So tempted to write this entire post in rhyme...

Soooo I changed my picture (finally) to where I no longer have incredibly long hair. The downside is that you can't really see my face. This is because I can't seem to figure out where I saved my most recent picture. Not to worry though, I should be taking plenty pictures soon when I make my annual visit to the snowy wonderland that is Colorado to generally be a nuisance for skiers on the slopes. Hooray for repeating S sounds in my words! this week is finals (or mid-terms, whichever makes you happy) and I seriously feel that I am totally going to ace this stuff, even though I don't study. I'm sure whoever is reading this at this point is saying to themselves, "Good God, why did I ever decide to read his blog? It's boring as all hell and he is just going on about school!" Well, I'd just like to prove you wrong by saying that you're wrong. For Christmas this year, I have asked my mother for the Brine Gospel (which is INCREDIBLY hard to find apparently) and not much else. I don't have much of a Christmas wish list this year, which is probably okay because that helps my family's wallets significantly. That's not to say I wouldn't enjoy a little cash, seeing as I am broke a significant portion of the time.*nudge nudge, wink wink* Joking aside, I look forward to the new year. Sorry this post wasn't thrilling or exciting, but that just makes the next one better, right?
Thanks for reading!

Good God, my last update was in July???

Hokay so I have a looooot to catch up on! I think I'll start from school. This year is my sophomore year! I'm pretty pumped, in all honesty. This year my teachers are mostly cool with my favorite being Mrs. Trcka by a landslide. She's my WHAP teacher and she makes the class awesome. For those who aren't aware I'm also in music theory in the hopes that my rock career will benefit from theoretical knowledge. Speaking of, I hada gig on August 28th, which was incredibly awesome! I really need to get another one of those going... Anyway, lacrosse has started up and it's awesome as ever! Some of the new freshman are pretty cool (Mitch, Caleb, Michael, and Dylan)! Being a goalie has never been better and this seasonshould be hard but fun. We have a round robin tournament at West Lake in November and I'm stoked. A few weeks back I met my current girlfriend Alix at a Mcneil football game. I went to the Mcneil side to see my favorite Catholic Sanders and happened to meet Alix through an incredibly outgoing friend. Lessee... On October 12th I turned 16 and I had a really fun night with Christian, Kolton, Sanders and Alix. There was pool, quesadillas, and delicious flavored soda all around. The Monday after my birthday I went and got my license before school. I was terrified because the lady giving the test told me if I failed parallel parking I'd Gail the whole test! Luckily I passed and now drive Little Red, my beloved truck whom nobody should lay a finger on! I'm happy as can be at the moment, but just a bit tired. I'll try to update more often! As always, thanks for reading!

Ready to Fall

I was standin on a roof top ready to fall. It's kind of how I feel now. I don't know why but tonight my house feels claustrophobic. I want to leave, maybe take a walk in the dark. I know if I did my mom would have a fit. I called a few people but only two answered. I just feel restless. Maybe I'm just tired or something. Who knows? I re-learned Prayer of a Refugee today, and my love of Rise Against was reaffirmed. I can't wait for the new Red Hot Chili Peppers album to drop. I already love the Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie. It's a great song and I hope the rest of the album is good. Schools almost here and the only thing I yearn for are my license and football games. I think I have Miss Gladman again next year. I guess that's okay because she and I got along much better towards the end of the year. I miss that knucklehead Christian. Haven't gotten to hang with him in a week and it's weird cuz we've hung a ton this summer. We were going to make ghillie suits but we haven't even got the materials yet. It's weird to think I'm almost a sophomore. I've been alive over 15 and a half years. Well I think I'm done scattering my thoughts. Night. Thanks for reading.

The Desert Isn't Deserted

I've come so far from home. I'm in Phoenix, Arizona and have been for most of today. It may be the middle of the desert, but it is not deserted. My mom's friend from her time in Phoenix a long time ago invited us to hang with her and her kids, Jeffrey and Jillian. We walked to the top of a hill behind their house and watched a dust storm roll in to town. It was a time I won't forget with some people I already consider my friends. The day before, I was in Tombstone, Arizona to witness gunfights, buy a derby hat, and eat at the crystal palace saloon. The desert scalds during the day but the monsoons bring welcome relief. The dust storm was huge and enveloped the town for a good hour. I would have loved to have stayed with Jillian and Jeffrey longer. They were cool cats. Night, y'all. Thanks for reading.

I Feel

I feel many things. I'm excited. I'm going out of town for the 4th of July. I'll get to see the Grand Canyon, and a bunch of other cool stuff. I'm anxious. There are people I want to be with. I feel tired. That one should be pretty damn obvious. But in all seriousness I feel something for this girl. I know, I know. "Kyle we're tired of hearing romantic crap on your blog!" Deal with it, I say! But I don't know her well. I want to change it. I'm watching Chris Titus on comedy central. He says he found his ice cream truck. I hope I've found mine haha. Really I just want her to know I care though. If I can just do that. If I can just make her know what I would do for her to make her happy then I'd be satisfied. Thanks for reading and have a lovely evening.

