Post-Human Stats
Jalen is a human/plant hybrid. His body is able to absorb energy from ultraviolet light and use it for self sustenance. Plainly put, he's able to use energy from the sun to conduct  process similar to photosynthesis for energy. As he develops and learns how to control this energy that his body involuntarily absorbs, it gives him several distinct abilities from the average human being.

During his late adolescent years, this ability gives enables him above average strength, speed, and agility. His rate of cellular regeneration becomes above average during this time.

As he progresses into adulthood, his strength, speed, agility, and rate of regeneration continue to improve. He also gains two new abilities: flash step & gliding.

At the peak of his development, in addition to the skills he already has, his cellular regeneration happens so quickly, it's almost instantly. A side effect of this is a dramatic change in the pace of his aging process. It becomes so slow, that his appearance hardly changes at all for decades at a time. He also gets the means to use his power at night, something he's never able to do up until later on in life.

I sold out my innocence a very long time ago. Every little thing that used to pure about me, I willingly threw away and I continue to do so all the time. I find myself eager to indulge in things that are terrible for my spirit, but I gleefully do so even though I never fail to feel horrible when it's all said and done. I don't know why. Am I going crazy? Have I gone crazy already and I'm just really good at covering it? Why do I keep doing this to myself? Why do I feel the need to do it? Why do I want to do it? I don't know.

I've been talking to someone new lately. This person has retained her innocence despite the complete bullshit this world is comprised of. I envy her .. a lot. I even admitted it to her. I wish I was still so close to pure like she is. I'm not putting her on a pedestal, but the way she carries herself forces me to confront my own self destructive behavior? I'm back to asking myself the same questions over and over again.

This hurts. Why do I keep doing it anyway? Why do I find this sick pleasure out of pain? This is not what's meant for me. I KNOW I can do better. I'm worth so much more. I know what I am, what I'm capable of, and how good it is to have someone with the things I embody. Yet... I ignore it in favor of spiritual suicide? Am I going crazy?

It takes a lot to build a true friendship. Most of the forming period involves alcohol, nudity, and general shenanigans. While that is the fun part, we have to learn to deal with one another sober too, which is not always easy. I digress.

Maintaining said friendships when the partying ends is the true challenge. We grow in different directions and make life decisions that may tear us apart. We may not like one another's partner of choice. We may choose different lifestyles and become too different. We may simply just move far away and the distance is what comes between us. Most friends are like seasons. They come and go when they're meant to and it's beyond our control.

To all that, I say this: I don't mind fighting with my friends, my relatives, or anyone I generally care about. I'll say what I think about whatever the dispute is and I won't back down from my stance, especially if I feel like a self harming decision is being made. At the same time, I know when it's better to be silent and just be supportive. I'll do whatever it takes to maintain the bond I have with those that are loyal to me. If they're good to me, I'll continue to do be good to them.

A lot of times, I find myself being good to them even if they aren't good to me. I'm that way because I like to honor the memory of my friendships in good times and bad. This is especially true for one that's coming to an end. If we're going to disagree and go our separate ways, I'm not going to fight with you if you once meant something to me. What we went through before our severance will instead be revered ....

Someday, all of this is going to be over and no one will remember me. I'm just going enjoy being who I am and meaning what I do to some while I still can. The thought of dying doesn't frighten me much, not even in a literal sense. I'm just afraid of losing what I've gained and earned all these years...

I wonder if there's the same loyalty I pledge to others coming back to me. Are they going to be there when I really need them? Is there any one of them that really understands the way that I think, the way that I feel, the way that I am? Am I wanted? Am I needed? Am I really loved? When I'm down and out, these are the questions that I ask myself. The people in my life know without a doubt I'll be there for them, but who's down for me?

I don't ask a lot of my friends. The vast majority of the time, when my back is up against the wall, I don't even tell anyone. I just handle it myself. I handle all my problems alone. I don't like discussing or sharing them. I'm not the venting type either. I just do whatever needs to be done to push through. That's why when I do really need something, I expect those that I would drop everything for to be there for me. This is when people start showing their true colors. Some of them only care about their needs in the end.

I guess a part of me is afraid to find out that someone I care deeply for will refuse to be there for me in one of those rare moments that I reach out for help. "Who gives a fuck if my life sucks?" That feeling is followed by a lot of anger. People talk and talk and talk about how much they care and how they'll go for a friend in need. It's sickening to see those oaths become words without any meaning at all. "I just know one thing: I won't give up."

