I thought I would be cool and stay up late. That was a mistake.

I went to bed at 4:30 this morning, then woke up at 7:30 to visit Rutgers. Gay.

How was it?

For the Young Writers Camp I go to, we have to write a story or essay or something. I wrote a paper about Straight Edge. My dad read it last night and today he asked me why don't I X up my hands. I told him "My mommy doesn't let me"

My parents used to think I was edge.

If I told my mom what edge was and that I was it, she wouldn't believe me.

It was pretty gay. Wasn't that bad, some speach stuff about admissions and payment, then a bus tour of the campus. Worth it if you plan on applying to Rutgers. I don't really want to go, so I wasn't to happy about waking up at 7:30 for it.

No one thinks I'm edge. Everyone thinks I have A.D.H.D or that I'm a pot head and take pills...

So you're not going to Rutgers?

Why? I tried explaining the whole thing to them for some reason because my mom said she knew some people at her work who were edge. And when I explained what it was, she took it as I was edge. So at Thanksgiving she's all "Want some wine Chris? OH WAIT, your straight edge." Then when I got caught drinking they were like "What happened to straight edge?"

My past. She'd think I was just trying to gain trust.

That sucks. You seem pretty serious though, especially with the caffiene thing.

I'm using it more as a safety school. It is a great school, there are just other schools I'd rather go to.

Heh, thanks I guess.

How'd you like the Carry On stuff? Memorize The View yet?

What else are you looking at?

No really, it was a compliment. I really respect people who are edge.

I listened through the CD once. It's sick as hell but I haven't memorized yet. Don't you worry, cb will soon be singing along with the best of them.

[QUOTE=oopyman]Are you edge?[/QUOTE]
Ya I'm edge. I think they presume that its because a lot of my friends smoke pot and get wasted.

[QUOTE=cbmartinez]What else are you looking at?[/QUOTE]
Penn State, Uni of Maryland, Uni of Vermont, and some others which I forget. If I don't get into Penn State (unlikely) I'll probably go to Rutgers.

Nice, what are you looking to major in.

I had no idea. Basically everyone I used to associate with thinks only about getting wasted. It's a shame. Once I got caught by the cops I started to realize how much of my time and my money I'd wasted, and I refused to continue. I've made better friends now, but I still hang out with the ones who aren't deadbeats.

Oh that sucks. I've come accross pot several times. My friends have offered it to me. But the good thing is that they don't presure me into it, they respect the fact that I'm edge. My friend got in a sh'it load of trouble because he was caught with it on campus. He got expelled and went to another school. He then went to court and now he's on probation but he still gets drunk and high. He's a pretty cool guy but it's kind of bad. He's one of those gangster mexicans but latley hes been gettin into a lot of metal and metalcore.

Oh he also has to go to therapy now.

Therapy sucks. Such a waste of time.

My other friend has to take therapy for anger management, he threatened to kill his step-mom.

I had to go to therapy because I was screaming "I'LL ****ING KILL YOU YOU ****ING CUNT!" in my sleep. Heh, it was in Hawaii too, with my mom's friend in the same room as us. How embarrassing.

That made me lol.

Hahahaha, my mom was gonna send me to theraoy because she thought I was depressed....go figure

I had to go to therapy for a extremely severe case of OCD. I chose not to take the medication route and I'm just using a pragmatic technique.

punker just started death therapy.
