Since the Forums don’t really have a place to just talk to people I’ve decided to make my own little Forum area where you can ask me questions about anything on my blog or just talk to me. That way I won’t be adding false comments to my own posts. Feel free to ask or say anything on this page.
I’ve been noticing some confusion as to my gender. I would like to clear that up by saying I am in fact a guy. However I don’t really care what you think of me as because I understand that it’s easier to read things from certain people than it is from others. You can talk to me about WHATEVER you want to. I will not judge you, I’ve made some mistakes in my life too, I will simply offer advice (if you ask me to). Feel free to say anything that you want to while on this page.
You may also contact me here: willowbatel@aol.com if you truly feel the need. Be forewarned, I rarely check this account. Your best chance of contacting me is on this page. All comments are pre-scanned by me (I like to know when I get a comment) so you can ask me not to show it if you want.
I wish to express my appreciation to you just for rescuing me from this predicament.
Because of looking throughout the the net and obtaining tricks that were
not pleasant, I figured my entire life was gone. Existing minus the solutions to the
issues you’ve solved by means of your good guide is a critical case, as well as those which might have in a negative way affected my career if I had not noticed your blog post. Your main natural talent and kindness in dealing with all areas was useful. I’m not sure what I would have done if I
had not come across such a point like this. I’m able to at this point look forward to my future. Thanks a lot very much for this high quality and sensible guide. I will not hesitate to recommend your web sites to anybody who ought to have guidelines about this matter.
Would you happen to know what happened to Amber?
She graduated and hasn’t been talking to me much. And she has no internet at her house so she can’t sign on to talk or post or anything.
IM ALIIIIVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE! AND I WENT TO WRESTLEMANIA!
Was it fun?
Site i found that talks about repeating numbers. And psychic stuff…

OMG. You don’t even know right now.
“Your gut feelings tend to be more reliable than your “rational” understanding”
And this is my favorite: “Don’t stick your head in the sand when you realize something within the relationship is not quite right.” I seriously considered asking John out at lunch while I was on the bus. That is, just after 10:10. OMG it’s 8:08 right now!!! eeiiipppppeee!
I came across this site looking up good looking guys and I have to say, I am in love with this blog. It’s not dull like most I have come aross and it holds my attention (a feat in itself, lol)
I have to say I’m impressed on how open you are about your sexuality, it is very refreshing considering how many hide it. I have no clue why though, who cares what others think, why give a damn. haha.
If I was to give out an award to you, it would be for been the most awesome and open person I know (not that I actually know you that well but hey, who cares about that). And your life sounds a lot like mine….school equals sleep and try to pass, and then procrastinate and fill in time with whatever you can find.
A bad life I think but it works.
And I’m outta things to say so cya
Kalyn
Lol, those men do draw a bit of attention to my blog. *sigh* They make me feel good and bad about myself at the same time lol. I stand by what I say though. Give me any one of them and some chocolate sauce and they would be eaten.
It’s really hard being a gay/lesbian. You face sooo much ridicule from everyone, sometimes even your own parents. And then you also have to deal with your own thoughts and feelings on who you are and how that fits into the world and the ideas you’ve spent your whole life creating. It’s a difficult thing, being different.
Lol, I thank you for your awards. It’s not everyday that I get such nice compliments like that. If any. 80% of my day is spent in silence actually…
I look forward to hearing from you again!
I love this lil blog! Id like to give you an award if you will accept it.
I think your awesome!
and you can bet I will be back for more.
dGb!
Aww, thank you! This is so unexpected! I’d like to thank all of the little people. Without them, I wouldn’t be the fabulous star I am today!
Lol.
So Rivvy has been updating his blog :3 I’m sitting here smiling like an idiot reading his blog lol
Omg I haven’t had time to read it! I’ll definitely check it soon! Any yummy pics? lol
I’m sure you’ve seen the blog by now haha 🙂 I just thought it was funny how many pics he had! I was prepared to read a short post but then I kept scrolling and scrolling lol. His English is cute too…XD. He’s got the use of apostrophes down though 🙂
yessssssssssssssss: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJILtqvXvmI
Omg I hate you so much right now! I have to do my stupid Italian! Ahhh!! I don’t want to speak Italian right now! I want to watch the Spanish hottie! Not fair! Wah!
