	&lt;p&gt;   She walked through the living room door and the curtains are open. 'Strange' she thinks because she lives on her own. The light flooded the room, hurting her fragile, hungover eyes. She chose to ignore it because she was too tired to worry. She walked through into the kitchen and put thne kettle on. Then she went to her bedroom, her bed was all made up. The sheets soft and smooth as if they'd just been recently ironed. 'Did I do that?' she thinks starting to panic now. The kettle boils. She power walks into the kitchen very worried now. The kettle was lying there on the floor. Boiling hot water spread out into a big puddle. 'I've go to get out!' she thinks. She runs through to the living room again and in the light flooded room stands the sillouhette of a man. 'Hi hunnie' He said.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;   That was what happened before she died. Experts say She broke her legs, her arms, one of her wrists and a couple of fingers. Her stomach was cut open and the floors painted with her blood(not litterally). Her ribs were all Yanked out and placed in a pile in the corner. The sun shimmered off those bones.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Thanks for reading, it wasnt as good as i wanted it to be, i just like the idea of the ribs in the corner &lt;img src="/img/smilies/graybigrazz.gif" alt=":P" class="middle" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

I'll start from the very first second of this year. The first second of January 2009. I made a resolution. No I didn't want to get fit, cut out smoking (mainly cuz I don't smoke lol) or solve world hunger (something daft like that). Nope, I wanted to write a book. I have done for a long time, but never had a good enough idea. So at the start of the new year, I resided to bed, content with life. I was still thinking about what to write my book on. Then, Something very strange happened! I don't know why it happened, was it fate? God? or a very lucky Coinsidense? I had a dream. An extreamly long, vivid dream. It was about zombies, but my dream played it out like a story. At first I didn't think much of it, I just thought it was a really cool, slightly scary dream. I told my dream to a couple of my friends, who said 'Wow thats scary, its just like a story' Then one of my friends said 'You should make it into a book' Thats when the penny dropped.&lt;br&gt;
I've started writing it now, bit by bit.&lt;br&gt;
With my school work its gonna be hard to get it done quickly.&lt;br&gt;
But at least I'm getting it done.&lt;br&gt;
I would love to tell you all the storyline, or send you all the first paragraph (to get you oppinion) or even just tell you the title.&lt;br&gt;
But i'm not sure if any one will steal my ideas :S&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;What do You think?&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Other things that happened in January:&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Got back with my girlfriend(she is the bestest &lt;img src="/img/smilies/graybigrazz.gif" alt=":P" class="middle" border="0"&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Started watching Naruto(its awsome)&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Made a band (Its called Killjoy (not my idea btw))&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;I'm sure there are others but I can't remember :S lol&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Talk to you all again soon!!!&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;its called 300 M.P.H. Torrential Outpour Blues by The White Stripes&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;It is from the third song from their 6th album 'Icky Thump'&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;I think the song is very soothing but energetic in places.&lt;br&gt;
No one seems to do good blues songs any more, another reason I like the white stripes &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

I can't sleep in my step-dad's house, it's too creepy! Mainly because someone died in the house, but anywho...&lt;br&gt;
No, I wasn't exited, I was just startled by the fridge wailing from downstairs. So I went downstairs with a pillow and my covers. Lied down on the sofa feeling uncomfortably comfy, cuz I had a pain in my neck but at least I had the TV to keep me company. Anyway, why should I be exited? I've had my presents...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;So, I got to sleep at about 4:30, and had to be woken up at 10:00. This was the first time I'd slept in at Christmas! I'm not trying to be a scrooge, but it doesn't feel like christmas.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;well, there is always next year &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="middle" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;*woosh*&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Ok we are now in flash back mode...&lt;br&gt;
Well, it was about half a year ago in the summer time and my dad had been working in London for a week or so. But I still go to his house and chill out there on my own. So I was really dehydrated and I thought 'I know, I'll have some milk' so I ran to the kitchen and poured some milk into a huge glass (bearing in mind I was REALLY thirsty). So, without thinking I downed about half of the the milk...&lt;br&gt;
It was a week out of date! &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif" alt="8|" class="middle" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;
I threw up, obviously, and I've been very cautious of milk ever since, always smelling the milk and checking the date on the carton.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;So getting to the point...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;I had some milk this morning, on its own. The first time in ages. It smelt ok and it was a brand new carton. So, I drank most of it but I felt horribly sick afterwards and had to drink something else to get rid of the taste. And I was trying to figure out why it tasted so horrible. And I remember about a story my step-mum told me. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;When she was younger she was baking and when she cracked open the egg, a half-formed chicken came out and now if she smells eggs or even the word 'egg' makes her feel physically sick!&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;So I was thinking maybe its a psycological thing, because I had a bad experiance my brain doesnt like milk?&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Any help or theories would be nice, I just don't know why I don't like milk, I used to love it!&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;And has anything like this happened to you?&lt;/p&gt;

