Well, this is me. Just in case the flowers have got you confused, I'm a guy named Michael. I'm 16 and... hmm... not much more I should be broadcasting to the entire world. I'm 5'8'' ish have very dirty blonde hair (ITS NOT BROWN DAMMIT!!! ITS BLONDE!!!), and said hair is long. Right now I've got it past my shoulders (thats a weird word, isnt it?) and I intend to keep growing it indefinitely. I think it would be cool if I had hair so long that I could wear it like a toga. that way, I could come to school one day, and be like, "Look! I'm naked! Except not!" Then again, I also think it would be cool to have a large hole in myself, but thats another story. Soo.... take a look around. I highly suggest the journal entries. And this calander is pretty cool. And this tagboard's pretty fun. I mean, I played with it...

I would like to wish everyone out there a very happy Gay Day!!! I've been absolutely ecstatic all day, and since I'm in a good mood, I figured I'd start this thing up again. So, yea. Starting at midnight, a bunch of gay people got married. For them I have only a few words. YOU FRIGGIN ROCK MY GAY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!!!!! :-D It was so cool to see all the people who had waited decades for the chance to get married finally get the right, and to have people cheering them on. On a side note, mild thanks to the protestors for not being complete assholes and doing anything stupid that would ruin the day for the gay couples. And if you're gay and from out-of-state and want to get in on the marriage action, P-Town (Provincetown, on Cape Cod) is granting liscenses to anyone, regardless of where they live. Oh, and P-TOWN ROCKS TOO!!!!! :-DDDDDDD
In other news, I haven't written in a month, so I'll give you a quick catch-up. The musical came and died after a lack of rehersal time and space screwed us over. Ah well. I'm doing the Prologue dance (even though I wasn't even in the cast) for Cabaret, with Roman, Rusty, Kristen, and Marci. We're gonna suck, but come see us on Wednesday anyways! Lessee, what else. I went to Six Flags for a jazz band field trip last Friday, which was pretty cool, and we got gold in the competeition! :-) Oh, and there's this really cool site I found that tells you how to make 89 different explosives. Nitrogen Triiodide is pretty cool. Only problem is that it's so sensitive that it's own weight can set it off if it's in a pile. Easy to make though.
So, thats pretty much it for now. I'm actually gonna keep this thing up (really) so keep checking!
Memorable quote from the last Month-and-a-half: POR FA-FRIGGIN-VOR!!!! ( Mrs. MacDonald in Spanish class)
I love Emily <3

We must seek a way to declare a great war on little things. We must find a word, a thought, a standard, under which small evils may enlist in a great wrong. Against this we could raise a fighting army.
Justice?
Too vague -- too meaningless -- too cold. But the 'King's Justice' -- that's better. Yes, that's it. Every knight the personal keeper of the King's Justice responsible for it. That might do -- for a time.
-King Arthur and His Noble Knights (substitute 'Justice' for 'Terrorism Prevention' and 'knight' for 'American'. Take a guess at who the 'King' is.)
It's human nature. You have something, and you don't need it, so you burn it! - Roman
(white Irish guy to other white Irish guys) The Irish are the blacks of Europe, so say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud! - Some random movie trailer
I love the possibilities that would come from living in Olde Andover - "Welcome to Olde Andover, home of Ye Olde Harrison's, Ye Olde Butcher Boy, and coming soon, Ye Olde Strip Club!" -Colin Steele
Possibly the biggest problem with all of this is that when I'm watching TV, my groin starts to hurt because of all the expanding and retracting it's doing when beautiful and ugly people keep popping on and off. -Andy, referring to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Special on Spike TV
Love and sex are both great, so you get them any way you can. What's the problem with that? -Totally Gayer
OK, so I don't have that many timeless quotes. Put some good ones in my tagboard and maybe I'll immortalize them in this entry. :-)

Hey everybody, this is a big touchy-feely apology thing, so leave now if that would annoy you. So yea. I've sorta...well, extremely... conservative bashing on this thing and I'm sorta feeling bad now. I dunno why, but I sort of realized in the past few weeks that ranting like that sorta pisses people off and makes me sound stupid at the same time. Have you ever seen one of those people on message boards WHO TYPE IN ALL CAPS HAVE NO GRAMMER FUCK AND SHIT SWEAR EVERY FRIGGIN OTHER WORD? I was looking at a few of those over the weekend, and was thinking, "Wow, those people are really stupid" when i realized that the same kind of stuff was in my blog.
I also started looking at things from a conservative point of view. I went to this conservative website and started reading some stuff, and actually agreed with some (granted a little) of what they were saying. I'm also gonna read Slander by Ann Coulter (basically a whole book about how and why liberals suck) just so I can honestly say I've examined both sides and still feel that liberalism is better. I also have a new idea-quotey thing-"People should constantly question their deeply held beliefs. If they can't stand up to the logical attacks of your own mind, how can they possibly be correct?"
However, I don't take back my comments about religion (mainly because I didn't make any mean ones, I don't think). I still feel that the intent of religion is being lost in the details. But whatever. I've never read any religious text in full, and even if you are slightly knowledgeable about the Bible, you would have no trouble sending me running home with my (metaphorical) tail between my legs in a religious arguement. So maybe I'm wrong. If you think you can (logically) contradict anything in this blog, please comment or post in the tag board.
On a completely separate note, I am now going out with Emily and I am happier than I have been in over a year :-D I haven't exactly been depressed, but I've just been, I dunno, off (see "Flat"). It's sorta like when you turn the lights on after you have been lying in bed for a while, and you didn't notice the darknesss until you turned on the light. Ok, bad metaphor, but you get the point.