Aha! Lo siento 🙂 I’m totally loving how much he’s updating though, especially with the vids mmmm
I forgot to watch this! I went to his blog to check things out, but nothing is mentioned there! UGH!! I watched the video without sound and was JEALEOUS of the women who was oiling him up. SOOO not fair that she actually get’s paid to do that!
I failed my permit test by ONE!!! Argh!!! Retaking it tomorrow, though, so hopefully we get some better news.
You can go take your test again after one day? We are required to wait a week at least, but due to the population, it’s usually at least two weeks before you can take it again.
Wishing you luck!
Today I drove next to people! Do you know what this means? I am one step closer to my license, which is one step closer to leaving home, kidnapping you, and us running away to Italy. Then France. Always wanted to go there, and I know more French then I do any other language, excluding english.
Also, I’ve decided it’s a good thing we disagree on stuff, because there’ll always be something to talk about. My only RLBFF (Real life best friend forever) and I had pretty much everything in common, down to our home lives, and likes and dislikes, and she’s pretty much thrown me to the curb. People say that opposites attract, and also that birds of a feather flock together. i think they’re wrong. people aren’t magnets or birds. They are stupid, common senseless idiots who’s goals in life are to constantly break the mold. Call me crazy, but a gay kid from Washington who is a beekeeper and a sarcastic black chick from Arizona who’s passion is sleeping and reading are just about as mold breaking as it gets. Huh. Not at all what i expected to say. Just wanted to inform you that we are one step closer to freedom, and all this came out. Ah, well. needed to be said.
lol my driving test is next Tuesday, so I might just come down and kidnap you.
That’s true. If we were too similar things could get boring after a while. And, believe it or not, I do enjoy the occasional argument. So be prepared for some heated discussions if we’re locked in a car for several hours. Lol. Love you.
I didn’t really want to ask anything out of my problems. But, I need to ask YOU something. Which side are you on? Democratic or Republican? I know probably Washington is a Republican state. But, so is Georgia and I’m a democrat. Oh I forgot to mention LONG TIME ago I give this blog a 10 star ranking out of 5. Just like I said before, I am obsessed with this blog. LITERALLY. 😀
I don’t know what my political standing is. I just listen to both sides of the argument (if only half heartedly when I hear something on TV) and then go from there. I’m probably more of a democrat though. And I think Washington is a democratic state.
And thanks…? lol
Oh, so you’re neutral. I thought your state was a communist country, not to be offensive. My mom and dad’s countries were communists, they negated Christianity, and I’m still wondering how my mom would’ve lived her life believing in God. Luckily, I don’t have to have problems believing in God.
Lol, how can Washington State be a communist COUNTRY? You make me laugh.
Do I make you laugh in the stupid way, or the good way? I thought, alright, because much of USA is uptight so I thought the main state in USA would be a communist as well.
Let’s just say I’m laughing at you, not with you. Lol.
And Washington isn’t the main state lol. It’s the coffee capital of the nation… I think. Idk, there’s something about coffee. We are the evergreen state for sure though. And the apple state.
Sorry babe, but Washington will forever be known as the Twilight state. *Sad Face*
I hardly ever see real twilights. I mean the time of day, not super oober super goober super fans.
Twilight sucks. I’m disowning the twilight version of the world, but especially Washington.
yeah… America as a whole is pretty anti-communism. I’m not even going to comment on the Washington is a country comment. If I do, it’ll turn into a rant, which will make no sense. And most likely insult someone. Ah, well.
Lol, good call not offending anyone.
or click this! http://hockeyandmore44blog.wordpress.com/
Oh yeah! My new site is here!! Click my username! 🙂
Great! I will when I have the time, for sure!
The new one is coming tomorrow! I’ll post a link tomorrow if you wanna see the mini-version of the new blog! 😉
I think I’ll wait for the whole thing. What’s this one about?
LOL. No worries – it will be open to public tomorrow but obviously will have less at first JTLYK. 🙂
.. actually I’m gonna work on a new one this week and once I open it, I’ll link ya! 😉
Sounds good.
Hey Willow, I have decided to cancel my current main blog and start over. What I have now is too much to keep up with and if I re-opened tomorrow, it would look messy. Besides, starting new gives me all kinds of new ideas for new stuff! It may be a while for the new one to be open to public, but once it is, I’ll be sure to let you know! 😉
Lol, I can’t keep up with you.
JTLYK Willow, my blog is re-opening Saturday, June 5th! 🙂 – This Saturday!