I live my life vicariously for someone special to me that's no longer here. During his life, he shared a lot of his hopes and dreams with me and only me. I was the only real friend he had. I was the only person he shared his passions with before he passed. Time and time again, he'd always say to me that I reminded him of a younger him. I didn't have a lot of friends during this period either, so that left us with plenty of opportunities to talk about our aspirations. We seemed to have everything in common from our tastes in music to our tastes in women. It was nice to have someone like him to confide in until he passed. In his absence, I carry on his hopes and dreams.

I'm going to do all the things he wanted to do and couldn't in my lifetime. Not only him, but I'm going to take all those close to me with me. I live my life to motivate those around me to do their best at whatever they're doing. I want everyone to be the best person they can be and go as far as they want to. I will settle for nothing less for myself and I expect nothing less from those around me.

To all those that give me the strength and the courage to get through the worst of times, to challenge my own weaknesses, and overcome my own demons, this is my way of thanking them. I'll live my life to set the example to follow. I'll fight tooth and nail not only for them, but with them. I'll do whatever I can do to make sure that everyone that has the will to make it does. I especially owe this to those that paved the way. And even more so to the poor souls that never had a chance.

This life I live is for you.

Relationships were a trivial thing for me. They were something I studied, rather than an experience I longed to be involved in. I didn't care for the ideas of dating, and I still don't.. not by today's standards. I refused to play a part in this elaborate game that people play with one another. I was just curious to see what the "players" were like, and what the object of the game was.

I found that most people involved, young and old, were immature and stupid. That further pushed me away from the idea to get involved with anyone, until I finally had my first few crushes. They weren't anything big. They were the kind of puppy love most young teenagers go through, so that didn't effect me much. I do remember the first time I had really strong feelings for someone and I was treated like a toy. That was more than enough to push me even further away.

After that incident, more and more came to me to try and toy with me, and I rejected them all. I eventually became bitter towards the idea, yet a part of me wanted the happiness that the tradition of romance is supposed to bring. Because of that, I let a few in, only to push them away. It was hard for me to trust anyone with my feelings, and it still is today.

And so, my mind and heart were set with those ideas. I wanted what could be, but not the liars that were attatched to those dreams. To me, they were useless, and they were just as disposable as the lies these players tell one another. That was the story of my teenage years. I was much to distant and angry to accept the feelings of another. Even during the time where it seemed I could hand pick who I wanted, I had absolutely no interest in anyone at all.

I still feel that way today. Don't tell me you love me unless you can prove it. Don't even tell me you like me. What's there to know about me to like? I've got no idea, because I really don't show that much. I refuse to be anyone's pawn. I'm not a fad or a phase, and I won't be treated like one. As far as I'm concerned, traditional romanticism is close to nonexistant, and I won't settle for anything less. I'll still long for it until I find it and I'm able to keep it though.

Mmm, ever since the days this spoke to me I've had some strange infatuation with darkness. Partially to blame would be the obvious reasons which are: anger, depression, anxiety and so on. I had a lot of problems with my family and stupid things I experienced as a child that I shouldn't have.. and at the age I was exposed to sounds like this I was also exposed to how vile and disgusting life could really be. It was the time that the world took me and beat the innocense out of me, and I quickly became a tainted and rather awkward child.

I contemplated suicide a lot when I was too  young to understand the effects it would have on things around me, let alone the obvious I wouldn't be around anymore. That, I didn't care about. It was just that fatal experience. I was mysteriously intrigued by it. Ha. The first time I considered an attempt, I was only 8 years old, but that was years before I became as tainted and dirty as I am now.

Darkness became my companion. I did everything in and with it. I think that's part of what made me so .. I don't even know a term for what I'd call what I was then. Somehow, it gave me strength at the same time. I felt some kind of power by dwelling inside of it. Being surrounded and almost engulfed in it, I felt like nothing and no one could hurt me, and that's how things were.

Life gave me a glimpse of what hell is like, and instead of looking for a light to guide me, I embraced the darkness around me. Oddly enough, the thing most people are constantly trying to get out of saved my life. To this day, no matter what this world attacks me with, I use that same power to push through. It'll knock me down, and I'll scream and shout and claw my way through anyway I can.

