To the world...

"To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world." This quote has been around for many years, and it only applied to ones who love. Then, this quote started me thinking about love. When do you know you are falling in love, when you are in love, and when you love someone but you aren't in love with someone. I cannot say that I know perfectly from experience, however I can share that there are distinctive features in each person that will allow them to know when their loves time is up. Unless the feeling that you get when you realize you are in love, you have it all the time. 

It makes me wonder how grandparents and parents go to bed sometimes. My grandmother once told me, "Never go to bed angry. You don't know what will happen." I am 18 years old, and I have finally realized what she meant by what she said. At first, I was approximately six and I went home to tell my mother that my Granny says the greatest things. 

I can say from personal experience that no one, should ever, ever cheat or lie on another spouse. But how do you keep things alive, and going with passion? 

No matter how many times someone takes my grandmother's words I will always believe that there is some truth in what she tells me, and sometimes there isn't. I personally believe that my grandmother was onto something. You should never go to bed with a chip on your shoulder, no matter who you are talking to our who you are dating. 

... Will be continued later. 

I heard once that life is like Jack and the Bean Stock. It seems like something crazy to say, or something that people could never relate to. However, if you think about it, everyone is like Jack at one point or another. Jack had a cow, and gave it all up for beans, magic beans. He planted them, as instructed then hoped for the best. The next morning he woke up, and he had a giant bean stock, full of endless opportunities. Maybe the author of Jack and the Bean Stock is onto something. Maybe we should all be a little more like Jack, ready to take chances, and invest in something that could turn out amazing, and provide endless opportunities for everyone. I believe that if you think like Jack, and have just a little bit of faith, maybe you too will end up with a bean stock that could provide endless and magical opportunities. 

The moral of Jack's story is: Take a chance. You may never know what you could end up with. 

Chain of Events

So, I was telling my friend Andrew Tesi that I feel as though we have to hit these milestones as we grow up. Or like a chain or events that we have to follow. 

You're born, go to elementary school, go to middle school, go to high school, go to prom, and graduate, go to university, meet someone, fall in love, finish school, find a job, get married, pop out a couple babies, and live happily ever after. 

Those are usually what everyone aspires to achieve. Now I have finished some of those, I have a job, I'm going to graduate, prom is on Friday, I'm in love. But University, that's a pickle. First off, I never thought I was ready. I don't think I will be until later. And I didn't get accepted into my dream school. Poo-poo on me. 

After spending many days crying and weeping over my loss, I thought to myself. My life isn't over, there are so many more opportunities for me. There are other school, and there is always something called "a second chance." 

I realize that I could have done this all this year, but then I wouldn't have learnt a really good lesson, you have to try your hardest for everything that you deserve. And once you have given it your all, everything you ever wanted will come rolling in.

So here is my new life plan: Go to high school one more year. Take my S.A.T's and actually do well, I am aiming for 90's! Apply to Yale, Brown, UCLA, Princeton, Ryerson, UTM, U of T, Laurier, Carleton and University of Houston Texas. Get accepted into all [if not, most] Apply for scholarships up my wazoo! And then! Go to which ever my hearts desire and have scholarships :] WHOO HOO! Please, hope for the best!! 

Oh! And stay right where I am... In Love. 

Instructions:

Step One: Go into your kitchen, or where ever you keep your cups -- and grap one! (That can fit all 5  fingers in it.)

Step Two: Fill the cup with milk, of your choice!

Step Three: Go to your cookie or snack cupboard and grab some OREO's! 

*Disclaimer! If you don't have OREO'S.. put the cup of milk in the fridge and go get a bag or Oreo's!*

Step Four: Grab a couple Oreo's and proceed to dunk them in your cup of milk.

Step Five: Tell me what you think.

Do Oreo's dipped in milk taste good? Who decided to print similar instructions on the back of the cookie bags? Who first dipped? 

These are questions that haunt me daily. 

Lucky?

I asked a few people lately if they had one thing that they keep or have with them that they consider lucky. I sure got a lot of responses. My boyfriend has his necklace, my sister has her phone, my friends has a coin that he keeps in his shoe, and my other friend has a lucky pipe. It is interesting how people consider certain inanimate objects lucky. All these people believe in one item, that could possibly be worthless to the economy but mean all the luck in the world. Unfortunately, I couldn't stop thinking that I don't have lucky charm. Personally, I don't think I even have luck. This year, the eighteenth year of my life, it seems as though my luck has stopped or ran out. Is that possible? Does everyone have a certain amount of lucky that they can use? Maybe so. But after our luck has run out, what happens next? We just stay unlucky all the time? I don't know if I would be able to handle the way things are going now, continuously. Or maybe we make our own luck, and something in our lives, at any point in the time could be the bad luck charm. I can't help but wonder, where did all my luck go?

Random Waves.

Do you ever sit down and not think? Even if you are in a crowd of people, sitting, standing, walking--just not talking. Does your mind ever go off into a chain of amazing thoughts? Doesn't it always seem as though there is never a place to write it down, or you will never remember it. That happens to me all the time, and I really don't know what to do about it. I will have an amazing epiphany, yet two seconds later I will forget it. Then, I will inevitably spend the rest of my time, where ever I am, thinking about what that amazing thought was. Is it bad if we loose our thoughts? And when we do, does that mean we aren't supposed to think for ourselves? 

First Time!

Well, this is my first time blogging, and I sure do hope that people continuously read what I have to say, and care about what I have to say. Enjoy!