Back in good ol' Massachusetts. I was just on vacation for about a week in North Carolina, wich was pretty cool. The weather was wicked nice down there. It actually got up to 65ish one day.
I spent most of the trip looking at colleges, which was pretty cool. I looked at Wake Forest, Davidson, Duke, and UNC Chapel Hill. I liked Davidson and Duke, but I haven't looked at any up north yet, so I dunno. My parents wanted me to do this just to get used to looking at schools and to figure out what to ask and stuff. One thing I found out was that Davidson is a verrrry liberal school (possibly). The school paper, The Davidsonian, had an article about going to a strip club which described some of the strippers breasts and made a reference to dildo shopping. There was also an article advocating porn and another advocating gay marriage. It's not so much that people wrote these articles but that the university actually allowed them in the paper. Why can't the rest of the world be more like Davidson?
In other news, I have officially decided that the south isn't that racist. We (me, my mom, and the ppl we were staying with) were coming out of a museum in downtown Raleigh when we stumbled upon a neo-Nazi/KKK rally (link is to a news story). It was pretty funny, because I sort of assumed that there would be this huge number of neo-Nazis and that this would be a massive rally. The rally was big, but thats because there were 500 odd protesters, and about 30 racists. There was only one KKK guy there, and the rest were neo-Nazis, with their crazy red swatstika flags and such. It was pretty funny, cuz you couldn't even hear what the lead asshole was saying because the protestors were shouting so loud. There was this woman in back of me who kept screaming "Fuck you asshole!!!!" Good times. I gave them the finger, so I'm proud. I love watching stupid people rant and get shut down by a crowd of angry protestors.
I will give the Nazi idiots one thing though. At least they're open about it. It's a lot easier to fight or oppose something when it's out in the open. It's also weird, cuz as much as I...umm... dislike these people, it is their right to have their little rally thing. It probably wouldn't be too bad if hate groups were outlawed, but that opens the door for othe groups to be outlawed, and it just spirals out of control. And a lot of the protestors (including myself) were hypocrites, because they were spewing the same hate that the hate groups were. It was just that protestor hate was directed at the neo-Nazis instead of non-white people. The best people that day was the Afro-American Students group at UNC which dressed in black and stood completely silently in a line in front of the Nazis. They didn't do anything or scream obscenities, they just stood there. That's cool.
So, yea. Good trip, Nazis suck. Oh, and if you are against gay marriage, you share that opinion with the KKK and the National Socialists of America. Just thought you might like to know. ;-)

Organized religion is becoming increasingly more annoying. I mean, at the start they were good. Jesus and Muhummad and Buddha and all those cool guys were like, "Be peaceful and happy and loving. Don't be mean. Be nice!" And now, a few thousand years later the Pope is telling me that gayness is evil, Mel Gibson is making anti-Semetic movies, and the Jehovah's Witnesses are still telling me to "convert so you can be saved." Now don't get me wrong, the Pope is cool, the Passion isn't exactly completely anti-Semetic, and the Jehovah's Witnesses... well, you gotta give them credit for trying. But what the hell happened to the original idea?
It seems like today, anybody who is devoutly religious is bashing someone or something, and using their religion to support them. Where went the idea of being loving and caring and peaceful? When did that all go to shit, to be replaced by today? Did it ever even exist? I honestly don't know. It seems like religions have been at each other's throats since the beginning of time.
I also don't understand how the devoutly religous can contradict the fundamental teachings of their religion. No, wait. I do. Remember the saying, "the devil's in the details?" It's true. All the people who are being hateful look at their religious text and are like, "Look! So-and-so felt this way about gay people. GAYS ARE EVIL!!!" They somehow manage to ignore the whole meaning of the text (peace, love, etc.) and get "gays are evil." They also manage to ignore all of the contradictions in their chosen text, and see only what they want. For example (and I'm no Bible scholar, so please correct me if I'm wrong), there's some part of the Bible that has a story bashing gay people. There's also a story about St. Paul, and how he advocates slavery, and thinks that a slave's role is to obey his master. Now, how can you claim to base your reasoning on the Bible, when you accept one statement and ignore the other? How do you justify it? It's beyond me. Ask the president. He'd know.
Somewhat unrelated, but I once heard someone refer to Jesus as "the original hippie." If you think about it, it's actually pretty true. He went against the established authority, and advocated that everyone be happy and peaceful and nice :-) So maybe there is hope. If the hippies came and stayed alive for a few years, who's to say we couldn't tweak the hippie lifestyle and resurrect it? The world of the flower children. That would be pretty cool.

