I find that I think a lot during the middle of the night...

Randomly clicking through Youtube, as I often do, I came across this one video of a contemporary duet dance to "Konstantine" by SoCo. I was reading through the guys info section and he said "settling is so depressing". I don't know why, it may be because of my buff for quotes in general, but that quote made me think about how humankind is just so content to settle. Don't settle, discover. Travel, find the world! There are so many things that people don't do because they feel the need to settle. Even as a kid, my parents didn't focus on my sister and I having nice toys, clothes, or cars. Their sole purpose was to have us see the world and know it so we traveled so much. We weren't confined to our house and the community around us, we branched out of our shells.

Don't just waste your days alone on your couch. Go and find the means to explore! Because one day you'll regret it.

Honestly, why do people mock me?

I have been called crazy, insane,obsessed, and, yes, weird. But what for? My Twilight fanaticism isn't at all a waste of time. Just look at how many people I've met, how many places I've gone, all the things I've done! The list is far longer than most can vouch for. I mean, how many people can say they have gone on a road trip with their best friends up the west coast? Or camp out all night on the street or been on television and featured in articles(mind you it was only like two and it was mentioned as more of a group).

I love the things I do and I don't regret any of it. I love what I love and, sure, I'm a nerd or whatever you want to call me but I'm proud of it and I have memories to last me a lifetime because of it. It's all a part of being young and living your life. Stop mocking me for doing what I love to do and go out and do something with yourself besides sitting on the couch watching other people do it.

New Layout...

mossmonster@dslextreme.com (Twilight Girl) — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 09:54:00 +0000

So I was looking for something pretty and that could resemble my style somewhat and I just happened upon a layout that is themed Edgar Degas! Degas is my favorite painter ever and I just love his ballerina themes. I remember walking into the Somerset House and seeing his real life paintings and swooning. I just think they are beautiful and lovely.

Lady with a parasol happens to be my favorite...

The Future

While time lasts there will always be a future, and that future will hold both good and evil, since the world is made to that mingled pattern.

FINALS... Part Deux

mossmonster@dslextreme.com (Twilight Girl) — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 16:24:00 +0000

Oh blessed finals... the point at which you realize you are completely screwed. Or at least I feel that way. I figure that no matter how much I study I'll probably still fail. I guess you could say I'm just setting myself up for destruction by acting negatively but honay, I'm a realist and that's life.

So here's to a week of sweat, blood, and tears...

May my dreams rest in peace.

So I've been thinking... yeah, I know... Anyway... Ever since I was little I've wanted to be a doctor. I've always been about the blood and guts and what not but I've never considered any other profession. I guess when I came to college I was thinking that I would be one of those people who knew what they were going to be. But now, I've already changed my major once, and I'm really considering if this is what is right for me. I guess I also feel pressured to be "the doctor" because for so long that's what people have seen me as even though I wasn't even on that path yet. I feel as though if I don't become what they are expecting me to be I'll just disappoint them.

I mean, what if I decided I wanted to be a journalist. I love to write and the other day someone told me they could picture me in New York working for some magazine. I've never thought about it until now, but I could also see myself doing it.

I have all these dreams and I really want to achieve them. I want to travel. I want to live in London, New York, and LA for a couple years each. I have this idea of living in England and meeting my husband there... yeah, a little intense. But then I started to think about the dynamics of achieving all of these things and when you are on your way to becoming a doctor, it consumes so much of your life. And plus, I want to have a family. Granted, I don't want to have kids until I'm about 30, but still that's only 11 years from now. That's not that far away.

I guess I shouldn't be looking so much into this considering I'm still only a freshman in college but it's never too early to plan and reconsider your life... right?

Finals...

mossmonster@dslextreme.com (Twilight Girl) — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 09:08:00 +0000

*shutters* Just the sound of it makes me cringe.

As you may have guessed, finals are next week and I have now just realized how much I did not pay attention in class. Honestly?! Was I counting the specks on the wall when my professor was explaining wave particle duality? Oh my goodness. My life this week has been consisting of Fritos, Christmas cookies, and Monsters. Freshman 15 is not gained throughout the year... it is gained during finals week; five pounds for every quarter. Makes sense...

So not only is my brain going to be fried after the 12th... oh no, I will have gotten fatter in the process.

I just wish that it could be Friday already so I can go shopping and can work off the stress (and hopefully any additional calories).

All I have to say is this better pay off in the end.

I hate life.