What does JTLYK mean? IMO abbreviations that are too long like that are annoying. I learned a new one today. My teacher actually used it WHILE teaching. TBDBM. To be determined by me. I wanted to smack him. Lol.
Quick question: are you a guy or a girl? I feel really bad asking that (given my history) but female hockey players are rare and sporty guys that read my blog are rarer. So I’m just wondering which category of rare you fall under.
What is your blog about that it’s taking this much prep time? You’ve been working on this for over a month now; what could possibly be taking so long?
Anyway, ttyl. Sorry, haha, I had to fit another abreviation in, just because.
Haha, it’s fine! It’s Just to let you know. I’m a boy that discovered your blog from Mayank(2icarly3) – he’s one of my former Twitter buddies. I’ve had a lot of graphics put up and lots of pages that would look messy if I had it open. But it WILL open on Saturday! And it will be random with a TON of stuff – you will prob be overwhelmed compared to what you’re used to on most blogs! 😉 Hope you can visit! 😀 and oh yeah, the teacher thing – OK!? I never woulda guessed that! xD TTYL
I should probably go revisit his blog. I’ve managed to completely forget about it. Not that it’s hard to do when you’re me. How old are you then? Early teens?
And it’s all about hockey?! I suppose posting tons of pictures about that wouldn’t be hard. Are you going to update often? What happens when Hockey season is over?
As long as you get it up soon. Otherwise I’m going to be too busy until Monday, two weeks from now.
Yep, Early teens. Hockeyandmore44 was just my username on Twitter like Mayank’s “2icarly3” – the blog doesn’t have a lot to do with it, it’s just my username that I happened to title my blog. 🙂 And it WILL open Saturday. Depending on where you live it will re-open 7 PM England, 2 Eastern, 11 California time. 🙂 Hope you can come! 😀 – and when hockey season’s over, I just watch baseball! xD
Well I’m glad you’re so open minded at such a young age. People my age (and older) still haven’t figured it out yet.
I’ll definitely try to check it out this weekend.
Hey Willow! Just wanted to say that I really like your blog! If you ever would like to view mine, it will be open in a month or so; It’s currently under constuction and is locked to viewers. I would love if you could visit sometime once it’s open! Again, Awesome Blog! 🙂
Thanks. Lol ok I’ll try and remember. You’re probably going to have to come and bug we though, because I’m sure I won’t be able to.
When are you going to open it to the public? I’ve been waiting to see it for over a month now.
Hey, I accidentally stumbled upon your site by Googling “Unexpected Acquaintances”. Wasn’t expecting what i found, it’s good to know there are people out there like you that are proactive enough to do and say things like this.
I am straight, and of a relatively similar age. Yet, at my school those who discriminate are discriminated upon… I have never heard of anyone being wrongly accused for their sexuality or nationality without being severely shamed or punished by fellow students or authority figures. I find it frustrating that there are intolerant and disrespectful people out there.
Life can be a pain sometimes, and bad things are always happening to the best of us. I would just like to wish you the best of luck.
(Note – I am Grammar Nazi. Hail Spelling)
The best racism is intended to not be taken seriously 🙂
Me? Proactive? You must’ve only skimmed my blog. I don’t DO anything. I sit for an hour+ a day and bitch about the events of said day. *shrugs* don’t know why but people seem to like it.
Thank you for your support. There are only a handful of gay/lesbian students at my school so as much support as there is, there is twice that suppressing it. I don’t know how many times a week I get glared at or shouted at from across the hall just because of my sexuality.
I’m glad you took the time to comment and say such nice things. There are very few guys I know who would bother. So again, thanks.
btw: Interesting statement: “Stalk me from the comfort of your inbox”. Isn’t following somebody’s blog, or channel, or page or ….. whatever, sort of, by definition, “stalking”? If you put your page/channel/blog out there for the whole world to see but there’s one particular person you don’t want to see it and they visit it every day anyway; is that stalking? It can’t be, right? Because it’s like putting notes and pictures up on a community bulletin board. You’re not seeing the actual person; they’re not seeing you; they’re putting it out there for ANYBODY to see; so could it possibly be defined as “stalking”? I hope not! Otherwise I might be getting a visit from the FBI! 😦 It might even be my nephew who works in the Cyber Crimes division of the FBI! Oooops! 🙂 lol!
But it is kind of stalking in a way don’t you think? Whoever follows my blog, is listening to every thought I have about things, and see’s far deeper into my life than a lot of people who are close to me. It really just depends though. Because isn’t stalking only considered stalking when a person is OBSESSED? If a person just checks my blog everyday, they aren’t really doing anymore than listening to a friend over a phone everyday.
