Miss Independent

You all have seen me go through my ups and downs, cleans and dirtys if you will. I'm sure you're thinking this will be another one of those things, and I know I've said it before, but I am changing. I was on the right track a month and a half ago, then it all went downhill when in all honesty I thought it was going uphill, because it was fun. I was more independent than I've ever been, I had learned not to depend on other for my own happiness because in the end I'd get hurt. Low and behold, I met a boy, Chad. We became good friends, partying, and having fun. At one point we fell for each other, knowing we were total opposites. Our only similarity being our independence. That must have been what brought us together because I now see nothing in this boy. We dated for a month, then it all came crashing down a few days ago. Someone told him I cheated on him, I didn't, so I told him I didn't. We broke up and he still doesn't believe me. I know I didn't, I have nothing to prove to him so I gave up arguing. Which for him I guess meant I did cheat. I don't believe in proving things I know are true to others, unless they are willing to try to believe. Now, four days later I'm sitting here telling him it's ok to show your feelings instead of blocking things out and letting them build up until you become psychotic. I have seen two of my cousins commit suicide from the very same thing, I may not be too happy with Chad at the moment, but I do love him and would never wish death upon him. I keep losing my train of thought. Now, after all this, after all the hurt I never want to feel again, I'm going back to being The Miss Independent everyone grew to like and love. I was happy, people around me sensed it and were happy also. I woke up this morning thinking like my old independent self, and i'm happy today. Right this second, I'm finally getting through to Chad and it's making me even more happy. I AM AN INDEPENDENT PERSON WHO DEPENDS ON NO ONE. And I'm proud of it.

No Regrets

Life..Wow. I'm not sure if it's going up or down, forward or back. I'm typically an organized person. For the last two months I've had no time to be organized, and I was loving it. I was finally living the typical teenage life I'd always dreamed of. The party scene with drugs, many firsts of everythings. It was great the lying, sneaking out, and suspence of what was going to happen next. I had money, the perfect boyfriend, and amazing friends. What I didn't know was that life was about to spin out of control. I got my hands on a drug I'd never tried..Ecstasy. I did my reading and researching on it, as with anything I do or try. I figured it'd be safe. Though it's not something I suggest for those who aren't ready to take a risk. You never know what's in X. I was the first in my group to try this kind. Later I found out it was heroine based. It was THE BEST experience of my life. I'll tell you how the trip went.
At about 1:35AM Saturday night, sitting in my cousins living room with Derick, my cousins boyfriend, and Chad, my boyfriend I decided to take the X alone since I couldn't convince my boyfriend to. I kept looking at the time wondering "is it ever going to hit me?" and "maybe it's some bull shit and it's not gonna hit me." After about thirty minutes of me repeatedly asking Chad to just take it he finally answered me with "I did baby." But he had just taken it when it started to hit me. Derick was talking when it hit me, honestly I have no idea what he was talking about. All I remember is watching his mouth trying to understand what he was saying. I could understand him and hear him, I just couldn't comprehend what he was saying. I felt dizzy, extremely tired, and light-headed. Then all the sudden Chad asked me what I was doing. I replied with "Nothing! What're you talking about?!" He then glanced at my hands saying "Baby? ..Baby?..Are you ok?" I then looked at my hands and realized I was rubbing them together then rubbing the couch then rubbing them together again. I answered him with a grin and a simple "Yeah, hun, I'm fine." I had the sudden urge to touch him..Not even in a sexual way really, but a sensual way. But it hadn't hit him yet, so I held myself back so he didn't think he was weird. Instead I got up and started walking around, drinking a ton of water. My cousin then started griping at ne not to drink too much water so I didn't get water on the brain, I tried to give her a hug even though she was yelling at me. I remember almost crying because multiple timesshe turned down my hugs. But I was just so happy. Next thing I knew Chad was standing behing me grabbing my waist. I knew it hit him. I was so dizzy and just wanted to dance, so I danced..to the music we didn't have. Chad was still at that stage where you just want to touch everything. I was past that and I couldn't be still. I just wanted to hug and dance. Chad and I walked outside then back in then back out then back in, I don't even know how many times. I was just so happy. We were getting crazy looks, and I was loving every second of it. I couldn't stop smiling. We sat down on the couch trying to listen to Derick. Every fewminutes I'd ask Chad if he was ok and he'd do the same. The answer every time from both of us was "Of course baby, I'm great. Yeah it's good. Wanna hug?" Then Derick stood up said something then threw some blankets and pillows in the bedroom saying there's a matress in there have fun. We just laughed at him like haha yeah right we don't wanna touch each other that bad..Pfft we ended up in the bedroom just laying there half-way naked talking. Rubbing eachothers backs and tummies. Again, not sexually, but sensually. Then we decided we were hot and wanted to do outside, where we ended up dancing and talking for an hour or two. Then back inside to the couch, then to the bedroom where we were back and forth from the bed to the couch in the livingroom until 6PM Sunday evening. Yes, we did have sex, but that wasn't the best part of it all. The best part was just being close, talking, and dancing. Not caring what everyone else thought. May I remind you, we were at apartments, so there were people watching us everytime we went outside. Let me tell you, besides getting saves, this was the best night I think I've ever had.
If you're thinking about doing it go ahead! But first take some precautions!
1. The main reason people die from ecstasy is cause by drinking too much water, which causes water on the brain. All you want to do is drink water. Don't!!! Have someone there who isn't taking it to watch how much water you drink. If no one is there to do that WRITE IT DOWN!
2. Read point number one again, it's really important.
3. Watch out for teeth grinding! It can cause some serious teeth damage, and a seriously sore jaw the next day.
4. Have fun and don't think sad thoughts or you'll have a bad trip, no fun!
5. Drink orange juice.
6. Techno or trance music is good.
7. Strobe lights are amazing.

