Poetry from the mind of Charlie Sheen

A Thoughtless Soul
By Charlie Sheen

As he pulled his head,
From the drool stained pillow,
His eyes blood red,
His oxygen shallow.

Feet on carpet,
That pain to fight,
These are the effects,
Of another night.

A night of drink,
A night of hate,
A night as dark,
As last nights date.

A look to the mirror,
No face of youth,
Self inflicted carnage,
A cracked and hollow tooth.

This punishment a vile choice,
So worthless, yet so bold.
Carving lines of disrespect,
This young lad growing old.

Yet masking truth and hiding pain,
Will surely take it's toll,
Will he unto others, or to himself,
Remain a thoughtless soul?

···


I.D. Blues
By Charlie Sheen

"Excuse me, aren't you...?"
"Hey, you look just like..."
"Oh my God, that's..."
"Sorry to interrupt your dinner, but aren't you..."
"Look, I never do this, but, my wife thinks you're..."
"My friend is so convinced that you're..."
"I'm so embarrassed, but, aren't you...?"
"I know you must be tired of this, but..."
"WAIT!!"
All eyes held in stare, all mouths locked open in shock, as he pulled the latex Charlie Sheen mask from his head, revealing the rotted skull of President Lincoln.

···


Heretic Proof
By Charlie Sheen

Endive, undead, unbroken,
Unwed,
Relax, relate, rehab,
Drug addict,
Pursue, persuade, persist,
Per-petuate [sic] your own death
By smiling a lot.
Supply, succumb, deny—everything.
Always.
Turtle, android, pain.
Endeavor, endless, end.

P.S. Janonis.

#TigerBloodIntern

Here is my video that I finally unlocked and submitted for the Charlie Sheen Intern search: Round 3!
The question I answered was:
If you were the Social Media Director for a major humanitarian aid organization, how would you create awareness and raise money via social media in the aftermath of a global disaster?

I have my fingers, toes, and eyes crossed in hopes that I will get put through to the next round! And to all the others that have made it this far, Good luck!

Charlie Sheen's Social Media Intern


#Fastball
Yes, I have applied to be Charlie Sheen's Social Media Intern. I have made it to round 2 and just sent in my resume for this round. Now time to cross fingers, toes, and eyes to make it to the next round.
I applied because I love love love social media, obviously I use it in every way I can. I have a voice and I want to share it as far as I can. Even though I can be called the social media queen by those who know me, there is still so much to learn and I am eager to learn more in everything I do. What better way to learn then to help run social media for currently the most famous and talked about celebrity!?

As well as learning vast amounts of information on managing social media, this opportunity will also give me such a great platform to lift off with my career. With a platform like this I could be able reach so many people, and with the better knowledge of social media I could project my voice that much louder. In a summer internship like this I could learn how to make my voice louder so I can tell the world my thoughts and ideas. This is a key step for being successful in my career choice. I need my voice to be loud so I can reach all those who are in need of help. As Charlie says, "I've got one speed, GO!" I am always into something new and exciting in my life. I am always in for an adventure and I never let my life go dull. This is why I'm #Winning.
If I was the lucky one to nab the Internship, I could use that in a way no other could. This could be the start of the rest of my #Winning life. My platform for changing the world would just get that much bigger!

I know I am going to get criticism for this but thats the critics prerogative. I know what I am doing and I am going full force into this. My philosophy is to grab at every "Once in a life time" oppertunities that come my way. You only live once so why the hell not!?!?! Take a chance, stand out in the crowd. If you are lucky enough to be different, don't ever change.

