ev

 i haven't been around here much since i made it, i'm very sorry for that. i will be around from now on as the season has quietened down and i find myself with a lot more time on my hands than i had before. enough, evidently, to fall asleep in the car today and not notice somebody taking a picture!

christmas was charming. so's new year. i met somebody who intrigued me a few weeks ago. my attention was caught like a fish gets caught on a hook and the fisher in question has yet to let it go. we leave letters for each other very often. long ones, pages full of scribblings about what we're feeling at any given time. and we send pictures and texts and emails constantly, call each other multiple times a day but while we're lying in one another's arms, kissing and cuddling and sharing our generally personal space, we don't say a word. there is no reason for this. i care deeply for my silent stranger and feel that if things were to change, the feelings might change too.

greetings!
i suppose the best way to start off a diary is to introduce myself. as the writer, i know this already. my name is evan keogh. while many people call me many things, "evan" "keogh" "ev" "evvy" and "evvy wevvy" are the most common. sometimes scangers say "you with the hair" when they are addressing me but i often ignore them because they arent my friends and i dont intend on ever being in a position to consider them as such. im seventeen years of age - just in time for christmas. personally i dont think much of this age yet. i can get piercings now without consent but considering i already have my lip and monroe done, i dont really care much about this. i can also have sex now. but im not a virgin so this doesnt affect me either. i still cant drink or vote but i can join the army!

as far as school goes, i dont like it much. i do higher level subjects which mean i suppose im above average in the head ^^ i take nine subjects - irish, french, english, maths, art, music, biology, physics and chemistry. i used to be very involved with drama and was danny in our production of grease last year but now im in sixth year and am not allowed to participate any more... im saddened by this but such is life! i like music a lot but my taste fluctuates. right now metro station are one of my favourite bands but i really like everything short of hsm which i havent seen but what ive heard of it hasnt caught my attention much. i like most movies, too. like much of my generation i use aim a lot more than i should - my screen name is lick their paws like most of my things. it is a phrase from a song :)

as a person, i think i am a bit shy. ive got a twin sister named edel, a younger sister called emma and an older sister called sarah who has a daughter named caitlin. i am pretty much the only boy in my family since most of my cousins are girls. i live with my twin sister, younger sister, parents and great aunt but people come and go. currently a french student named jacques is staying with us. i tend to make a fool of myself sometimes because i talk before i think and when drinking i get very... affectionate. but i like to snuggle most of the time, its just who i am. saying that, im pansexual. it doesnt bother me what somebodys gender is. im unattached at the moment, crushing on a girl whos way out of my league. she knows it, laughs at it and dismisses me as some sort of sad-o. im okay with this.

i have a lot of friends, not to sound cocky or anything. today a handful of us went to my best friend ciarans house and we played twister. drunk twister. you can imagine how that ended up!

im interested in almost anything and i love new friends soooooo you should add me! im going to go now because im tired and its late.

evan
ps - that is what i look like by the way!
