About Me

My photo
I'm Devin. I love photography. I'm very opinionated and speak my mind. I personally think my friends can describe me more than I can describe myself. So, I guess I'll leave it up to them. Haha

MLIA

Thank you MLIA for giving me something to do on Yearbook work day.

(Hahahaha! This reminds me of something my dad and I would do!)
"Today, I went grocery shopping with my dad. We realized we forgot to get something in an aisle we had just passed. We pretended to rewind ourselves and made sound effects. People clapped. MLIA"

"Today, I was at a haunted house with my family. Whenever someone would jump out and scream, my mom would scream back. I asked her why she did this. She said "You know how it works. They scream, I scream..." and then a man in a mask jumped out and said "We all scream for ice cream!"MLIA."

"Today I was playing the Sims 2 and I wanted to get a better look at one of my Sims. So I zoomed in and leaned closer to my computer. At that exact moment, his head turned and looked directly at the screen. I screamed. MLIA."

"Today, I was walking to a restaurant with my friends, when about 10 guys dressed up as Tetris pieces ran across the street and stopped by the side of the road. They started stacking on top of each other, then as one more piece ran towards them they all started screaming and ran away. I love college. MLIA"

"Today I was watching Blues Clues with my two-year-old sister. She lost interest and left the room. My mom came in to see what I was doing and I told her that Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper were having another baby. She responded with, "No way!" She then sat down and watched with me. My sister was no where to be found. MLIA"

"Today, in my AP English Lit class we were going around the room talking about what is our greatest fear. It was sunny day and it went to this popular jock guy said "I fear the apocolypse." RIGHT when he finished the power went out and he screamed the most high pitched girl scream anyone in the class ever heard. Best timing ever? I do believe so. MLIA"

"Today, I walked into my lounge room and found my dog slowly walking towards what I thought was an open glass door and then backing away. He continued this for about a mintue, until finally he just ran off. I laughed at how dumb he was for thinking the door was closed. I then walked into the closed glass door. MLIA"

"Today at work, I was with a colleague watching the security camera when a enormous spider crawled across the screen. Convinced it was crawling across the TV screen and not the camera, my partner let out a high pitch scream and ran from the room. We're security guards. MLIA."

"The other day I was walking home from campus when I saw two jack-o-lanterns in a building window with scared and worried expressions carved into them, tilted so they were looking up. When I followed their gaze I saw a pumpkin on the edge of the neighboring roof about to "jump". Best jack-o-lantern ever. MLIA"

"Today, my Spanish teacher was taking roll. To be funny he put "mister" or "master" in front of our names. This pattern stopped when he accidentally called guy with the last name of Bates "Master Bates." I love Spanish class. MLIA"

"Today, my mom got an email from my aunt that said after she took my little cousin to see Where the Wild Things Are my cousin turned to her and said very seriously, "Mommy, I want to be a horny beast for halloween." My brother didnt know why we were laughing so hard. MLIA"

"Today, I was helping out with the Fire Prevention talks at a Elementary schools. The Fireman in the class teaching the kids about Stop, Drop and Roll asked the kids what they should do if their clothes catch fire. A little boy threw his hand up and the Fireman called on him. The boy then very solemnly said, "Don't put them on." The fireman could only laugh and heartily agree. MLIA"

"Today, while shopping with my mom and little sister, my sister randomly asked, "do they use cough syrup to make crystal meth." To which my mother answered, "if I knew how to make crystal meth don't you think we'd live in a better house?" I laughed so hard I cried. MLIA"

"Today, in my 10th grade history class, a girl and guy were arguing about whether or not you could wax your eyebrows with duct tape. He was adamant that it couldn't be done, so he let her try it on him. His right eyebrow is now half gone. The best part? My teacher supplied the duct tape. MLIA"

"Today, as I was driving home I noticed a street called Drury Lane. I plan on going back tomorrow and finding the muffin man. MLIA"

"Today, my mother was on her iGoogle thing, and she got a virtual pet hamster. I walk out and see her sitting in front of the computer with a horrified look on her face. She looks at me and yells "HE'S IN A COMA!" The computer was frozen. MLIA."

"Today, in one of my classes, we talked about the first swear word we learned. A quiet kid suddenly said in hushed tones, 'Voldemort'. I love high school. MLIA"

"Today, my dad tried to get my little brother to stop sucking his thumb so he told my brother that, if he continued, his stomach would grow large and eventually pop. Sure enough today in church we sat next to a 6 month pregnant woman. After church my brother walked up to her with a serious expression and exclaimed, " I know what you've been doing!" The look on her face was priceless.MLIA"

No Title.

Have you ever been walking in the hall at school when suddenly, you see someone you had a class with the year before or a couple years before? When you smile at them, they kind of look at you weird then give you that half-smile? Yeah, that happened to me today. I always feel like I'm the only one that happens to ha ha.