Life is a crazy, amazing, beautiful ride


This past week has been one of the wildest most amazing times of my life! It all started out when I heard that one of my hero's, Keith Urban, was going to be in my city performing a free show!! I was so ecstatic that I couldn't even finish the class I was in, I ran out of there and started working out the plans. It turned out that the first 200 people to buy Keith's new C.D. at the mall would get front of the line passes! So of course I just had to camp out at the mall, starting at midnight to make sure I got that pass. That turned out to be one of the most fun crazy nights I have ever had! We call ourselves the Fab 10 ;) I never knew any of these amazing people before that night and because of Keith we have all come together and are like family to each other now. I have memories from that night that I will forever remember, like dancing to the Cha Cha Slide and the Cadillac Ranch at four in the morning for example :D We were the first people in the store that morning and we all got our passes!!!
After this, we all split up and got ready for the big concert happening the next day. We all showed up at the mall bright and early the next morning to wait for Keith!! :D While waiting we made posters and oh so many memories! Our group was interviewed by a few news crews and we were also live on the local country radio station at one point! Also, prior to this I had entered two different contests for front of the line passes, one through the mall it was being hosted at, and one from Keith Urban's website.... I ended up winning BOTH!!!!!! Luckiest most amazing day of my life!! :D I made a postcard for Keith and just wrote a little blurb in it about how he saved my life with his music and his life story. When we all got let in to where he would be playing I was absolutely shocked by how close to the stage and how close I would be to Keith when he came out!!
When the concert started I felt like I was just in a dream land! I was so close to Keith that if I reached out my hand I could touch him! I never thought I would get that close to him in my life. It was that moment that I noticed... Wow, all my dreams are really coming true!" Seeing him on that stage and watching him play that up close was beyond belief! I started thinking about where my life has been in the past and how truly grateful I am that Keith's music came into my life at the perfect moment to save it. A few short years ago I didn't think moments like the one I was experiencing was even possible. I really didn't think life could be this beautiful! I am so so happy that Keith helped me see what life really is and that it really really is worth living! I have been waiting and hoping I would get to tell Keith in person "Thank you for saving my life" and that moment was soon approaching! After the concert was over it was time for the autographs! When it was my time to go up to him I was in total shock! He reached out for my CD to autograph with one hand and went to shake my hand with the other and said "What's your name sweetheart?" After stumbling over my words I managed to get out "Stephanie". He went to start signing the CD and while he was doing that I said to him "I just want to let you know, your music saved my life" Keith paused for a second, stopped signing my CD and looked up into my eyes. The connection that were in our eyes was like no other connection I have ever felt before. He knew exactly what I meant when I said that because he had also been down the road I had and he just got it. Then he said in a soft voice "I am so glad you are here" at that point the tears just swelled up in my eyes because those few words from him was the most powerful thing that was EVER said to me. What he meant when he said that wasn't that he was glad I was there at the concert, it was him saying he was glad I was alive. For a celebrity like Keith Urban to say that to me was just beyond words especially when the opposite message has been thrown at me before in my life. I walked away from that autograph table truly a different person, and the best part was I got to spend the rest of the evening with my new found family and share my excitement and love for life with them all! :D
Now three days later and I am still flying high and still trying to take everything in!!! I was broadcasted on the news right across Canada, I was on the front page of the biggest Newspapers in my city, and a youtube video from the local radio station was put up of me and some of the other Fab 10 girls yelling out "We love you Keith"!!
I can't wait until September 21st to do it all over again, and have a road trip to see him in Calgary on the 23rd! I am so so so so excited! Can't wait to have another experience like that with the rest of the Fab 10!!!! :D
"It's all we've been giving, so you better start living right now cause days go by!" - Keith Urban

Life is what you make it so what are YOU waiting for?! Go for it because dreams DO come true!!!!

Post Secret


A few days ago I was so blessed to be able to go to a Post Secret Live event! It was one of the most amazing extraordinary moments of my life! If you do not know what Post Secret is click here to view the web site. A guy named Frank Warren started this as a project, he went out on the streets of his town and handed out blank post cards to strangers and asked them to anonymously send him a secret on it. This turned in to a world phenomenon fast, Frank now gets thousand's of secrets every week! Frank to me is a hero especially after seeing him live. A live event is very intimate, its created like this because many people at these events share their secrets including Frank. I deeply respect Frank for creating this environment for people to share their deep dark secrets in a safe and loving way. I have sent in secrets and it was the most amazing feeling to make them and then just drop them in a mail box, I felt so free and happy to be able to leave my secrets. Post Secret was also how I learned the very valuable lesson that I am not alone! While reading secrets I came across many that I could say "Hey, thats my secret too!" I realized how many people out their are going through the exact same thing as I am. This was a huge and healing realization for me and I am sure I am not the only one who has felt this. The live event was just indescribable, there were many laughs and many tears, and so much love in that room. If Post Secret ever comes to your community I HIGHLY recommend you go because I can promise you it will change your life, like it did mine.

"It's the children the world almost breaks who grow up to save it." — Frank Warren ♥
