"No homo"

As I sit here in Bio, I am constantly reminded of this one kid that is literally obsessed with using the phrase "no homo". I kid you not, if he says "hello" to you "no homo" will immediately follow the standard greeting. If this can be explained to me, great. But here's my theory.
If you are truly that insecure of your heterosexuality that you must state that you don't imply homosexual feelings after every time you even speak with another male, then you are more than likely homosexual.
I mean really. A normal person should be able to give another male a handshake without stating that he is, supposedly, not gay.
That just really fascinates me. I don't really get why a "heterosexual" person has to declare his supposedly heterosexuality. I mean, people discuss and work with each other all the time without stating their sexuality.
So if someone can develop a better theory, email me. But until then, so long!

Beaches

So, as some of you may know, I'm not a beach person. I don't like sun, sand, the ocean, and I really don't like people that walk and splash and all that jazz. But I have recently discovered that I do like one beach, the OBX beach, on the Atlantic. Its not too shady. And I actually feel happy and secluded there. Its almost perfect.

I have grown to love it. Its just an awesome place, especially for artists like me. Amazing pictures and such. So yeah. I think I'm gonna spend some time here in the future; I'd really like to stay for a week or two with my best friends during like, college. That'd be a blast.

I'm here for a couple more days, so I'm gonna try to make the best of it :D

Friends.

     No matter what any one says, I'm sure that my best friends are gonna stick with me <and put up with my 3 am calls> though this tough season. I can't thank them enough for everything that they have done for me already. They have been truly amazing. I feel as though I have to give a shout out to the following people:

• Sean Cooley
• Nate Langstaff
• Katy Angus
• Danny Angarano

Thank you guys, you have all helped me so much. You have made this time much easier on me, and have given spectacular advice and support. So really thank you guys. And thanks for putting up with the 3 am calls :D

     You never know who your real friends are until you hit rock bottom, at that point, your real friends are the ones that are reaching out to pick you up.

This year is gonna rock.

The game is done, I have won.

     Well, almost two months later I have won the battle. I'm gonna swim. I'm not gonna let some stubborn,asshole,senior hick stop me from doing what I love. It took me awhile to realize this but, if I don't swim He has won. They have won. I wanna win. I have won.
     I'm not gonna lie and say that next season, or even club season, will be easy. It's gonna be hard, it's gonna take a toll on me. But I've gotta push through. I've my got my friends to help through the season, they will save me and keep me sane.
     I guess my biggest question that I pose to my failed-enemies is: Why does it matter exactly?
     So I'm gonna stop regretting this decision and overthinking it. I'm just going to remember this: 

I have a job to do, just like you. I come in swim and go home,just like you. Why should it matter what I do after practice? I will always walk in and do my job, I can only hope you will do the same.
