Don’t let the necessary occur.

Don’t let the necessary occur.

I don’t understand why it is so hard to get from point A to point B. There are always so many obstacles getting in the way. I mean this literally when driving on a road and spending two hours to get to a place that’s half an hour away, and metaphorically in life circumstances. Its such a shame that certain things or people hold you back from going to where you want to go. In some cases, its cause you can’t let go and move on but sometimes crap gets in the way and you can’t control it. Being out of control of your own life is possibly one of the worst feelings in the world. Its like having an anxiety attack but for days on end. And pills won’t be a solution. The solution is to simply and bluntly grow a pair and move on. If there is a problem, do something about it. Sitting there and whining makes you look like a moron so do everyone a favor and act like a respectable human being and prove to yourself that you are better than sitting and moping. Anyway this might have seemed a little vague and unclear but sometimes things are better left that way.

Grapevine mall is a mix between fun childish things and creepy old men. I have figured out that creepy old men will always be lurking around the corner, waiting to prey on their next victim. Disgusting yet mostly true. Although, Rain Forest Cafe is magical.

John Mayer is one of the most talented musicians of the decade. If anyone has an objection to that I’d love to have a nice little argue about it but just know you will lose very badly. John Mayer is a genius and his music never gets old (except for Your Body Is A Wonderland…egh) and I can listen to it hours on end. Until you have listened to Slow Dancing In A Burning Room, Split Screen Sadness, and Gravity, do not even attempt to say a bad thing about Mayer’s music. As a person, yeah he can be quite a wanker but musically he’s nearly a Saint. And I nearly forgot his live performances which are almost better than album versions. There are recordings of him just playing the crap out of his guitar with no written music or anything. I have never heard a sweeter sound come from a single man and his guitar.

I absolutely love writing but these college entrance essays are giving me the heebie jeebies. I feel confident in any writing I’ve ever done except for the college entrance essays. Especially when they are about yourself. I would much rather talk about dolphins’ mating habits than trying to describe myself to fit their cookie cutter molds. Its exhausting trying to make yourself sound perfect and flawless when you very well know of the illegal things you’ve done whether its drugs, drinking, or killing a person (hopefully none of those listed). And if you write a sob story about your difficulties in life they just know you’re looking for a sympathy card. The balance is ridiculously hard to find. I wish I could just tell them to take a look at my facebook page and be done with it.

Summer seems to be slowly fading away minus the one thousand degree temperature that is only rising if anything. Less than a month left until I enter that dungeon of a school. At least it will be my last first day of school at Naaman. Being a senior is not going to be a breeze and to everyone who has said that, you’re a liar. I guess I’d rather be busy doing things not related to Naaman than be super involved in that hell hole. (if anyone from Naaman or GISD is reading this, I actually love the school and everyone involved in it).

I need to find out if the rumor of a John Mayer tour is true or not. I can’t find any information and it is driving me mad. I was thinking about going to Weezy’s concert later in August but from his last stunt I’m reconsidering it. (I’m speaking of the concert where he drank himself unconscious and missed his entire show). It was actually quite funny hearing about but I’d be rather pissed if I had paid for a ticket and was disappointed by a no-show.

With my birthday approximately four months away, I’m in need of ideas on what to do besides going out to a sleezy eighteen and up club (and no it isn’t too far away to be planning). I am thinking about going to a nice place to eat but of course am falling flat on actual places. Although, Chuck E Cheese is always an option.

So with Mr. Baker’s refusal of having an IC screening at school, I am now having to find a new place to hold the assembly. This is gonna be more complicated than I thought. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Or if anyone would like to rally together and charge his office with a protest of him giving me three hours to change everyone’s lives, that’d be cool too.

Summer!

Summer!

Hellolo!

It has been far too long since I’ve written anything. My apologies. I have been rather busy. School has just ended, and I passed all my classes with half EOY grades being A’s. Yay. Now is the time that everyone has been waiting for; long days of chillaxing, hanging with friends and not a worry in the world.

Wrong.

My summers have not been ones where I just lounge around and “hang.” Especially since I will be a senior in the fall (tis bout thy time) I have so many college preparations as well as the final goodbyes to my dear friends that are off to university. Plus, a job would be rather nice. Something prolific, but can’t be too choosy these days. Also, I am wanting to learn to play the piano. The list goes on and on.

With many plans already made (Narnia Extravaganza, NG and NF graduations and parties, week in Austin to move my sister into her new apartment, college visits, more adventuring, etc) I am hopeful for the summer. Mostly busy, but rather busy than monotonous.

Change of subject; for those of you who know me, you know I’m a rather paranoid person. Always some sort of paranoia about something. This time the paranoia has reached a new high. Only a handful of people know why I am saying this, and although I may be vague, I will (hopefully) still make some sense.
There are events that happen in people’s lives, unplanned or planned, that seem to not exactly be picture perfect. Then one starts analysing and worrying over that subject until the point of insanity. This is unhealthy. This needs to be fixed, and not by Valium. The only thing people can do for a case of severe paranoia is to have faith that the Universe will set all things right, not matter what the case. Whatever larger being you believe in, it will take care of the problems, issues, mess-ups and screw overs that have, has, or will happen.

I bid thee goodbye with lyrics from the genius mind of John Mayer.

I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues I can’t explain
Who did you think I was?

Every mornin when the day begins
I make up my mind but change it back again
I’m a shifter of the shape I’m in
Who did you think I was?

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was?

Am I the one who plays the quiet songs
Is He the one who turns the ladies on
Will I keep shinin til my light is gone
Who did you think I was?

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was?

Here is a line that you won’t understand
I’m half of the boy but i’m twice the man
Carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
Who did you think I was?
