i sleep alone on a bed built for two.
i close my eyes so no one can see.
when i lay still and listen to the silence
your presence overwhelms
who am i, the one to complain.
love is a journey, a lesson, a game.
to trust is to live with my heart looking forward
holding sand in my hands.
the darkness hides truth
eyes with age tell of tragedy
scars adorn the back of my heart
the forgotten embrace
echoing eternally in my thoughts
yesterday murders hope
the burden placed on your perfect shoulders.
a life sentence for anothers’ sin
better to lie alone?
better to die alone

I woke up so abruptly this morning, I’m not sure what to do with my time.

Jessica doing her sumo impression

I’ve noticed a reoccurring problem on the Cal Poly campus that I’ve never had problems with anywhere else. It’s walking into people. On this campus, I see someone walking toward me from the opposite direction and I start to get anxiety. I know, when I start moving to my right or left, the other people will start moving in that same direction. Eventually, we continue this little dance until we narrowly miss hitting each other.

I don’t know why it happens. It’s to the point that sometimes I make very abrupt changes of direction to avoid the near misses.

Went to Hotel Cafe w/ Ingrid Michaelson

The concert was a lot of fun. I arrived an hour late coming from Jennifer’s birthday bowling bash but a part of me is glad that I did because I stood for the whole concert. (That sentence was long)

Some of my favorite songs of the night were: Cary Brothers – Blue Eyes. Ingrid Michaelson – Die Alone

At one point, Ingrid Michaelson sang with the ukulele Radiohead’s Creep. It was pretty novel to play the song with a ukulele but overall the song itself was somewhat pedestrian.

Standing in potluck line, thinking to myself that I may have just had one of my worst praise sets.
Angela – Hi Tim, I really enjoyed praise today.
Tim – Thanks. I’m sorry. I’ve seen you around church for the last month, but I don’t know your name.
Angela – I’m Angela
Tim – Oh, Hi. I’m Tim

During potluck
Matt – Hey, Sarah’s friend thinks you have a nice smile.
Tim – Oh, Really?
Matt – Yah, it’s him. (pointing)
Tim – What the..
Matt – Yah, I was thinking the same thing.

Sunday, driving to basketball
Jonathan – Yah, You didn’t lag
Tim – What do you mean?
Jonathan – You just left the diner. Usually, you just stay around for a long time.

Sunday afternoon, on my Facebook
Arthur –
“todays analysis

1. nice cutting
2. nice passing
3. nice shooting

A+”

Sunday night, at Jessica’s
Jessica’s Dad – (something in Japanese)
Tim – (somehow I understand what it means)
Jessica, her dad, and I all laugh
Jessica’s dad looks at me laughing.
A confused thought goes through his face
He then laughs harder.

Sorry, the last one isn’t much of a quote.