Death can't have me yet, and neither can defeat.

As I start to close this chapter of my life, a whirlwind of emotions swirl within me. I feel victorious over the ones that attempted to hinder me. I feel an air of excitement because of the new opportunities coming my way. I feel a new confidence because of the things I've achieved. I feel anxious because there is no telling what I'll end up doing. I feel a bit of anger towards the ones that didn't believe I would get here. Above all the others, I feel a renewed strength. I'm going to go as far as I want to and nothing is going to stop me... or those around me.

I consider my loved ones in every life decision I make. I rarely do anything just for myself. Most of the things I've done and continue to do are to prove a point to them. I want them to go out and do what they want to do, no matter how crazy their ideals are. I want my friends and family to excel in life, and I'm going to leave them with no excuses not to do so through my own example.

When I started my journey here in Indiana, I had nothing but three layers of clothes on and a backpack. I was afforded just one little and time limited opportunity, and I made the most of it. I took my ball to the court and went right for the goal. Soon after, that bag became an apartment of my own. After I settled, I got my own car. After the car, I established myself with a good working history and in the community around me. I took the nothing I had, and made it everything I could ever want.

After establishing myself in society, I took to the academics. After a few trial and errors, I found my niche. Through hell and high water, I fought to stay there and do what was needed to be done so I could make it. While success in this area would definitely do a lot for me financially and socially, those were not my motivations for doing so.

No more excuses. )

Everything happens for a reason, or so I'd like to think. Everything that happens doesn't have to though. It's all depends on the "player of the game". We're all dealt cards that predetermine how our lives will come to be, but nothing is ever set in stone. There's always a wild card that creates sponatenity, change, etc, etc. There's always the special wild card that makes even the shittiest of dealt cards easier to live with. That means there's no such thing as never getting what you deserve, want, desire, need, or any of the like.

A lot of people worldwide are dealt unfair "hands" throughout life. What seperates the successes from the failures are the mindsets. It takes passion and determination to get out of bed (or off the ground or floor in more dire situations) and say "this isn't the life I deserve. I want more and I'll have more". Actually saying that and believing it is even harder to do, but it's worth the sacrifice, worth all the suffering, pain, and agony to say that you've been through the worse of your life and you made something of yourself. It's never ok to give up on yourself. It's never ok to say "this is what my life is and I'm fucked", it's never ok to not believe.

As humans, we all need dreams to get us by. They bestow hopes of a better tomorrow upon us and gives us strength to get up and walk another day. There's also a little of the aforemention confidence and determination thrown in. Sadly, as easy as it is to just dream, it's even easier to lose sight of them as well. When things go bad, everything seems to be in disarray. We just need to remember what got us this far in life, why we're important to others, what our purpose is, and what we want to attain in life. That's never predetermined. It's never fate. You're just failing to use your wild card when you think of things that way.

Things can change if you keep trying. Keep pushing for what you want no matter how bad it hurts. When you attain it, it'll be worth it. The key to "cheating" life is knowing how to keep yourself gathered and what you're capable of. All of us can make some sort of change to the entire world once we're born into this world. We just all don't know how to harness that power...

Believe in yourself and strive for more. Never settle for anything less than what you deserve by any means. If your dream was to be an orthopedist, shoot for it. If you want to be an astronaught, shoot for the fucking stars. (As a matter of fact, one of the Backstreet Boys is trying to be an astronaught now. It may have been one of the NSync guys, but they're all the same to me. He came close to leaving on a rocket before too. Anyway, the point is .. just make it happen. It's good to be a dreamer, but great to be an acheiver).

Don't trust in fate, instead trust in faith. Have faith in yourself, faith in your god/religion, faith in your country, faith in your life, faith is whatever will get you to the level you want to be at in life. It's time to step up to the place. What are you gonna do?

It's so unorthodox, I don't know which side I want to attempt to take apart first. Right now, I can think of only the good things, the things that actually make us happy. A touch, a hug, a kiss, that sweet warmth of another (take that however you want lol). Those intimate feelings are so powerful, that we'll fight eachother for them just to have a little taste. Some sort of contact, even if it's done in jest. Even the happiest of couples fight sometimes, and that's expected. We HAVE to fight or we'll drive eachother mad some other way.

