You're at the top of my lungs

After a while of digging, I found this little diddy scribbled on a used napkin. It is clearly written by Benji Madden. After all, he is emo.
*Clears throat* Ahem.

"Hold the spotlight steady
We wouldn't want your cakeface to run.
It's taken you hours to get ready
After two months in Paris, we've only just begun!

Take me to a place where stars are blind
So I can be with you forever
If your kis could kill
I'd die a thougsand times for another
(Or maybe give up eyeliner)

Because without you there's no runways
Nor a cheesy movie about wax.
Cupid shot me hard this time
I'm lovestruck by your smile
You're my medication (I'd have to be crazy)
If only dreams lasted for three months in Paris."

I have way too much time on my hands.

No, seriously. I'm acutally just writing this because I want to get my thoughts sorted out and organized, and it seems more real this way. This won't be funny, and it won't be entertaining. As a complete warning, stop reading this.

So, I'm wondering if I have skin cancer. It's unlikely, but still a lingering possibility in the back of my mind. I have a collection of these dark, red spots on my skin, all in one place. They're about a 1/4 inch long each, and there are a bunch of them, but all in the same place. I've had them since the summer, and it seems like there's more now. I'm probably just messed up, but who knows?

As a teenager, I doubt that I have it. Hell, it's probably just something normal with my skin. But I'm also one of those completely and overly paranoid people who will take a theory and twist it into the worst thing imaginable, and freak about it until I'm proven wrong.

I'm going to try make an appointment at the dermotologist soon. And I definately need to learn how to spell.

Love Liz

This weekend has been completely amazing. Today was almost as good as yesterday. I've spent the better part of the past 48 hours outside, and it makes me feel wonderful. Today I took my dog for a walk, taking pictures along the way. That lasted about an hour before she got tired and we had to go home. After I ate lunch (I ATE LUNCH! Well, almost. I had an apple, which counts. But ANYWAY,) I went back outside again, still with my camera. I've taken a billion and three pictures, but I don't want to post them all yet. I'd want to make them last through the week, incase I don't get a chance to go out again. I have two up already, and I might consider posting a few more if anybody wants to see them.

Surprisingly, I didn't touch any pot today. Being 4-20, I was invited to a bunch of places just to smoke. I didn't, and I feel like I spent my time better than I would have if I had gone. You can't get how high I'm feeling with any other drug but sunshine.

It makes me a little sad to think of having to go back to school tomorrow, but not enough to bring my mood down even a tiny bit. I'll still get to see my boyfriend and my friends, and I'll still have art and gym and rugby, and I'll still get to go outside during lunch.

So, here's to seeing what tomorrow brings.

Ps, I wore sunscreen today! My burn from yesterday is almost non-existent! WHOOOO!!!!!!

Hey, Mr. Sun! It’s me, Liz, remember? It’s been a while since I’ve seen your smiling face.

It’s great to see you, Mr. Sun. It’s been too, too long. I was almost starting to believe that you were going to stay hidden behind the clouds forever.

Today was pretty close to perfect, which is something that doesn't happen very often. I would say it was completely perfect, but my hair kept flying into my face from the wind, so I had to knock off a couple points.

I went to my boyfriend’s house today, but we were never really in his house. First we went to the park and we sat on the swings for a while, just talking about nothing and everything. Then we went for a walk, before laying on the ground on a hill with your smiling face keeping us warm for hours. There weren’t any clouds out so we couldn’t look at them, but I can only think of one word to describe today, and that word is bliss.

So, I have fantastic news. I found my yellow Fall Out Boy shirt yesterday. I HAVE NOT SEEN IT SINCE LAST JUNE! So, here's the story:
It was really hot yesterday, and I had just gotten home from rugby tryouts, and I still had an electric blanket under my sheets from the winter. So I was all "okayyyyy, I'ma take it off, yo". And as I lifted my two matresses apart, I saw it. Sitting there, looking quite majestic, was my bright yellow Honda Civic Tour t-shirt. It was amazing. I cried when I found out I lost it last summer, and I've been ripping apart my house on a regular basis since then.
When I pulled it on, it was wonderful, and like hugging an old friend. I am wearing it as I type this. The orange and blue polka dots are smiling up at me, and I am smiling back.

My heating blanket is still on my bed. It lays there, forgotten. I probably won't remember to take it off for another six months.

Love you baby maybe?

I'm not dead! I can't believe it, can you? Yesterday and today in rugby tryouts were just running, which is one of the things I do best. I actually lead the runs both days, so I might have an average chance of making this team. They promised that they would start pounding us into the ground later this week, and they'll continue onto next week.

