Vietnamese New Years
Little children in traditional outfits, lions dancing about, symbols clashing, drums banging, gongs chang-ing, fireworks blowing up. That’s the sound of Tet new years. When I was younger. Everything about this even terrified me, from the dancing lions to the super loud fireworks. You know, the typical red ones that come in packs of almost a thousand!!…well it seems. Yeah, but fact of...
Find me here.
I’ve been searching for you, on the face of the moon amongst singing birds along acres of flowers above a sky blue into ocean’s reflection across golden fields atop a bed of mountains avast the seven seas towards the setting sun beneath a blanket of stars beyond the ends of the earth All of my life, Where have you been.

Knockin on Heaven's door
Saturday was a pretty day on account of the sun being risen and the chunks and bits of cumulus clouds floating about. I began the day with my venturing scouts. We cooked noodles and ate it with peanut butter/soysauce topping. Sounds gross but it’s actually good!…well if you cook it correctly. We didn’t.
After this meeting was adjourned, I attended a funeral in which Mteam lion...
Brother.
Another man down Earth listens to his body touch ground. Another brother fallen His body perishes, name never forotten. Tell me why it is that you strike. Can you not see that we are both alike? Difference is only but our skin, We bear children and have kin. We love and we hate, We take lives, we procreate. Why can’t you see, you are just like me? I can see you’ve eyes, That witness...
insane in my membrane
What goes on in the mind of a female? It drives me crazy sometimes! I believe that girls were put on this planet to confuse the opposing sex, and maybe even the rest of the animal kingdom as well. It’s not so much how they are or how they look (definitely not that heh), but how they think! I find it quite odd how they would say one thing and mean something else. Here’s a good example...
Deus
I don’t understand how you could die for I who made your heart cry. Abandoned by your own kind an outcast but still mankind. Like a rose, trampled on the ground you hurt but made no sound Thrashed, slashed, tortured and beat you persisted but accepted defeat Crucified with scars, and the blood you shed alone, unwanted, left for dead. How could it be, that we did not see? A...
Twas a pretty day. Sorta sunny but real chilly. Venturing was over with and I was in the car ride home after running some errands with my friend. On the road, I could feel hunger pangs, almost as lethal as they sound. Like a sharp knife, twisting and tearing apart all of my stomach and internal organs… Okay maybe I exaggerated just a little bit but fact of the matter is that I was one hungry...

puppy love
Well isn’t that just the cutest thing. Ever since i was a little boy, that’s all i knew about love, is that people in love smooched. And of course me being but a child with a young mind thought it was unsanitary and disgusting. How could anyone engage in such slimy activities with their lips and tounges!? My automatic response to this stuff was cooties. I was not looking foward to...
“We are growing older and older every year, everyday.
We are...”

But nonetheless, this marks an important event. You and those few others curious about my life will be updated with what was, what is, and what will be of the future. And speaking of what was, let’s...
