wicker.

hello to all. i'm in ontario, in a small town of Exeter. i am on my dad's friend's computer because i am desperate. she's very nice to me and my sister and i appreciate her letting us use her computer.
so as most of you know i broke up with my boyfriend. he got incredibly dramatic and it killed me inside. though part of me knew that they were just words of no consequence, but another part was scared of him. scared of his capacity, of his ability to make my life hell. i dont know what he would do and that saddens me. seven months of love and i cant even predict what is truth and what is overexaggeration. i feel like i dont know him at all. i cant predict him, soothe him or abate him. when he gets upset i stand on the sidelines, teary eyed. and because i try and fix everything because i cant stand for people to be upset, i become distraught myself because i am helpless to him. seven months of this, over and over, along with the disapproval of friends and family, the lies and secrets i cant seem to escape, and his flip flopping emotions, these seven months have been incredibly hard on me. i could write millions of parishable words on this subject, god knows i have the emotional baggage to do it, but something is stopping me. perhaps my blissful unawareness, my wish to escape the pain until it settles. if i write and write i will stir up the feelings from the bottom of the pond. muck will rise and cloud my happiness. i know it will bite me in the ass if i ignore it, but at the moment i do not care. i've decided to make a comprimise with myself. i do not express myself through my own words, but through those of songs. i went through my library and found all the songs that relate to my given situation and i put them in a playlist. now i can listen to them and come to terms with my anger, my sadness, and most of all my heartbreak.
here's the list:

All I want- Joni Mitchel
Too much to ask- Avril Lavigne
The Waiting- Tom Petty
Happy Ending- Mika
Babe I'm Gonna Leave You- Led Zeppelin
Hope You Never- Tom Petty
Only Love Can Break Your Heart- Neil Young
Love Is Everything- K.D. Lang
All or Nothin'- Tom Petty
Both sides now- Joni Mitchel
Trippin on my own Tears- Ringo Starr
Love is a Long Road- Tom Petty
Saving us- Serj Tankian
Potential Breakup Song- Aly& A.J
Rhino Skin- Tom Petty
I am a Rock- Simon and Garfunkel
Tomorrow-Avril Lavigne
Only a Broken Heart- Tom Petty

if any one is at all curious to know how i feel, listen to some of these songs. especialy tomorrow by Avril. its uncanny.

It's good to let music show how we are feeling. Sometimes it's the only way we can even figure out what were feeling because we can't put the right words to the situation.

neighborhood nights

I feel like somewhere along my life there was a shift. Suddenly nothing was for fun any more, it was all necessary. Suddenly I'm bothering with what others think, afraid to link any connotations I deem negative to my being. Why do I care what people I've never met, who'll forget they ever saw me, think of me; this obscure stranger in their peripherals. It's a warped sense of mind and place, seeing the space around me in my mind's made up ways. So I stray away from everyone, isolating myself unwittingly, turning them against me. Self fulfilling prophecies, I succeed in creating this reality. I need to break free from my mind's mentalities, with which negativity has propelled me. So I've started a new sport. I call it neighborhood night dancing. Donning headphones and heading out alone to the empty streets as the city sleeps, and moving to the beat. Letting it compel me towards a freedom long gone missing. Letting go is an art. Complete release is a tough ...

I dread human contact. I absolutely hate it. I hate having to think of something to say, hate having to feign interest and sympathy. It's a stressful situation and I don't even know why. I guess it's the culmination of all my antisocial tendencies over the years. Once you get into a habit it gets harder and harder to change as time goes by. I've always been the shy one, the quiet one. The exception is my friends. I'm talkative and at ease with the people I like. I love my friends and I love having friends, but I dread making them. It's like it's too much effort to be worth it. All the awkward getting to know eachothers and stuff, I'd rather just avoid it completely. But it's getting me into trouble. People think I'm arrogant, too good to talk to them. Or that I hate them. Such is the case with my mother. She's been living at her parent's house, and so I rarely see her. That suited me fine, because less interactions the better. So whenever...

I looked back at blog entries, and even though the subject matter was less than pleasant to be reminded of, it was still good, I'm glad I have written reminders so I have points of reference to gauge my growth. And I've come far. I often feel like I've had three stages in my life. The first was with Brent, and though I was a newborn in love's eyes, I soon grew to an extremely old age. My heart was always cracked and my spirit became dulled. I became clogged with darkness, became tired and dragged myself through the days. But I never stopped. I stubbornly sacrificed myself each day for someone whom I thought it was going to help. I was wrong. The first day of my second stage was the day I stopped caring about him and finally focused on myself. I was free, and I was drunk with it. Too drunk. I dove into something that made me happy, too quick. I soon realized there were other ways to get hurt. this stage wasn't that defining, though I began to learn to take things as ...
