Online journal entry:
January 21, 2003
So I was wondering about chasing, and I’m trying to answer the question: “Do I chase or not?”
At what point do you stop swallowing your pain? Is it okay to do so in the first place? Is it okay to hide the bitter look on your face as it slithers down your throat? Is it selfish to?
Do you allow yourself to stand in the way of someone...

so today I got bored of my writing styles. so I changed a particular thing and I like it all a whole lot more now. I changed the way I write my a’s. I used to write them like this, but I have since decided that that is way too easy. now I write them in this fashion.

No on Prop 8
October 24, 2008

California Prop 4
I received my California General Election Official Voter Information Guide a week or so ago. I really haven’t had the chance to really read through all of them and decide on which way I was going to vote.