Well, I'm sitting in yearbook, pretty bored. Just finished editing my contest photos. I don't really think they are that great, at all. They are from last year! I haven't taken any extremely great ones so far, sad really. :(

Oh! Whenever you can, visit www.peopleofwalmart.com

It is so hilarious!

I'm Gonna Break Your Little Heart In Two

I try to ignore you, yet somehow, you always get under my skin. I see you every day because I have to, not because I want to. I see you every morning and you ended up in one of my classes. You decided to sit right across from me. Thanks a lot.


I find it funny, really. How you can go from hating my guts one minute, to acting like you're my best friend the next. You're only bitter because I decided not to take you back. Can you honestly blame me? You had your chance. I told you it was your last chance, you didn't take me seriously.

Right now, I can't stand you. You always, always, have to be right and have the last say in everything. Literally, everything.

You're a liar, jerk, and a bi-polar moron.

You complain about how much your summer sucked. How you were miserable the entire summer. Guess what, I had a blast. Sure, it was a bit rocky, but that was honestly, only because of the crap you pulled. Though, I had friends to make sure that I got through it.

So take your complaining, whining, and smart comments elsewhere. I don't want to hear it.

Put Up Or Shut Up

I am so flippen psyched for Warped Tour! I don't think you even understand. Some of the best bands are going to be there and I can't wait to see them live! From moshing to freaking A Day To Remember to dancing to Breathe Carolina, you can't ask for more.

Except for one thing. As teeny bopperish as this sounds, I really wish All Time Low was playing on our day. I was listening to these guys before they got really big, and before Dear Maria, Count Me In became a big hit. Sure, I don't really talk about them much, but that's only because I was really annoyed whenever I did. Whenever I would say something about them, some girl would spaz out and be like,
"Oh my God! They are so hot! I just love their music!"

I'd ask them, "Really? What songs have you heard by them?"

"Dear Maria, Count Me In of course! It's their best song!"

"Have you not heard any of their other songs? Like Lullabies or Running From Lions?"

"Uh, no. Those songs aren't on MTV."

I would just roll my eyes and walk away. No one else really cared to look up any other songs by them. Only because their "biggest" hit was on MTV. It's the same thing with The Maine. It honestly annoys me. People only listen to their stuff because they are on MTV and want to be cool. Some people only care that the band members are hot.

Seriously people, just enjoy the music. It doesn't matter if the band members are hot or gross. I will admit to looking up pics of the band when I hear about them, but I don't care what they look like. All Time Low has some of the best lyrics I have ever heard, and I highly respect them because of that.

Usually, they aren't my cup of tea when it comes to music, but when my friend showed them to me, I instantly fell in love with them. I am honestly proud of them for working so hard and becoming such a well known band. I just hate how people only look up one song, then claim to love the band. Sorry for the rant, just one of my biggest pet peeves :).

Mr. Highway's Been Thinking About the End...

Junior year. The year of heartache, frustration, happiness, and stress. It's finally coming to a close. In so many ways, I hated this year. I hated it with everything in me, but yet, I wouldn't take any of it back. As much as I hated this year, This year has helped me a lot. It made me realize what kind of person I am and who I really can depend on. That, I don't need some boy to make me happy. That you can't waste your days moping around because he broke up with you. Get over it. You can do better anyways. That my friends are there with me, through thick and thin. Thank you all so much. I love ya'll.

It's weird, really. On saturday, I will be seeing two of my best friends graduate. They have been with me through all of high school, but they won't be there for my senior year. It's hard, but you have to let go eventually, right?
Though, after a short 2-3 month period, I will be a senior. Soon enough, I will be walking across that stage, graduating from high school and moving on to college. My mom told me that she has cried almost everyday for the past week because I am "just growing up so fast".

As you grow older, never forget the times when you played hop-scotch in 3rd grade at recess. Or the times you jumped off the swings in 6th grade because you thought that the farther you jumped, the cooler you were.

Never forget your first crush or first kiss (even if your first kiss was terrible). Don't forget who all your friends were in high school, or who you dated. Where your first job was. Never forget the day you graduated and made something of yourself all through college.

Everything we do, defines who we are as a person.

Enjoy life and remember the greatest moments.

Missing Out.


After watching Bride Wars, I realized something. When I was younger, I had never planned my wedding. Honestly. It almost makes me feel as though I had missed out. Sure, not every little girl dreamed of her wedding, but most did.

My AP English teacher just got engaged last semester and today we finally saw her bridal pictures. They were so beautiful! I can't wait until my wedding. Ha ha. It seems like so much stress, but in the end, it's all worth it. You are now "officially" his and he is yours. Just so romantic!

It's just something fun to think about. I was looking at wedding dresses with my friend last weekend and now I just can't stop. So many options and beautiful ones. I can't wait until the day I get to finally pick one out and be able to make my fiance just about wet his pants when he sees me walking down the isle. Ha ha. I'm terrible, I know.
