  <title>Bombs and symphonies.</title>
  <link>http://ritsu-ai.livejournal.com/2631.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;I&apos;m doing a project about the bombing of Hiroshima. It&apos;s stirring up a lot of mixed emotions, and a lot of anger I didn&apos;t really know I had.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The attack was so unnecessary. So many died...civilians. It was a terrible, vicious, savage cheap shot against Japan...I find it difficult to write an unbiased report on it when I see pictures of women with the texture of their clothes burned into their skin...and the ruins of a proud city,&amp;nbsp;having been&amp;nbsp;reduced to rubble and ashes by an incomprehensibly monstrous atrocity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cfo.doe.gov/me70/manhattan/hiroshima.htm&quot;&gt;http://www.cfo.doe.gov/me70/manhattan/hiroshima.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Colonel Paul Tibbets, the navy dog who dropped the tonne-heavy uranium bomb, died on the first of November this year. I hate that. I wanted to spit in that filthy American&apos;s face (keeping in mind I have nothing against Americans, I just think that their military endeavours are brutal and careless).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;....-Sigh- In other news...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This weekend was hectic...I don&apos;t ever want to black out again. Or see Michelle with a knife to her throat as I snap out of my twisted state to see a razor pressed so firmly into my wrist that it nearly cut from the pressure alone. Or get so angrily frustrated with Rensa that I snap inside and it causes a blackout...at least those things are solved now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dangerous things happen when I can&apos;t cope with my frustration, I guess....Michelle is right, I need help. I always thought I came out of my younger years pretty well, without much scarring or carried pain. But it has became unmistakably, painfully clear that I&apos;m carrying baggage from mother and Sakuya and that idiot Jeff, among things. To the point where I&apos;ve supressed myself into a completely different side of me that I don&apos;t ever want to let go. So from now on the chain around my neck has become symbolism for keeping my stability intact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And yet somehow, Michelle has quickly discovered ways to snap me out of it, so that I&apos;m less of a danger. Which I&apos;m grateful for...very grateful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rensa and I are working on better ways to communicate with each other so that we don&apos;t upset the other person. I guess we don&apos;t need counselling (which he wouldn&apos;t have gone too, Rensa, you goof, you can be so stubborn!). It&apos;s actually weird, when I erase my mind and focus on the task at hand I can be very helpful. I wish those moments weren&apos;t so few and far between. Maybe I could have gotten a passing mark in Civ.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh well, no regrets. The important thing is I&apos;m buckled down now.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m very thankful for Michelle and her ability to straighten me out and get me back on track. She manages to be assertive in a calm and collected way that is tuned to how I feel. She has yet to slander me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Valen, thank you for giving me hope even when I know you were feeling down. I appreciate you letting me know you&apos;re here for me. It&apos;s comforting to have your companionship...^__^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Syd, I don&apos;t think I have to say the words for you to know that I&apos;ve always liked having you around, and you always manage to drop what you&apos;re doing and talk to me when I need it at school. Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rensa, thanks for keeping an open mind even though I&apos;ve been listless and difficult to deal with over the past however long it&apos;s been since I got something stuck up my butt attitude wise.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess I&apos;m just a big emo kid after all. X_X;;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...Damnit. X____X;;;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m going to rip out Mina&apos;s throat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then Kizu&apos;s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;....That someone like her could spill such inherently venomous content is beyond my comprehension just now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And to someone I care about, even.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Weird that they always end up being being &quot;Soubi&quot;. Even Michelle plays a Soubi and it&apos;s always people like that, that I end up really getting vicious in standing up for.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jii-san has been caught after choking me roughly. I&apos;m hoping this time he is punished severely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Phew, not much longer until lunch, I&apos;m starving. The one living with me now has been good to me; getting me up for school in the morning and making me real breakfasts...last night I had a nice homecooked meal for the first time in years, and Michelle knows I basically revelled in the moment, even though my stomach and esophagus are too unsettled to handle much food after the bleach incident. Which, might I add, was almost as foolish as that thing you did, Kizu. I&apos;m ashamed I even attempted what I did, and I&apos;m paying for it with a sever burning sensation, lack of tastebuds and nauseated stomach.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In any case, I have to get my stuff ready to leave now, I&apos;ll probably post during my spare as I have to wait for Kami after school to go to his house and have a....important TALK with Mina. Valen, if you and Michelle aren&apos;t there I fear I might...&quot;blackout&quot;. I&apos;m counting on you two to hold me back from ripping her to shreds. Hopefully it works.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If not, well....nice knowing her, to a point.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ja~&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today I saw him, and we fought. Today words were exchanged that I never want to hear again. I tried to fight to protect you because I don&apos;t believe him, I don&apos;t believe the silver words winding from his snakey tongue about love, or regret, or sadness......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But he hit me, he hit me hard in the cheek, and as he recoiled I saw something inside of him I haven&apos;t seen in a long time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tears. I haven&apos;t seen him cry in over a year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did something change? Does he feel again?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is he......is he in there somewhere? The person I once knew?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kizu...what&apos;s happened to you?...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What made you the way you were when you said such awful things about us all?...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Did you really mean it when you said you pushed us away to protect us?........&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;......What am I to believe, Brother, when so much has happened....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.......I won&apos;t hand Valen back over to you.....I need to know, I need to know that you&apos;re being honest.......even then......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...........-Put his head in his hands-&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <description>&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;There was an accident outside, I&apos;m ok now but I need to go home early. Which probably means I&apos;m going to fail law, but...it&apos;s only a half-course, so I can make it up in summer school or credit recovery courses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wont have any access to a computer or anything tonight, I&apos;m packing because my flight is tomorrow; Thursday afternoon your time, early morning/late night Friday for me. It&apos;s a thirteen hour flight, and I don&apos;t really like flying much because when it ascends and descends my ears pop and sometimes I get queasy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to go now, I&apos;m in a lot of pain. Please take care, Soubi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Larx, I&apos;m not mad at all. You get worried sometimes; it makes me smile. But honestly, the way I&apos;m quiet is just me being me. Really, don&apos;t worry about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wish me luck, I&apos;m hoping my face isn&apos;t bruised.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://pics.livejournal.com/ritsu_ai/pic/00002srf/&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;240&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;174&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://pics.livejournal.com/ritsu_ai/pic/00002srf/s320x240&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Today is a day I will not falter. I will do what I must to move closer to being the person I want to be and moving farther away from becoming the person I despise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will abandon the parts of me that are not beneficial.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will embrace the things in my life that I want around me always.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suki dayo.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <description>&amp;nbsp;On this day my heart is heavy and full of guilt. I don&apos;t know what to make of everything that has happened except to say that no one is to blame but myself. I have done all but torn off my fragile butterfly&apos;s wings,&amp;nbsp; left&amp;nbsp; to writhe in agony, alone on the barren, lifeless ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How long can I hold a mask to my face and go through these empty days with nothing but a short series of phone calls from a sinful voice to keep me afloat on this river of black ink? It doesn&apos;t matter if my head stays above the water, it doesn&apos;t matter if I drown. I have already been stained.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I will let go and let the current take me. Maybe&amp;nbsp;I will shut down and become cold and mechanical like the rest of the swine around me.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because I am the dirtiest, filthiest creature of all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would never ask you to forgive me. That would be arrogant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To ask you to stay around is even more self-absorbed a request.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...But I don&apos;t think I want to try swimming to the shore unless I see you standing there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to fix you, but I&apos;m torn inside. I&apos;ll keep destroying everything around me until I&apos;m fixed, and I can&apos;t fix myself any more. I can&apos;t do it alone any more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just want to die...</description>