In NO WAY am I telling you this drug is okay, nor am I encouraging you to use this drug.
But if you've made up your mind to do it, BE CAREFUL!

I love you kidds, please be careful in all you do.

God Bless!

The Purple Church Experience Part II

It's Halloween night and we'vo got nothing better to do than head back out to the mysterious Purple Church. My sister, Mike, and Chad didn't go this time. Chickens. Haha. We get there around 6 or 7 PM and realize it's too light to go, the people across the street would call the police because it looked suspicious. So we went to a supposedly haunted cemetery, the Memorial Gardens, I think was the name, where my sister had some ghostly encounters and found $160 lying on the ground the previous week. We passed the time by sitting on the concrete things they put the coffins in, until it got dark. When it became dark enough we went down the road and parked a few hundred feet away from the entrance to the Purple Church. Me, Craig, Josh, Alex, and Zack started making our way closer when a dog starts barking and growling at us. We shine our flashlights around in front of us trying to find it, when we found it we noticed something, it was running towards us. Needless to say we have never run so fast in our lives. We made it back to the trucks and stood there for a minute before we decided to go back and try again. This time since I was a little nervous Craig and i walked hand in hand a little way behond the others. The dog was no longer anywhere in sight. Then it comes out beside Craig and I, of course we ran as fast as we could back to the truck and jumped in. We decided to drive down and check on the others. We're almost caught up with them when Zack and Alex are running full speed at our truck, they pass our truck, run and jump in theirs and take off driving the other way. Josh is still walking a little farther so we were going to pick him up and leave when we see a flashlight coming out of the woods, and it can't be any of our friends. So me and Craig are kinda freaking out at that point. Then as I'm about to open the door to pull Josh in I see a older man in a white suit, with white hair, glasses and a dark hat come out of the woods. I pull Josh in and we start to drive away but then realize Zack and Alex had driven the opposite way. So we turn around and start driving towards the old man, the man then steps into the middle of the road and shines his flashlight at our faces and holds up a knife. He wouldn't let us past him. He starts walking towards our truck so we back up going 60 on a gravel road when it's pitch black outside. That wasn't smart but it was our only choice. Luckily we didn't hit anything and got turned around and sped away. I'm still not satisfied with what I know. I'm still planning on going out there, maybe I need some time first. I don't have any proof that it's "haunted" so I'm still seeking.
