2009, Where have you gone?

I'm going to welcome this new year with a "Hurrah!" No fetal position for me.

Time is an illusion, therefore this change in number shall mean nothing to me. There will just a change in the date I write at the top of my homework. __/__/10. 2010, you don't scare me.

It's another year of my life lived accordingly.

2009, I shall miss you. My memoirs of you shall last me forever, I hope. So many wonderful moments and times have been spent in your year. I was gonna start listing things that happened this year but you know them all, and I know them.. : )

I have my blogger to remember events in my life, and my old journal that I'm looking at now. I'm checking to see what I was thinking a whole year ago...

"Vacation's going by too fast & before I know if I'll be stuck in a classroom with a bunch of crazies!-- Well, mostly crazies. So, I've been pretty much doing nothing this break. Christmas was fun & now we're constantly playing the Wii. I don't really feel like writing, I'm actually really tired & need sleep.(taking out this portion) I'm on the search for a new journal that will easily be undetected... I knid of want to start at the beginning of 2009, that's probably not going to happen, but whatever. I'm going to Kayla's New Yeras Eve get-together with Krust. Can't... .Write... More.... Must.. Sleep... Eh"

You know, I'm kind of a jerk. I reread this handwritten scribble and realize that I have changed in a year. For the better. Not changed, changed, but just my way about thinking. I'm a little more optimistic now. I've learned to tell myself not to change around people, I mean, it's not like I turn into a completely different person, but sometimes I act differently around friends, family, and classmates. I think everyone does, but I'm trying not to. I don't have anything to hide.

I think I've found my purpose in life (for now). It's to be the comic relief, even if it does get annoying at times.

In this next year I hope to bring many smiles and laughs, to others and me.

I still have a whole day of 2009 left. Maybe I'll get around to blogging once more, but if not. Happy New Years, Flouts of the Inane. I promise to visit you more next year.

GroovyBandGeek wishing everyone a happy new year. Make it count.

wEiRd IdEa I hAd ToDaY...

This morning was a morning like no other--Okay, I've gotten right out of bed spot on at 7 before but not in awhile--, but yeah, I just jumped out of bed and I thought "Hello world and all who inhabit it!" I dunno where I got that quote from, but I just say it sometimes in my head. I like to think I thought of it myself, but it'll probably turn out I got it from somewhere...

Anyways, all day I've been very goofy and it was during photography that I said "Today sounds like a good day to blog..." I didn't say it aloud but I thought it. The more the day pasted the more I told myself, I'm really going to blog tonight, even it's about me talking about wanting to blog today.

I'm sure I'll blog again before the year ends, just to tell it how wonderful it was. 2009, spectacular.

Alrighty, I'll tell you the idea I had today. It all started after my mother picked me up from school, I got out with 20 minutes of school to go, due to Casey's Christmas Program. I'm just pumped! You know why?! My mother made me my favorite! Chicken Noodle Soup... So, I'm just hovering about the pot, watching my mom put dumpling after dumpling in it, and I'm like "Whoa..." and trying not to drool into the soup. Finally the noodles noodled and the dumplings... well, you don't wanna know what they did. --- okay, okay still in a weird mood.

Yeah, the soup was done and my mom went to pick up the ladle and both of us at the same time said "ladelladelladelladel" just super weird-like and sounding the same. We both stopped at the same time and looked at each other and kind of shrugged. It was way funnier than it sounds. The soup was awesome! The usual and as I slurped the last bits of my first bowl something occured to me, the bottom of the bowl was just like tea leaves! You know, like the tea leaves reading your future thing? So I thought, "Why can't they do that with chicken noodle soup?!"





This skill of reading chicken noodle soup--dictionary.com I need you-- smidgens isn't taught though. It's pretty much made up. So I just made up my own fortune, the first bowl said, "Your life is in order (So, you should eat another bowl of soup)," Because the onions were lined up, and my life is awesome. The second bowl says, "Don't take your friends and family for granted (Don't eat anymore or you'll throw up)," because it has this bird on it (which is me) and all this crap surrounding it, and I'm always surrounded my friends or family. Maybe I shouldn't see it as crap and like the clutteredness.

Basically, anytime you eat some chicken noodle soup hand the bowl to me and I'll read your fortune!

Thank you friends, the soup says not to take you for granted so I won't.

I Got The Dynamo Of Volition

You open your eyes every morning not knowing what to expect, not knowing that you don't know. You don't know what you're going to learn about. Sometimes even I don't believe it, but right now, I can say I think it's true we learn something everyday. Even if it doesn't come in handy until a few years, weeks, or days to come.

I was just sitting here thinking, getting myself more and more annoyed. Then, I just asked myself, "Who's getting your nickers in a twist?"

"I dunno, I feel like being a crab," I replied.

"Yeah, how's that working for you?"

"Eh, I'm kind of being a jerk to everyone. It isn't very nice. It's the hat's fault, it wouldn't look good and knitting is horrible!" You see, I was attempting to knit before, and it didn't work out too swell.

"Really? So, the hat, it's just making you be a jerk..." My other, more reasonable self, asked sarcastically. I glared and thought. The thinking didn't last long, it didn't need to.

Monk. An episode I'd seen over a month ago randomly started playing in my head. Randy Disher, my favorite character in the world said something inspiring. Lt. Disher, he's not the most brilliant person, he's used as the comic relief in the show, so I guess I can relate to him. I love his comical remarks, so the serious caught me off guard. Maybe that was why it took so long to sink in. He said, "Happiness is a choice."

That is my new motto, no matter what situation life brings you it's your choice to make the best of it. Why go through it sad or angry? When it can be replaced with happy. I think I've known it the whole time, I just needed reminding. Basically, you can be sad or angry, but only of your own volition.
