Fat Sensitive Kids...

Real Talk with Mary Saybolt

RITE A RIFF

This is a recent entry in my Fast Write Journal. It doesn't stand out in any way to me, it just happens to be the page I opened too. Here it is:

The other day I logged on to my Facebook an was just minding my own business ya know, checking notifications, replying to messages.. Anyways, I was scrolling down my news feed just innocently scoping out Facebook when I came across a picture of a girl with a shaved head. Not completely bald, but maybe 1/4-1/2 inch hair length on the shaved parts. It was short as fuck. Through further analysis of the photograph, and by glancing at the title of the photo, I could see this was no one other than my ex, Kallie. "JESUS" was what I said. I was shocked. Damn near shit my pants. "How the.. What the.. Why?!" was all  I thought. She had shaved the sides of her head up to above her ears. It looked ridiculous. I was embarrassed for her. And for myself, having had anything to do with that. She wasn't crazy when I was with her, but now I will live in silence, and not speak of or mention any relation with that fool.
It looked like that..........................................^^ But not as attractive.

Blog Reviews

NATE YO: This blog is pretty well done. I have to give props to Nate for letting me create this for him.

Billy's Blog: This blog was unique because it had great contrast between the text and background and it used good spacing between pictures and text. It also had a good balance of information.

TGOD's blog: This blog was unique but needed more material. It had a poem that was pretty creative but the blog site itself was pretty weak.

Remember

I remember important instances in my life by replaying them over and over again, usually when I'm trying to think of something to brighten my day. For example, lets say I'm having a shitty day at school, everything just keeps getting worse and worse. I figure if I think about a good day on the mountain, or a good experience at a party or even little things that I excel at, it brightens my day. I choose not to remember experiences that have no meaning or were bad, although this is not to say I don't learn from them. I gather the information needed from past experiences and apply them to the future, so I can abstain from reliving a bad experience. It is the essence of ever-perfecting, which is how I remember.
Example, when I want to brighten a gloomy day, I will think of this: Eaglecrest terrain park, long ago.


These quotes capture my mindset about skiing completely.


The sport of skiing consists of wearing three thousand dollars' worth of clothes and equipment and driving two hundred miles in the snow in order to stand around at a bar and get drunk.  ~P.J. O'Rourke,Modern Manners, 1984


When it comes to skiing, there's a difference between what you think it's going to be like, what it's really like, and what you tell your friends it was like.  ~Author Unknown


Skiing combines outdoor fun with knocking down trees with your face.  ~Dave Barry
