MnO4- (aq) + Fe2+ (aq) --> Fe3+ (aq) + Mn2+ (aq)Tuesday, February 17, 20097:26PM - What was and what isI remember when I used to write in this all the time. And the same circle of friends always answered in echoes. On occasion I'll check my old MySpace page, just to remind myself of what was. I am continually amused to find the pages of friends completely preserved--and months, if not years old. It's funny how all of us in this "digital age" have built up these alter egos spread across multiple servers in different parts of the country. It's not a unique concept, I know. I don't claim to have discovered something new. But how striking it is to come across your old self, your old rants, the things you cared about. And it's entertaining to see what has and hasn't changed. I still whine, just not as openly. I still sing the praises of others, I still write poetry. But for once, my poetry seems to be improving; I am continually forced to pay attention to detail. On LiveJournal or any place else, there are few critics if any. In the end, maybe it will matter, maybe it won't. But it's good now and again to sit back and recall.

It is not that we lack confidence, but that confidence Friday, January 4, 20083:18PM - The metaphysics of a ball of yarnI sit here and smile Current mood: nostalgicThursday, October 25, 20079:54PM - I wish I knew what it felt like to really KNOW somebodyThe title says it all. Now don't get me wrong. I have some of the most amazing friends ever. And don't get me wrong; I'm used to rejection. I'm used to feeling weird or confused or loved or hurt. I have family and friends who care about me; I've had people stab me in the back; I've had crushes reject me. And no, drama isn't all there is to my life. To the cynics in the audience: You've GOT to believe I'm an interesting person. And if you've ever talked to me, you know it's true. I guess the best way to phrase it is that I'm sick of bullshit and I get bored and I hate ignorance. In a nutshell. Current mood: ish Saturday, October 20, 20078:52AMWhat happens to a dream deferred?

Very weird but fun. And yet, are we kidding ourselves? The year's barely started. *shrug* I think the future holds something very bright and beautiful and amazing. What that is we all have yet to discover, but it is waiting for all of us. May we all use this year to better understand ourselves, understand our friends, our flaws. To pursue the unknown...

Current music: Wake Up-- RATM Monday, August 6, 200710:06PMWell I suppose it's worth it to write about my first day of my senior year. I think there's not much to tell, except that I was very very glad to see everyone. Some people I had already seen yesterday, but no matter. There was still some novelty left. ^^ Chemistry is going to be difficult, but a lot of fun. Art History has caught a snag due to some form I have to fill out, but that should be fine in the end. Health is awful, but I'll grin and bear it. I love my two math classes also, and English is absolutely amazing. Not much more to report...oh wait! First hour is a release *dances* so that's good. But generally the day went well. Hopefully, I'll get more sleep tonight than I did last night. That would be fabulous. Current mood:  exhaustedWednesday, July 25, 200710:38PM - Tanglewood! and stuffHey all! I'm in Boston. Yay! and on Saturday, I go to New Hampshire. Sadly, however, I also have chemistry and summer reading to finish >< Alas, no rest for the wicked... Current mood: crazyMonday, July 23, 20078:08PM - I'm back, sort ofI'm back, except that I'm going to Boston tomorrow. So I guess I'll see everyone when school *shudder* starts. ^^ Two more weeks still though. That's the good part of all this. Current mood: cheerfulMonday, July 9, 2007Sunday, July 8, 20073:48PM - I post this blank entry in protest.