Fun, fun, fun.........

On that note, I'm going to sleep. It's only 9:53, but I am exhausted, and I still need to fine-tune a few lyrics before bed for my friend Sam's/my band thingy. We don't have anything recorded yet, but we're getting there.

Love Liz

Ps, HAPPY APRIL 8TH!!!!!!!!!!!

This might possibly be the last time I get to write a journal. I'm probably going to die tomorrow. How will I die, might you ask?

Rubgy.

I am trying out for our girl's varsity team. I am scared, but I'm going to do it anyway.

My mom's freaking too. She just read about how my high school is not responsible for my death or potential maiming. Also, she says if I get my teeth knocked out, she won't buy me new ones because she just spent $5000 on the ones I have.

Great. Just Great.

So, my dear, darling, Buzznet, if I never see you again, know that I love you, and I'll miss you after I'm gone.

I find she needs them more than she needs me, as the crushed azure tablets find their way down her throat, sparkling and weaving lazily throughout the weeks that have passed. The powder needs no assurance, it has already brought a devastating victory, claiming her nightmares with intangible caresses. It will be night, and as the dark butterflies of epiphany flutter and scream, she is there, and her restless eyes further blackball my blossoming awareness.

Her lithe frame is wracked with convulsions and witch curses.

Wasn't it because of this? Because of these spells, the dark throes that crept past her afterthoughts in the days before the hells. Her salvation was much like Snow White's dearest poison apple in reality as the remains clung to her throat. There was no reprieve as promised, only the demons coming in different forms and swirling with new cruelty, admonishing and imposing on her dwindling state of mind. The crystals were fairies to her. I could never know.

Her eyes flutter into the back of her head as the paroxysm sustains, determined to finally claim her.

It was to be. There was a revolution between us both, a jolt of electric metamorphosis: sudden and permanent. To turn back would be to know no bounds, and weep in utter sorrow at what she has done, what the medication has done, what I have done. It glimmers like a dull malevolent fantasy, dancing in the back of our minds. Yet I do not regret, and as the erratic twitching and the sounds of glass shattering comes to efflorescence, my mind is clear as an autumn night. It is too late to regret.

She stills, her delicate hand falling to her side as her life flows away.

And now, like nothing more than shattered remnants of a short lived dream, she is gone. The rusted cage of her secret addictions was that of a worn book to me; open by its own compromises and the slight rustle of a wary breeze. And though I knew of her loss of reason, I still resolved to drive her to the limit, the ultimate point on the edge of the cliff. The bottle, bottle of toxins and poisons and venom; the bottle of her desires which claimed victory over us both; the bottle that I have taken from her. Her eyes always drew me in, they even draw me in now in their lifeless state, their tainted languid stares. I tell myself she is in slumber, she is waiting for me without inhibition under a blanket of sparkles and freedom as I hold the forsaken package in my tired hands. I have saved her from her  bereavement, and even now I mean to never let her alone. How ironic then, that my means to do so involves the ingestion of the demons ever seeking to take her life?        

Her corpse rests on the floor with so many broken paraphernalia, fair skin fading to an even lighter shade. 

As tablet after tablet passes through my lips, i grind the beryl substance between my teeth, the taste is forbidden and bitter; unpleasant, yet I do this to make it ever more memorable. Like so much cerulean and sapphire powder, the valium drags and weaves down my esophagus at the same time. Is it possible to become satiated on naught but abused medication? I feel like I am full, as my half lidded eyes crawl to the bottle once in my grasp, empty and now on the floor as if some frames were lost in translation. Everything is slowing now, it must happen soon or I'll be too late. If I cannot see my Snow White, what is the use of death? If only times were different, if only i could feel her again.

She is laying close to him, and he loses the battle of life as if she is sucking out his entity. He stills.

If only it was nothing at all.

The entire concept of today is inspiring. The letter I wrote to The Weather Man seems to have worked. It's sunny out. It's even a little warm, at least enough that we could just wear thin sweaters instead of heavy winter jackets. If we're lucky, it might even last until tomorrow.

Let's reinvent love and do something with it.

Now, for your own personal enjoyment:

I love you,
Liz

Dear Buzznet,
So, it is once again time for me to sign off and go to sleep. I have had a nice day today, and I hope you have too. I hope you have a good day until I see you tomorrow. I hope that wherever you are, it's sunny and bright, unless of course you enjoy the rain and the dark. But still, I hope you like your days as much as I like mine.
I love you,
-Liz