I think it’s only really considered stalking if it’s unwanted and it disturbs you in some way.
After all, consider celebrities. I’m sure there are ALL KINDS of whackos who watch them all the time that they would prefer didn’t watch them but, as long as they don’t do or say anything to disturb them, what can they do? Or think? I suppose in that sort of situation you just have to get used to the fact that there are people watching you that you pray you never meet in person and you just have to avoid thinking much about it too much! lol!
That’s got to be especially true for child celebrities….and their parents! 🙂 Or porn stars! lol!
Yeah, I think the definition of stalker changes for every circumstance.
Lmao. I like how you jump from child stars to porn stars.
For a long time I conducted an experiment where I didn’t tell people my gender on youtube and not ONE SINGLE PERSON ever asked my gender. Apparently a lot of people assumed I was female.
I didn’t mind though.
I sometimes wish I were female.
The assumptions people make never cease to astound me. You can check out why they thought I was female if you want.
It’s at http://www.youtube.com/user/skydancer365
People asked me sometimes, which I found very annoying. It’s hard to blame people though, when they honestly just assume things like that without the intention of causing hurt feelings.
Hi Willow. I saw that you have been commenting on my blog, so I came to check out yours. It’s really nice. I’ll probably be coming back. 🙂
First of all, thank you for using the Talk To The Writer page. No one uses it; but these types of comments are perfect for this page. It doesn’t lock you into reading a whole post (and more often than not, mine are very long) but it still lets me know who’s looking at my blog. So you just got major awesome-points lol.
Haha. I added you to my blogroll as well. 🙂
Well thank you
Hi Willow! I’ve recently come back to blogging, so I’ve just decided to stop by! You still have a fantastic blog! 🙂 I’m happy you haven’t lost the integrity of it even after so long. I’d like to hear about you being happier though yourself though! I always feel like cheering you up!
By the way, I’m very sorry for repeating “Though” twice. Or more, I should say sorry to myself. It drives me to the point of insanity.
Thanks.
Yeah, I’m going through another low point in my life for the moment I think. I’ve been through worse though, so I don’t expect this to last long, lol.
Hey Dude. Nice words, Cool writing, love your style – You gotta Fan here. Keep up the good work. I’ll be back. PSYIMAN.
Thanks, most of the time I feel like I’m terrible at this. All I manage to do is whine hahaha. Very rarely do I bring up a topic that sparks the level of interest your topics do.
Hey Willow! Checked out the choco drink recipe as well! 🙂 Very nice
Hey Willow, uh, I was trying to reply to your comment via email, but the one that was in the comment info of your comment (lockedemonthese@yahoo.com) gave me a failure notice. Can you comment again with an email I can reply to you on? 🙂
That email doesn’t work anymore but wordpress won’t let me change it. Contact me at willowbatel@aol.com
so will you be going christmas presents?
I think my mom is trying to get us some stuff even though we can’t afford it. We’ll be broke until we can do our taxes
Do you like cookies? or brownies? what baked good do you like most? i’m planning a little something, but i need input first. also, you celebrate christmas, yes?
Lol you said brownies and it made me think the post I wrote yesterday. I prefer white chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies, or snicker doodle. Yea I celebrate Christmas but I don’t know what we’re doing this year since we’ll be moved in right around the 20’Th and one week is not enough time to unpack and get Christmased up.

And it will reflect in your personality.
Don’t listen to them. What’s important is what you think about yourself. 🙂
Why are people confused about your gender?
I knew you’re a guy.
Because I looked like a girl until I was 12 and the whole “gay” factor didn’t really help that. I don’t know why people thought that online though, lol.
Got it willabe! Thanks so much. I will start including it in my blog posts, not that my posts make the Nobel Prize for Literature. Ha-ha. Doink!
you’ll want to click on the copyscape image and copy the code into a text box
I read your choco drink recipe. Looks like it’s simple enough. Will surely try it.
Hey, your copyscape banner is neat. How do I get one for my blog?
I am so, so , sorry! I just assumed by the name. I apologize profusely! I do like your blog though. 🙂
It’s totally fine. I’ve been called a girl since birth. Well actually the word changed to gay once I hit puberty. Which I am but it was still annoying that people had to ask and ridicule and all that stuff. Anyway no harm no foul. And thanks for the positive review 🙂
