Well guys it has been a rather long time since my last post. Things have been really crazy I can't even describe. But I'm back and that is all that matters.
So today I have a rather interesting topic for you today. It is something that has been tugging on me for some time, Love. Lol so I figured why not make this my long return post, and get you guys thinking. And don't worry this post won't be boring.
So first off let's set up the story. I had a friend by the name of Terri. She is the same age as me. Well she is a girl that I would call a girl that likes to be with guys. That is the clean term for some of the virgin eyes reading this. But I also can't forget to say that she demands attention constantly.
Ok so moving on. After a long break from being friends back in august, we started talking again in January. Some of you might remember from my first blog post. We mainly started talking again because we both had some juicy details on her ex gay lover. But at the same time she was talking to him as a love interest. I warned her from doing this, but who can stop a girl who is supposedly in "Love". She did it anyway, but had her love life broke in two when she found out that he was having a gay sexual affair right on the other side of the wall from her. I could of said I told you so, but I'm not that mean. But anyways that is how our friendship sort of came back together.
Ok so several months later, after several guys, and several fights between me and her, we somehow decided to go to prom together as friends. I was rather excited since my previous date had fell through. And I think she was too.
Several weeks before the prom, she confesses to me that she likes me. I mean like me like me. In a way I think I had always known, but yet I continued to be friends with her. I told her that her feelings for me would effect how we were friends, and how I acted around her. But the way she acted towards me bothered me, and that created several fights.
Eventually I started to get the feeling that she felt like we were an item. Because the week before prom I promised to go walk with her, but when I had to help my mom pay bills I had to tell her that I had other commitments, and she blew up, saying that I always blew her off. Eventually she found every little reason to be mad at me. I don't know why, but we somehow got over it.
Next day or two she kept going on and fighting, and she then had the nerve of telling me how I should fix my hair. And i'm like excuse me? And when I told her that there would be no chance in hell that I was wearing my hair a certain way, she blew up again, a day before prom. She thought that talking to my sister and mom would change my mind. But I laughed because she she pulled that stunt my mom told her off and said that I have been fixing my own hair since I was born, and since I wasn't telling her how to fix her's, she had no right to tell me how to fix mine. (Thanks mom!!)
Anyways that shut her up really quick. Ok so here we are, the day of prom. Everything works out rather well. I got the car washed and cleaned and everything. After nearly dying of thinking I was having a allergic reaction from dinner, we had pictures, then made it to prom. At first we didn't dance because nobody else was really dancing either. But eventually everybody started to congregate, and so did we. Then all of a sudden she sends her ex boyfriend a txt threatening him not to come to prom with her there. She was bawling, and I'm like WTF!!! I told her that he wasn't going to ruin our prom night and that she just needed to get over him. She actually gave me her phone to hold for the night...and we started dancing.
The dancing part was rather...well interesting. We started off with being shy and finally I got over it, and started umm I guess you call it "Grinding". But I only did it thinking that we could dance like that and walk out still thinking of each other as friends.
After prom, my dancing was all she talked about. The day after that loooong night, she kept talking about it...and kept talking about how she wanted to just kiss me and stuff like that. And being a friend, I felt very uncomfortable hearing her say this stuff about me. So I told her it was awkward, and I only intended that we danced as friends. And of course she reataliates saying that if I danced like that I would have danced like that with everyone else. So here comes this big fight about how she likes me and how i led her on.
This continues on and finally I had to start ignoring her. But that sure didn't stop her. No she then starts talking to my sister and my friends trying to get them to talk to me. When I finally do she starts talking about suicide, and how that is all she has left. And i'm like get over yourself your acting just silly. And she just kept going on and on.
Days later, she accuses me of Drug Abuse. Funny huh? Apparently she was using that as a reason for the way I was acting towards her. But personally I would have been better off using drugs than take the verbal beatens that she kept throwing at me.
Finally I just had to block her. It hurt me to block the one person that I talked to the most. But when people act that way to you I think you have no other choice.
Eventually I had to remove her from my block. She was using other methods to stay in contact with me, which only gave me a bigger headache. She keeps txting me, but now I have a new attitude towards her, an apathetic one. I think it pushes her buttons a little bit quicker which is fun because she pushed mine 6 weeks ago.
But anyways, I hope this blog helped you understand how much someone's love for someone can actually hurt something more worse; a friendship. And that is something that can never be repaired.
Hope you enjoyed the blog and I will plan on updating very soon.

Chucky Cheese
Well guys I have returned. I'm actually proud of myself for actually starting this blog and keeping it regular. But it's only the first 2 days so I shouldn't pat myself on the head just yet.