You know the ones where they get a forty year old, overweight woman to tell their parents that their kids should 'shut the hell up!'. Well I was one of those kids. No, I didn't have Jo Frost telling me to sit on the naughty step because I was hitting my Mum. But I was a pretty naughty, noisy, slightly evil three year old boy...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;I used to get locked in my room for the usual, Kicking, screaming, abuse lol. That was just another day in the office for me, kind of wierd that there would be three year olds, but I think you get the metaphor. So, I would get locked in my bedroom and, from what I'm told, I'd go mental! I'd take all my bed covers off the bed, pull all my clothes out of my wardrobe and put them all in a pile in the middle of the floor. And I was only Three! &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;I feel so bad now, my parents didn't deserve that, especially because they were looking after my disabled brother. But at the age of four, I went to school. And that made me quiet!...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;But I'll tell you why In the next installment &lt;img src="/img/smilies/graybigrazz.gif" alt=":P" class="middle" border="0"&gt; Untill then... &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="middle" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;   I could say my life was hard, and that no one should go through the stuff I've been through. But I'm not, because I love my life! Everything I've gone through has made Me, Me! And I really feel sorry for those who have had a difficult life, and I pity those who have good lives and don't appreciate them. Half of the kids my age who say they're deppresed don't know the meaning of the word! Self-harming, suicide and 'Being Emo'(as some would call it) I don't understand it :S. I have a few friends who are self-harmers(:S) a few have difficult lives at home and at school. But the rest just don't understand life when it comes to relationships(I think thats a stupid reason personally), School work and even just general things at home and school. But I just don't understand how people can punish themselfs for something that isn't their fault! Anyway making it back to my original point, life is great, I wouldn't change it for the world...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;   Sorry about the extra long introduction, I had alot of feelings that needed expressing lol. Ok, so lets start from the beginning. I was born on the 9th of June 1993 in York hospital, which is in York(Duh!), North Yorkshire, England. I was the longest and heaviest baby on the ward, haw awsome is that?(not very &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="middle" border="0"&gt; lol). When the nurse asked my parents what name they wanted to give me, my Mum, Sandra Shaw, was about to call me Damion(:S)but luckily my Dad, Richard Shaw, interupted and said 'Thomas, we're going to call him Thomas'(Thank god &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="middle" border="0"&gt;). So I was named Thomas Peter Shaw, and I love my name &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"&gt; although I get called Tom so much that people are surprised that my full name is Thomas lol. My middle name, Peter, was given to me because my Uncle Peter died of HIV a while before I died. I wish i could of met him, the stories about him inspire me &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"&gt; He really lived life to the fullest. But that is a story for another time.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;   So I had been born, I was taken back to my house in Tang Hall(An area in York)and was greeted by my Brother, Ashley Shaw, he was 6 when I was born. His 6th birthday was 2 days before I was born, so there is exactly 6 years and 2 days between us. My brother has Cerebral Polsey(its latin for 'Brain Damage')but that is another blog i need to do lol. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;   Right, I was a healthy new born baby in a normal sized house with happy parents, a loving brother and a life waiting to be lived...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(Thanks for reading this autobiography, I may only be 15 years old but I still have had an eventful life. Most of the information I've used is from stories I've been told, I obviouly can't remember back that far lol. I will be continuing this autobiography, so watch out for the next part. It gets more interesting as I get older lol. Thank you muchos!)&lt;/p&gt;

