:Give Thy Thoughts No tongue

My mother, Mr. O’Connell, Mr. Lilly, Kipp, And Tiffany!!!

           Okay this will be a very long post and I will have to do it in the course of a few days. I really do not feel like starting with my mother do to the fact it will take too long. SOO I shall start with MR O!!!!!!Connell!!!!!!!

          Mr. O’Connell Is my favorite teacher ever….period. Well… maybe Mr. Lilly and Mr. O’Connell are tied but anyways, he is incredibly smart. He stands up everyday and lectures most of the time with nothing of him. He knows his stuff and knows how to teach it. He is always making me laugh. ALWAYS. His jokes are corny but funny. I have never NOT laughed or smirked or snickered in his class. He cares about people and he is someone I can talk to. Not very many teachers will listen like that. Yeah he can be slightly disorganized but ALL the good teachers are. It’s the boring ones who have everything planned out and are always passing papers out on time. I like to hear his stories and his random tangents he always goes on and how he gets mad at the people for distracting him. It’s pretty awesome. He has this happy-go-lucky feel to him and although I know alot of people dislike him I have always been his biggest fan. I always defend him. lawl. Well I suppose I shall move on to Mr. Lilly.

          Mr. Lilly was my eighth grade English teacher and homeroom advisor. He probably one of the greatest people I have ever met or will meet. He always had this way about him where I could be totally bored and tired and upset  but at the end of his class I was cheery and excited about the rest of the day. He would always start off the class with one of his life stories which always had me listening intensely to hear over the quiet rude whispers of the “slackers” behind me. Everything he said always sounded so profound and it was always something that I have thought but could never put it into words but he always put them in words for me. Normally it was always about life, emotions, and kindness, well mankind basically, and I always agreed. His personality is quite amazing. LQTM (Laughing quietly to myself) I don’t know how to say all this without making me sound creepy and sound like I “like” my eighth grade teacher but I swear like if I could take his personality and put it into someone my age they would be my soul  mate. Or Mr. O’Connell’s. Because guys my age are all really stupid and really ignorant which is redundant I suppose. Whatever happened to empathy and compassion for people and life. All guys are interested now is stereotypical nonsense things. Well I suppose this is all for the Mr. Lilly section but I should add that he really altered my perception of life and mankind and also helped me get through my parents divorce because he knows how to listen and knows the right things to say… OKAY moving on..

          Kipp. He is my mother’s boyfriend but that title is constantly changing. Kipp also has a really amazing outlook on life but alot of time our personalities clashed because he is so much like me. Two years ago I could not call him the same person he is today because he has gone through a very big change. His life was hard just like mine because he got a divorce from his wife but she cheated on him… Don’t worry it wasn’t his decision. So anyways the whole divorce and Kipp moving in thing really changed my perception of religion, marriage, and priorities in life. All changed for the good I think but I’m sure you would disagree with me. Kipp is the type of person who can just walk into a room and in five minutes everyone will like him or hate him. Mostly like him. He not shy AT ALL which I love about him because neither am I. I wrote an English paper on him so I really am not in the mood to go much further.

          Next is Tiffany. She has been my best-friend since third grade. I have told her EVERYTHING and she has done the same. We grew apart in the winter but now we are back to being old “Kendall and Tiffany.” We used to be inseparable and I suppose we still are just not as much. I don’t know what all I can say because there’s too much and too little. I might add more about her later but I’m WAY too tired. 

         My mother… I can’t even begin to start with her. She is my biggest fan and everything in my life. My dad is never around and practically nonexsistant in my teenage life and my mother got me through it. I can’t even wrap around how I feel about her and what she has gone through. Well I should get going but for closures….

          These people all mean a good deal to me and have all had an affect on my life and all have made me who I am today. *Cliche I know! BUT TRUE!!!*
