"For the life of me I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise. For the life of me I did not believe we'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen." ~ The Verve Pipe "Freshmen" ~ Brett Cohick - 10/16/01 ~ ~ Davin"Bug"Ward - 10/16/01 ~ ~ Ryan Holmes - 7/23/02 ~ ~ Dylan Liberati - 7/23/02 ~ ~ Jeremey Shields - 10/19/02 ~ ~ Chad Castle - 6/1/03 ~ ~ Jesse Sammons - 8/3/03 ~ ~ Toni Bonnell - 8/3/03 ~ ~ Tatum Route - 8/3/03 ~ ~ Josh Wright - 8/24/03 ~ ~ Brent Jennings - 8/24/03 ~ ~ Jessica Marshall - 8/24/03 ~ ~ Ryan Myers - 10/24/03 ~ Soul Mates
Have you ever felt like you knew someone a long, long time ago?
Another place, another time, a friendship of the souls?
Two people who share a bond for reasons neither know,
A feeling that they were friends, a long, long time ago?
Did they stumble onto each other by pure circumstance,
Or was it fate and destiny that played a certain hand?
Two souls intertwined, they are worlds apart,
But the soul, it knows no difference, in matters of the heart.
Somehow they are drawn together, fate has brought them back,
Each living worlds apart, they journey separate paths.
When this life is over, and a new life begins,
Their souls will find each other, two souls that we call friends.

10 steps to create and enemy and start a war: Listen closely because we will all see this used in our lives. It can be used on a society of the most ignorant to the most highly educated. we need to see their tactics as a weapon against humanity and not as truth. First step: Create the enemy. Sometimes this will be done for you. Second step: be sure the enemy you have chosen is nothing like you. Find obvious differences like race, language, religion, dietary habits fashion. Emphasize that their soldiers are not doing a job, they are heartless murderers who enjoy killing. Third step: Once these differences are established continue to reinforce them with all disseminated information. Fourth step: Have the media broadcast only the ruling party's information this can be done through state run media. Remember, in times of conflict all for-profit media repeats the ruling party's information. Therefore all for-profit media becomes state-run. Fifth step: show this enemy in actions that seem strange, militant, or different. Always portray the enemy as non-human, evil, a killing machine THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY. THIS IS HOW TO START A WAR. THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY. Sixth step: Eliminate opposition to the ruling party. Create an "Us versus Them" mentality. Leave no room for opinions in between. One that does not support all actions of the ruling party should be considered a traitor. Seventh step: Use nationalistic and/or religious symbols and rhetoric to define all actions. This can be achieved by slogans such as "freedom loving people versus those who hate freedom." This can also be achieved by the use of flags. Eighth step: Align all actions with the dominant deity. It is very effective to use terms like, "It is god's will" or "god bless our nation." Ninth step: Design propaganda to show that your soldiers have feelings, hopes, families, and loved ones. Make it clear that your soldiers are doing a duty; they do not want or like to kill. Tenth step: Create and atmosphere of fear, and instability and then offer the ruling party as the only solutions to comfort the public's fears. Remembering the fear of the unknown is always the strongest fear. THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY. THIS IS HOW TO START A WAR. THIS IS HOW TO CREATE AN ENEMY. We are not countries. We are not nations. We are not religions. We are not gods. We are not weapons. We are not ammunition. We are not killers. We will NOT be tools. Mother fuckers I will not die I will not kill I will not be your slave I will not fight your battle I will not die on your battlefield I will not fight for your wealth I am not a fighter I am a human being!!! | hehe Saturday. 3.19.05 12:25 am Hello all.

Comment! (0) | Recommend! sigh of relief Wednesday. 3.16.05 1:14 pm ...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...I feel a little less stressed out today then usual. I dont really have any meetings today, just class and work. I went and got everything straitend out that needed to be yesturday, so that made me a very happy girl. How bad was yesturday tho... 1: I got up and went to oral comm at 930 and had to give my brown bag speech which i basically just improvised...2: went to the library and got a couple quizzes done for world civ. 3: Class and sat through a horrible movie...4: New member meeting, where I had to get things straitend out, which I eventually did later 5: Work, where I found out the school messed up and I dont have a paycheck this week 6: station meeting 7: music meeting with katie and finally wal mart where the cashier was a dipshit and put everybodies stuff on my order after she had been specifically told whose stuff was whose....dumbass people...I mean ive been a cashier and Im more understanding towards them then most people...but even I thought she was stupider then the average wal mart employee... But anyways....tomorrows my favorite holiday in the entire world...St. Patricks day...wooo hooo..and then my Great Grand Big, Lauren, Kim, and Tiff are all coming up to visit this weekend....wow....I cant wait to meet Beth, we have the best family line ever....updates on a weekend I prolly wont remember at a later date....

