What moonsongs
Do you sing your baby?
What sunshine do you bring?

Who belongs
Who decides who's crazy
Who rights wrongs where others cling?

I'll sing for you
If you want me to
I'll give to you
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I go along
Just because I'm lazy
I go along to be with you

And those moonsongs
That you sing your baby
Will be the songs to see you through

I'll hear your song
If you want me to
I'll sing along
And it's a chance I'll have to take
And it's a chance I'll have to break

I'm in love with you
So in love
I'm in love with you
with you.

"Let's just be friends."

Tue, 08 Nov 2005 02:39:47 GMT

So I hear it again. And this time I wasn't even looking for a relationship. Well, maybe in the future, but not really now. I was interested. I wanted to see where it would go. I like him. But I wasn't asking for more. Not now.

Boys are so afraid to run the risk of a possibility of falling in love, in like, or being happy in a relationship. "I like you. I just don't want a relationship." If you did like me, you'd want something from me.

And the frustrating part is that I know you. I can't just blow you off because I know you are a good person. You are someone I'd like to have around, to know. Years apart doesn't change that. I knew it when I was young. I know it now.

Regardless, I'll try to play the friend role. We'll see how this goes.

Here you go, Danny.

Tue, 01 Nov 2005 04:00:21 GMT

For the past few days, I've been talking to this cool kid. He's kind of a dork, but he's still cool. He's kind of weird too. But he's cool and nice and cute. So I think I'm going to keep talking to him.

Explode a Moment

My sweaty hand rubbed the paper. My head hurt. Was it from what was written on it, or was it fear of her reaction? The paper felt heavy in my hand, carrying the burden of seventeen years. I could feel her eyes questioning me. She wanted to know what it said. She wanted to know what was so important that my sweat had already made it soggy. She couldn't wait any longer, and neither could I. I slipped the paper into her hand, unloading my burdens but weighing her down.

Shrink a Century

She was born to two parents so grateful for her. Years later, her sister joined them as well. She went through boyfriends and friends, boyfriends and friends. She finally found the boyfriend and friend that would be just as grateful for her as her parents were on the day of her birth.

Let's start over...

Mon, 17 Oct 2005 17:04:37 GMT

...and we'll meet again. And I'll say hello. And you'll say hello. And we'll shake hands. And you'll grab my heart from a word and a gesture. And a smile. But I won't fall. I promise I won't fall. And we'll talk. And we'll laugh. And you'll make me want you. But I won't want you. I promise I won't want you. And you'll talk more. And I'll listen to every word. I'll hang on every word. And I won't wish I could kiss you. I promise I won't wish I could kiss you. And I'll talk. And you'll laugh. And we'll like each other. And I'll like you. I'll like you. But I won't love you. I promise I won't love you. And we'll discuss, politics, religion, and baby names. But I won't picture us having babies. I promise we won't have babies. And you'll walk me home. And we'll still talk. And you'll tell me how you like me and how you want to hang out again. And I'll tell you how I like you and how I want to hang out again. And you'll hug me. And I'll hug you. But I won't want to kiss you. I promise I won't want to kiss you. I'll just fall all over again.

Being 21...

Mon, 17 Oct 2005 16:54:14 GMT

...it's not really all that different from 20.

I'm still the same person. I still hurt the same. I'm still just as happy. I still have the same friends. I still have the same loves. I still miss the same things. I still value the same things. I still want to be a good person. I still want to be loved. I still fall apart at the seams. I still feel like a child. I still love where I am but want to be somewhere else - with someone else.

On October 15th, I decided that October 16th was going to be different. On October 16th, I would be able to mend my broken heart. I would love being me. I would finally be decisive. I would find strength in myself. I would forgive myself for the mistakes I've made. Life would be different.

It's not. I'm still the same.

I go through this every year. I'm sure next year will be no exception.

Somewhere in Between

Fri, 19 Aug 2005 05:24:52 GMT

I can’t be losing sleep over this. No, I can't.
And now I can not stop pacing.
Give me a few hours. I’ll have all this sorted out.
If my mind would just stop racing...

'Cause I cannot stand still.
I can’t be this unsturdy.
This cannot be happening.

This is over my head but underneath my feet.
'Cause by tomorrow morning, I’ll have this thing beat.
And everything will be back to the way that it was.
I wish that it was just that easy.

'Cause I’m waiting for tonight,
Then waiting for tomorrow,
And I’m somewhere in between
What is real, and just a dream...
What is real, and just a dream...
What is real, and just a dream...

Would you catch me if I fall out of what I fell in?
Don’t be surprised if I collapse down at your feet again.
I don’t want to run away from this.
I know that I just don’t need this.

'Cause I cannot stand still.
I can’t be this unsturdy.
This cannot be happening.

