can't wait for the day i finally get to be there...i lost my heart and soul to the ocean 2 years ago...i need to go back to be whole. |

i'm dying to do something different. i want to change, to leave something behind and start something new. all that's here are memories that are old and full of anger. the lives here are wonderful but affected. i'd love to go to the east coast and just be there...with the ocean. a new start, a new area, a new location. a new person. if i leave, don't worry, i'll be in maryland. meet me in maryland...meet me there. |

prom was this weekend. and everything felt complete. the happiness was there to share, with the smiling faces and the loving words. the gyrating bodies, and sweaty dance floor is a memory in itself...something that could have possibly been better, but none the less, absolutely fun. i feel so in love, like not a thing could go wrong. i'm high on a cloud looking down in the past at myself...a girl who almost couldn't go on. she was so different than the person i am now. sad and depressed, she couldn't take what was before her. but everything's changed. she no longer harbors the hate she had for the man who broke her heart...she pities him instead. she's no longer forlorn or broken on the inside. the man of her dreams fixed her perfectly. the sun shines everyday in my heart even if it rains...and the storms don't scare me anymore...they remind me of a new beginning...a time for lovers to come together in peacefullness while the world is in turmoil. the love that i hold...the love of millions around the world can't be broken... and the song i think of...when i think of chris...is simply sweet...and true. This is the first day of my life Swear I was born right in the doorway I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed They're spreading blankets on the beach Yours is the first face that I saw I think I was blind before I met you Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been But I know where I want to go So I thought I'd let you know That these things take forever, I especially am slow But I realized how I need you And I wondered if I could come home I remember the time you drove all night Just to meet me in the morning And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed You felt as if you'd just woke up And you said, "This is the first day of my life I'm glad I didn't die before I met you Now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you And I'd probably be happy" So if you want to be with me With these things there's no telling We'll just have to wait and see But I'd rather be working for a paycheck Than waiting to win the lottery Besides, maybe this time it's different I mean I really think you like me |
