My goodness. I’m still struggling to get used to waking up at 6:15 instead of 9:00am. Oyyyy. :dead:
I figured out how those “sore throat” remedies, like Sucrets, work. They numb the area that’s sore, so you don’t feel as much pain. It doesn’t fix your soreness, it just masks it.
TV is awesome. What’s so strange that sometimes, I’ll watch a show that’ll have some sort of sad, slow ending and for the rest of the night, I’ll feel a bit sad and depressed. :sayblah: Does anybody else get that too? Lol.
A few more movie reviews to add. I haven’t been watching as many because I’ve been wrapped up with watching the old episodes of “The O.C.” :biggrin:

:saysigh: I don’t know where to begin. I feel as if I have no right to complain about anything, but I can’t help it. No matter where I go, I’m always going to be tied down by somebody. I’m always going to feel obligated to someone. I shouldn’t have to, and I try not to, but deep down, I know that there’s always going to be someone I feel I need to please.
I think I need a break from life. Then again, my head and my heart are so messed up right now; I don’t know what it is I truly want or need.

I miss Cal. Going back for my workshop on Tuesday made me realize how much I love it there. I stood on the balcony of one of the halls and saw beauty right before my eyes. The sad part is that no matter what can happen in that city (mugging, homelessness, etc), I’ll still love it. There’s just something about that city. I know the reason I love it so much is not because I’m away from my parents; it’s because I love the anonymity, life, and beauty in it.
Thanks much to Patrici Flores. Without her, this layout wouldn’t be as beautiful as it is. ^_^ :sayyay:
School begins on Monday. There’s some tension at home because my brother and I need rides to school, but it’s complicated because my parents need to go to work. I suggested to take the bus, but I’d have to wake up around 6, get on at 6:30, just to get there in time by 7:30. I dunno. Hopefully I’ll find someone to carpool with.
One of life’s greatest pleasures (stemming from the previous post) is just to have someone say something genuinely nice about you. Hearing that from your family or significant other doesn’t cut it; you know that they love and appreciate you anyway. But the best feeling is to hear it from someone you don’t expect. Thank you to Sien, Joshua, and Julie for making me feel just a bit more special this summer. (That’s not to neglect the rest of my loved ones; I already know you all love me! :tongue: )
So advice to my readers: if you really care for someone, just let him/her know. You never know when you can make someone’s day by expressing your feelings. Don’t expect anything in return, of course.
So I was reading a friend’s blog and she was tagged to write down 10 of life’s simplest pleasures. I think I’m just going to list mine as they pop into my head. As for tagging, I tag whoever reads this post. :tongue: Try to keep yours different from mine or anyone else’s that you read.
Life’s Simplest Pleasures
1. Eating just the marshmallows in the Lucky Charms cereal
2. Drinking a cup of hot chocolate & cinnamon
3. Waking up in the morning & know you’re not late for something
4. Walking into a hot shower
5. To help someone and have them thank you, even if you didn’t do much
6. Listening to a good song & singing it at the top of your lungs
7. Watching your favorite TV show from the beginning
8. Eating a good bowl of pho
9. Swimming laps & thinking of nothing else but swimming
10. Turning on the TV to find your favorite movie’s on.

Why is so hard for me to do what’s right? Or what people ask me to do? I have a hard time, especially with my parents. They tell me to do one thing and I immediately want to the other. Maybe I still have my teenage genes in me; after all, my age is still in the teens. Roar. One month & one year until I’m out. :tongue:
But back to the point… I just can’t seem to focus on what I need to do; I always feel as if I need to be doing something else. Maybe it’s procrastination, maybe it’s not. What do you think? Do any of y’all have the same problem? If so, how do you deal with it?

Here’s my thing on buying music: I don’t want to buy music downloads. I figure, if I’m going to download an album, I’d rather pay the same price (approx) and get the tangible thing, ya know? That way, if my computer crashes or something, I’ve still the original. So if I ever plan to buy music, I want the actual album, not downloaded songs.

As mentioned before, I can’t wait to start school. No, please don’t take this as excitement. Take this as a way to cure my boredom. :dead: Bah.
Life-wise, everything’s okay I suppose. Friends come and go, so I’m not surprised when I lose touch with some, but hey, what can you do? You can only do so much until you realize that your friend just doesn’t have time for you anymore. All you can do is cherish what you had and remember the good times.
