Cheater Cheater Pumpkin Eaters

Now that I think about it though, why do cheaters get to eat pumpkin? I really like pumpkin pie....

Ok Kenster, get to the point, now is not the time to be distracted.

So anyways, in my A/V class we are supposed to be working on thumbnails for the graphic design team. After getting my paper I began doing MY work with MY ORIGINAL IDEAS and then the annoying puppy just copies my drawings.

-.- like, not even trying to hide it, he just bluntly admits he's just going to copy it.

...What the hell!

I mean, it's not like my idea are that awesome and whatever but still that's annoying. Yes Keaton, person who is currently reading what I'm typing, your being annoying.

I've always been paranoid about people copying my work and not only during tests and things. In group work, I'd often work ahead and I hated when people just started copying me. I also closely guard my poetry and written work for the paranoid thought that someone might steal it and publish it before me. I've always protected my work for fear someone might take credit for it. I mean, someone could just copy my poetry and say it's theirs and what proof would I have that it wasn't?

That scares the hell out of me. It's like my worst nightmare. If someone stole my work... I think my life would be over. I would never be able to get over it. I'd be so upset i'd go ballistic!

Blah blah blah, write on!

Introductions

My two friends that are currently laying around on me I have decided need proper introductions.


Firstly, Keaton.

The annoying little puppy that kidnaps my arm and lays on me. Also Phishie's boyfriend. He is also throughly convinced that the powered in my necklace is cocaine. (eye roll) It's just some substance that glows in the dark, geez!

Then Jennifer

Who also says "It could be cocaine". A short and adorable manga fanatic. She dreams of being a manga artist herself someday and omg I want to read that. She also looks very smart. Got that nerd look about her that's just awesome.

Keaton says that people are probably starring at us like "Look at those weird people over there" well, that'd be true. He's wrapped around my right arm, laying on it while Jennifer lays her head on her hands which are resting on his shoulder. However, I think what is going through our class mates minds right now is more like "That looks like some weird oragy" (<-- word I don't know how to spell ugg)

Jennifer says "It could be"

Guys, you should be concerned for me.

Also, we have decided that Keaton is my 'little brother'. Don't ask me how that happened. He claims he's addicted to cocaine but as the fact that I don't believe that, I won't confirm it since he's just talking out his ass.

Jennifer: Wouldn't that just be farting?
Keaton: Yeah, I'm not farting!
Me: (proceeds to laugh followed by a coughing fit)
Keaton: stop coughing... actually, next time that happens, cough on me... i wanna get sick.
Me: (thinking: You're an idiot)

They are both currently wrapped around my like ivy and claiming that's a hug. Not that I mind but... it's weird. and inhibits my ability to write.

Apparently I shouldn't have said that because now he'll never let go -.-

Well guys, I'm pretty sure you stopped reading a thousand words ago so let's end this post here, lol.  Wish me luck on getting out of this hug hold predicament!

Hug you later, write on!

Ps: Now you guys know the everyday crazies that I deal with.

The Backstory

The backstory of my first romance as requested by the annoying puppy on my arm. (Keaton)

(sigh) Alright, here goes.

So I went on a cruise this summer. The only thing for a teen to do on a cruise is to spend all day in the Teen club with the other teens, running around the ship till 2 am in the morning of course, lol. In said club I met this guy named Adam. I kid you not the first thing I thought when I saw him was "Wow, he's kinda cute... scratch that, he's hot" Hahaha, thanks hormones. Anyways, low and behold he already had a cruise ship girlfriend. (So how the hell did you end up with him? You ask, well I'll tell you) This girl was named Bailey. Now er... well, to tell you the truth Bailey ended up being a capitol bitch heartbreaker. But before this ugly side of her came out, our group was having a problem. See, Bailey's dad had seen Adam trying to hug Bailey, didn't even know they were going out yet, and immediately would not let him near her. For some reason the guy hated him. Now that would be all well and dandy except for the fact that the group of us, (Adam, Bailey, Andrew, Jade, Isaiah and I) had decided to go to the hypnotist show... where Bailey's parents were too. So low and behold we decided that Adam needed to have a fake girlfriend for the night while in the presence of her parents....

Wanna take a guess who got drafted for the job?

Me.

Yep, my first boyfriend was my fake boyfriend first....

So we were playing the part of the couple canoodling in the corner and whatever and I was thinking Adam was REALLY selling it. I mean, i didn't think the amount of cuddling was necessary but he was doing it anyways. Well, I already liked the guy and it was just acting so I thought "What the hell, might as well" So I went all out too.

We got back to the club and Bailey was jealous. And mad. Very mad. Not at me, but at Adam. Now, honestly, IT WAS HER IDEA IN THE FIRST PLACE! I mean... was it really necessary? All they had to do was NOT sit together. And in revenge, she started getting all lovely with Andrew during the show to show us up. She knew he was only acting so I'm not sure what her problem was.

