Some Advise for a "stranger"

The one thing I think I can do well is help. I love to help: anyone or anything I can. And my favorite subject of help, surprisingly, is helping girls with guy trouble. I don't know what it is about it but it makes me feel... accomplished and useful like tonight, for example...
"Unfortunately, there's always going to be some guy being an ass. But you already knew that. On top of that, you have to take into consideration the fact the ALL guys are asses. (Again, you already knew that). Sadly, what you didn't know is, No, there isn't a Prince Charming: that one guy that will treat you like a princess and never hurt you. But that's just the hard truth. I'm not saying this to turn you off completely towards guys, I'm just saying this to say it. You NEED to know that with every complement comes another tear. It might not happen as simply as that, but eventually, that happens. Now, then next complicated part about guys is that there are actually guys that love to see you smile or who's heart melts every time you laugh. Actually, every guy has that specific trait but some hide it better then others. You just need to be patient and find that one guy who's balance of stupid quirks and cute qualities fits you. That will be the keeper that you dream about at night and think about all day. But I digress, getting back to your initial question: Yes, in a perfect world with minimal variables, the guy is supposed to like you for you. But right now in this setting under these circumstances, it's all up to chance."

The Inevitable

I say I only blog when I'm inspired but this... this feeling I'm enduring right now is so off putting that I feel compelled to share it. Yes, I'm talking about love. As a "blogger" it was only natural that I eventually decide to bring up this touchy subject.
          Love has all different shapes and parts that make it the complex yet simple concept that many claim to feel. Whether it's on the big screen in that romantic movie that makes your heart melt or in the halls in between classes, love is love and no one can tell you different.

          Now, the reason I've chosen to bring up love is something happened to me fairly recently. I'm not sure what that something is but if I had to guess, I think it's love. I think I've experienced love before and for different people but this time, it's different. I have felt love for her before and she loved me back. For some reason, those past flames of emotions have slowly simmered down and we went our separate ways. But deep in my heart, I can feel the rekindling of those emotions for this special girl. I thought, only for a moment, that she too felt the same thing I felt, but that idea was quickly rolled up and tossed aside.
         Tonight was the night of SHS's Halloween dance and as you know, Halloween is that special time of year when girls feel compelled to dress in a manner that they wouldn't usually. If you really want to know the truth, well it's right here. (ps. Jenna Marbles is a genius! And her wisdom far surpasses that of any other youtuber I've seen so far. Watch out, if you don't know Jenna Marbles, she is known for her wisdom... and her vulgarity) But at this dance, I really really really wanted to dance with this girl and earlier in school, she promised me a dance. So I was dancing, and dancing and dancing and just waiting for a slow song and one never came. And just as I start to draw disappointment, the DJ announces that this final song will be a Don't Stop Believing by Journey. Although it's not a slow song per se, but it would have to do. I started approaching her and with every step my heart pounded harder and harder. I was about 3 steps about when HE came in. I'm not going to blame him for everything but if it weren't for him, I'd be going to sleep with the biggest smile on my face. As the lights came on, I tried my hardest to walk away with a false smile on my face and my pride intact. He had won this round, just like the last, and the one before. But I'm not going to let this minor drawback keep me down. Now I'm even more determined to get her to notice what was right in front of her for the last 3 years.
           I hope this stands as a motivational story and helps you build up the courage to tell that special someone 'I love you' or 'I will always love you'. Even if they don't feel the same way, you get to rest your weary heart and focus your stirred mind and realize that there is someone out there who loves you.

Random Thoughts used to Change Lives

I don't want to say it but I think it's boiled down to the point where I need to let it be known. Now try not to judge me but I like hearing about others' misfourtine. Before you jump to conclusions, I like hearing because it usually helps the troubled soul. Throughout my many years as a listener, I've learned that listening is only half the battle. Will Smith in 'Hitch' says it best. "Listen and respond."
Now, just for my personal amusement, I've gathered some things I've said to anyone who cared to listen to me.

"The only way to make thigs better is to keep on living. No matter the difficulties you face or the demons fight, the only way to win is to prove that you WILL survive, alright?"

"If you have any future problems (which is inevitable), I wish you good luck on them. If they start to get out of control, I'll gladly try my hardest to help you make a smart and well thought out decision. I care about you and hate to see you hurt like this. Please try to feel as happy as you can, even if it only lasts a few seconds. And don't fall asleep mad at the world, you have all day tomorrow to be pissed off."

There's probably a lot more but seeing as it's late and I have a competency to do, I really need to shift my attention. There will be more of these little croutons of wisdom in the future but who knows when? It's really up to my friends and when they really need me :)

I Think So...

I think it's funny how age and memory go hand in hand. The older you get, the more memories you gather. Those memories could be as obscure as what your home phone number was as a child or as life changing as the moment your son or daughter is born. The unfourtinate thing is that as your age increases past a certain point, your mentally and memory start to deteriorate. The reason I'm bringing this up is because I've noticed my parents have a hard time remembering a bunch of things. When I asked my mom to cut my hair, (I tried and failed doing it myself) she said the same thing she said last time. I'm not sure if this is because she's incapable of creating new small-talk material or she's simply getting older and forgetting she says it. My dad is worse, he gets mad over things he never said. This also could be the fact that he slowly approaching his 50's, but as I actually think about it now, it could be my memory starting to fade away... Wait, what was I talking about again?
