I hate to admit it..

I hate him.
There is just so much passion to this. Too much passion to this. I felt like this once before, but not this intense. I don't know why I feel like this, like a helpless girl. I'm supposed to be strong and get through this. I am supposed to have the heart of steel. The heart that never loves. I hate how this is coming to be.
I blame him.
Or at least, I would love to blame him. Blaming him would just make all of this so much easier for me. I would be able to breathe without having to think. I would be free. But no, that would be way too easy. In a way it is his fault. If he wasn't...him than this would have never happened. So there. There is a damned [bad] good reason to why it's his fault, not mine.
I miss him.
Without meaning to. I try to refocus and not think about him. There is no point to missing him. He lives there and I am here. But when I don't talk to him for a while or when he says that he is going to talk to me later, than I end up waiting for him and missing him when he doesn't. Call me pathetic, because I am.
I _ _ _ _ him
Go ahead and laugh, I dare you. See what happends. Call me a pathetic loser and I will acknowledge that because that is what I am. A pathetic loser.

Books Books Books

So I have had a chance to read a few amazing books. One on them being Wings by Arprlynne Pike. She is an amazing author and her writing wow! The book is about a girl who is different from everone else and turns out to be something unexpected to her. It is a book with romance, mystery, and adventure. :D
So make sure to check it out!
So while some of you may think this is a pointless blog I do not.
Books are the best thing to ever been brought to us and they provide so much for everyone! They offer an escape to a wonderful place.

Peace and Love,
Nico

July 1st

Today my friends is July 1st (yes I am pretty amazed about this myself). I mean, where did the time go? A little while ago it was June and I was out of school. I had just gotten out of school. But now, my fate. July 1st. July is supposed to be a big month for me. So many things going on, so many events. Gah! It's going to go by so fast!

This month includes [in order, or at least that is my goal]:
July 1st: Canada Day. Now why am I celebrating it? Well why NOT? That's what I say.
Another thing today; My Chemical Romance released 'The Black Parade is Dead' a year ago today. It's insane how so much time went by. O . O Absolutely amazing.
July 7th: All Time Low releases 'Nothing Personal' officially. I am beyond stoked. Let me just say that.
Also, Paramore's first single off their new album 'Brand New Eyes' is out today. [Do I know the name of the single off the top of my head? No. I do know it starts with an 'I' though. Its a start.]
Also, Synyster Gates [Brian Haner Jr.] birthday today. Woooo Syn.
Also, Forever The Sickest Kids release the Deluxe Edition of 'Underdog Alma Mater' is out.
July 15th: Ray Toro's birthday. Happy Birthday Ray!
AND 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' is out in the theatres! Can you say "OH MY BOB! YAY!"? I can.
July 11th-18th: Summer Camp. My first EVER summer camp. Sure it is a Leadership camp. But I cannot begin to tell you how stoked I am to be going. That week is going to be the best week ever. Thats for sure.
July 26th: WARPED TOUR! Need I say more besides the fact it's my first Warped? Omb 50 bands 5 stages. AllTimeLow. Ugh. It is going to be one amazing day! Needless to say I will be dead for two days. Oh well. So freaking worth it.

Yes. That will be my month. Of course add work, some spending time with friends, and other random activites. It is going to be one month that I will never forget and never want to forget. You don't even know how stoked I am going to be about it. But once it is over, the closer to school I get. Downside major.
Though here I am so stoked about the events in this month, but I need to slow it down a bit I think. Enjoy each day at a time I think. Though how can I with so many events? Haha.

Peace and Love,
Nico

PS-Anyone else catch that I didn't put the 4th of July [at least I don't think I need to explain why that date is important. . .] in there and I put July 1st: Canada Day in there? All it did was make me laugh to know I didn't include that and I did Canada. Actually it made me LOL. Not going to lie. . . . Nothing Personal.

Mothers Day.

I hate this day. Let me just start with saying that. Now, why I hate it is a different reason. I am not one of those teenage mothers who gave their child up for adoption because they couldn't take care of them. That is not the reason at all. I have not been pregnant ever.

I hate today because it is mothers day. The day to celebrate mothers everywhere. But what is the point when you barely speak with your mother? When you talk to her once a month when she wants you to babysit and that is all she wants you for. To be a babysitter. Watch your other half-siblings so she can go out and be a drunk.

A mother is someone who should be there for her kids. Be there and call them because she misses them. Say that you lover your child with every fiber in your body. Make sure they are OK and alive. Be with them to the end on things and help with their upbrining.

My mother does not fit that. Sure I love her but I don't ever talk to her. We used to be so close and now this. We don't know what is going on in each others lives. No idea what the other is doing, ever. It is a sad thing. I want to make it all better, but I can't be the only one wanting to make a relationship with the other.

So, I vow, that the day I become a mother I will not abandon my child, ever. I want to give life to a son/daughter and be there for everythgin. Be there for them.
I just hope I do not fail them as my mother failed me.

Peace and love,
Nicollette

Invisible Children

So I was asked by Brittany, last minute, to go to an Invisble Children screening thing where they would be showing a movie made just months ago. Of course I wanted to go, I have been interested in the Invisible Children and have wanted to learn more about them. So I basically cancelled everything last minute and went, despite the fact it was at a church.

The movie was powerful and honestly had me crying. To know that kids younger than me who are only 9-13 years old are being abducted from their homes at night to go fight in a war that wasn't there fault. Being forced to see the horrors of war at such a young age. It's horrible. The war in Africa has been going on for 23 years. Too long. Tonight I saw children younger then me carrying guns and being ordered to see what most never have to see ever. It shocked me and I had no clue what was going on. Until tonight. It started with three men with a passion to make films who brought us to see what those children are going through. They showed the world what is happening.

And now we need to do something. Help these children who shouldn't have to worry about sleeping at night because of fear of being taken from their homes at night. Why put anyone through such horrors?

Anything and everything can help.
Even with a purchase of a ten dollar hat.

Like the one right over there (sorry the pic is dark) ----->
Peace and Love,

Text talk.

Honestly, I don't think anything annoys me more then talking in text. For example:
"Yo. Wuz up?"
"Nm. u?"
I mean really. Why can't you just spell out your damn words? I don't see the huge problem is typing out your words. Even over IM.
I'm just going to let you know now that it's not cool when you actually have the time to do it properly.

I honestly don't know why it bothers me so much. I used to do it too, I am as guilty as you. But I converted and I immensly enjoy spelling out my words. By doing that you look smarter when your IMing or texting.
OK, so those are those occasions when we all type those 'novels' persay to our buddy. We don't feel like making it all perfect and junk especially when texting. Your thumbs hurt! Or you run out of character space or whatever. Perfectly understandable.
Your only dumming yourself down. Good job.
So do me a favor and SPELL OUT YOUR DAMN WORDS.
Not that hard.
Thank you and have a lovely day. =]

Peace and love,
Nico