Anways, they got back together... sorta. At the end of the day though we were joking about "Bandrew" and the other ways that she was being a player. Safe to say by the end of night they were over even if she didn't know it yet...

So the night ended with a stroll to the front of the cruise ship where Adam and I shared a romantic kiss underneath the stars that night.

I did feel guilty about how it happened but not very much after how she blew up afterwords. She kissed a guy... then went across the room and kissed a girl who actually had feeling for her... while they were both in the same room and watching... and asked Andrew to be her fake bae to make Adam jealous............

These are the moment in life where I go... "Wth?"

Well, after we parted from the cruise ship our relationship continued via text for two months. We shared a few phone calls but he has anxiety over the phone so I understood. However, also near his birthday, we were emailing when he admits THERE IS A BOMB THREAT AT HIS SCHOOL!!! I almost had a heart attack. Welcoming a distraction, I sent him a story I had written for his birthday along with a picture I had drawn to go with it. We found out we had alot in common. In almost every  restaurant I could name we would get the exact same thing with only one difference. It was pretty cool.

In the end, he couldn't get over his life long crush on his best friend and we broke up. I will admit I cried my heart out but after a day of moping around, I felt better and was able to come to terms with it.

My only wish now is that he'll finally go after her and they will be happy together! :D

So, that's the basics for now. I could go in tons of detail but eh. Whateves. I'm over it and dwelling on it won't change anything. Plus, those insignificant details don't make a difference either.

Bye for now, write on!

ps: Jennifer (another girl in my class) and Keaton and thoroughly convinced I need cheering up and are proceeding to make my cheeks smile, lay on me, and draw on my hands. No, I don't have an explanation for their craziness either. I'll tell you when I find one.

New Experinces

Again, I have failed to update and keep up with my blog. I hope, since I am attending a class that requires my presence on a computer daily, that it may help with my consistency. If I was more professional, I might clean up the crap posts I've done long ago but I guess that adds to my character to keep them. It's sort of funny to look back and see the idiot child I once was so for now, I guess they're there to stay. 

This semester, I'm in a class to learn more about A/V production and as this correlates to the job I wish to have in the future, I'm very excited. Maybe it's a bit late to be making New Year resolutions but I want to get back into my writing. And so, maybe if I start blogging more I'll also focus a little more on writing chapters for my books. Seriously, Kenster, get to work! Lol. 

Currently, Phishies's (one of my friends) boyfriend is laying on my arm... completely taken it hostage people. -.- ..... yeah I don't have an explanation either. I knew wearing my fluffy sweater was a mistake and yet I did it anyways. -.- This is future Kenster speaking, DON'T WEAR THE SWEATER! (as past Kenster continues to ignore my cries and that is why I continue to be a pillow)

I'm excited to announce that I have a new friend that is very precious to me for she is my Best Friend. However, it's difficult. Finally having a genuine connection to some one can be troubling because I try and I fail and I blunder and then I feel really bad about it. But I'm trying. I'm really trying to be the best friend I can be and although I suck at it, I just hope I get better.  Hopefully, we'll be a good influence on each other. I treasure her friendship and envy her strength and I swear to be her support through thick and thin. Maybe that's what friendship truly is.

It's hard because she's broken. Yet that makes it so much more rewarding. I'm broken too, and I want to help her. Helping someone like me helps me. Hopefully, it's mutually benefitting for the both of us. Connecting with her is easier because I understand and I see that dark side in her that I thought I faced alone. At the same time, having to face that in someone else and seeing that from the outside, helps me come to peace with my own demonds inside myself.

I hope someday I can make her fully understand how much I treasure her strength and how much I envy her strength.

On another note, it's also sort of weird because I've found myself in a very weird situation. Said friend is related to a celebrity.... and now I've someone how become said celebrity's pen pal... Yeah, I'm not sure how it happened either. I mean, it would be okay, if it weren't for the fact I've recently come to admire said person's work. 

However, the awkwardness I feel is not mutual. Apparently, I'm just weird and awkward. Which is true but... I don't know, it's weird. Anyways, the Star-struck thing is completely new to me too. I've never been a fan of celebrities. Like wise, don't tell my friend, lets just keep this between me and all the random people that view this page... (aka the entire internet lol)

Speaking of new experiences, a few months ago I had my first experience with affairs of the heart. Including a first kiss, happiness and a broken heart. In the end though, I think I've become a better person out of it. Considering it was long distance relationship, I think it went pretty well... considering it was also my first relationship. So... go Kenster! ...I guess? haha. He was awesome but in the end I couldn't compete with the girl he's had a crush on his entire life. Which, I understand. It still hurt, but did understand. I made him promise however that in exchange for breaking my heart, he has to fully go after her and if they aren't dating soon, I will find him, and I will stab him with a fork ^.^ we're still friends and I totally ship them.

