"The fish that slept"- By Bruce legacion

Such a magestic thing
damned to a hell to live in,
it is my fault you are no longer living
I am helpless, so rest now with the others of your kin.

You survived for years
even when the others slept
I held you so dear
in my heart you are always kept.

I watched you for days
yet you seemed as if the same
thinking you would live forever
a fool I was, I realize that today,
for my new prison is shame
none shall replace you, none, not ever.

Goodbye my friend
we had a good run
sorry this is the end
it was such fun...

but I was a fool to think it was forever
when in reality, it is now never.

"The fish that slept"-By Bruce Legacion

In the ally he stands

As he stands in the ally...the dark cold ally. He is judged because of the holes in his 501 blue denim jeans....he is tall but slouches to hide the pain caused by the large gnash on his chest. They laugh and call him names because of his topless blue vans. He is just a man who is dirty, shaveless,and misunderstood. He is lonely because everyone he loves has died. As he stands in the ally... the dark cold ally he is misunderstood.

Poem

I see the light at
Thee end of the tunnel
I smell the end
Of my long hard journey

I hear the trumpets
Congratulating me
I feel accomplished
I can finally say I made it

I taste my victory
On my tongue
I think that without
You... I never would have made it

"Satisfied" by David M.

Satisfied
glance, stare, drool
stare, drool, pick up napkin
drool, pick up napkin, wipe mouth
pick up napkin, wipe mouth, pick up fork
wipe mouth, pick up fork, stab enchilada
pick up fork, stab enchilada, place in mouth
stab enchilada, place in mouth, chew
place in mouth, chew, swallow
chew, swallow, satisfied.

By Far the Best Clothing Store I have Entered.

Located in the bottom floor of the Montclair Plaza, the commonly known Vans store sits in glory. Not only is it an awesome store but the quality of the things being sold is overwhelming. Originally known for it's shoes, Vans has been selling clothing apparel for about 70 years. The service in the shops are outstanding due to the helpful workers. But particularly the one in Montclair is my favorite because not only does the staff care about their customers but they actually tell you about the deals that only go on in that shop only. You might go to a different Vans store where all the people that work there only care about you walking out with an empty wallet. They still care for the customers but not as much as the people in the Montclair mall. I saw this Vans hat that I was interested in buying my dead said to wait another day to get it. Being the awesome people they are they got my dad to get me my hat because they saw me a bit upset! Not only that but they offered my sister a deal for 6 pairs of socks for half the original price!

About 3 months ago I saw these shoes (Vans) that caught my eye, but the price was a bit too high. We went shopping a couple days later and I mentioned the price to the people in the store. They basically took about 5 dollars off the original price and added in free shipping! The shoes are outstanding and last a pretty long time. They come in different shapes and patterns which I think is really cool. Being a skate brand, Vans sells from shoes to skateboards to hats and glasses. Anything you can wear, other than underwear, is sold in that store! I recommend it 100%. And I give it a 10 out of 10.

Roscoes Chicken And Waffles

Well where do I begin? This Resturant has THE BEST Chicken and Waffles ever.

Their waffles... OH LORDY! Perfection. They are a perfect combination of sweetness, fluffiness, and cinnamon. They are never burnt. They are amazing what can I say. It is a must try.

Their chicken is perfectly fried. It might be better than home made. It's very hard to compare something to homemade but this chicken, and these waffles SURPASS homemade. All this amazing goodness of food has to be taken in slowly and must be enjoyed with every bite. Chewed just till you have tasted every bite of sweetness.

There are 6 Roscoe's Chicken And Waffles. I have only been to the one in Pasadena. The service is great! The waitress' and waiters always have a great personalities that makes you feel at home. The actual restaurant could use a remodeling. But Almost everything else is amazing.

Another downside about this wonderful restaurant is the wait. The longest I have had to wait is 2 hours. That is a bit absurd. They should really find a way to make the wait shorter. Maybe get a bigger location or do something that wouldn't make the wait so long

But over all the restaurant is amazing. Food... great! Service...great! I would recommend the restaurant to anyone and everyone that enjoys great food and friendly service!

Goals for the year!

My goals are like any normal goal, to do better in school, or to get more athletic.

My first goal, and my biggest one, is to get into the habit of doing my work as soon as I get home, or as soon as I have time to work. Im a bit of a procastinater, and my grades are suffering because of it. I have a few A's and B's but the first thing you'll see is the giant D in the SMACK in the middle of the screen. And because of that little letter, I'm not allowed to go out, play video games, or do ANYTHING fun... So because of this, I Bruce Legacion, hereby, promise to stop PROCASTINATING.

My second goal, is to smoke anyone in my neighborhood, I used to have a problem with my heels because I had bad shoes, the shoes were too thin and I ran too much, and my heels got chipped bones. But I went to the foot doctor and he hooked me up with some inserts, 150 bucks a pop. But they were worth it because now I feel like I can run for days. So since my heels are nice and healthy, I want to be the fastest kid in town xD.

My third goal, is to Learn how to play the guitar, I have this sick blue acoustic guitar sitting in my closet just collecting dust, and I've always wanted to learn how to play it. but i had never been motivated, or smart/enthusiastic enough to learn, every friday im going to have afriend I know whos really good with guitars to give me free lessons on playing.

I didnt really list many steps on how I'm going to reach my goal, but I'm sure I'll manage and wing it the whole way. But for sure I will reach these goals.
