Friday :

Hey Guys.
Today is Friday, I got my pack from quitline dudes and i haven’t had a smoke in about a week. Go mi.

Well as i may have a serious anga problem i have been tryin to become calm recently, like everytime i get mad at some1 i just count to 100 in mi head nd walk way. It acctully helps. Like on Thirsday i asked mi step-dad for mi X-Box back and well he said no and i was gonna get mad but i thought of wat could happen if i did so i walked away.

So i am slowly tryin to become less of a nagg and be more nice, i decided 2 go on wikipedia and search 4 some help on how 2 be Relaxed in times when i am angery and well i found a bit of info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_technique#Techniques
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_breathing
Some of that stuff acctully works i have lowered my anger levels, i have been helping my mum out with work and stuff in da kitchen and all and she has been sayin dat i have been coming more mature. So with that thought i decided that i am acctully gonna go back 2 school on Monday 2 start getting a proper education. My mum is proud that i m going back 2 school and so am i, i am acctully gonna do work and learn this time.

I think i now realize y i put all those disgusting stuff (booze nd smokes) in mi boday was cause i felt like i was alone in the world and it may of been a substuite for school but thats just my opoion and mayb its because of mi step-dad is here cause i really miss my real dad died when i was 10, i guess i cannot see my mum happy with another guy. But i will try my hardest 2 like him.

Later that day Bob came over with his parents 2 have dinner with my family, we all sat down at da table and had pork then me and Bob went 2 his house 2 play his PS3 and the parents stayed at mine. When we got 2 Bob we went in2 his room ad he tried 2 offer me a smoke and i said no, he was tryin 2 make mi have it and well i ran home and said 2 mi parents “Bob is tryin 2 make me smoke” then his parents didn’t seem 2 happy. i was affraid they will do 2 him what my parents did 2 mi. So i steped in and said 2 his mum and dad that i will help him through quiting so his parents agreed with me.

 Saturday

I went over 2 Bob’s house 2 start 2 quit smoking, i gave him the sites 2 look at the my parents gave me:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_and_health
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoking
And he was a shocked as i was when he saw all the dangers and things put in2 smokes. i also gave him mi booklet package on the quitline stuuf which also stared 2 help him, so we decided 2 get some money from our parents so we can go 2 the store 2 get Nicotine patchs that we saw on TV they help us with our journey 2 quit smokin or somethin so yer we gave it a try. When we got them the storekeeper looked at us in a wired way i would normally yell at someone who did that but it doesn’t really bother me anymore. Then we started to play X-Box back at my place (yes i got my X-Box Back). We played for a while till we got bored and Bob went home.

Sunday:

After i woke up and had my shower i went  back 2 Bob’s, we decided we should get the message out more on how bad smokes are and what they can do 2 ya. Well i have done some part via this blog, but we went 2 were we use 2 smoke and there were a bunch of people smoking we tryed to tell them how bad it is we tried giving them ideas, sites, phone numbers but like they cared I have changed but it might be a bit 2 late for them. At least i no i am never gonna go back 2 smokin ever again. Then Bob asked me if we are gonna go 2 school 2morrow and i told that i was going, He replied he wants 2 go 2. So now we are both getting back on track with our lives. And now we understand some parts the world due 2 my parents and the suit and tie dude givin mi info from all da sites nd a good a talking 2. I acctully cannot belive i m sayin dis but i am lookin foward 2 goin 2 school 2morrow, because i m trying 2 help people and i think i would like to become a school counceller or some kina youth worka so i can help them with problems just like i had, if i wanna do dat i gotta get good scores in test nd stuff so i will do my best in school and i wanna make new friends that are not like da old me.

Thats about it folks i am going to school, Thoes Nictoine Patchs really worked i have quit smoking and my anga problem is hardley der anymore.
And its all thanks to technology and i hope this blog helps you understand how other people feel when they go 2 quit smoking.

Thanks, Kevin.

Sup all?

I am back again and well today. Yet another day of mi Kev and well yer today is my last day of mi punishment nd since mi mum took mi X-box off mi when i was punished I started to relize that i may have a proplem with mi somking nd wat not since i had nufing betta 2 do, so i decided to acctully look up one of thoes sites mi mum gave mi cause she told mi to look dem up or u get nufin so i 1 of looked dem up:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoking
Well it actuly had a lot of info i needed to see to belvie, as i was looking through it i descoverd that i may have emphaseema which i donno wat dat iz but it soundz bad eh?