Keaton, (said boyfriend of Phishie) is bothering me about the whole backstory of this relationship I am currently typing about. So I may be tempted to write it...

But not on this post. :)

Later guys, write on!

Equality For All People

So I've been watching Youtube and I recently re-watched a few music videos posted by a channel called "RyanJamesYezak". The channel is a gay rights movement type of channel and although I only know them from the music videos, I love them soo much. I seriously suggest you check it out but mostly I'm typing this because it inspired me to write about the gay rights movement in general (Wait, am I suppose to capitalize that? Opps, sorry if I didn't. I'll fix it later if I'm supposed too...). I seriously support the gay rights movement. I just wish there were gay pride parades where I lived :( because I'd definitely go support them as a straight ally. I myself, am not gay. When i think about it, if a girl kissed me, wouldn't be offended and I wouldn't be upset but I am not attracted sexually to girls. I guess that's why I don't care, because if I'm not sexually attracted it doesn't really matter to me. However, I know alot of people that are lesbian, Bi or Pansexual. Now, I would like to clarify (at least how I understand it).

Straight- Attracted to members of the opposite gender
Gay- A man attracted to members of the same sex (although used as a general and adjective too)
Lesbian: A woman attracted to member of the same sex (although we also use gay to describe them too, lesbian is just more specific)
Bisexual: A man or women attracted to members of both sexes (not including transgender)
Asexual: A person with a generally low sex drive or no sex drive at all
Transgender: A person who has switched genders by a medical process
Pansexual: Attracted to everyone (including transgender)
Straight Ally- This isn't a sexual orientation but it is sometimes included in the list. A straight ally is a straight man or women who supports the gay right movement.

See, to me the distinction between a bi and pan is including of Trans. specifically and I don't know if that's right but that's how I've always distinguished between the two. Otherwise, I'm not really sure what the difference is. Though, I heard some people say Pan includes sexual attraction to animals... no, that's just bestiality and a sexual fetish. Honestly, if that became a sexual orientation I'd support equal rights for you but I would not agree with what your doing. You can't effectively communicate with animals like that. I just...no. as far as I'm concerned or have knowledge of, it's not a thing, so I don't have to worry about that.

Speaking of the different sexual orientations, I don't get transgender. I don't understand the want to change gender. However, it's your body and you can do whatever you want with it, I don't have the right to say you can't and they should have equal rights. It basically is just another form of cosmetic surgery. Now, I don't agree with cosmetic surgery either but, what's done is done. You don't see people denying them rights but take one step below the belt line and "ER MER GERRRD!" pandemonium. (eye roll) That's just stupid.

Continuing on. I don't understand why people automatically assume that straight allies have to be gay... um, no. I just believe in equal rights... there really is nothing more to say about that.

And now we get to the bulk of the issue. Marriage equality. I would like to point out there are so many issues with the fight AGAINST it, it's ridiculous. Do you actually know what "traditional" marriage actually was? Look it up. I dare you. Pologamy, rapists, concubines were all popular forms of 'traditional' marriage. It's in the bible. So there is no "traditional" form of marriage anyways! I would also like to point out: This isn't a religious issue. Separation of church and state people. You can believe what ever you want, but you can't use your religion to justify infringing on the rights of others.

That's just wrong.

I wrote my project on it and i think that I may even post it :) That would be awesome.

Hickies?

So Theodore (I have decided that Theodore is now my brother's name. He says it's his "Stage name" now. Well this is close as a stage he is ever gonna get lol) comes home from school (he's taking courses to get ahead but he's finished now) And during dinner I look over and see this bruise  on his neck. So of course I'm all concerned like "What is that?" He gets up to look in the mirror and comes back and starts smiling, like I've caught him doing something bad he's secretly proud of. Turns out it was a hickey given to him by some girl named Abby.... I'm really not sure what to make of it. I know some people look down on it. I am looking down on it because it's on his neck where it's so obvious. I know I wouldn't want someone doing that to ME. So...yeeeaah. Idk. What would you guys tell your brother in this situation? Because I'm really just kind of stupefied here.

Blah Blah Blah

Fan Fiction

I realized one day that one of my pet peeves is fan fiction. I know, I can already imagine the horrified stares at this post and the angry comments I'll get. Hear me out though. It's not that I dislike ALL fan fiction, in fact as a writer, I WANT people to make fan fiction. However, there's a point where I draw the line.