So because my brother, Ash, has learning difficulties(i prob should do a blog bout that, hmm) he needed someone to look after him. I was 13 at the time so it was Illeagal for me to look after him. sO my mum got my step-sister and my step-sister's mate, to look after us(not that i need looking after lol). All four of us had a wicked time, playing games, and everyone was getting drunk(exept me duh!) so i just sat there and laughed at them. Anyways, earlier me and Ash had spagheti bolognese but we got offered a take away that we couldn't refuse. We had the take away and later on went to bed. One hour later, I woke up and ran to the toilet, because I couldn't stop being sick!!! And neither could my brother!&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;So the next day, Christmas day, supposedly one of the best days of the year. Me and my brother spent the day, looking like death warmed up! We were paler than dead dove(sorry bout the unneeded metaphor lol) and it was a pretty rubbish day! We were so ill that even if our mum gave us THE best present imaginable, Me and Ash would've just said 'Meh' lol. everything was about as exciting as socks! We couldn't even have Christmas Dinner! &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;So, what was your worst Christmas?&lt;/p&gt;

I've been ill all week so I'm staying home again today, so there is no rush to get out of bed. But I can hear the sound of a news reporter buzzing in my ear, probably because I went to sleep with the radio on(again). My mum always complains when I do that, she says it wastes electricity. So, the newsreporter keeps saying '6 inches of snow, up in scotland and northern England'. I think to myself 'OOO, Northern England, thats where I live!'. So I got to get up now! I try to open my eyes but my eyelids are glued together. They're like magnets, that just won't part. But eventually I manage to wake my self up, I slap my face a couple of times(just to be sure). I rise from my bed and slowly open the curtains, and on the other side of my window is just pure whiteness!(don't know if thats a word) Only about one inch of snow, but I'm not fussy. The sky is like a blank canvas, being painted by squaking seaguls and magical magpies that are dancing above the rooftops. The snow is still falling, like tiny feathers they lightly hit the ground, in their hundreds. I would go out and throw snowballs a inadimit objects, but I want to get rid of this cold before I go to New York! Only 13 days to go!&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;I have a good feeling about this Christmas, I'm dreaming of a White Christmas.&lt;/p&gt;

But I'll explain all that now.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Right, first off, we'll start with what has been and gone. I went on holiday 4 weeks ago to Sherwood forest, home of the famous Robin Hood. It was more of an activity holiday than anything else. I took a wildlife photography class and I learnt alot from that. Yet, the food was crap lol. My holiday finished a day before halloween, so on halloween I went on a date with my love intrest. It was great, I asked her out, she said yes. BUT, a couple of weeks later she dumped me wihout much of a reason. So I was left a little bit confused. THEN five days later she said she was wrong to dump me and she wanted me back. I said yes, but then I didn't see her as much as I'd have liked to. She said she loved me, but I don't think that she showed it enough. Anywho, It's over now I'm a free man.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Phew I'm glad thats over with, ok, now let me tell you about the here and now. I'm Ill, I've been off school three days now, today is the third day. It can get SOOO boring, I have no-one to talk to, exept my Mum, WOOO *sarcasm*. And my entertainment is watching crappy christmas movies. Oh and I got my MOCK exam results(they are fake exams so that you can get an idea of how you'll do in the real one). I got a B in Maths(very good), a C in english(awsome for me!!! I usually do crap), I got an E in Electronics(crap, but our teacher didnt teach us half of it) and finally Geography well I think the marking machine was broke because everyone got U's lol. Most people would see these results and be worried, but not me &lt;img src="/img/smilies/graybigrazz.gif" alt=":P" class="middle" border="0"&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Now for the best bit, the future. Well first off it is christmas very soon(WOO) but before that I am going to... NEW YORK!!!! Oh My God, I can't wait! My hotel is five minutes away from Central Park, and I'll have a view of the Empire State Building!!!! How awsome is that? Ok, now I must depart, but I'll have alot of time on my hands today, so expect lots more posts.&lt;/p&gt;