Today was a very good day. But after it is all over with, my feet hurt. It started off with laying in the bed til around 9, and I kept thinking it was earlier since the power went out for two seconds and messed up my alarm clock. I laid around until i finally decided to text a few of my friends. My friend, Lindsey as some of you will remember in my last blog, was one to text me back. I asked her how her surgery went yesterday, and she said that it didn't happen because the medicine for the thursday surgery gave her an allergic reaction and her hand is now all swollen up. They say that they won't be able to perform the surgery until monday if they are lucky. So keep thinking about her.
But anyways, today was the day that my family went over to the city 2 hours away to meet with the other part of my family and celebrate my 8 year old sister and my 5 year old cousin's birthday. It is really a pain to travel that far to have a decent birthday party. Thank god I had my Ipod filled with Delta Goodrem music and my cell phone with me (the 2 best things made for human kind!).
Before we went into Chucky Cheese, we stopped by Circuit city to look at the sales. As some of you may know, that store is going out of business and is trying to sell the stuff cheap before they have to close shop. But as usual my dad said that we needed to wait to buy stuff until the prices are 50-75% off. But by that time everything will be sold out. Oh well.
Now on to the good part. We went into Chucky Cheese and met with our family. It was really good to see them after so long. And of course all the cousins got together and showed off the new gadgets. I had the Voyager, and my cousin had the Iphone. The Iphone was really cool. It had internet and you could get on youtube and all that good stuff. But I really didn't like the texting. It kept being in the form of Instant Messaging. I really prefer my messages to stay seperate.
But yeah, CC was fun. We played games and feasted on pizza and cake. And then we played this game where it gave off up to 3,000 volts of vibrations, and you had to hold onto it until it was through. It was really fun, but your hand didn't agree after you let go.
Next we went to the mall that wasn't that far away. There we looked for a Tux (for junior and senior prom and bnats). And then we went into Build a Bear, and Hollister. And then we finally retired to Crackle Barrel for a good country dinner. It was good, but I was craving pasta. Then we said our goodbyes and parted ways. And then it was 2 hours of crampness until we finally returned home.
And now I am sitting here on the computer. I am waiting for my cat to finally return from his long hunt, or lounging around. And it is odd, but i'm also talking to a band member on myspace. He is from Fazeshifters. I don't know if he is a solo singer or what, but he has pretty good songs. Anyways, he has sent me comments and I have replied, and usually this doesn't happens, but he replies back! You usually don't see that.
Haha well thats all folks for today. Tomorrow I'll be on to let you know about my sisters birthday party at the skateway (hopefully I can fit into those skates from 7 years ago...) and I'll talk about the superbowl, and how much I will have rather watched the Law and Order marathon!! See Ya!!

Reliving the Past...Are we safe?
This is a post that I made on the Delta Goodrem forums and I thought you might be interested in it:
Ok so I was watching the movie Flight 93 which retells the story about the passengers that fought back against Terror and stopped the flight from hitting the Capitol, or the white house, or whatever the target was (we may never know what it was). But anyways, the movie was so suspenseful that it got me thinking. And usually every 9/11 movie or documentary gets me thinking. I have analyzed tons of stuff relating to this for years, and I am just so fascinated with it (not that it is a good thing, but because it is apart of our history now.) Also, the inaugoration of Obama got me thinking about this too.
So I have told myself that the plans on Sept. 11 were ingenuis. The terrorists planned it out so thoughroly. We all know that it was years in the making. They used the one thing at the time that no one would have dreamed of using...the air; planes. I don't think anybody thought that people would use the planes and use them as one big weapon to strike out something. I guess that is why the security for planes wasn't that great. Once the planes were up, and it was taken over, there was no way that the terrorists could be stopped. Sure, the planes could have been taken down, but the call had to be made by the president. And since he was taken away, the call couldn't be made. And the pentagon gave them limited resources to secure the air, and ground (and then they had their own attack to worry about). And then of course, nobody really knew that they were planning to take the planes down and hit something. They just thought it was a normal Hijacking. So while the officials fiddled around, the terrorists got closer to their goal.
Another thing that was so smart was that they picked targets that would keep America from functioning. Our financial system (World trade centers), our military (pentagon), and our government (the capitol, but the target was not hit due to 93's ambush). I think that if they really wanted to terrorize the nation, they would have destroyed some sort of symbol to show that our freedom comes at a price (such as the statue of liberty or the white house. The World trade center was also a symbol...a symbol of world associations and trading.). Also, if they wanted to creat some more chaos, they could have created a state of panic. By trapping a large amount of people in one area. And the only place for that would be NYC. Destroying the bridges and tunnels in and out of the city would cause millions of people to go into panic. And it would have taken hours, if not days, to find a way to transport people off of the island. And there is no telling what would have happened if they were trapped, while half of the city was falling down.
