Mr. Hudson Grimm
Hudson Grimm usually indulges in aptly named nauseous activities.
One of his favorites- ringing the throats of any animal found in the city. After they cease to breathe, he boils their carcasses, they must taste delicious. He’s captured every stray on the sidewalks.
He has an intricate appearance. Top hats and sunglasses, with a trench coat and bright red moccasins. He smoothes his socks every night. His attire is complete with a blissful bloody smile.
Atlantic City is a dangerous place when Hudson Grimm is on the streets. Try and look him in the eye-just try. He’ll take you away, leaving an immaculate crime for all to ponder. How did Hudson Grimm get away?
this is my attempt at writing about a person with a memorable name. Someone that could make an impact...ya know?

Heat Wave
Apparently we're in an almost week long heatwave over here...But I know how to beat the heat, in the swimming pool ;). Yea it's finally clean..er. So the next two movies I am going to see are Despicable Me and Inception. (so far nobody wants to see inception with me...sad). Hopefully Kim changes her mind.

Incinerator!!
I was so nervous while watching Toy Story 3....but I knew the aliens would save the day. I liked the movie, lots of cute and funny scenes as well as easter eggs. Very bittersweet. Good thing my toys are kept in the attic, they'll be there when I need them :)

Summer and Autumn...Winter...and Spring
Something I wrote during school. It's about the seasons and one person who doesn't like them even when they're okay.
“Constantly Seasonal”
I.
They’ll miss it, they’ll miss the forts, fights, and angels
Trying to catch just one flake on the tips of their tongues only to have it melt
They’ll miss having to line their coats with coats
Christmas hams and giving out anonymous Valentine cards.
They’ll miss steamy hot chocolate, crackling fire places, and days off from school.
They’ll miss their red faces buried in every pile of snow.
I won’t miss this when it’s gone
The chapped lip causing winds
The numb noses, fingers, and toes
I won’t miss snow getting cozy in my ears
And when I try to dig it out my frosty fingertips push it deeper.
I try and avoid every snowflake in my way
They dance around me, closing in, they taunt me.
I never got to make snowmen or hang my stocking.
Winter break is too short…back to seeing those kids five days a week.
I’m not waiting for the winter end I’m waiting for it to change
…for it will never end.
II.
They’ll miss all the bouquets and chasing butterflies.
The Easter egg hunts and sunny days.
They’ll miss playing outside, able to once again swing those sets and slide those slides.
Lying in the grass and watching the clouds silence the rays.
Spring break at grandmas, she would smother them with chocolate.
They’ll miss the warmth when it runs its course.
I won’t miss this when it’s gone
I never got to meet my grandparents, never spoiled by affection.
The ragweed and pollen clogging my nostrils
The drops of rain landing on the back of my neck
Running a shiver all over my body.
I’d rather stay inside, away from the rain
Away from all their giggles at recess and fun.
I’m not jealous… I’m annoyed. And they’ll stop having fun
When the sun is the only thing in the sky…
III.
They’ll miss the sand castles and picnics
They’ll miss BBQs and fireworks on the 4th of July.
Three whole months of freedom, no math equations, no book reports, no science fairs.
They’ll miss pool parties and melted puddles of ice cream.
Having a ballpark frank at the ballpark.
Family vacations and catching fireflies in washed out pickle jars.
I won’t miss this when it’s gone
The sweaty, muggy, air causing my lungs to work extra hard.
Mosquitoes and gnats and flies and wasps, I could go on naming pestering pests.
They invade my personal space, luckily I’m armed with fly swatters and Raid.
Sand gets in my pants and shoes, I should wear flip flops but every step annoys.
They’re stuck outside while I’m stuck inside, the AC is getting a little chilly.
But they’ll want to beat the heat, and they can’t
Wait until the three unbearable months are over.
IV.
They’ll miss the feeling of the first day of school. New friends
New teachers, new life lessons.
They’ll miss Halloween and all the free sugar rushes.
They’ll miss Thanksgiving and all the sleepy TV.
Football games and hayrides.
Picking apples for apple pie, apple sauce, apple cider.
They’ll miss jumping in fresh piles of leaves.
I won’t miss this when it’s gone
More wind and more rain pressure the trees to drop their leaves.
Back breaking raking and a runny nose.
Annoying school bells and hallway duty.
Weeks and months of headaches full of screams and cries.
I can’t wait until winter break, finally some time away from these kids.
I.
The chapped lip causing winds
The numb noses, fingers, and toes
The flurries which blind my vision.
…
I won’t miss this when it’s gone…some things are worth leaving.

Fire Cupping
I went the other day with my mama to see The Karate Kid. It was a great movie and we both enjoyed it. There were two scenes where Mr. Han (Chan) is healing Dre (Smith)using a Chinese technique called fire cupping (hence the title). He takes a flame and rubs it on Dre's body drawing out the negative energy into little cups. It was pretty cool as well as visiting the mountain where we get to see how ancient kung fu is performed.
I know everyone is like, "It's not as good as the original." And you know what, maybe you're right. But times change, this is a new generation, and kids should be allowed to see something that they can relate to. Anyway...I qualify the film and acting is good. If you don't like it go talk to Jackie Chan about it if you dare.

Land of the Rising Sun
My brother is on a plane to Japan. He's going there for a two week study abroad class type thing and then staying an extra week with some of our relatives. I hope he has fun, I'm sure he will. Then he's staying an entire year during the fall...I think. My mom and I might go over there during the spring.

Flaming Bat Power Up
I need one of those. I went to the ball field today with my girlfriend to hit some baseballs and I am way too rusty for that...I didn't hit anything :( She blames herself for not being able to throw but come on...I used to play baseball I should be able to hit the balls that were close. Anyway...maybe I'll practice more. We also video taped our journey to get ice cream and then a little bit at the field...so I'll put those up eventually.

Just Swel-
tering outside. I think...it looks like it anyway, I haven't been out. I guess this is what happens when I start a blog in summer. I been thinking hard about two writing projects in mind which bring it to a total of three projects. I'm gonna keep them close as I think they will be my aces in the hole. In the meanwhile here's something else I've done.
Blood Stained
I sit staring at the brown and grueling ring wrapped around the drain. The water keeps punching me in the face; I blink it out of my eyes. My hands turn soggy. I think my shower is done.
Still wearing my bleach stained coffee color towel, I examine the washing machine that holds my shirt and pants captive. A soggy damp solitary confinement. I had a stain on my shirt sleeve, an accident.
“He wears his heart on his sleeve” my textbook spoke of a man much like myself. An ego filled with naivety and athlete’s foot. I play hard, push myself to the limit. That’s also how an unfortunate incident occurred.
I was ambushed by our rivals, my mind was somewhere else. They smashed into me and I felt my heart stop. Before my eyes closed, I saw twins, double visions of everything.
I’m alive though. Perhaps it was not by happenstance that I survived. Maybe I’m supposed to live this way.
I feel like a robot, something artificial keeps me alive. My handsome looks have faded, my smile has become extinct. But I still push myself and wear my heart on my sleeve. I just have a harder time getting the blood stains out.

Inflammtion
of my gums will appear if i keep brushing them so hard. Went to the dentist for a cleaning and I suggested I should brush my gums more. Good thing I brought it up because the hygienist gave me some tips. 1. use a soft bristle brush 2. brush lightly 3. get a new brush every month (im not fond of that but whatever)
So my teeth are good, no cavities. Then I went to get my provisional license replaced with a regular one. And mom and I had cracker barrel, pretty tasty. Then picked up a few things.
I came home and tended to the pool. If you know any good pool vacuums I'd love to get the info.
