“If you’re alone, I’ll be your shadow.
If you want to cry, I’ll be your shoulder.
If you want a hug, I’ll be your pillow.
If you’re happy, I’ll be your smile.
But anytime you need a friend, I’ll just be me.”-Author Unknown

“Steaks are warm.”-Camillo

I think this is about the fourth time I have redone this one paragraph. Let’s see what becomes of it. Here we go:

How are you doing? (I thought I should ask you because every once in awhile you realize how you actually feel…) My name is Keegan. I’m not sure where I’m supposed to be in my life right now, or if I’m even actually living up to my potential. I think my life is like a whirlwind of mistakes, secrets, anger, and somewhere in between I became content. Somehow, I find myself writing poetry more often. I guess I can’t form what I am trying to say in actual sentences or paragraphs.

Annoyances (Because pet peeves does not cover it):
-My hair. (It has moods)
-Saying you have a question, yet you can’t say it…
-Loud gulping.
-I hate talk show radio. Music is fine, but those people’s voices are trying to hard.
-People saying, “You really do have ADHD, don’t you?” or “You really should be proud of yourself, I mean I would of never of guessed you had it.” Seriously? Where is the need to say that? I hide it? No, sorry, this is the way I am.
-Movies that mock disabilities to make the movie funnier. It really is just rude to the kids who actually live with Autism or Down Syndrome.
-When I can hear the music from an ipod, but I’m not wearing the headphones. (It’s like a little whisper reminding you how stupid you are that you didn’t bring your ipod.)

Likes:
-Photography
-History
-Writing (Um, obviously)
-Blueberries (Really, all fruit.)
-Soccer
-Cooking (I just do. My family does. Really, I’m not kidding. Come over for dinner and see what meat my Dad has cooked or what my mom has in a pan.)
-Plurk (Plurk is awesome.)
-Music
-Reading
-Film
-Shirts with weird sayings. (The ones that make people stare and read.)
-Signs. (Signs that say random things. I bet you are seeing how a “STOP” sign has a greater meaning than just abiding by the law.)
-Rubber duckies. (Yeah, I have them from camp and haven’t gotten another one since then, but my sheriff, cheerleader, and surfer dude are still entertaining.)

-Camillo hits my foot at Cold Stone…

Me: You wanna play footsies with me?
Camillo: No! I don’t wanna play footsies with you!

-“It’s the friends you can call up at 4am that matter.” – Marlene Dietrick

-I’m not perfect…

-I have a tendency to second guess myself.

-I’m known has the very sarcastic person in my family.

-I have great friends.

_“That ain’t no etch-a-sketch, this is one doodle you can’t undo, Home Skillet.”-“Juno”

-“You can not run away from weakness; you must fight it out… or perish. And if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?”-Robert Louis Stevenson

-“Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get.”-Forrest Gump

-“Any change, any loss, does not make us victims. Others can shake you, surprise you, disappoint you, but they can’t prevent you from acting, from taking the situation you’re presented with and moving on. No matter where you are in life, no matter what your situation, you can always do something. You always have a choice and the choice can be power. “-Blaine Lee

-“If the cookie crumbles, what’s the point in eating it?”-Me

-“No, I don’t want a cookie.”-George

-“Are you laughing out loud, or in your head?”-George

-“This chaos, this calamity.”-Camillo (Lyrics to Wine Red by the Hush Sound)

Keegan (Me): Hey, these tomatoes are weird.
Camillo: Tomatoes are evil.
Keegan: No, it’s just this tomato.
Camillo: No, it’s all tomatoes.
Keegan: But, you’re eating ketchup.
Camillo: So?
Keegan: There’s tomatoes in there.
Camillo: Uhhh, right, well…There still evil.
Keegan: Tomatoes are evil, but not Tamatoes because there pasteurized?
Camillo: Yeah.
Keegan: You weirdo.

-George and our text conversations…

George: Haha, you’re asleep. I’m AWAKE.
George: I’m gonna enjoy this moment.
——The Next Morning
George: You went to sleep early last night.
Keegan: I was tired. So what did you do to celebrate your victory?
George: I had coffee.
Keegan: LOL.

-=]=]=] “It’s so awesome it gets THREE SMILEYS IN A ROW !!! how awesome is that??!!! lol hehe” -Camillo

-George, Jamie, wants me go to La Salle, but I say no…He hates when I call him Jamie, but hey he calls me Nageek, so it’s a fair trade… Jamie also takes amazing pictures of flowers, they are so cool… He complains about everything that doesn’t go his own way, which is really funny, and is a quality I don’t see often no matter how annoying it is…I love you, My Buddy, My Friend… I’ll Miss You When We Go To High School…

-Camillo, I made that up and don’t you say I didn’t Camille, she’s going FSHA, but I want her to go to Mayfield so we can hang out when I go to Maranatha, but it’s her decision…Camillo is many things, in a good way… To many from a distance, she may look punk, but when you look closer she is a best friend… She has an obsession with the color green which even she doesn’t know why… She’s a dancer, although she complains about it constantly… A drama and photography freak… She’s all things wrapped in one…including my friend…I’ll Miss You…

-The thing about these two people you’ve never met…is that they completely get me, and I hope I get them. But anyway, I’m sure they’ll go off into this great big world, and years later I’ll see George as a CEO of a photography company he creates, even though he says he’ll go into early retirement and be a stock holder. Now, Camillo, I can see her as a world famous photographer or Best-Selling Author, even if she says it will never happen.

George= ACORN

Camillo= wytherwings
