    <content type="html">To try to update this whole summer would be unreal, it's been six months since brandon and i broke up, and I reailzed today that I'm still not over him.  I feel so lame, his gotton over me (very quickly i might add) but I'm still so heart broken.  More then likely I'll end up with the next guy who asks me out and even though he doesn't make me happy I'll be with him cause I'm so lonely.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been thinking about throwing in the towel on acting, lately i've been thinking that God is trying to tell me to knock it off....go do someting else with your life, you suck Ms. Brown, but cause I love acting and singing I can't see the truth....I'm really depressed...I wished I wasn't.

I was horriable to Brandon and I don't blame him for breaking up with me...he should be with someone...less jealous, skinny, beautiful, and someone, he can "grow up with", like Noel...noel.  I don't hate anybody...really I don't I just, I'm just misunderstood...but that doesn't mean anything now...I'm so sorry Brandon, if you read this I'm soo soo sorry, and I hope you find what you want, whatever you couldn't find in me....I'm sorry , I'm sorry everybody, about everything.....I love all of you that have come into my life, cause you all have showed me something new about myself...don't forget that..everyone be happy...always be happy, sometimes that's all you got to hang on to is that happiness or the hope for it....forgive me everyone....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Dameca Angalina Nichole Sicilia Brown&lt;br /&gt;July 17, 1985&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I never did learn how to put up an icon...LoL....</content>

    <content type="html">I miss hanging out with my friends but none of them ever ask me to hang out, that's my fault I guess.  Anyway that's not important  the party is Sunday and deep down inside I don't think it's going to turn out.  People have lives...they don't have time for a dumb party...I can't do anything right.  :*: sigh:*:  I'm still looking for a job...it's really depressing.  I've got the blues!!!  Brandon is going out of town the day after my birthday...you know the day we planned on spending together!! I think that's why I am really depressed.  I really am a normally happy person...I mean I'm no Richard Simmons but I'm still happy.  I'm trying not to let little things let me down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A friend of mine is getting married and they want me to sing.  I hate weddings...it's only cause I can't have one.  What's the point of have a soulmate if you can't marry them?  I love Brandon and everyone and there bother knows that..if they don't they are a fool.  I will be 18 soon and I'm ready to go on to that next stage in life....whatever that might be.  Brandon asked me to marry him in Decmeber...his mom didn't find out till March.  Brandon and I started sleeping together in Novermber...no one knew that.  I'm not he has to shout out our buisness to the world but it would be nice if he didn't act like I was some dark secert he had to keep.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sleeping walking again...and it's getting bad. I have to put chairs by my door to keep me in my room.  The other I walked out into the middle of the street...it was the hand of God that my dad was the car that came upon me.  My parnets want me to "see someone" about this...they think I'm crazy.  My dad said..."first her eating, then the cuting....now she's fucked up her sleeping...that child can't do anything right.  Why can't she be more like Nicee?  That girl is so needy...I mean she can't even date someone her own age.  Something tells me this Brandon guy is going to come to his senses and dump Meca and then we're going to be stuck with her!"  Of course he thought I was still out running but I heard...I heard it all.</content>

He and I wanted to spend it alone very romantic...breakfast in bed...then stay in bed "if you know what I mean"  :*:wink, wink, PG13:*:..just kidding.  But I wanted to just spend the day with him but I can't because of his mother.  I'm so sick of that women thinking I'm going to take her "little boy" to the ghetto, shot him up with some drugs and then pulled down his pants and rape him...and after that get him to join a gang!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love being with Brandon he makes me giggle like a girl!!  Teehehe!  But really when we're "together, together"  I feel like I have a place in this world..like I matter.  I don't have any family, personal, job, and relationship problems when we are together...and I love it.  I am shy.... I know it's hard to believe but I am...and I feel better when I am around him.  I feel pretty...dare I say sexy?  I don't know...I just don't want his mom...THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WESTSIDE... to keep us apart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hate being jobless, I hate being home...I have to find a job to get a car...to get more money, to get an apartment so I can get away from my parnets.  Everything I do is wrong, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!  It's like what do you want with me????  I don't drink, or do drugs...I've never stayed out like pass 10:30...no nevermind the  "senior party"  yeah there were teachers everywhere!!!  I feel trapped...I just feel like I'm not doing anything...anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I didn't eat again today...that's three days...ummmmm food.  I don't know...everytime I see food I feel guilt...like I've done something wrong.  I look at myself in the mirror and think it's a crime to be this overweight!  I'm afarid of eating cause  I might throw it up but if I don't eat I get hunger and want to stuff my face!!  I hate food so much now...I just hate it...why is cheesecake my kryptonite?  I mean for real...I saved my brother from a burning build...been in several fights and won..but I see a burger....I melt.  Oh well enough of me bitching and having a pitty party for one, I've got a party to plan for it!!!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm trying to be the happy Meca that everyone knows and loves...but it's getting hard everyday and I don't wanna bring down someone with me</content>

But I guess if I got into those kinda of things I wouldn't be me, would I.  Shel Silverstein is a great poet...to bad all he'll ever be know for will be "Where the side walk Ends".</content>

Brandon and I have grown so close to one an other.  I know a lot of people kind of pock fun at us because we were "sickly cute".  I will be the first to tell you that yeah we are too cute but now it's gone from cute to...I don't know.  We're in love and it's a good feeling. I really don't have any huge complaints about or relationship...maybe the age thing... but we're getting over that.  I also love my little sister so this is going to be great!!  Plesea the people I sent invites to respond ASAP!!!!  Well I GOTTA GO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS:  oh yeah did I mention was "laid off",  it sucked so bad..I worked at this day care and I was happy but one day this man (who I've never seen before)comes in to pick up his child  looks at me and then looks at my boss and tell her &lt;br /&gt;" I didn't know  a  N*@$R (I don't like even typing that word) was taking care of my child...I want her gone!!"&lt;br /&gt;He said that right in front of me...and the worse part he gives a lot of money to the daycare center..so it was me...or....him...so.....I was "let go".  That's ok, I tried to quit but like I said I was laid off...SO IF ANYONE KNOWS ANY JOBS OUT THERE..I'D GLADLY LIKE YOUR SUGGESTIONS.  I hate being black sometimes...well brown anyway, hahaha!</content>

    <content type="html">I talked to Richard today...he always puts me in such a good mood.  I love the way he makes me laugh...I can be "real"  with him.  I guess he brings out the black in me  which makes me happy sometimes.  I know this year we kinda didn't talk that much but we don't need to talk everday to be bestfriends...I think that's what makes our friendship so groovy.  I don't know where  I'd be without him.  To tell the truth I wouldn't have gotten back into drama if it wasn't for Richard.  And if I didn't get into drama, I never would of met Brandon or half of the great friends I have now!!  I wouldn't of join choir either...he really did help me make what I am today...that's why he's my bestfriend!!!</content>

His B-Day is the 9th...I don't know really what to do...we both agreed to get each other nothing for our birthdays, but he's turning 16!!!
