Decisions are hard to make. You never know what might happen. Then comes the grand old coulda-shoulda-woulda. I think people should just do what makes them happy, not what others expect them to do. If you’re happy with what you have going for yourself, why change a thing? On the other hand, if your life is pretty crappy, maybe it’s time for a change. Pack up, move to somewhere you’ve never been before. Being spontaneous is what keeps life interesting. If quitting your job and uprooting your life makes you happy, do it. If streaking naked through the park provides an incredible, much needed adrenaline rush, go for it. Life’s to short to worry about things that won’t matter ten years from now. It’s all about the things that make you laugh and having a good time!

Due to recent experiences, I’ve realized there are 3 types of people in the world. People who are genuinely good people, people who try to be good people, and terrible people who flat out suck at life. At the very moment I’m blogging this, I’m surrounded by all three types of these people. So, I must be with my dad’s family. They all mostly fall under the second category: they try, but they don’t succeed. Bitterness has overtaken most of their lives and I vow for that to never happen to me. I’m never going to have a reason to be. I’ll always be happy, because I’ll never be poor, I’ll never be divorced, and my kids will turn out perfectly. I’ll only live once, so I better have one perfect life. As long as I’m under 18, there’s nothing I can do. The best I can possibly do is get good grades and surround myself with positive influences. I will go to the best college, I will get the best husband, and I will succeed in life. Nothing is going to take me down.

So, it’s New Years Eve. People keep going on and on about how a new year is a new start. Well, that’s a total hunk of crap. There’s no reason you can’t resolve to be a new person in May, or why you can’t set a goal for yourself in September.

People just want an excuse to hope for things. New loves, new friends. But those things can be found all year long, if you even bother to really look. So, maybe my resolution is to make even more friends, or maybe to snag a cute boy. But I know I can do that at any time. I do not need the luck of the new year to achieve my goals. All we can do is close our eyes and sprint blindly into 2012, and hope against hope that all goes well.

Happy New Year, everyone!

A Lonely Year

Somehow I always find myself being bored. It seems like the only thing that there always is to do is laundry. But that’s fine. I just have one idea drilled into my head: I refuse to be bored this summer. There are so many things to do, yet halfway through the summer I always find myself wishing that school will start. That’s really wierd, because I  have nightmares about school starting for the first three weeks of vacation. However, after such a long and boring school year, I vow to keep busy and enjoy every last moment of summer time.

I can’t lie, I’m excited to get out of Junior High and escape most of  my irritating fellow classmates. Cibola should be interesting, but I can’t help hoping that  I’ll get to start highschool at Vahalla istead, since Torri Nicole ditched me. I swear I do not know what I will do without her. The three years I’ve been in Yuma, living in the same house as her two of those years, brought us so close together. She is my little big sister, and I swear to God if I go more than a week without seeing her I’ll die. So Torri, as you go to SDSU and hang out with Natalie, just remember that I need a weekly dose of Vitamin T to keep myself alive:)