The Night

Maybe it's just the night or maybe it's just me but I can't get her off my mind. I still smell her perfume and feel her hair against my face. I feel her body pressed against mine and I miss it. I'm lost tonight and right now my bed doesn't sound like a home. My mind is playing re-runs of tonight and I feel oddly romantic despite having just met her. It makes me think of the Paramore song "All I Wanted" because Hayley sings about how she gets up early to black and white re-runs of memories from her past. I think I'll get up tomorrow and she'll be on my mind again. My heart is pounding though, and my eyes are drifting in and out of focus. Maybe I'm tired and that's what's causing this. I'm glad we met, Lilium.

Why?

That's my question currently. My life is absolutely amazing. I am so incredibly happy, and could really ask for very little. School is ending, I had my best friend over tonight, and went to see a movie with the single most amazing girlfriend in the world. I'm laying in bed, it's dark, and all the little creatures of the night are going about their business. On the way home (Anna driving of course) i spotted a skunk, a couple stoners, and after getting out, a large owl. My mind is flying from one place to the next just reflecting on today. It's been amazing. I know this is a short post, but I'm tired. I think I'll go to bed now. Good morning, good evening, and I hope you like dreaming.

Blargh

That's about how I feel right now. I'm a sick little kid sitting at my kitchen table eating waffles with an hour to go before my lacrosse game and I feel pretty crappy. I am extremely happy though. I'm dating the amazing Anna Hamilton, I've got a double-header lax sesh today, and afterwards I'll prolly be hangin with some friends. It's going to be a great day. I can tell by the wind chimes in my back yard blowing and the birds chirping to anyone who might be listening. I'm feeling a bit better now that I've eaten. I think it's time for me to get moving. Thanks for reading!

Life

So generally, life is good. My grades are utterly terrible but I've got girls after me, a killer lacrosse team, great friends and some rockin guitars. I really couldn't ask for much else. Anyway, the team has recently acquired polos, and the look tiiiight! It just sucks I have to wear the othe dressy crap with them. So the book Animal Farm is good, but annotating it is really lame. I hate annotating. It blows. Not only is it boring though, it goes against everything I was taught as a kid. Miss Thelen, the librarian at Deepwood always told us not to write in books because it destroyed the reading experience of whoever read it next. So why on earth are my English teachers going to tell me otherwise for the next four years??? It's confusing. Aye well on a different note, this girl I like recently broke up with her boyfriend. I feel bad for her because she really liked him but honestly he didn't treat her very well. I seriously hope she doesn't read this too, cuz if she does I'm dead. Back to the subject though, that makes her free. Although I'm not sure that she likes me like that, it's worth a try isn't it? Food for thought. Night kids, and thanks for reading.

Hermmmmm...

Hey kids! Do you like violence? Yeah well good for you! Anyway, I was bored so I thought, "Heck let's update!" So now I'm here and not entirely sure what to write. Oh I know! This one time the Army bombed my buddy Keith! Oh wait, wrong story. So today in Spanish I felt pretty awesome because me and Will played Monopoly on his iPod, and Mr. Castillo was totally cool with it. Despite being from Spain where supposedly it's way stricter, he's pretty chill. I'm way glad I have him and it's actually a pretty awesome class. Another thing I'd like to point out is that the people in the class really make it awesome. If you're reading this, you know who you are. The other cool part is that if I'm behind on my sleep, it's a good nap time. Marco taught me that one, and I'm glad he did. Once again, thanks for reading, and peace.

You want insight into my life? Oh I'll give ya insight!!!

Maaaan it's been too long since I've updated. Sorry loyal followers! Anyway, life is pretty good right now. Where to start? Currently Dragon Lacrosse is the focal point of my life, seeing as it takes up 6/7 of my week. On Saturday I acquired a pet hedgehog, who my mother and I named Honey (she's a girl). My mother had agreed to let me have a hedgehog after Gradie, our former guinea pig, died. He died a couple weeks ago, and after mom had a little time to deal with the loss, she decided to get us a hedgehog. I also am taken by one Sarah Liberty as of Saturday two weeks ago. Sorry ladies, there'll probably be other chances. Anyway, I'd also like to talk about how awesome Nestlé Caremel Blend hot chocolate is! It's insanely good, and if you haven't tried it, you should. On a totally unrelated note, I saw the Austin Symphony Orchestra perform today which was quite interesting. Although i'm not a huge classical fan, I appreciate the talent that goes in to it. I also have to give major props to the pianist Edward Wang, who is younger than me but shreds a piano like a pro. Recently i've discovered the awesomeness that is Robot Unicorn Attack. Man that game is addicting! Well, once again I congratulate you for not tl;dr-ing this and hope you enjoyed. Peace, love and top cheddar.
