 <title>All Things Gay</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2007/02/all-things-gay</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I took them all because I thought they would&lt;br /&gt;
help me somehow become a better man.&lt;br /&gt;
I took them every single chance I could -&lt;br /&gt;
had no idea there was a better plan.&lt;br /&gt;
Spent so much money, you will never know,&lt;br /&gt;
blacked out so many times - don&#039;t know myself.&lt;br /&gt;
Somehow I thought that fun was letting go -&lt;br /&gt;
of fears which kept me on some un-cool shelf.&lt;br /&gt;
For years I lived like this, all high and drunk.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>THE ONE I HURT - A POEM FOR JOHN F.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2007/02/the-one-i-hurt-a-poem-for-john-f</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I do remember John from way back when.&lt;br /&gt;
In high school I made sure we would be pals.&lt;br /&gt;
On school&#039;s first day, he asked me for a pen -&lt;br /&gt;
so he could write his number for the gals.&lt;br /&gt;
I wanted him so badly, words can&#039;t say.&lt;br /&gt;
We always were together, that was true.&lt;br /&gt;
We stood so close, he rarely pulled away -&lt;br /&gt;
I never once said, &quot;John, I so want you.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Despite the fact he spoke of girls not guys,&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>A Sonnet to a Bisexual Man</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2007/02/a-sonnet-to-a-bisexual-man</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;You went to see your girlfriend just as planned.&lt;br /&gt;
I sit alone, just staring at the wall.&lt;br /&gt;
You said you&#039;d try to make her understand -&lt;br /&gt;
you wouldn&#039;t let the love we share just fall.&lt;br /&gt;
You went to see your girlfriend and I&#039;m here.&lt;br /&gt;
I stare at clouds inside my coffee mug.&lt;br /&gt;
My heart is racing, mainly out of fear.&lt;br /&gt;
I sure could use your famous, shoddy hug.&lt;br /&gt;
You said you&#039;d tell her everything today.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>My Straight Life</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2007/02/my-straight-life</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;If I was not born gay, maybe - I would.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d find myself a lovely girl to date.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d go to church like every good man should&lt;br /&gt;
and scoff at everyone who isn&#039;t straight.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d blame those faggots for the curse of AIDS -&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d plant my crops by sowing poison seeds.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d only drink those yellow lemonades -&lt;br /&gt;
the pink kinds are for fags and girlie deeds.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d beat up local queers all late at night&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>I hear, I see, I hold.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/10/i-hear-i-see-i-hold</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hear this song,&lt;br /&gt;
it reminds me of you.&lt;br /&gt;
Singing and dancing&lt;br /&gt;
around the room.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I see a half-colored picture,&lt;br /&gt;
it reminds me of her.&lt;br /&gt;
Writing her nickname&lt;br /&gt;
on the white board.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hold my notebook&lt;br /&gt;
close to my heart.&lt;br /&gt;
The one I got there,&lt;br /&gt;
before I left and we were&lt;br /&gt;
ripped apart.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>So badly.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/10/so-badly</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know it&#039;ll get better someday.  I know all of this will start to go away.  But it&#039;s hard.  It&#039;s really hard.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;	I finally cried.  For a few minutes, I just let it out.  My feeling of loss.  Losing the hospital, my two friends there.  I wonder if they&#039;re still there or if they&#039;ve gotten out.  The days seem to take forever to go by, but when I lay down to go to bed, it seems that the days have gone by so fast.  It&#039;s already been two days since I got discharged and it seems like half an hour ago.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Bye for now.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/10/bye-for-now</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;However harsh it may be, I do not plan on speaking to B tomorrow.  She announced to the entire geometry class (none of whom I am friends with) that I was in the mental health unit in the hospital.  Where does she get off doing something like that?  It&#039;s really none of her business in the first place, and it is certainly NOT her place to tell anyone!  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;	I feel my frustration simmering inside, and I&#039;m desperate for something to stop it before I explode again.  I&#039;m searching and searching.  My little sister is being a bitch and I&#039;m about to explode, so I&#039;m going to leave the room.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Homesick...?</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/10/homesick</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t know if I&#039;ve ever been depressed like this.  So depressed that at every minute, my eyes are glazed over, stinging, ready to leak tears.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think I&#039;ve figured out what I&#039;m feeling.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Homesick.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Homesick for a hospital.