My head hurts just from writing that. I apologize.
Anyway, I somehow figured out how to log into my blog on this laptop. Isn't that exciting! I wasn't able to before, which really annoyed me. You probably don't care.
I wrote a corny song/poem the other night. I started out writing it for one person, then by the end I decided it pretty much describes everyone in my life who makes me happy or has made me happy at least one time. If you're reading this, then you definitely make me happy.
So here's to you, bringers of joy.
You're the sweet red cherry right on top
You're the laughing gas before the shot
You're the finish line at the end of the race
You're the gold medal when I win first place
You're the quiet oasis in the middle of the desert
You're the spongebob bandaid for when I get hurt
You're the ice cold water when I'm dying of thirst
You're the bright blue balloon that will never burst
You're the calm before the inevitable storm
You're the radiant sun that keeps all of me warm
You're the neverending song running through my head
You're the brand of butter that's easy to spread
You're the movie I love to watch over and over
You're harder to find than a 4-leaf clover
You're the spot of color in the midst of all the gray
You're the bold, brave hero that saves the day
Yet all these corny metaphors still aren't enough
Words can't express how much you are loved.

"It's Nonsensical, Yes it Is"
Ah, Black Friday. The day where thousands of Americans who are most likely already in debt spend tons of money on stuff they do not need, just because it's on sale. Sale means nothing, because you're just gonna buy more stuff, right? Right. Don't kid yourself.
This year I choose not to go shopping. My mom might go, and I might go with her, just so I don't lay around the house like a lazy person [I need to walk off all that food from yesterday anyway]. Now, you know, I, being a girl, have the natural instinct to WANT to shop. And to be perfectly honest, I do! But you just have to fight. You know how it's our nature to sin, too? I have to fight that also. I'm sorry I have to do this, but here's an example from Twilight: the vampires obviously are predators. They are "programmed" to kill humans, right? Well the Cullens fight that instinct. That's what we should do.
It also amazes me how people have such a hard time waking up at 6 for school or church, but they have no problem at all waking up at 4 to shop. Bah. I feel like the Grinch.
Now I'm not saying "DON'T SHOP, YOU HEATHEN!" No, no, no. I'm saying that should go shopping, because if you need something, it's most likely on sale today. but before you put each item in your cart, ask yourself, "do I really, REALLY need this?" You'll be surprised at what you put back.
Alright. have a nice day.
You've been having trouble staying asleep
You been waking up at 4:12
You roll the voices over in your head
Then you try to put them neatly on the shelf
You watch the sun rise
You saw the darkness had no choice before the dawn
With your own eyes
And then you broke out laughing from a yawn
You said,
"I'm so sorry I've been so down.
I started doubting things could ever turn around.
And I began to believe that all we are is material.
It's nonsensical."
So you walk outside and everything's new
You're looking at the world with new eyes.
As if you'd never seen a sky before that's blue
As if you've never seen the sky in your whole life
And then the phone rings
As it turns out you're already late
And now you're wondering
Was peace just a temporary state?
You're waiting tables and parking cars
You've been selling cell phones at the shopping mall
And you began to believe that all you are is material
It's nonsensical
I still can't believe that all we are
And that all of are dreams are nothing more than material
Souls aren't built of stone,
Sticks and bones

"wait so who is this justin bieber chick?"
Bahahahaha. That's what Mr. Andy Barron tweeted yesterday. It made. my. day. HAHA. Really, that's what I was asking at the end of the summer when I got back to school and I heard his name every couple of minutes.
Apparently he's this singer who's like 15 who sounds like he's 11 or 12? Yeah. I guess so. And a large percentage of girls from age 11 probably to 16 are OBSESSED with him. I think the Jonas fangirls have moved on to the Bieber. I feel kinda bad for the Jonas Brothers. They've died down just like every disney music prodigy has. How sad.
Anyway, I saw a commercial with the Justin kid in it, and I'm guessing it was snippets of his music videos, and he was all close and junk to these two different girls. And I was like---HOW could you watch this guy be all cozied up with these girls on tv and still be in "LOVE" with him?!
It just doesn't make sense to me! How can people be married to actors/actresses? Seeing them on tv and in movies kissing [and more...] other people? I just don't get it.

Crazy.
DUDE. Happiness. I am HAPPY. I haven't been this happy in a long while. Since August, maybe. Switchfoot can't fill all the holes, but they filled one with the upcoming show. Recently another hole was filled. This is GREAT. I'm sorry for being vague. But yeah. I'm a smiley person as of late. There's only a couple more holes left, but that's okay. I don't think God would mind filling a few more than He already has. :).
Tomorrow I am seeing New Moon. Now I'm not one of those freakishly obsessive people. I am a fan, not a askjhfiaoehtIHNIAOISUBUUusudjiaoOMG superfan. Ok? Ok. I've only seen Twilight one time. Other people? like 80. Not healthy. Depending upon the quality of New Moon, I may or may not watch it again. That's enough Twilight talk for one night.
Awwwlright. I'm done. I don't have the attention span to write a very long post, as I have exhibited in past posts. I've posted a bunch lately, though. Have you read them? No. You're not even reading now, are you? Or ARE you? O_o? Or am I typing to no one? Myself. Yes? Hi self. Oh, hello. I think I'm going insane! Oh, are you now? Yes. Well then I think maybe you should stop now. Good idea, self.
*cough*
bye...

Be There in the Morning
Heh. I am listening to Michael Jackson's "Got to be There" from when he was 11. How precious.
Today went by fast. I'm glad it did. It had the potential to be a bad day, but I didn't let it. I'm slowly learning that--in the words of Hannah Montana--"life's what you make it." It really is. You can be an optimist or a pessimist. I choose optimism. I've only recently discovered this power over my life, but I'm learning. And I'm excited about it! So between me and God, I think we'll make this life pretty awesome. I'm hoping.
I feel like playing guitar right about now. I'll go do that now. Bye!

I'll Open all the Windows
Hello, folks.
I think I was right about this week. I hope so. Because yesterday was a pretty good day also. I don't have alot to type today. Plus I don't have alot of time either. ok bye.

Non-Fail Week
Yesterday marked the beginning of non-fail week. It was a pretty awesome day. So hopefully this week will indeed be a non-fail one like I predicted. I'll keep you posted.
The Scene and Herd - Relient K
So here it is it's just me
A different drummer but the same old beat
It seems like everything is going to be just fine
Cause I'm having a good time
As long as I'm staying true to myself
Then out isn't something I can sell
And I can sleep at night without your help it's fine
Cause I'm having a good time
The scene and herd
Seem to make it all just a little bit worse
And I don't wanna go down that road
Oh no no no
The scene and herd
I'll be the first to tell you I'm worse
But I don't wanna go
Down that road
Oh no
And odds are that you probably
Magically got this song for free
And I'm not sure if it bothers me it seems fine
Cause I'm having a good time
And if the path I take to validate
Everything I do means everything I create
Is knocking on the door of everything I hate I'll decline
Cause I'm having a good time
Well everyone's got something on their mind
And this is my thought at the present time
I say what I want might not be what you want to hear
Oh
The scene and herd
Block out the sun like a flock of birds
And I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