Behind the shades, that's what it boils down to when it comes to making one another happy. I think all of us as a generation need to learn how to communicate our feelings more clearly and just be more honest with ourselves and others. Simple things that don't cost anything at all are key elements to happiness with ourselves and others. It's all about those special little details.. Remembering her/his birthday, favorite color, favorite movie, anniversary date(God, how do people forget this?), and other things that define a mate as individual. Cliche'? Yes, but it's true.

(This post isn't metal driven like the other. For those of you keeping tabs, I'm listening to more R&B as this flows out.)

Individuality.. yes, this is a big problem in relationships these days. This is especially true for younger couples, but some people never grow up. We're always copying something else instead of being true to ourselves, which is usually a kid's thing. The kind of kid that needs to fit in with some group. It screws things up in the long term because the light on the lies will eventually reveal the truth. Everything is camouflaged, and hardly any of it is what it seems to be.

Knowledge of self. How well do we know ourselves? Most of the time, we find ourselves diving into a relationship without knowing what makes us happy. It becomes all about that other person. That's good to an extent, but you have to feel the force too. Most of the time when I feel like I should be with someone instead of being single, I think of all the things I have in my life right now and all the things I have planned for the future, and they make me happy. I have a pretty good grip on what kind of person I like and what I need to make myself happy, so that's a go. It's fun to take blind chances too, I must say. You never know what you'll end up with and that's exciting in itself.

Love is an adventure that can be fun, exciting, dangerous, and deadly even. All of it's roads are uncharted and there's never a set path for anyone to take, yet it's fun to just plunge into anyhow. There are dead ends and there are places we shouldn't go on our various explorations (which we never fail to get into anyway), but I guess fear doesn't have a place in the parallel universe that is love. We have to brave (and stupid) enough to do and go anywhere to achieve anything. When it's all said and done, you're cast of your eden and you have to start all over.

Not even true love lasts forever, not in my world. You never know when you'll slam into an adamant object and find yourself hurled into the air to come crashing down someplace far from the mind. Love doesn't have insurance or seatbelts, so be on the lookout for all the obstacles in the middle of the road. Once those wheels start really rolling, you're stuck on that wagon til the bitter end. I advise everyone that sees this to just enjoy the ride while you're on it. When it's all said and done, you should eventually be able to look back and say to yourself that the crash was worth the memories left behind.

You can't control the passenger seat .. and since both of you are attempting to drive anyway, things will spin out of control. Just make sure you leave with your spine intact. Another opportunity to have at the wild ride will eventually present itself.
anxious_heart: (Cloud & Aeris)
We've all found ourselves in this situation (or the vast majority). You're stuck in a relationship that's killing both you and your mate and you can't get out of it. Why? When it won't work, when it's causing loads more pain than pleasure, why is it still difficult to let go of? Why do we continue to go back to those that hurt us. Maybe we're all secretly masochists. Brawling it out isn't for all of us, though.

There's still blood in your hair and I've got the bruise of the year.

Maybe this strange feeling we call love is much more powerful than even the most emotionally adept of us can control. Why the hell does this happen? Animal instincts and chemical imbalances can only persuade so much. They're not nearly intoxicating enough to move us the way this feeling does.

I gave you all I had inside and you took my love..
.. I keep trying for you.


Because we're born imperfect, we all have a desire to "perfect" our flaws through someone else. Our mates often bring out the best in us and elevate us to levels that would be otherwise unimaginable. There's also the pleasure and pains of various experiences, it's the adventure and excitement that makes it all worthwhile. (Can you tell I'm listening to fucked up love songs while I'm writing this?)

.. She says "soon this will be all over". Well, I hope soon.
So she said "soon I'll let you go.."


There's a sense of comfort in every relationship worth being a part of. It's blind faith, confidence, happiness, and just plain fun. We all want that at some point of our lives. Just to be held, touched, loved in some way. We all want to be that special missing peice that fills the void of another and ourselves at the same time. We're so desperate to attain this state of bliss, the true meaning goes long lost. It's not about love anymore. It's not even about being with someone. It's about not being alone and how much fear it instills in us. This is why women marry men that beat them and some men force themselves to "love" someone that simply uses him for whatever reason.

'cause you're my girl and that's alright.
If you sting me, I won't mind.