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I feel like I&#039;ve been adopted and brought to a new home, except I&#039;m with my family and in my own home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t know what to do to even ease this feeling.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m so depressed.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>It&#039;s been a week, and I&#039;ve been in -</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/10/its-been-a-week-and-ive-been-in</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, it&#039;s been a week.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ve been in the mental health unit at the hospital.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You&#039;d think I&#039;d be happy to be home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But I&#039;m really depressed at the moment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was a break from everything.  And I mean EVERYTHING.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was a superficial life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Get up, go to groups, play games, have fun, go to bed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I love all of the staff there.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Especially M.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not only am I going to miss all of the staff, whom I will keep in contact with anyways, but I&#039;ll miss just being there.  I really got comfortable.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>It means n-o-t-h-i-n-g.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/10/it-means-n-o-t-h-i-n-g</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t know.  I think my relationship with my older sister is beyond repair.  I just don&#039;t know.  She continually does things to anger me, upset me, and disgust me.  I make an effort to get along with her, and she just makes extremely offensive remarks.  She came downstairs from her shower, just in a towel, and went to the bathroom to get dressed.  And, what a fucking suprise, her &quot;friend&quot; got up and ran after her and into the bathroom they went.  Together.  With her naked.  Getting dressed.  What a low, sick, perverted thing to do.  Especially with a 10 year old girl in the house, my little sister.  Alchohol bottles in the fridge and freezer, them coming home drunk every night, talking like morons.  I WISH HE WOULD GO AWAY.  I WISH MY SISTER WOULD GROW UP.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Woot!</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/09/woot</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh, what NOW!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The other day in bio Katharine and I were talking about House, and I said &quot;Hey, you know, the guy that plays House is one of the bad guys in 101 dalmations.&quot;  And she said, &quot;No, he wasn&#039;t.&quot;  And we argued about it for a few minutes and I said, &quot;Okay, I&#039;ll bring you proof.&quot;  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And so I got to it just now, and printed stuff off from imdb.com and what I printed off were the cast lists for House and 101 Dalmations.  And oh, what a coincidence!&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why can&#039;t I change my avvy?  It didn&#039;t even say the image was too large or anything, it just won&#039;t change.  Can someone help?  I&#039;ve been trying to do this for months.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Well, forget Michelle   =(</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/09/well-forget-michelle</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;Okay, well.  Forget Michelle.  First of all she smokes pot.  I don&#039;t want to go out with someone who does that, though I don&#039;t really care if my friends do or not.  AND.  This made my heart sink when C told me today.  She thinks that being gay is gross.  So, forget her.  Grr.  =(  Why am I always attracted to the wrong people??  I don&#039;t think I have any chance with Brian, either.  I just don&#039;t think I do.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2005/09/yay</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh. My. GOD.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That was the WORST 15 minutes of my LIFE. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We were waiting for the leukemia test to finish.  I asked the vet&#039;s wife how it shows whether it&#039;s negative or positive.  She said if blue showed up, it was positive.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After 15 minutes... I saw&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;                                  BLUE.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then the vet comes out.  And says.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;                                   IT&#039;S NEGATIVE.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank GOD his wife was mistaken.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was late to school again this morning.  And to top it all off, today was a day 3 and, oh, what a coincidence - I FORGOT LAB CLASS.  I had to stay after today, fill out another fucking plan for &quot;cutting&quot; lab class, and now I have to stay after two more times because of my stupidity.  I have enough shit to deal with without the school jumping down my throat because I&#039;m late a few times.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;	I&#039;m on the verge of dropping out.  And if I decide to do that, I better do it soon before they change the drop out age to 18.  What the hell would I do if I dropped out?  Sit on my lazy ass a little more?  I can&#039;t get a job because my anxiety holds me back.&lt;/p&gt;
