OK so at about 4am I was just about to fall asleep after being up for 2 hours because I was having panic attacks. And just as I was laying down the freaking fire alarm goes off. I freaked out but then realised that it was probably just some drunk kid who puller the alarm as this happens quite a lot in my residence hall. So I grab a jacket and my keys but leave my shoes in my room thinking that we would be let back in after like 10 minutes. I'm walking down the stairwell I see yellow smoke…

After living in Germany for some 8 months, learning the language, culture and people, I am finally ready to do what I have dreamed about for almost 8 months..... Read the Harry Potter series in a foreign language! I am about to start Harry Potter und der Stein der Weisen, everyone wish me luck. DFTBA

There's just one more week to go on my Kickstarter project! Hopefully I can get some more attention, so we can get the rest of the backers needed to hit the goal.

fingers crossed

A lot, actually...

I know I've mentioned my jewelry making and stuff in a past blog post that I did on here and ideas that I have for collections and stuff. But now, I am looking for a name that will encompass it all. Something that will unify everything that I am trying to do with my craft as a jewelry maker and designer. I make jewelry with gemstones, vintage elements, and even rehab vintage jewelry. 

The collections I have come up with are as follows...

Annoying Girls: In Relationships

In which Hank rants about seventeen different things that bug him. To be clear, this is not healthy and I kinda wish I hadn't done it because I was stressed out for the whole day after I filmed it. But, yeah, this stuff seriously annoys me. The rants are as follows:

1. American Cheese is not Cheese

2. 90% Fat Free means 10% Fat

3. Everything is…

It's supposed to be spring time here in Iowa with beautiful flowers, warm sunshine, and shirtless guys playing ultimate frisbee. But now we can't have that because it's snowing here in Iowa. UGH!!!! I like snow in it's correct season, not when it interfers with my getting poffertjes at the Tulip Time festival. GRRR!!!!! I AM A GIANT SQUID OF ANGER RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!

I agree with most of these but number three snagged my attention and made me think of John Green.

Her eyes warm my blood

Her mouth puts thunder in my veins

And I've long abandoned my brain

My thoughts rest inside her now

Her lips taste like fire on my tongue

And her lips taste like water to my soul

She lights an oven inside my chest

She cools my heartache and make me whole

When I see her body's silhouette

My arms reach out on their own

I need her fire in my mouth

I need her warmth in my bones

And for tonight I'll trade skin with…

So I was browsing the internet (as I do) and I come across a figure, a disturbing figure. The fact that 27 million, yes million people are enslaved in the modern world, thought slaves were tribal Africans bought over to the USA for use on plantations? Think again. Slavery is still around and very very real. They are used for work, but not working on plantations, but sex, yep, the so called "love" act that benefits the procreation of humanity is being exploited on people who are being forced…

Depression is a serious thing that kids will misunderstand, sometimes even adults will pass it off, too; but never minimize the cry of a person. At 14, for two difficult years, I was struck with an overwhelming amount of sadness. Minutes of letting it out turned to hours then days and into months. I couldn't understand why I was feeling the way I did. Fear told me I was being a joke without reason, but my heart told me there was something more. I just needed to take a breather and try to…

Sometimes, when I look at a man my heart swells in pain and my ankles feel cuffed in place. Insecurity grips my pounding heart with razor sharp claws and every moment is drowned with the color of night. The pain can be tolerated because of my experience of tolerating it, but it's so tiring. Flashbacks reoccur in the wake of a breathe and I can't help but whimper as I start to remember how my own flesh feels like. It feels so skittish and it shivers like currents uncontrolled by nature. I…

For the first time in more than 110 years we again have a king. King Willem-Alexander.  King Willem IV. Wilempie. I liked queen Beatrix, she had little problem keeping business and personal separate. I found that a good quality, it meant that she could see things more logical than emotional.

I like the monarchy. It is like the ace in a set of cards. In some games it doesn’t have any meaning or value. In other games it is the best card to have. Our monarchy stands above the government.…
