Reflections...

Do you ever look at your life and wonder how you got here? Yeah, okay, so I don’t by any means mean to be so melodramatic, but I sometimes just wonder when we all became grown ups, you know? And really this is probably all just stemming from this script that I am writing at the moment. ;)

Life is a funny thing. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a fabulous fantastic thing, but it’s also quite amusing ;) . I have done some amazing things, I’ve met some amazing people, but currently I sort of feel like I’m waiting in the wings for my next great adventure to start… although I am trying to keep myself occupied, but you know. Actually do you know what I mean? I really hope so… otherwise I might be in trouble ;) .

Well, like I heard from someone else, “Life is like a meter on a taxi – it keeps rolling even if you feel like you’re standing still.” So let’s all try and make each day count, right? Right.

Wow I really need to stop listening to this nostalgic music when I write these posts, lol ;) . I guess this is just me inner emo trying to break out… okay so no, actually I really don’t fully understand what emo is, so let’s leave that one off, hehe ;) .

Cheers!

The Pink Shirt

I'm wearing a horrible pink shirt right now. It's one of those shirts that I bought years ago thinking it was so fabulous, and yet never really wore it. So insert now, where I am now trying to get some use out of it. It's not working too well. I know I should just throw it out, and yet I can't.

Although not to go too deep into this, but that probably stems for my love for the past. There are three different kinds of people, those who live in the past, those who live in the future, and those lucky enough to live in the now (the moment). Sometime I have reached those euphoric moments of living in the moment, but usually I drift back into the past. Maybe it's a comfort thing? Who knows.

But, this post is not about myself, it is about the gawd awful pink shirt that I am now sporting. We all have one - well maybe not a pink one, but you know what I mean ;). I wonder if I will make it through the day wearing this thing? I mean do I even dare to go outside in it?

Yeah, I think I'll change.

I'm taking a moment to talk about love...

Yes, that's right, I am taking a brief moment to talk about something love related. Having talked with a few friends recently who are having this problem, and I myself have had this problem before, I thought I would bring it up here and see who here has had a familiar experience.

Yes, that's right, the whole liking someone who doesn't like you back, and yet having those who like you and yet you do not like them back. Why does this always seem to happen time and time again? It definitely is the story of my life - which is why single life is the life for me ;).

Are we sending out the wrong signals to those we think are just friends? Maybe it is because we are just friends that we are much more comfortable around these people who in turn like us for more? I do know that I tend to get a little flustered around people I really like, so in turn I suppose they do not really see the real me? But then again, after a few meetings this will go away, so... I really do not have an answer. All I know is that it has been happening for years to almost everyone, and will probably continue to do so.

And that whole "let's just be friends" conversation is really not a fun thing to do. Yeah, we all know how that is ;). Well, this is why I for one will just try and be friends only with everyone... but if any of you have any thoughts on the whole the people you like don't like you back, and the one's who do you don't really like in that way, please do share them! :)

Leaving On A Jet Plane.....

Well my friends, today I venture from the comforts of my home to another fun, adventure filled experience. I love traveling, it is one of my most favorite things to do. I will update when I can.

I just partook in British Airways Online Check -In...where, have any of you done that? It took me like a billion times to actually sign in! I think the site was down or something. Oh well, I am all checked in now =). The in flight movies are not nearly as exciting as Virgin (whom I mostly prefer to fly [they give free ice cream!!] :D). I was actually going to fly Virgin again, but their ticket prices were way higher then BA's fabulous deal. Oh well, just another way to broaden my flight experience. ;)

And with this I shall be off. I have lost my other flash card which I would like to find, and I should really finish my packing.

A bientot everyone! I am off to go live the life less traveled! ;)

Life...Or Something Like It.

It's funny how when we are all younger, life seems so clear. The path we want in life is laid out right before us.

However, it seems like the older and older we get that life we always wanted seems to blur. I suppose this is primarily due to our responsibilities in life.

But it all seems so sad. And actually unavoidable, except we all seem to do anything but avoid it.

I guess all we can really do is keep trying to reach our goals and dreams in this life, and if we end up somewhere else along the way, hopefully we'll keep an open mind, and just enjoy it.

This was my nostalgic post for the month ;).

Cheers! =)

Pirates Still Live!

I love that there are still pirates...

I was watching the news (yes, I know, how very 'adult of me') ;), and I just noticed a story of pirates being quite a problem off the coast of Africa.

Wow.

I was a little sad to see that they didn't have eye patches, skull flags, and parrots on their shoulders though...oh, I'm sorry, it's not the 1700's anymore?? =)

Happy sailing everyone! ;)

He's Just Not That Into You.... So....

Since when was being single the new plague??!

So I had lunch with a friend the other day, and she brought up an interesting point. She said she felt like she had failed because she herself was still single in her late twenties.

I mean really, since when was single a bad thing??

I then began to wonder if others too had this thought. I suppose it doesn't help that with every film and television show these days, we have the underlined tone that we must get married, the sooner the better, or we will end up alone. They all state that people over the age of 30 are doomed to spend a lifetime alone. Sounds pretty grim...doesn't it?

Uh....okay, so instead of focusing on the negative, look at the bright side... you will have the freedom to do anything you want, you have that optimism, that around any corner you could meet someone truly great, and I could go on. It's a great time to spend your life with your friends too.

Instead of treating this as horrible circumstances, one should use this time as a great advantage to truly get to know yourself.

I have been single for years, and I love every minute of it. But, then again, I'm one of these people who will enjoy whatever state they find themselves... there is good things in ever situation life presents us. =)

Enjoy Life!

No truer words could ever be spoken. Life is too short to wait around, we need to get out there and start living life now! =)