This past week has been absolutely insane. Last Thursday was opening night for The Tempest, which was awesome. We all went to Denny's afterward and it was fun. Friday, the show was postponed, due to crappy weather, but the cast party wasd still on, so I ended up dancing from about 6 to midnight, which was FRICKEN AWESOME!!!! We went to bed at midnight because we had a show and the semi the next day, and we didn't want to be too wiped out. I woke up the next morning at 8 ish, and went straight to the flower shop to get primroses for the table decorations for the semi. Then I went back to NAHS for the show, and then went straight to DiBurro's to set up for the semi. I ran home, showered, coiffed, etc., and ran back to NAHS to catch the bus. It was weird, because I thought it was going to be complete chaos, but the teachers had everything under control (scary). So I got on and went to the semi, which surprisingly came together. The DJ was good, nobody did anything exceedingly stupid, and it was cool. The only problem was that nobody could understand me when I got on the mic to explain my little system of who got to take the flowers and potpourri, but oh well. Best moment by far: Stacy's Mom. That just made my night. :-D Then Sunday, we had the last show (gay porn magazine!!!), which was awesome, then struck for two hours and had closing. That was...emotional...to say the least.
Then I was rudely rocketed back into school, where I had to recover from the fact that my binder was stolen on Friday, and along with it, a lot of my term paper stuff. It didn't set me back to much, because everything vital was stored on my comp, but it was an annoyance. I was up til midnight or later every night this week finishing it, and on Friday I was up until 1 and woke up at 4:45. But twas done and twas good, so I'm happy.
It was also tryouts for the musical this week. I got a small-ish role, but (with a little prompting from Mr. Cotter) I decided to try pit this year. Emilia says pit rocks, and I hope she's right. The music is pretty hard though. I have sextuplets (I think thats what they're called) at 154bpm. Shit. Btw, congrats to everyone who got in (and to Emilia especially, cuz she got one of the leads!).
It was also our last week in the old NAHS. I'm gonna miss it, because I have so many memories in this school. I got to see the new high school on Thursday. It was cool, but it was just too...new. I mean, it almost felt industrial. I think that people tend to love and remember the defects in things than their strengths. Ah well. On Friday, I took a bunch of pictures, and got Dan and Marci to take a bunch of backstage (I had used up all my film because I didn't think I was gonna get back there). I took a beace of curtain as a souvenier, but I'm gonna miss backstage the most. That was the best room in the school. Alas, all good things must end.

I'm mad. I was just watching NECN, which was covering the Massachusetts House debate over the new bill that would ban gay marriage. They interviewed one woman who said "I have nothing against gay people. I just feel it is wrong for the state to legalize gay marriage." What the fuck??? The scary thing is, a lot of people (people = conservative bastards) seem to have this opinion. They claim not to have any prejudice against gays, yet they oppose gay marriage. Hi. I'm Earth. Have we met? You cannot deny a group of people the right to marry, a fundamental human right, and not have a prejudice against them. It's like saying black people can't get married. How well do you think that would go over? What I really love is the Christian zealots who are screaming "GAYS ARE EVIL!!!" Or even the people who are like, "We should outlaw gay marriage because the Bible says so. Sorry, but last time I checked, there was a little thing called separation of church and state. Yea. Ever heard of that?
So today's moral kiddies: people who oppose gay marriage are generally overly religious bigots who refuse to admit it. Have a nice day :-)

Well, I looks like I might have a date for the semi, which is good. Maybe. Life is ok as of the moment. I'm going insane trying to process all of the stupid checks from the semi. Ugh. Not to mention the cash. We have about $1000 in cash at the school, and we carry around hundreds at a time. We look like fricken drug dealers.
I'm thinking of writing a few rants for this thing to make it more interesting (most of you know this already, but I'm one of the most opinionated people on the planet) but I don't want to steal Andy's trademarked and patented idea. Plus, I'm sorta afraid they'd suck. Ah well.
I made an interesting discovery recently (don't read on if you have problems reading about urine). I was eating dinner, and we had asparagus. Now, for some reason, the point came up that asparagus makes your piss smell funny. Now, for some reason, I never knew this, so I asked my parents what they meant. apparently, asparagus makes your urine smell really rank, and it only takes a few pieces to do it. Now I have had asparagus many times, and never noticed this. So, that night, I had some asparagus, and when I next went to the bathroom, I smelled my urine. Well, not smelled really. More like wafted. Whiffed maybe. Anywho, the strange part is that IT DIDN'T SMELL FUNNY!!! That made me happy, because apparently it makes everyone's urine smell funny, but not mine! I feel so special!!! Maybe I have some super asparagus-digesting powers that allow me to metabolize asparagus better than anyone else. That would be cool. Then i could be ASPARAGUS MAN!!!! (dun dun da dun)
Here's my quotey thing for the day:
Where's that new world now the fighting's done?
-Les Miserables
So applicable on so many levels to today *cough* Iraq *cough*.
P.S. Forgive the occasional lack of capitalization. My shift key is being weird. ;-)