But I finally got my little black kitten, its a female and I named her Isis, shes adorable and a little chubby. I did get out to a few of my Bro's basketball games and saw Kassi at one of em for the first time since like....June?...wow. Of course I didnt get to see my best pal, Nik Nak- since her schools a dork and they didnt get spring break til this week or something to that effect. But anyhow I also found out that its a definate and my family's moving to Montoursville when my bro gets out of school in June. Im really excited cuz that means I never have to go home to Canton EVER again. Anyhow Its not like I wont be able to see any of the friends I still have in Canton, cuz y'all can just stop by and visit when ya go the mall or something to that effect. But Im really glad my bro wont have to finish out his education at Canton...He's way to talented to waste away in that school and in that sports program where talent doesnt matter, your last name does....CoughHolmesKitchenGeraldCough....Im sorry but I need to clear my chest on this issue....I miss Ryan to death he was a great guy and a very talented athlete...but that doesnt mean Reese inherited Ryans abilities...He's never going to be another Ryan and Canton needs to get over its loss when Ryan died....Its gonna be three years people...ok I feel a little better now... But anyhow, The old gang is going to be reunited in VA Beach this summer I cant wait....Its gonna be a sort of Senior Trip reunion of sorts cuz that was just the best time ever...Yay! Anyways, Im out for now cuz Ive got a shit-ton of stuff to do because my ass is involved in way too much this semester...ok not really...im just finding myself having to take on other peoples work as well as mine and im on the verge of a burnout... Comment! (0) | Recommend! Im back Thursday. 2.24.05 4:37 pm yeah, its been a while. I had to get my PC fixed cuz it got hit by a massive virus a couple weeks ago. Its doing a little better now. Anyhow, so things are goin' pretty much. Im still having a lot of stress as usual but its spring break on wednesday so hopefully when i go home i can get rejuvinated and such. Basically my lifes consisted of finding any excuse to not be in my room. I hide out in the library and womens center a lot, or I hang out in Dianas room or go visit lisa and lawley. Im really homesick this semester which is completely ironic as compared to last semster when i had no desire whatsoever to go home. Things have been much much better with my mom to the point that it feels almost like the old days in high school. speaking of the old days I got to see my nik nik the other weekend. It made me miss last year so badly. Im glad the canton side of my life is going better now that the college side is going to shit. Well maybe not going completely to shit, there are some bright spots here and there, Im enjoying the sorority, but i honestly just want to drop advocacy and the station. i want to drop advocacy because its stressful, but i dont really have a reason to drop the station other then the fact that im not enjoying it anymore. So update on my dad is there really isnt an update, his condition is pretty much the same, he isnt getting any better but i suppose the upside is he isnt getting any worse. I still pray a lot. I think ive finally gotten to a place where im not bitter towards him anymore, im starting to learn forgiveness, at least where hes concerned. ohh...my Alpha moment of the week....My cell phones broke cuz ...hehehe...i kinda put it threw the wash accidently...

The rest of the girls all decided to thug it out last nite...yeahhhhh...Jess tried to get Diana to go thug to, but ittt didnt work to well at allllll. And jeeze...poor Diana was traumatised because Matt Brody walked in on her when she was changing...Diana finally washed Lisa's shirt that she ralphed on and as soon as we got outside she dropped it on the ground....shes so slick. So me, Diana, Jess, Kim, and Mandie all got 40's and headed over to Lisas and to Lyles to wish him a happy birthday. We wern't there very long cuz Jess wanted to head over to Katie G 's birthday party. So Diana took some of the 40's and stuck em in a brown bag (really subtle) But I had to stick mine up my coat, I looked like I was pregnant, and it was a healthy baby 40. We hung out there for awhile...it wasnt anything too exciting...Mandie and Jess we're crazy. Mandie came crashing through the door and almost shoved me off the balcony when I was outside with the smokers, Jess just kept dancing like crazy all night, and we lost Kim somewhere along the way... After awhile me and Diana headed back over to Lyles. It was so funny, we didnt drink that much but me and Diana just sat in the middle of the floor and laughed about nothing at all for hours. I guess we were good entertainment for the boys tho...they thought we were crazy. We eventually decided to watch a movie at 4 in the morning (after we watched the french fry, the meatball, and the milkshake) Me and Diana had been planning on coming back to the room and watching episodes of Friends but somehow we all started passing out. Nate was the first to go, then Mikey and Diana passed out on the couch and I ended up crunched up in a chair all nite. At least Lyle was nice to me and covered me with a blanket before he went to bed...muahahaha...sucks to be you Diana  hahaha...Me and Diana finally came back to pinecrest at 730 in the morning, still drunk....wow...we honestly werent that bad the night before, I swear...but anyhow...gonna get going cuz wonderful Bubba just decides to inform everyone that he's calling a meeting at 430 and doesnt tell us til noon....nice...oh wellComment! (0) | Recommend! Yo Sunday. 1.16.05 2:09 pm So...as you can see i WAS pretty excited about my birthday...but that changed pretty fast. The night before my mom called me and yelled at me for 15 minutes til i hung up on her, so that had me in a miserable mood the next morning. Going to classes isnt a way to make you all pumped up about your birthday either. AND to top it all off...I got to sit on my ass in the womens center for five hours and sit on my ass at the organization fair for three hours after that. It was horrible! The freakin radio station decided to play hip hop all nite while we were there EXCEPT one Flogging Molly song...god bless whoever decided to put that on. Anyhow...as you can see my birthday sucked ass... However friday I made up for it in a big way...Thank you Diana ur the best...haha, basically I got way to trashed again...but thats what you do on ur birthday weekend. I woke up at some point during the nite passed out on Lisa's couch and Diana was bringing me water constantly and I had a bucket by my feet...so apparently I got pretty sick. Tish told me she kept taking me to the bathroom to puke and the one time I was in there Diana got sick and had no where to throw up so she wound up spewing on Lisa. I made it back to pinecrest at 830 saturday morning and woke poor Tish up cuz I couldnt get my key to work in the main door so she had to come let me in. Saturday nite was kinda stressful at moments but everyones moved on. It was pretty quiet around here cuz EVERYone went to the SAE party cept for me, Tish, and Diana. The three of us just watched movies all nite. It was cool to just chill. This morning kinda sucked cuz I think im gettin sick. OMG me and Tish both fell on our asses walking to church this morning it was painful but kinda funny seeing how we both managed to fall at the same time. Well tonite I guess me and Diana are gonna go visit the old house cuz its Lyles birthday...Tish's b/f is coming up so they can be alone for awhile then. peace out home slices Comment!
