The Blog Must Go On!

So, I've been trying to write a new post for quite some time now and all of my lame drafts have even more lame titles. In the spirit of blogging, I would now like to share all of these failed drafts with you.

 Break out the L-word
Lets all just stop and appreciate Wallace Wells for the perfect human he is. 
Back to Kanto (the basics)
There are some basic truths that I have come to live by. So if you care to take some advice from a fellow like myself, here they are.

When getting ready for the day, dress as though you will be:
   -meeting the most beautiful boy in the world
   -going on an awesome hike
   -judged based on your appearance

Movies. We watch them, They inspire us.

Here are important lessons I have learned from some of my favorite movies:

Happiness and the Pursuit of Other Things.

     Today, I am writing for the sake of writing.

so...that's how that went. some of those are really old...like a couple of years ago. But I felt like sharing that, so enjoy. or don't. whatevs.

also, I might finish some of these later on, I just feel like I need to write more. It's kind of fun:)

and, thank you Jess for naming this post for me. It was perfect.

Now that I'm twenty.

     I forgot to take off work for my birthday this year. I was just so caught up with moving and my new job and planning outings that the weeks just flew by and I ended up with a shift. But, that's okay because my co-workers brought me a cake and smashed it in my face. (gracias chicas)
     Another thing I forgot about is this blog. Mainly because when I write it kind of sucks. But I secretly like it, so here's one more blog:
     The year is almost to the half-way point and I thought I could revisit my goals and see how I'm doing.
      Make someone laugh everyday? This is my favorite goal. I think I'm doing pretty good with this one. Conversation in Spanish? If it involves Mcd's vocabulary, I pass. Perform guitar? this is never happening, sorry goal. Go to New York this summer? I'm too poor, but I did move out of Ephraim, so I'll count that for now. Wearing a speedo in public? If your lucky, this is going down in August. Read the Bible? naaaah. Audition for a show? Hopefully in the fall. I did go to improv club though! Choose my major? *pauses in terror of realization*. Find love? I'm not too concerned about this one. I'm starting to love myself, and that's what I really need first. Goal 10 was left blank. Let's hope we never find what is is. I can't handle another goal.
     I think it's time for some confessions...

  • Yesterday I realized that I always take way too many paper towels to dry my hands than I really need. I always feel guilty, but I keep doing it.
  • I read my horoscope everyday. It's not like I care if it's true. It just gives you something nice to think about.
  • When I walk home from work I religiously listen to Overture/All that Jazz. Like, every night.
  • Also in regards to walking to/from work, I avoid really awesome dancing songs because I get scared that I'll break out in dance. I couldn't handle the looks I would get from people. 


I think that's all I got. Somebody should tell me what to write about. Here's an awesome song. um, the end.

Afterthoughts of Reading

     I started reading again. Not that I stopped reading but, I found a book that is for my own enjoyment. Brave New World by: Aldous Huxley. I found it on a list, 101 books to read this summer instead of 50 shades of grey . I am 26 pages into the story. It's strange because there is no focus on any particular character yet. It is purely observation of events to this point. Nevertheless, I am excited to keep reading.
 
 When I close my book after a good read, The world seems to slow down. My walking pace is not so rushed. My thoughts are less scattered. Which is refreshing compared to the stressed, overworked, tech addicted feelings that I am usually experiencing.
   
That's it really. I just wanted to rant about my renewed love for books.

Resolutions for 2013

“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.” 
― Michelangelo Buonarroti

That quote got me to thinking that I need some goals now.  I have spent all of January trying to find the perfect way to phrase my goals so that they would be easy but satisfying. But that kind of defeats the purpose, so I'm going to get it out right now. Here goes my goals..



Goal 1: Make someone laugh everyday. I'll become a better comedian, and the world will be a happier place.

Goal 2:  Have a real conversation in Spanish with someone. And then when my friends get home from their missions, I can talk to them in Spanish.

Goal 3: Practice guitar until I get brave enough to perform at an open mic.

Goal 4: Go to New York in the summer. (and maybe never come back)

Goal 5: Wear a speedo to the pool.

Goal 6: Read the Bible.(even if I forget what I read every night)

Goal 7: Audition for a show.

Goal 8: Choose my major.

Goal 9: Find love.

Goal 10:  


well, there you have it.