'Cause I’m waiting for tonight,
Then waiting for tomorrow,
And I’m somewhere in between
What is real, and just a dream...
What is real, and just a dream...
What is real, and just a dream...

Music list
List six of your current favorite songs, and tag six people to do this too.

This shouldn't be too hard since it says "current" favorite...

1) Lifehouse "You and Me"
2) Mariah Carey "We Belong Together" (I know they play it all the time on the radio, but you have to learn to like it when that's what you hear all day at Camp Wannago.)
3) John Mellencamp "Jack and Diane"
4) Kelly Clarkson "Behind These Hazel Eyes"
5)
6)

That's it. I'm sorry. I really only listen to that Mariah Carey song and the stupid "Bananas" song because I really only listen to the radio at camp nowadays. (And the "Bananas" song did not make the cut because it really is what I said it is - STUPID!)

And the people that I tag are..........

1. Marty (Yes, he has a live journal, and yes, I know he's reading this.)
2. Mary Grace
3. Melissa
4. Vincent (He must still read these things.)
5. Jenna
6. Miss Jennifer Grabowski

Reflections of a High School Yearbook

Tue, 29 Mar 2005 23:28:04 GMT

The 2002 issue of Esuerc, L’Anse Creuse High School’s yearbook, was entitled “We Are…”. The yearbook tried to explain who the students of L’Anse Creuse High School were during my senior year. I know that I could not have determined who exactly we were during that year, but perhaps three years later I may be able to decipher it. Who was I? With whom did I attend school? What was I going through my senior year? Most importantly, how did my senior year of high school affect who I am now and what I am going to be?

On page 140 of the 2002 yearbook is where one can find me—in the middle of the page, with no caption, only my name, just like everyone else. From that picture, no one would be able to tell who I was during that year. Just eight pages later, however, one can see my picture again, on the page titled “Best of the Best”. There I was pictured with the other four valedictorians and the salutatorian. That is probably the page that tells the most about me; it tells my expected major in college—still elementary education—along with the activities in which I was involved. Even more, it tells one of my favorite quotes from the movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”: “If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it. Anything you want to, do it. Want to change the world? There’s nothing to it.” Among the other quotes of the other valedictorians on the page, mine sticks out; it is optimistic and idealistic in a childlike way, unlike the others. That is me—optimistic and idealistic. That is still me today. I pride myself on being that way.

Throughout the rest of the yearbook, one can see me in both candid shots and in photos associated with organizations. On the page called “We are Dreamers…”, I am “breaking it down on the dance floor” at the homecoming dance. Furthermore, I am pictured with the Student Council on the “We are Leaders…” page, with the Future Teachers of America on the “We are the Future…” page, and with the National Honor Society on the “We are Scholars…” page. Moreover, I am pictured as the Student Council President on the “Head of the Class” page that introduced the senior section of the yearbook. Additionally, I am mentioned on the “Remember When…” page, where seniors were asked to share highlights of their high school years. The page says, “Remember when…Jason Moore speared Kelly Walmsley in rugby…”—a fond but painful memory for me! Finally, I close out the yearbook along with one of my friends on Blue and White Day (our school spirit day). Thus, I was very involved in high school organizations. I was also always at school events; I could always be found at whatever sporting event was going on that Friday night and if someone ever needed me after school, the best place to look would have been in the school cafeteria working on some upcoming event. Overall, I was definitely a busy student throughout high school.

Nowadays, however, one would never know that I was such an involved and busy student. In college, I am not a part of any organization. In that respect, I am such a different person. So many people have asked me why I am not involved in college, and I really do not have a definitive answer. Perhaps after going nonstop for the four years throughout high school, I simply wanted to be a student. Maybe I was just burned out. Perhaps I just have not found anything in college to be passionate about like I was passionate about Student Council in high school. Perhaps I will never know the true reason. But I do know that I will never have another time in my life like the years I spent in high school.

Being so involved in high school provided me many opportunities to create friendships. Still, my best friend was only involved in one organization with which I was also involved, National Honor Society. My best friend was and is Roseann Moceri. Roseann’s life in high school was band, and she was so good at it. I was not, but I was good at supporting her in it. On the surface, no one probably would have put Roseann and I together as best friends. In fact, in our senior mock elections, Roseann was voted “Best Sense of Humor”, while I was voted “Most Serious”. How is that possible, then, that we could be best friends? I do not know, but something clicked between us, and I am so glad it did because Roseann is still a major part of my life. Many of the other people I became friends with have come and gone. Roseann has remained; she continues to be my best friend.