Yer so anyway i still looked up all da site my mum gave me nd now i m really conserned about mi health which is wereid cause dat ain’t like me. so as i was readin through da website i beacame more and more shocked at wat was happin to me so mi mum asked me “wat ya think of smokin now?” and i though man if i keep this up i m screwed b4 i turn 23. so mi mum called da quitline for mi and they are sending a pakage down now so i can look at it to see if i can try to quit. But when i was lookin up da smoking stuff on www.google.com i found a achive on people who have quit smokin and i became a memeba and well i found out that der is alot of young knuckle heads like mi who have da same problem as mi nd wel yer we r all helping each other wif da problems wif smokin. So yer when i get da info pack from da quitline dudes i will propley never smokee agian noing what they can do 2 ya. So my opoion to you other kids out der and friends of kids who smoke and people who smoke i say DON’T SMOKE it iz bad you will get cancer and DIE!!!! (maybe) Man i smoked since i was 12 and man i think i will die if i keep dis crap up so thats y i m gonna quit when i get mi pack from the dudes up in da quitline place.

However mi parants think i have a drinkin proplem and a anger/depression proplem 2 but i don’t think i do, cause i only drink when i am pissed of or when i go 2 Jack’s house, now they r tryin to get me 2 stop drinkin 2, but hey they r propley 2 old 2 understand how good it feels 2 b off ya face its awsome but i think i may have anger issues with all the anger at mi parents and random peeps but oh well we will pick up on dat on another day. 

Catchs on the flip side peeps.

 Statement of intention:
 

 1. Give a brief summary of the task you have chosen. I have chosen number two the problems faced by young people in today’s society and how technology has helped me as a teenager make sense of the world around me.  My narrative voice is a troubled teenager who drinks and smokes and is in dire need for help due to his anger problems and his addiction to smokes and alcohol. But cannot be bothered looking for help, his name is Kevin Johnson. He likes to occasionaly have a little joke, Kevin hates almost everything in the world e.g. the stereotype emo, He is also thinks very highly of himself, but later becomes nicer and “See’s the light”. 2. What is the purpose of your blog?
The purpose of this blog is to show that there is away to solve almost anything in the world weather it’s sadness, bullying and anger issues.  There is always a way to find the help you need no matter how hard it is for you, it will be beneficial for you in the end.

Wats up my name is Kevin but you can call me Kev, I ‘m 15 and I love 2 smoke and drink every-time i get the chance too also this blogging cause no one knows who I am so i can do wat eva I want, I hate a lot of thing in this world such as all those stereotypes for e.g. those  stupid emos and punks and those other losers I hate them all, they just make me so mad who do they think they are thinking there so good.

See I hate school now it’s so boring i donno if i should even bother, It’s like a waste of my time so I just wag and go drinking and smoke with my mates its so much better den learning useless things at school, all I need 2 know is that 1+1=2 and I am fine.

When I went to the city with my mates lets just say there names r Bob and Jack we saw these stupid Emos sitting on the stairs near the MCG so i started 2 give dem lip cause we don’t like them and i hate der hair it’s so lame here is a pic of der hair if anyone didn’t know what day look like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emos#Fashion_and_stereotype,I  Then we went to fed square and stayed der 4 a bit then mi mum caught me out of school smoking when we were der. She went skitzo at mi and tryed to drag me in da car in fury I pulled away from her and ran with Bob and Jack to Jack’s place.

Jack’s parents r kool day let us drink and smoke wif dem so yer we got hammered at Jack’s place then some person knocked on Jack’s door and we all got up to answer the door all off our faces and it was mi mum and my step-dad and he grabed mi and pulled me into the car and took mi home.

When I got home mi step-dad threw mi into my room and yelled at mi so i ran then he chased me around the room then I ran out the front door. About 2 hours later they found me smoking in a carpark near Michell Road. So they took mi home once again and this time my step-dad sat me down on the chair and held me there so i wouldn’t move, he was saying stuff like “you need 2 get help” and I just get telling him “it’s my dam life not yours and if i wanna screw it up its my problem not yours. you got no say anyway David your not even my father”. He went spazz, then mi mum brought some guy in a suit and tie in and he was supposed to be helping with my problems, he started talking about these sites and stuff I should go on 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_and_health
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoking
and more And well of course I just told him to get lost and attempeted to run but i couldn’t so my step-dad sent me too my room. Gees some  punishment i have a computer and a X-box in here, Some punishment that is stupid noob.

Until next time cya bros and gals.
