There’s a new boy at my school. His name is Cole. He transferred just over a month ago, I believe it’s been. The second he walked in, I looked at him and started crushing on him. He was just so cute. But I figured it’d go nowhere, because he was probably straight. Then my friend Maddie started getting to know him… She ran up and practically tackled me one afternoon, and all she said was “He’s gay.” She went on to explain he had come out to her during one of their classes. She had early on figured out my crush on him. She promised to introduce us. Basically, the introduction was extremely awkward. He came up, said hi, and left. But that night, he messaged me on Facebook. We proceeded to talk for almost two hours. I told him I’d sit with him on the bus. So I did. And we talked about everything. Then he asked about band. So I took him with me, to the band room. And we continued to talk, and still are, about a lot of stuff. And at some point, I confessed my crush on him. And to my surprise, he confessed to having one back. And that he thinks I’m cute. I couldn’t be happier. <3

I was reading the Gay People page on Facebook. I find it kinda sad that people will comment on the things trying to hook up. There were very few per the serious responses, but I find it pretty sad that there are people out there that are so interested in sex, but nothing emotional. I really don’t want to imagine living a life like that. One partner after another… its just so impermanent. So scary. I can’t see being with someone in such a way with no love and no commitment.
I feel sorry for them and happy for them. I wish that they would be in a loving relationship, but also I see that they won’t be hurt by love…
meh… sorry for my ramblings :P
- Brother's Dad: You're going to turn him into a fucking faggot.
- Mom: So? I'm always gonna love him no matter what. He's my son.
I had a daydream about him in class today. I was drawing hearts around his name or our initials. I wrote his name on my hand. :3
I had this daydream he was sitting down somewhere I don’t know. I came from behind and kinda draped my arms around his neck. I kissed his cheek and he did this cute giggly thing that he does. I smiled and I felt it across my face. I knew exactly how I looked. I was glad no one in class noticed.

Makes me love him even more. Like his attitude really plays well into the kinda movie this is. :3
A recent controversy over at gaylovegalore has caused me to write this post.
I was getting beef about there not being enough black couples being portrayed on my Tumblr. This bugged me for a few reasons:
- I personally don’t really care about the people in the pictures, but rather how they’re interacting with each other, their chemistry and such.
- There is actually a lot of diversity in my posts. I was just looking through my archive and there are tons of non-white/interracial couples on there.
- Some of them had this notion that because of what people in the past did to minorities, they deserve special treatment because of it. I’ve said this before oppression does not make you special.
- I realized people don’t actually want diversity, they just want their ‘race’ portrayed more dominantly.
This lead me to further thinking on a wider set of issues I believe in the idea that if you want to change the world, you have to start with yourself.
How can you expect people to stop seeing the world based on skin color, if you yourself are still looking at things based on the ratio of white to colored people? How can you expect the world to see you as equal if you, yourself, see yourself as a gay person rather than an individual who is gay?
I guess what I’m trying to say is stop viewing the world, the way you don’t want others to see it and see it as you want others to see it.
However, if you see actual, legitimate discrimination, call it out. Stand up and speak up. But don’t cry racism/homophobia just because you feel like you’re not being treated special.
We’re looking for equal treatment not special treatment.
