Star Of My Own

wpid-img-20140627-wa0002.jpg

I want a star that shines just for me
One that shines so bright, only I can see
I want a star I can call my own
Somewhere close so I’ll never be alone
To warm me up when the days are cold
To hold my hand when I get wrinkly and old
I want a star that shines just for me
Please show yourself wherever you may be
I want a star I can call my own
I don’t want some silly imitation clone
What’s the point in silver and gold
When I can have something more daring more bold
A star of my own

I Just Want To Say…Thank You

Thank you for being my friend
Thank you for all the time that you spend
Thank you for staying by me the times when I was blind
Thank you for staying by me the time when I had a lot on my mind
Thank you for opening up yourself to me
Thank you for not leaving even when we disagree
Thank you for showing me I have someone to trust
Thank you for helping me say goodbye to things unjust
Thank you for being there
Thank you for not letting me fall into despair
Thank you for being the friend that you are
Thank you for showing me it doesn’t matter if we’re near or far
Thank you for showing me love
Thank you for making me laugh..well kind of
Thank you for understanding my silly mind
Thank you for showing me you’re one of a kind
Thank you

Pictures From A-Kon 25!

A-Kon 25!

Here it is guys! It’s that time of year again. Time for A-kon 25!!!

What is A-Kon you ask? Well it’s certainly isn’t the rapper! A-Kon is the oldest continually running, anime-based convention in North America! IN NORTH AMERICA GUYS!

This will be my 3rd year in a row that I am attending this con and this one by far will be the best ever!!

If you have never been to a convention I suggest you do so!

It is one of the best ways to jump into this culture and get a view of what Anime is all about!

They have voice actors/events/games/food/shirts anything you can think of!

Here’s a pic of me at A-Kon 23 (a years ago)

Yeah I know I’m not smiling.. I didn’t even know my friend was taking this picture!

Here’s some more from that year! I went to A-Kon 24 as well but I didn’t take that many pictures.

Look forward to an update with all friends, more pictures and me having a good time.

A-Kon 25 Starts Tomorrow! I’m SO Excited!

LET’S GET OUR CON ON!

Change From Within

changes

They say if you want to see change
You have to first change yourself
That’s what they always told me

To me that just seems a little strange
Why should I have to change myself?
You have to set yourself free

If you don’t then your core will stay the same
Falling right back into the same trap
Returning to the same person you’ve always been

If you want change you have to ignite the flame
Look for it yourself there is no map
If you want change you have to change from within

If I Open Up To You

804b1bd2ec44ee648d1bdfb196e8baed-238x300
If I open up to you would you accept me fully?
If I open up to you would you take advantage of my kindness?
Will you use me? Abuse me? Take me for granted?
Will you replace me and leave me stranded?
If I open up to you would you only talk to me when it’s convenient?
If I open up to you would you stick by my side through the weather?
Will you trust me? Would I be able to trust you?
Will you be my friend and be there for me when I need you to??
If I open up to you would you be there at my best and my worse?
If I open up to you would you have the heart to save me?
To be quite honest, I’m scared of people too
To be honest I’m more scared of you
My past is full of broken promises
Lies that should’ve never been told
Times where I should’ve stood up and been bold
But I didn’t because I was scared
People like me always wear a mask
Just because we’re not quite up to the task
I don’t want to be rejected and judged
I want to be alone but not lonely
Even if for this evening only
Then I know that maybe there was a chance
Can you promise me this one thing you will do?
Please don’t let me down if I open up to you

Drift Away

boat-956x537
I want to just drift away
Save all this drama for another day
Ignore all these bills I have to pay
And just silently drift away
Maybe somewhere on a beach by the bay
Maybe on a farm in the hay
Lurking, silently drifting away
I’ll just run away on Santa’s sleigh
To a place where my skies are never gray
Why won’t you let me drift away?
I just want to have fun, I just want to play
Go back? Ha! That’s something I’ll never say
I don’t want to leave, just want to drift away
It’s time to get started no need for anymore delay
My reasoning may be simple or even cliche
But deep down inside I just want to drift away