We're forcing ourselves to be together. That's why marriages don't last and dating doesn't mean anything anymore. What's wrong with us? We can't make one another let alone ourselves happy anymore. Personally, I fear marriage. I fear starting my own family. If I was granted the pleasure of either, I don't think I'd be able to handle the pressure of losing that. I don't really see either of those for me, but that's another story.

I wonder can we throw away the past so we can stop the screaming nash.
I'm not gonna break down anymore. I've found my way to the door.


I can remember every step I've taken in every relationship I've been in, even in some that could've and would've been, but weren't for whatever reason. I've had quite a handful of those, regretfully. Such a fickle, distant thing I've become. Sometimes I question my ability to feel for anyone in that sense. Twice have I met someone that's everything I could want in a person and yet I didn't have it in me to really reach out. (There were a few other reasons, but we'll leave those to the soap operas.) This isn't some emo "I'll never love again" bullshit, this is me questioning the deeper meaning of this feeling and how I react to it personally.

Nothing's quite the same now. I just say your name now.
But it's not so bad. You're only the best I ever had.


Mkay, a friend came over and broke my train of thought/feeling. I'll finish this when it comes back which will hopefully be tomorrow. Enjoy. Btw, if you can name any of those songs, I like you even more already.

Double X Minus


chika-ka pow!

Double X Minus )

Double X Minus still means a lot to me. It's reteaching me things I've forgotten. The meaning of this song and name could've spared me a lot of what has happened in my life in the past year or so, but I haven't been paying enough attention, I suppose.

What does the song mean? Well, it's about a person realizing that staying in a relationship with someone else is tearing the two people involved apart. It's about things getting so bad, that the mind and heart collide. Logic takes a stand against emotion, and the common sense thing to do since things are so bad are to leave the relationship, but the strong attatchment of the heart prevents it from happening. Eventually, they become two different entities and there's an all out inner war within a person, 'causing further damage to both individuals involved.

After a while, nothing makes sense. A person can even lose their identity in a fight like this. At that point, it's time to let go. It's about realizing that when things reach a certain point, the suffering and fighting has to end. A person just has to learn to let go.

What does the song mean to me personally? I used to teach people that for years and years. My friends used to come to me a lot for relationship counseling, and messages like this helped me to give them the guidance they were seeking at the time. Right now, I am being taught a lesson I used to teach day in and day out by this very song.

What does "double x minus" mean?
The song's title is a reference to women's chromosomes (XX). Minus is taking away the chromosomes, meaning that the song is from a male's perspective. He's learning to leave the woman that he's having these troubles with.

This one is easy. "Anxious Hearts" by Nobuo Uematsu. This song perfectly wraps up the calamity always going on in my head.

It may be confusing as to why I would choose a song that has no lyrics. Music is not about that for me. It's about the way it makes me feel. It's about the way I connect to it. It's about the thoughts and emotions the overall sound of music evokes. That's why I listen to music from other parts of the world that have lyrics in languages I don't speak (Dir en Grey, some Ill Nino, etc). When I feel this song, there's an audible sense of myself flowing through me..

It sounds really sad, cold, and lonely. It almost sounds like a tragedy. There's a very mysterious tone to it as well. There's no telling what happened, just like there's never really any telling what I could be thinking about or what I could be feeling at any given moment. It reminds me of the isolation I find myself in, willingly and unwillingly at the same time. I think of the things I need to overcome to get to where I want to be in life. I remember what it means to fight the good fight with myself so I can be the person I want to be..

There is so much hope in these sounds. I've experienced so many once in a lifetime things and I'm still alive. I still have more to strive for. There are things I need to do not only for myself, but for others that believe in me and I in them. It sounds like the very will to live in the face of adversity. It reminds me of staring death in the face and saying "No, you can't take me yet..."

The most powerful feeling I get is peace. It knocks me out before it's over almost everytime I listen to it at night. Through it all, I am happy with who I am and where I'm going. I'll always want more and to be better, but I can take pride in the virtues I represent and the vow I made to myself to stick to them no matter what.

In the end, it doesn't matter what I'm up against. It doesn't matter how depressed I get sometimes. It doesn't matter if I feel alone or isolated. I'm going to make it. I'm going to get everything I deserve one day. One day, I'll be completely satisfied with myself .. and I'll still want more. Only, I won't want it for me, I'll only want it for the next generation that will carry my flame into the future.

That's what I hear when I listen to this song.
