Help in the New Year

     First thing.....MERRY BELATED CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! I hope all of you had an amazing day. 

    So, 2012 is coming up very soon. Everyone has a resolution they are thinking about. Changing yourself for the better for the new year, right? Most of you know we are still a fairly new blog (started in August), and I have two amazing writers working alongside me. I couldn't ask for better and harder working girls than these two. However, we still need to be put on the charts. Though they are hard workers, I am looking for more. If any of you write or know anyone who writes, please leave a comment on our Facebook page or contact me at freefiction.lpz@gmail.com. Everyone will be considered and at the end of January, results will be posted here and on Facebook. We will appreciate it greatly. See Facebook for requirements of anyone interested.

                                  LOVE YOU ALL!

Holiday Gifts

I love and hate that my birthday is the same month of Christmas but this year I received a lot for both and it is not even Christmas day yet. For my birthday, I got to pick out a new mouse and keyboard which I love so much. Last week, I got my Christmas gift; my dad got me a new but used computer and it is wonderful. The computer is oh so quiet as well and that will take getting used too haha. The graphics are wonderful now and that makes my PC games not lag anymore so that is the best part of it all. My old computer was extremely old but my dad upgraded things every few years so it was not completely outdated but I would say I had it for at least 7 years. It will be my back up computer, just in case something happens. Best birthday/Christmas gifts I have ever gotten, besides my Kindle I got on my last birthday.

One other thing, Holidays can be very stressful too. I hate trying to figure out what to get my family for Christmas but this year I knew exactly what everyone needed.

Happy Holidays everyone!

I was actually thinking these words as a song in my head... but lyrics all start as poems anyway I suppose.

And I ponder...

What my worth

In this world

Will become

In the light

Of my future.

And my agony...

Has a way

Of revealing

My pain

To the ones

I adore...

All the light

In my life

Is removed

By my fear

And the paralyzing

Way I find my soul exposed...

To those

I cannot hear.

Paint me a life.

I turned 19 Saturday; I am so happy. These last two test I have taken in my math class could have been better but I am so busy playing Minecraft literally 24/7 that I did not study as well as I should of studied. Plus, I was half asleep on the one I took Monday because I could not sleep that night. Ever since I started playing in Servers last month, I cannot seem to get off. It is terrible, I basically have no life. As you can tell, I made this late because I was playing Minecraft and forgot it was Wednesday. Nice one. These past few weeks I have tried to make some plans with friends to hangout this Christmas, mainly friends I have not seen since we graduated but I need to get together with others too. It is hard for me to stay in touch with people because I never text and barely get on Facebook anymore. I just usually update my status. Oh the down falls of being in college.

Playing with Acrostics

"Sadness"

Serenades in the dark; the

Audience is a dead girl. Her bones

Dance a jig of

Never-ending sorrow, awaiting her

Entrance to a life of eternal peace that will never come.

Sad is she, for her one and only love

Sings from the clouds above as he floats on wings that she will never have.

"Unrequited"

Underneath the cloak she's shrouded in lurks a

Number of chambers housing despair and loneliness.

Rescuing her is futile, for her earthly body is

Empty; it is only a shell. Her soul remains

Quiet, waiting

Urgently for the love she'll never get back. It

Itches up and down her spine; she doesn't move.

Terror comes from her parents as long as she's still, an

Endless dark tunnel with no light at the end. The

Devil has already claimed her sodden spirit.

Sorry I posted a day late!!!

Individuality is Bliss

I am a bad person.....I'm posting two days LATE!

       Anyway, I've noticed a lot of girls recently who dress, act, and talk the same way as everyone else. Why? I think it's because they think if they act the same as someone else, they will have lots of friends. Acting like someone else will get you no where. If you act like someone that isn't you and you make tons of friends, are they really your friends? Think about it...if you act like someone else, people wont like you for who you really are, they will like you for the person they think you are. The person they know isn't the real you. Is it worth it to have a million friends who like you for something you're not, or one friend who loves you for who you are?

                                                                          BE YOUR OWN PERSON

        If you want to scream at the top of your lungs, do it! If you want to run around for no reason, do it! Do it because you want to! Not because someone tells you to! You're beautiful in your own way, don't let people tell you otherwise. 

                                                INDIVIDUALITY IS BLISS!!!!!!!!!!