Also, they picked the perfect time to do it. And that is because we had a new president. Even though I think he did all he could to protect the nation, I'm sure that he was took totally off guard. And I'm sure that it made the situation harder for a new president than it was for a older and more experienced one. So anyways, that was my analysis. So now I have a few questions:Now that we are in a time with a new president, do you think that we are more vulnerable for an attack? I know that the security procedures haven't changed, but do you think that they are more interested in attacking now or later? And if so, what do you think they would do since their most secret weapon is now under tight protocols. Or do you think that is even possible now? Also, on the day that Obama was sworn in, thousands of troops and National Guards were sent to D.C to prevent an attack. With that area air lock tight, do you think that it could have weakened the other big cities for an attack? And also, due to the toxic air that was in the city that day, more people that was there are coming forth saying that they are getting lung cancer or some sort of cancer, relating to those attacks.
Next, do you think that the attacks on WTC was the first step into our failing economy? Lets think about it. The WTC was the center of our buisnesses. Even though the companies had a backup center, billions or trillions of dollars was lost. And on the day that the stock exchange reopened another few trillion was lost (making it one of the worst days on wallstreet.). They should have kept it closed for a longer time period...but who knows if it was going to help. That day has left a huge scar on our economy for the past 8 years, and i'm thinking that it was the first step to a bigger problem (and nobody was able to grab hold of the situation until it was too late). And because of this, it has trickled down to other countries, making this a world wide problem.
BTW...I just wanted to say that I think that Australia is the most peaceful place on earth. Of all my 17 years on this earth, I have never heard of a conflict. And now, they don't even mention if that nation if in the same financial crisis. But of course, you guys may have the same problems, and I just don't hear it.
Well that is all folks. I hope you enjoied this bit of opinion. I will post a regular blog up later today.

First Log
Haha well this my first blog post folks, so bear with me.
Haha so where do I begin? I guess i'll start by saying that my name is Tyler (bet your didn't figure that one out!). I am 17 and living in western NC in the USA. There isn't alot to see where I live, unless you want to drive two hours to go see Atlanta. But I really like it here, despite it's smallness. I don't plan on moving, even though alot of my dreams are outside of this town. But I would only move if I was a singer on tour or a senator (fingers crossed). My favorite artist is Delta Goodrem by far. She has been my inspiration since I first heard her around this time last year. She has helped me through some difficult times, and I guess helps me prepare for the difficult journey that may be ahead. And also I own the site called Chatter World.
So let's see. Since you know somewhat about my background we can get on to important matters...like my day at school!! Haha yah!! But first of all, a sidenote, my best friend, Lindsey, had her other one of two surgeries today to have a blood vessel tumor removed. I belive that she had it this morning, but i'm not sure since she has yet to text me. I bet she is really groggy. But anyways, just keep her in your prayers. I'll keep you posted on that.
Where was I? Oh yeah, my day. I started off in US History class, where we went over our test (which was an 80 or higher) and I had to recite my song that I wrote based on a historical time in US's history. I picked the beginning of Washington's presidency. My teacher wanted me to sing it, but I told him I couldn't (you will soon realize that is a lie lol).
Then we went on to English. Even though I like the teacher, the class is overall boring. I thought it would be really interesting since I am stronger in History and English than I am in math and science. But oh well. We just took a quiz and started on a play.
Haha now you will know where my lie takes place. My next class was the B-Naturals, which is the elite musical group in the school (and the only elite group like this in the state). It was good as always, and was even better since one of the basses was out sick today and I could actually hear my part for a change...haha that sounded mean.
Then last but not least we went to Buisness Law. And that class is basically the stuff you see on Law and Order or CSI (i prefer L&O). But yeah, we had a test and I made a 100!!!
Then after that I zoomed home to rest. At around 5 I went with my mom to a meeting which was very good. And then we went and got supper. And at around 7 my best friend sorta had a nervous breakdown because one of her ex-boyfriends was fooling around with a guy (long story...haha). So to cheer her up I picked her up and we spent the night sipping on virgin strawberry dackaries (if that is how you spell it) and eating chips and salsa.
So that is basically it. Just an average day in the live of Tyler. Haha wow I'm impressed with the first blog I made. Well thats all for now folks!! Make sure to tune in tommorow for another exciting blog!!
