| I never use this but cant bring myself to shut it down. It was my first online community, and back in the day I refused to myspace for my loyalty to xanga. Ive been on here since 2005 so I just cant delete for no reason. I will just continue my current course of action; as to say, none. Inactivity is my answer

| I almost didn't post this
I
know most of you had heard of the girl who committed suicide because
someone bullied her on myspace. I never really looked into it but
someone had brought it up in discussion so I thought I would do some
research.
The local newspaper article
Read the article before you continue
I
had heard the controversy over Megan Meier's suicide but never really
poured into it until today. After reading several other related new
articles I decided to do a little e-stalking of my own. You would
think these families would be a little smarter with their information
if even I (only a half-Asian!) could find out all of this.
Now
I am always the first person to say, if someone bothers you online,
block them, who cares, its just myspace. But I am not 13 and I remember
how I was at the time. I think I wouldn't care as much if it was two
peers but instead it was a Mom going after a child her own daughter's
age, and involving other kids as a prank. One of my biggest pet-peeves:
ADULTS WHO THINK THEY ARE KIDS. Adult to connect with kids, try to be
the "fun" parents, take party in the rumors and social lives of their
children. Its not only ridiculous its pathetic. I grew up in a
neighborhood where alot of Mom's married young and think they are still
"Suzy HighSchool" playing the popularity game.
I
remember being a kid in middle school, before myspace, when people had
bulletin boards online (most of you kids reading this will have no idea
what those are). I remember the fake rumors and name calling that
people would dish out. I know its a small impact but maybe if this
family would feel their presence in O'Fallon, MO was unwelcome they
would move and at least no longer disrespect the memory of Megan or
their deed.
Ron Meier, the girl's father,
has been quoted saying "I just wish they would go away, move." This
family has pressed criminal charges against the Meier's and the mother
who created the fake account has openly stated that she doesn't think
she had a hand in Megan's suicide. Obviously whatever remorse or shame
they feel is minimal so maybe something outside needs to be done. I
think I'm going to contribute the old-fashioned way, and write a letter.
If
you live in the area, please don't stop by. If you know the daughter of
these parents, this was not her idea. Lori Drew is responsible alone
and her family should not have to suffer more shame for her actions
(since apparently she feels none) but they should have respect enough
to no longer live down the street of the family torn apart by Lori's
actions. We wonder sometimes why other countries see us as selfish and
lazy; this woman tries to remain blameless. Maybe I'm old fashioned but
I think theres more than just your own conscious to think about, theres
your honor, and even your soul.

| The Rocket Summer's new cd is awesome (but of course not as good as Hello, Good Friend)
I just made a grilled chz sangwich
This weekend Ill be in OkC and it will be amazing
already got the whole thing planned out
I cooked everything but the Turkey and stuffing on Thanksgiving. I must
say, my green bean casserole from scratch was a hit. It took me forever
to trim down the raw green beens and steaming the all the veggies I
threw in there took a bit, but in the end everyone liked it so it cant
be too bad. And as always, my mashed potatoes kicked your instant mashed ass~
Why is it that every single guy in the world thinks you like to just wait around for him?
or the good ones just don't fit right (too young, too nice, too optimistic)
My little brother just left to go back to the Academy. What a bittersweet visit (arent they all?)
I'm excited to be working again. It means independence and giving better Xmas gifts
Bee Movie was clever but you have to be a Seinfeld fan to appreciate it
American Gangster was good but man, the 70s sucked
If you don't like the band My American Heart your ears are broken. I mostly listen to hardcore music, but everything they have to marvelous
Yesterday I must've been on 'cool new people' on myspace or something cuz I denied like 3 pages of adds every hour or so and got alot of messages from random ppl. I never read them, just noticed I didn't know them and deleted the message (mostly 25-35yr olds, icky)
The reason I never post on here is because I never know what to say. And we all know its better to say something than ramble on about useless nothings - like this
Did I ever even know you? Was it just a dream turn nightmare? The last year, never happened, and I'm 20 years old forever. BTW: the poem, not about you

| On those nights when you sleep warm in your bed,
Dreaming away sweet candies and kisses,
As kiddies often do;
I live and walk the void.
I'm alone on the cold dead boulevard,
Where every night is the eve of shallow,
I feel no fear or pain;
Sorrow is my savior.
And pacing the avenues of despair,
Epitome of shadow is my soul,
I scream in the silence;
But every word benign.
Only the vacant of reality,
This forced patience is my purgatory,
The placebo of love;
My nostalgia for life.
Will I ever wake from neutrality,
I fear indifference overcomes me,
My precipice of pride;
This rift is my new home.
Renew my soul from its desolation,
Absolve this affliction kept in my core,
Shake me from hollow irons;
Give me regard again.
Please pardon me from my bleak dormancy,
I am not destined to drift in demise,
Unbind my found respite;
Stop my stifled ruin.
Am I so callous in my youth so soon,
I heed to nothing but melancholy,
Disjoining sentiment;
My quarter-life crisis.
Another fallen useless endeavor.
written by Alina Leung using 10:6 stanzas
"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing,
doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before."
-- Edgar Allan Poe

| you presume youll never get out
hold your breath at just the though of entering
but in the end
its never as bad as your nightmares
and the light is brighter than your dreams
thank God I didnt hold my breath any longer
for the fear is never as great as the pain
and sometimes being alone is more complete than together
especially when not everybody was whole to begin with
1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4
