Can't Wait for Summer

So bad. I want summer to be here now. I want to be able to go to the beach everyday of my life. That would be amazing.

I just watched this movie on IFC called Next Stop to Wonderland (or atleast I think that's what it's called). There was this really good point in it about a daily ritual of marveling at the beauty of one thing everyday. This act of just thinking and, in a way meditating, in order to gain inspiration for life... very IFC-ish kind of movie.

Another weird off topic thing. I had a dream that in my right eye, these weird yellowish gouey things were growing on it. So I went to the bathroom, and began washing them and taking them out of my eye. Then my eye became all cloudy and grey/blue. It was as if I was going blind in my right eye. Such a weird feeling.

This break hasn't been really relaxing. I still have soo many things to do and worry about. Get a resume done, finish an assessment, read for humanities, prepare for the Ring of Fire event, begin to memorize my lines, finish the scholarship application....lotsa work.

Ugh..I don't want to think about it.

New Face
This is the new face of my blog. Nothing has really changed, but I figured since my e-mail hasn't changed since 6th grade, then something should.

I'm excited hearing about all these seniors getting into "college acceptance/rejection mode". It's like reliving it again. It mattered so much at the time, but once the decision had been made, all we could do was have faith that no matter where we were, we'd do our best and experience all that we could. For most of us, I think this has held true. Don't stress too much about where you are going, because all in all, it's what you make of it.

I really need to start sleeping at a normal time. Too much time staying up has definitely affected my health.

I hope the weather gets better. It's shrimp bread time tomorrow!!! GENIUS!

Sometimes the more stressed you are, the more you realize there's no reason to be stressed.

I hope I never become one of those people guided by their clocks and schedules. Worried about the hours ticking away or the days crossed off of their calendars. Gone...yeah I know. But I mean why worry about something that's gone.

You know what? I don't ever say this, but I love hearing people talk about their beliefs. Just listening in on the different kinds of perspectives of faith or even lack of faith, and how it can fulfill a person so much. Some may gain this fulfillment in different ways. Listening and understanding these things help me realize even even moreso what I really believe. They may be different, but I don't think that everyone should think like me.

And the whole "wasting your life in conflict" is so true. People need to take a chill pill and not hate so much. Hate and anger eat away at your heart, when you really don't deserve it. Take care of your heart.
