HOWDY!

Melatonin.....It's a night time sleep aid, if you we're to look at the bottle, you would think it's just a normal type of vitamin, which would be true. Directions advise not to take more than 10 in a 24-hour period, so I took 9 in less then a minute. Why? Because I need to sleep, Jesus Christ I need to sleep.....

Hi, my name is Anthony, if you knew me personally you would call me PeSt. PeSt? It's a nick-name, I gave it to myself about 9 years back for several reasons, one of them being I hate bugs and creepy crawly thingies, more of that story later. Second reason being, I guess I thought it was cute or something, I wanted to be a pro wrestler, and was for a little while, yeah, I went by the name PeSt, and it's just kind of stuck with me until this day.

I live in Lake Wales, fl. Originally from a whole bunch of different parts of Pennsylvania, and New York, and well, all over Florida also. My grandfather was a professional driver, so I moved around alot, again, I guess that's another story for later.

Well, here I am.....Introducing myself at 5:30 in the morning, yeah, I havn't slept in 3 days, i'm a wreck. Before I found this site, I was watching videos on youtube, if you don't know what youtube is........It's like, that oh-so popular video sharing website, it's all the rage, psht. I searched "Insomnia", I found a bunch of videos starring 15-16 year old goth kids bragging about how they havn't slept for 1 night, and they love the high.....Oh how I hate them. Lack of sleep is no fun, everything seems distant, and cold, quiet, not real.

Disturbing? There is not many things more disturbing then looking in your bathroom mirror at 3 o' clock in the morning after 3 days with no sleep, thinking to yourself....."Is this really me? This is my life? I'm that smiling little kid in that picture hanging on my grandmas bedroom wall?" Yeah, this is my life.

Depending on who you ask, i'm 21, 20, 19, and 18 years of age, i'll let you decide which is best for your liking though. I like to read and write, travel, film, party, drink, and experiment with drugs. I hope that doesn't send off the wrong type of impression though, i'm no alcoholic crackhead. I just have some issues.

I wanted to start writing, to hopefully communicate with like-minded people. I've always enjoyed writing. Personally, writing feels like praying. It's not something I can explain, you'll have to break that one down yourself. Writing helps me to say the least.

So yeah, I look forward to meeting all of you, sorry if this is a longer introduction then you are all used to, and although I told you a little bit about myself, I felt the best way to actually let you get to know me was to describe what was happening to me, in my head here and now.

I can feel the melatonin kicking in, although it's probably taken you all of 5-minutes to read this, it's taken me about a half-hour to write. I'm getting weak, dizzy, light headed, it's time to lay down and let the vacuum of infinite space encompass me.

M&M's ... It's a nighttime snack food, if you look at the bag you would just think its a type of vitamin for cartoon characters, which ... well I don't know if that's true. Directions advise not to take more than 1/4 of a cup per serving, so I polished off the bag in less than a minute. Why? Because they are so damn good. (Plain that is, not those damned peanut).

Once again, Welcome Anthony


Sorry couldn't help myself.
