A Great Day Leading to a Big Mess

Yesterday 1/22/2011 I had to go to Long Island for a Swim Invitational. I spent the whole day there. It was a lot of fun, more fun then I expected. We came in 19th place out of like 75. So we did pretty good. On our way there though since it was so early in the morning we all ended up sleeping a few hours on the bus. I sat next to my friend John and he ended up asleep on my shoulder. After he said don't fall asleep on me, crazy right? I wake up to the voice of one of my teammates say "Who has the cream cheese for my bagel" I guess they were passing bagels around. We get to Long Island and since I am team manager I didn't have to change into my jammers I just went to the little section our team had. I sat next to my teammate Miguel, bay, and another John. When the swimming events began and our team was up I had to go with the other managers and time for our team. To see who would make sectionals. A lot of my teammates had already made sectionals so nobody new made it but they had a lot of personal best. Which means they've beaten there own time. From the diving section out of 73 divers one of our divers made 10th place. The other three divers were a little later then 10th place. So when the Swim Invitational ended we all went to the bus and we had to sit next to John again. We decided that we wanted to watch a movie so everybody on the bus decided to watch Toy Story 3. That movie always makes me cry because I really am a big fan of Toy Story. Woody is my favorite. The whole ride home me and John talked, laughed, we even play fight. Which I never do. We stopped for some food I bought some Sbarros. When we get back to our town one of my friends give me a ride home. I get home and everything is okay. I go charge my phone because it was dead. And then I head to my room. I watch TV for a little bit. I then tell my mom that when she is done with the TV downstairs to call me because I need to watch stuff that I have recorded. When I get out of taking a shower I see she is upstairs in her room but that my little brother is downstairs and that is when the night went downhill. My brother asked me question that I have answered like 40 other times. So that got me mad, him and I start to argue. I end up calling him stupid. He then proceeds to throw the remote control at me. And that's when I start to yell really loud. My older brother comes down trying to mediate but then he begins to attack. He says I shouldn't call my little brother stupid. I then said "you do that all the time, you call him worse things" so him and I start to argue. Then my mother comes downstairs and starts to yell at me. Saying that I always get mad at everything. That nobody can talk to me. And she starts to rampage about how every time I come from one of my swim meets that I'm mad. She likes to blame my anger on other things. Instead of thinking that she is tripping right now. And what gets me even more mad. Its not the whole argument its that after they all try to act like the perfect family and leave me out. Which is totally fake because we never spend more then an hour together without arguing. I go to my room avoid everything. I fall asleep and this morning I am rudely awaken to my older brother playing rock music. Which he did on purpose because he doesn't ever listen to rock music. I tell him to turn it off. And he just blows me off and leaves it on. So I tell everyone by screaming that everything I do is going to be extra loud today. And I've maintained that for now. This day has start off wrong and I just don't want to avoid them.

Who side are you guys on? Mine or my family?

SEVENTEEN magazine worthy?

This photo has got a lot of praise on my facebook. My friends have told me how much they like, and even love the pic. They have told me how cute I look etc. But the real reason I took this picture wasn't to have people on facebook praise it. But I was hoping that people at SEVENTEEN magazine would praise it. I took this black and white photo along with five other ones and sent them away to SEVENTEEN magazine with a letter explaining what they were for, and all my information. Awaiting for a response from one of the biggest magazines in the United States I decided to post these pictures on facebook. I feel like I got more out of them on facebook then at SEVENTEEN because I never heard from them. I waited weeks for a response from them but never got it. I was very bummed because appearing in SEVENTEEN magazine has been a dream of mine ever since i wanted to enter the fashion industry. Not knowing if the editor-in-chief from SEVENTEEN magazine received my pictures and letter, I still await a response from them and I still believe that my photos are SEVENTEEN magazine worthy. =]

My Blog

Hi I'm Kenneth I'm 17 years old, I'm from Puerto Rico but I reside in New York. So my Blog title is Ken's Double Life. It's a weird rather random Blog but i gave it that name because i live a double life. See in my home I can't be my honest and my true self. I have to compromise who I am so I wouldn't be miss understood by my family. I am a very nice person, yea I have a bitchy side but it doesn't come out often. I'm usually just funny, loud, outgoing, and just awesome. Now I may sound conceded because I called myself awesome, but it's true a lot of people say so. But at home I'm quiet, reserved, serious. I really don't leave my room much only to eat or use the bathroom to wash my teeth, shower, use the bathroom. I spend my time at home watching television or watching movies. Nothing else. When I go out with my friends I can return to being the really cool and outgoing person that I am. I am going to be updated my blog weekly or as long as my internet stays on. I will be posting what happen at school and at home during that week. And maybe you guys can notice the difference of how I act in occasions.
