{April 23, 2009}   Oh, this is nice.

So we’re supposed to blog about what happens in our lives.

WELL. I went out with this guy for 6 months and I loved him. I’d found out he cheated on me and used me to get to my friends. This was the most important and best relationship I’d had and it turns out it meant nothing.

So I’m hurting.

Isn’t this nice.

I’m going to be like Alanis Morisette and become a man hater.

{April 22, 2009}   Why do I cry?

I cry because I have post traumatic stress disorder.

I cry because I know I can choose to be happy, but it’s just too hard.

I cry because I’ve lost some good friendships.

I cry because I can’t travel to Quebec this summer to work because of my pain.

I cry because I can’t run or play the sports I love to play.

I cry because I find it so hard to just sit down and complete my homework.

I cry because I am overwhelmed with how much schoolwork I have to catch up with.

I cry because I’m always exhausted.

I cry because I have terrible headaches.

I cry because I get angry and irritated easily.

I cry because I feel pain even when doing simple things like carrying groceries or applying makeup.

I cry because I have all these appointments to go to.

I cry because I don’t feel like I can keep up with my life.

I cry because I don’t think my body is fit for an athlete.

I cry because I’m insecure.

I cry because my dad lives across the country.

I cry because my grandma always shouts at me.

I cry because I feel like my pain limits me to reach my goals.

I cry because at times I feel worthless.

I cry because I hate financial issues.

I cry because I’m stressed about finding a new home to live in.

I cry because I feel like I’ve lost my personality.

 

I cry because at times I feel all alone.

I cry because it’s hard to stop crying.

So A few weekends ago, the Junos were hosted in Vancouver. There was an event called Juno Fan Fare where there was an opportunity to meet with some of the bands/performers. Well I was lucky enough to meet Dallas Green of City and Colour/Alexisonfire and he thought the idea of the Passion Project was really cool, so he posed with a bracelet which I bought for him. Even better was he actually wore it during the ceremony and it was visible when he accepted his award.

I thought that was pretty awesome.

DALLAS GREEN SUPPORTS THE PASSION FOUNDATION, WHY DON’T YOU!?
