it makes no sense.

Why is it that we have funerals when someone dies? I know it's to honor the persons life and all their accomplishments. But why don't they have funerals for those living? Call me crazy, but whats said at a funeral could stick with someone forever. No one goes up there and says he was a horrible man. No. He was a good man, and why is it that we say all these meaningful and memorable thoughts when they can not hear it? I love everyone I know because everyone has given me a gift. But do they know that? well if you are reading this, now you do. But I'm not going to wait for someone as great as you to tell you how I feel. I want you to hear it now, so you can end with a smile on your face. I want to tell you know while you can still hear all the great things you are.

truth and dare.

Today was a beautiful day. The weather was nice. The sun was out, but in everyone still was the fear of everything. I know this blog isn't the happiest one you've read, but I do not need to write about happiness. I need to write about the truth and sometimes believing the truth is one of the hardest things to do. Half the time, you never really even want to believe it either. But this one you need to and, I hope, you want to believe. You can make someone's day. You can make someone's year. You can change someones life. It sounds so cheesy, but it's so true. The smallest things for everyone can make a huge difference. Saying hi in the hallway, just smiling. Of course, I'm talking about my view on things. Maybe for you, you don't care for a smile. You don't care for anyone just saying hi. But I know, in the inside, you do care. And it would make you happier. Even by a little bit. The same goes for you towards people. Knowing it could make their day. Why wouldn't you? It's these simple actions that people lack to give out. And it's these simple actions that mean the most. I dare you, everyday, to smile and say a simple hello to someone you normally wouldn't. Because no matter what other battle they are fighting, it would make their life better one step at a time.

Truth or Dare?
Truth: You have the power to make someone's life that much better. You have the power to make someone happy. You have the power to give them confidence. You have the power to change their life.
Dare: Use that power.

this is your life.

yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
yesterday is a promise that you've broken
don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
this is your life and today is all you've got now
yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
don't close your eyes
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be

This is Your Life, Switchfoot

Overrated.

Broad ripple Vintage, it not as amazing as I thought it was going to be. Actually, I did find a couple of cute things but nothing worth traveling miles for. But having 30 minutes of doing nothing gave me time to think about Lexi Hathaway's status. I know it sound creepy, but she's an amazing girl with the best status. I love you Lexi. Anyways, here was her status.

If we discovered that we had only 5 minutes left to say what we wanted to say, every telephone booth would be occupied by people calling other people to stammer that they loved them.

And I guess this sounds stupid, but I really believe in this. People keep to themselves how they really feel towards people. When you really think about it, it's really strange why too. Why do you love someone but won't even come close to telling them? It's the fear of rejection, or not not receiving the love in return. I'm guilty. You're guilty. Everyone's guilty. And the truth is, is that, it's very sad. Love is a gift, and people hide it like it's a sin.

don't even read this.

I'm never the one good on actually writing good introduction since there's never any words to really describe or "introduce" what I'm about to say. So basically, I just say it. Today started off great, a crew meeting followed by an easy day in chemistry. But somehow some kid walks in and totally ruins my day. Actually, it's no one in particular. It's just knowing that no matter what you do, what you wear, the people that pass you in the hallway take one look and judge you. I guess I'm taking that a little far. I mean everyone judges people, and I guess in the end it doesn't matter. Like I said yesterday. Now I'm talking to 'you'. I don't know you very well, some might say not at all, but somehow and something pulls me to the conclusion you are so nice. That you would treat people the way people should be treated. Why do I think this? because that's what I want to see. I want you to be that perfect guy, I want you to stand up for the human rights. That's not you. Because my first impression of you wasn't even you, it's the character you played.

"Girls are taught a lot of stuff growing up. If a guy punches you he likes you. Never try to trim your own bangs and someday you will meet a wonderful guy and get your very own happy ending. Every movie we see, Every story we're told implores us to wait for it, the third act twist, the unexpected declaration of love, the exception to the rule. But sometimes we're so focused on finding our happy ending we don't learn how to read the signs. How to tell from the ones who want us and the ones who don't, the ones who will stay and the ones who will leave. And maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe... it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. Or maybe the happy ending is this, knowing after all the unreturned phone calls, broken-hearts, through the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment you never gave up hope.

funny the way it is

There's always the people that are in your life, that you know you don't need. But something inside you keeps you on them. There are people that say goodbye to you, because you aren't meant to be with them. Lately I've been thinking about those people. But leading off of that thought, I was thinking about life is general. And for the first post, why not go all out? Life is just a small word, with such a huge meaning. It's actually, in a way, scary. Everyone always wants time to just go by so this day will come, this year, this place, but doing absolutely nothing. People get caught up in the smallest things, and worry their lives away. People complain all the time about how someone doesn't like them, they aren't good enough for this, and all other things like that. Who cares if you are a crap of the football player? play football. Who cares if he gives you death stares? smile and say hi. Because the worst thing of all is living through your life always afraid about what tomorrow will bring, and just worry your life away.

You get what you give out, if you're a self conceited jerk, you'll find yourself a nice self conceited jerk to be right by your side. Actually, that wouldn't work, since both would just be too full of themselves to care about each other. Or maybe that's the reason it would work. If you're a slut, good for you. You could not respect yourself any less. (yeah, good job miley cyrus!!) That's something to be proud of. You judge others without having a actually conversation with them? that's something everyone wants. If you're too lazy and self absorbed to get to know them, why in the world would they want to get to know you? Exactly. Don't get all upset when people judge you, hey, it's their loss.
