CNF - The Past is Everything

  Sitting amongst other little four year olds as warm droplets of joy jogged down my smooth, hairless cheek, I realized the true meaning of "Ohana", or family. Lilo and Stitch taught me the true meaning of family. No one gets left behind or forgotten. I remember the ache in the pit of my heart as the national anthem filled the crowded Arco Arena. But it wasn't the Kings that was on my mind. It was my best bud, my dog Body, who was being put down that day. The sight of a professional football field had forever cemented into my brain. For this day, I witnessed the Bears get their asses handed to them by the 49ers. But it wasn't that my team had lost, it was the insatiable vomit and bratwurst taste that fills my mouth every time I watch a game. The shock and pain I saw in my mother's eyes as she informed me that she had been diagnosed with cancer. The hope and determination in my father's eyes to make it his duty to keep my mother with us. The realization of how precious and fragile life is had hit me in the face, knocked me down, and bloodied me. I now write to you as an honest, strong, and ambitious young man with hopes and dreams of his own.

CNF - Growing is Forever

I am like soil. I am moist meaning I am young and free. I have aspirations and feel free. I am free and cooperative. When a tree falls, people yell timber.

Eyes Wide Open

Today, I realized how much I had missed my friends. Today is my first day back since last Thursday. Last Friday, I had surgery on my knee. I was forced to miss pretty much this whole week of school. It was nice at first, especially since the new Madden had come out on Tuesday. But waking up and sitting in a chair for fifteen hours a day gets really boring after a while. I couldn't wait to come back and see all my friends again. Tonight, I will be going to the first football game of the year at Woodcreek. I'm going with my friends Austin Akers and Mandy Henley. I am pretty sure Casa will win once again like always and get revenge after last year. I am definitely missing football this year. I would be playing, but my damn knee had to get in the way of football. Hopefully my knee will heal well enough to where it shouldn't be a concern for football. Although, in the spring, I will be back in action with baseball. Baseball is my love and passion. This year I will be starting first base on the varsity team. So make sure you look for me in the newspaper.