The subject came up in a very round-a-bout way and because it's sort of entertaining I will give you the 4-1-1. So it all began when I was riding in the car with my mom driving. All a sudden, my mom says "Oh crap, it's the missionaries". (Which means they'll be by our house because my dad used to be Mormon but apparently they still have our address or something idk but they always come by and usually we don't mind but sometimes, geez) So I look over as we're driving down the road and sure enough there are two men in white shirts and black dress slacks walking on the sidewalk that leads borders the outside of our neighborhood.

My brother asks "How do you know it's them?"

 My mom looks at him a bit bewildered at how he doesn't know "Because they're in white shirts and carrying bible bags?"

"Oh!" my brother exclaims. "They're walking, I thought you saw their car and was wondering how you could identify them from a car!"

My exasperated Mom just shakes her head "No Theodore they're usually always walking or on bikes."

"Oh, why's that?"

"Because the church doesn't pay for the cars?"

"Oh"

(now of course, I don't know if that's still true or not. My dad left the church a long time ago and the missionaries came to our house once by car so idk) I started laugh as I remember something "That's funny, them riding bikes? Reminds me of William in "Murdock Mysteries". He was always riding his bike everywhere. I mean, all dressed up and looking so serious but here he is, coming down the road on his bike!"

My mom nodded.

"I hate how it ended though. They didn't continue for another season and decided to leave it THERE! If your not making another season, you have to wrap it up! You can't leave that kind of cliffhanger! Especially because that just encourages fan fiction spin offs"

Theodore piped up. "What wrong with that? There's going to be fan fiction anyways."

"I know but-" and then I went on to explain why I didn't like it. For you I will put in an essay form.

So let's start with the fan fiction I don't like: fan made endings. I hate them! To me, it's like intruding on the author's work. You can't say how it ended because you aren't the author and for some reason I'm very touchy about it. It's impossible to make the ending how it should have been written according to the author's vision, it's like books turned into movies and the movies get it seriously wrong. Let's say PECRY JACKSON AND THE LIGHTNING THIEF OMG I HATE THAT MOVIE SO MUCH I CAN BARELY CONTAIN MY RAGE. THE PLOT ISN'T EVEN THE SAME!!!! UGGGGGGGGG! (okay but let's get back on focus here). To me though, there's a difference between ending and alternate endings, that's why I hate cliffhangers. Alternate endings are ways it could have ended but didn't. That's different from endings because I'm talking about fan made ones where they write the ending because the writer couldn't for some reason. Like if the writer died while writing the books or they decided to discontinue the show. Those are the endings I'm talking about. When the ending doesn't exists and so others do it fan made. I have issues with others trying to finish the author's work. It's evasive.

The second type of fan fiction I despise is Yoai. (I know I know so many of you are ready to throw your moniter at the wall). But hold on, I actually like Yaoi (And now you guys are probably yelling at me "Do you like it or DON'T like it? MAKE UP YOUR MIND!) Here's difference: I like Yaoi intill you start shipping a Yaoi that will never be and would never have a possibility to be real. I mean, when people start taking to OBIOUSLY STRAIGHT CHARECTERS and put them in YAOI FAN FICTION! That makes me curse to no end. The example I have in mind is the Naruto and Saske ship (I know, you hate me so much right now) If Naruto and/or Saske was gay, it'd be different, I would probably ship it too. The problem is, they're both obviously straight. Naruto has a crush on Sakura so he's obviously straight (or at least bi or pan but even if he was, he is obviously doting on Sakura right now and I don't think he could be bi because all of that "Sexy Ju-tsu" (is that how I spell it?) Saske, well, he's never liked Sakura in that way so I guess you could argue he could be gay but somehow I doubt it. If it turns out their both gay, I will let you all ship to your heart's content without any grief but so far they are straight so please keep it that way because in all the spin offs and OVA you could imagine, their will be Naruto+Saske. I'm sorry. That does in no way mean I'm against gay rights or gay people. I would consider myself a "Straight Ally" if there were ever gay pride parades where I live (but the people here are so conservative it will never happen).

On the contrary, I love all other types of Fan Fic. My favorite however has got to the artwork. I haven't read many fan fiction stories. My absolute favorites would have to be anything written or drawn for my OTP. Seriously, I don't think there's anyone who wouldn't agree with me. When you see cute things for your OTP you go ballistic, who doesn't?  It always bugs me when I see something totally cute but it's for a different ship than the one I support and I'm all like "NOOO! IT'S SO ADORABLE BUT I REFUSE TO PIN IT BECAUSE I JUST CAN'T IT'S NOT RIGHT!!!" Shipping problems, right? :P

Alright, well I made my point so I'll sign off for now but I should write about Yaoi and gay rights in the near future... in fact, I will. So look forward to those posts coming soon!

Blah blah blah,
