Sorry I haven't been visiting this past week; I've been pretty sick and I'm only just starting to feel up to visiting everyone today. I hope you have a great weekend, and I hope you're feeling better, too, after that nasty bug you've been trying trying to fight.
I wonder if it's something in the water...
Hey everyone!
I don't check in quite as often as I should I know.. its been crazy busy the past couple of months- and the funny thing is: I don't even know what the hell has made me so busy suddenly! lol.
Actually, its mostly the writing. Constantly writing.
This past Monday (on the 13th), I finally saw a band that I've been wanting to see for years: Nickleback! Seether was there, too! And not only did I see Nickleback... but I was near the stage- wooohoo!!
It really was an amazing show... my knee was killing me by the end of the night from standing and jumping around for nearly 4 hours but it was worth it. LoL.
Anyways, other than that, I don't have much else to say at the moment. I hope that everyone is doing well and that you all have a wonderful week
I'll try to update again without such a long absence. *hugs to everyone*
Well, I've been trying to post a blog entry the last week- just now finally able to I'm assuming since I'm on the posting page. Ha. For awhile there, everytime I started to post, I got busy or I had problems and couldn't get on the site.
Anyways, I hope everyone is well.
I'm doing better than I had been. Other than my insomnia kicking my ass lately and not hardly getting any sleep. But, I've been on a writing roll at least
I've finished my novel. Wow, my first complete full-length novel!
Normally, I start on novels, get about half-way through and then get writer's block or decide that I don't like where its going without the motivation to start over. lol. But,this time I totally wrote and wrote and finished a complete novel in 4 months. I cried when I wrote the last line of the last chapter lol- I'm very proud of myself and look forward to the process of trying to get it published.
Asides from that, I've been writing a ton of short stories as well
Oh and I got my laptop finally. Before, I couldn't save any of my writing to our desktop computer so I had to handwrite everything out and put it in folders, etc... but got my laptop so now I have a place to store my writing and save my hand from the pain of handwriting 300 pages. LOL.
Anyways, that's about it from me for now. I have to get to work. 
see you around lovelies <3 *huggles*
I've been in a bit of a dark mood lately. One would almost call it emo. I'm not exactly admitting to being a person labeling themselves as emo... but thats how I've been feeling. Despite my distates for labels.
Anyways, its a good thing I have a release for my emotions however. I write a lot. Novels, short stories, poetry... its always been my outlet for anything I need to release. The last couple of weeks its been like that for me.
I figured I would share some of my recent writing here. A short story and a poem. You don't have to like it. Not everyone will and I understand that. Some people may relate with the work. Some may not. Either way, I hope you can get a sense of my writing style from it and the mood I've been in at least. I can't share details on why I feel this way so I'm sorry.
My short story-
Death of a Heart
My heart died today.
The last few stitches busted and broke. It decided it couldn't hold anymore repairs.
After being beaten and bruised; broken and tossed- my heart finally gave up. I had been laying in bed, crying through the pain, when my heart made its decision... After years of getting put back together, it wanted to end.
It no longer wanted to try. No longer wanted to allow the false hopes in to barely hold it together- only to be ripped away and torn apart. No longer wanted to shatter into pieces, scattered on the floor, for me to have to pick up.
So, through the night it plotted its end. Conspired to commit emotional suicide and give in. Tearing each stitch, each thread, one by one. It turned black and icy cold; pulling all of the hurt and feelings from my body.
The darkness surrounded me, swallowing me whole. My head tilted back in defeat while my eyes lost all life. The pain slowly began to disappear.
With a sigh, it waved a final goodbye.
Then, my heart died.
a poem-
Silence
My mind wanders aimlessly in fogged clouds
What happened to yesterday?
The darkness consumes me-
Following my every move as I move through the past.
Weight of the world crashes upon me-
I can’t think straight or continue on.
What happened to the smiles?
Now the tears flow freely down my cheeks,
And I remain silent.
Watching everything tumble down around me-
I try to move forward-
Only to be pulled back.
What happened to the laughter?
I scream out inside-
Burning my throat.
My heart falls apart into a million pieces-
Shattering loudly like glass hitting stone.
The clouds overwhelm me,
Blurring my vision.
Fear stabs at me-
Keeping my emotions numb,
I was once alive- now I just survive.
I try to force fake happiness-
But it hardly shows.
I am empty and cold-
Hidden away my emotions are;
And I remain silent.
Thanks for reading... and thanks to all that have remained my friends here 
P.S. I will try not to wait so long to post again. *hugs*
Really... as much as I LOVE winter... I hafta say I hate the whole sick part. lol.
I haven't posted recently, because I've been exactly that. Sick.
First it was strep throat... then tonsilitis.. now I have a sinus infection and my chronic bronchitis is giving me that horrible, heavy, hurting cough that I'm sure you all have known about at some point in your lives.
Blah. It sucks.
Anyways, thought I'd leave a quick little update to send my love and I will update soon.
Oh.. and in the meantime, if you'd like to check out any of my writing (novels, poetry, etc).. I just joined this cool writing community where I am maintaining a portfolio. www.booksie.com/clwhitfield
*hugs to all*