I am certain the halls of L’Anse Creuse High School were filled with faces that belonged to people who were not very popular, those who were not so well-known. I, however, had a problem determining those people and even more so, remembering a story to go with faces I did not recognize. Perhaps that difficulty arose from the fact that I thought I was a middle-of-the road student; I never felt like I was popular, but I was friends with those who were, and I never felt like I was “dorky”, but I was also friends with those who were. However, I can remember one girl that I wish others in my class had known better. Her name is Stephanie Calandro. I had the privilege of attending both L’Anse Creuse and the Macomb Mathematics Science Technology Center (MMSTC) with her. That means Stephanie was my only classmate with which I spent the entire school day. (I attended MMSTC in the morning and L’Anse Creuse in the afternoon.) In the senior mock elections, I was also voted “Class Genius”. It is true that I was valedictorian, but so was Stephanie. Stephanie was, in fact, much smarter than I was, and she even had a higher grade point average than I had. However, Stephanie was lesser-known than I was, so I received the award. I knew Stephanie deserved it, but I suppose popularity prevails even when it should not.

Glancing through the yearbook, many students only appear in their senior photos. The amazing thing about that is that I would not consider many of those students unpopular. Many of them were always present at school events, even if they were not officially involved in organizations. Many also worked for the school, taking tickets at games or working the grounds. That shows that only those involved in organizations are not the popular students. Popularity is not defined by involvement, although many popular students were involved.

Like many of the 2002 seniors at L’Anse Creuse High School and elsewhere, senior year was a difficult one for me. Socially, Roseann and I grew closer, but much of that was because it seemed everyone around us fell into drugs. Roseann and I clung to each other for support. Physically, I was in and out of the hospital. I was diagnosed with diabetes during my junior year of high school, and during my senior year, my diabetes raged out of control. I went into the hospital several times during my senior year, and I almost missed my graduation because of it. Both of those social and physical problems led to some psychological problems. I often cried because of my friends falling into drugs and because of the stress over school work that my hospital visits caused me. Even more so, I cried because I was scared to leave my two younger brothers behind when I went away to college. What I did not realize at the time, though, was that I still had Roseann, my health would improve, and my brothers are smarter than I gave them credit.

L’Anse Creuse High School, and specifically my senior year there, helped to shape the person I am today. There are many things I wish I could change about my time there, both in myself and in the school, but there are also so many things that I appreciate about it. L’Anse Creuse is the type of school in which I would love to teach. Just like me, it was middle-of-the-road—not an extremely rich school, but not an impoverished one either. The students were much the same way. I enjoyed much of my time at L’Anse Creuse, and I would similarly love to enjoy my years teaching. Thus, L’Anse Creuse was and is a part of who I am and who the students of L’Anse Creuse are. Just as the 2002 yearbook says: We are dreamers. We are scholars. We are the future.

Santa never went by St. Nick or Kris Kringle.

Santa's dead.
All the elves are mourning.
All the reindeer are crying.

But the presents will still come this year.
It doesn't matter that Santa won't deliver them.

Santa's dead.
And I never said goodbye.
And I never thanked him for the gifts.

And no one seems to know that Santa never went by St. Nick or Kris Kringle.
Except the elves, the reindeer, and me.

Has anyone ever read Possessing the Secret of Joy or Warrior Marks both by Alice Walker?

I was just wondering if they were good reads.

I hate how this summer turned out, but I am not looking forward to going back to school.

Welcome Back, Angela!

You thought you wouldn't get a poem,
But now I am so happy that you're home.
The last one was sad because you were away.
This one is glad because you come home today.
I'm as happy as flowers that grow in spring,
As happy as church bells that ring,
As happy as butterflies captured in a jar...
Wait...I'm much happier than those butterflies are.
I am happier than dogs running through a park.
I am happier than ghosts scaring kids in the dark.
So when you think about going away again,
Just think about how sad I've been.
(But now I'm happy that you're home if you couldn't tell.)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ROSEANN!

Had to start off with that!

Today Marty, Chad, and I went over Roseann's to celebrate her birthday. I had tons of fun. We played badminton, and apparently my backhand is okay, but I have no other game. Then we of course had mud. And then it was time for the Pistons game. No need to say much about that because I'm sure everyone knows.

Earlier today, I got a phone call fromm my boss at Camp Wannago. Apparently, he wants me to come in with Melissa and learn how to open and close because we will have more responsibilities this year, and then he wants us to take part in the interviews and have a say in who else gets hired. That's pretty awesome. Along with that, I get a 25-cent raise, so does that mean I've been promoted? Haha. I don't even know what my title is anyway. But I am excited about the more responsibilities because that means more hours and more money.

Oh, I found out my cousin Jennifer in Georgia has a live journal, so HEY JEN!

Oooooooooooh! That reminds me! I found an old family video of my dad's entire side celebrating my great-grandma's 68th birthday down in Virginia in 1988. It was hilarious. Now, I know nearly everyone knows about my mullet, but this tape is pure Walmsley/Kilcher Mulletville. Seeing everyone so long ago is just funny. It's just sad that the next time after my grandma's birthday that we were all in one place was for her funeral. But I was still happy I found the tape.

DANG HOLLIE!