So, basically im talking love today, I guess i haven't been very lucky in love, well... EVER really. Every girlfriend I had has ended horribly in one way or the other, well Everyone of them excluding a few. In this blog im going down BAD memory lane to inform you of how rubbish and embaressing my past relationships have been (and im only 15 :S). Let me explain...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Some of my friends say im lucky to have had so many girlfriends from an early age, but im not so sure. Yes, on one hand, it IS good I have learnt alot and mainly realised what NOT to do... but it doesnt make any difference, God still finds new ways to mess with my head. Countless girlfriends and all of them walked all over me, and when I find someone new I always believe 'Oh no, she wouldn't do that to me.' WRONG! But as I explained, I get used to it. So, I'll start from the beginning...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Right, I had my first girlfriend when I was 5, her name was Jessica Lane and I cant remember much about her but i do remember that she was latino, she was very clingy and her mum and my mum were friends. It didnt last because she had to move and I never saw her again. Then quite a few girlfriends including a girl called Laura Horner but I fnished her for a girl called Shaunie. That was a BIG mistake she cheated on me and this was when I was ten! I never even knew things like that happened when your ten! Oh and by cheating I mean I found her kissing my mate behind a sofa :S. Then I went to secondary school, Oh God...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;In the first two years I went to secondary I went to easingwold secondary. I had no girlfriends in this time but I learnt what its like to get rejected in one of the WORST ways. So in year seven there was a girl in my form called Natalie Sleighthome, and I really fancied her but was too embaressed to say. So near the end of the year I plucked up the courage, kinda, I gave her a HUGE bar of her favourite chocolate and a note saying 'I love you'(btw I was 12, i didnt know how stupid that was to do). Anyways she ate all the chocolate and said no &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="middle" border="0"&gt;. Then i moved to huntington, where i had a long streak of short relationships...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;First i met a girl called ashleigh, and she was cheating on me from the second i went out with her. Then there was a girl called katie, who dumped me after a  week for no other reason than she got bored of me. After that there was a girl called charlotte who was really shy so i never saw her, then her parents split and she finished me. After that I had no one for another year. Then along came Amy who was perfect, or so I thought...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Amy was a very good friend of mine, and she fanciesd me for ages and I said 'no, no, it will ruin our friendship' and i eventually said yes and it did ruin our friendship. It was all great at first, we spent everyday together, but you know the saying 'if its too good to be true, it probably is'. She suddenly stopped seeing me for no reason, she was alway ''busy''. So I said to her 'I think we should just be friends' But we arent as good friends as we used to be...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;So now we are yp to present day and there is alove interest once more. Her name is Sophie and shes brilliant, Energetic and funny. She always picks me up when im down as i always do for her. And I dont want to go head over heals for her, but sometimes i just cant help my self &lt;img src="/img/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" class="middle" border="0"&gt; My new moto is 'trust them untill proven untrustworthy' and even if there isnt a happy ending, as long as I enjoy the story then thats all that counts. So, I guess I'll see how it goes, untill next time...&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;LOVE&lt;br&gt;

I remove the snug sheets that were covering me, even though i was unwilling. The cold condensated air hit me like an overweight circus freak being shot out of a canon at my stomach, all i want to do is climb back into comfy home i call my bed. Reluctant to do so, i slapped myself a couple of times, yo wake myself up, and turned on my bedroom light. The light filled the room and blinded my eyes, like a young boy staring at the sun too long cuz he thinks it would be fun. After a while my very sensative, and now very sore, eyes ajusted to the light. My brain is now working, not very well but ts better than nothing, and I decide to go make my self a cappuccino. I walk through the corridor like a zombie searching for brains. I walk into the kitchen and turn on the light and my eyes, still being sore, feel dazed once again. I make my cappuccino and slowly return to my room. When i get there I take a sip of my cappuccino and i can suddenly feel the caffine rushing through my veins and up into my brain. It felt lkie a million light switches turned on in my head. Once i drink all of my cappuccino I am awake and raring to go. I get dressed, have my breakfast, brush my teeth and get my school bag. I walk through the house to the front door, after taking almost an hour to wake up. I place my shoes on my feet and go to open the door. As I do this I realise there is a note on the door saying&lt;br&gt;
   "Remeber it's a bank holiday today, love Mum"...&lt;br&gt;
.&lt;br&gt;
