Hmm

What exactly is it about the other gender which intrigues us so much?

Ok. Guys have penises and women have breasts and vaginas
but other than that...we're quite similar
Is it just that physical difference which attracts us to one another?
Or is there something more? Some hidden thing which pulls us towards one another.

While women are certainly no strangers to faking it - we've faked our hair color, cup size, hell, we've even faked fur. I couldn't help but wonder, has fear of being alone suddenly raised the bar on faking? Are we faking more then orgasms? Are we faking entire relationships? Is it better to fake it then be alone?

-[Sex and the City]
Why do we let the one thing we don't have affect how we feel about all the things we do have? Why does one-minus-a-plus-one feel like it adds up to zero?

-[Sex and the City]

Why is it that Sex and the City actually makes me feel good about myself?

Despite the fact that there are over two billion people on the planet, there are times you still feel shipwrecked and alone. Times even the most resourceful survivor would feel the need to put a message in a bottle, or on an answering machine.

“Are there some women put in the world just to make you feel bad about yourself?”

I admit it's tempting to wish for the perfect boss - the perfect parent - or the perfect outfit. But maybe the best any of us can do is not quit, play the hand we've been dealt, and accessorize what we've got.

All women really want is to be rescued.

That's the thing about needs. Sometimes when you get them met, you don't need them anymore.

You shouldn't have to sacrifice who you are just because somebody else has a problem with it.

I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.

When it comes to relationships, maybe we're all in glass houses, and shouldn't throw stones. Because you can never really know. Some people are settling down, some are settling and some people refuse to settle for anything less.





I've been dating since I was 15! WHERE IS HE? [This reminds me of someone I know ;)]
When the truth finally hits you, it's like a ton of bricks falling on a bird. Crushing, painful, and sad.

DH SPOILERS!

Ok, I will most likely get shouted at for this...but I really need to do this rant. For me the most disappointing thing about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was, I dunno...LIKE TWO THIRDS OF IT. There were so many things about the book, that were either incredibly dumb, or just flat-out boring. THE ENTIRE MIDDLE PORTION of the book, where they're just disapparating out of places and travelling the country doing nothing, almost put me to sleep, until JK seemed to realise that these parts were boring as hell, and randomly inserted two chapters "Bathilda's secret" and "Malfoy Manor" in an obvious attempt to keep her readers' interest, cause they're the only times when there's action. The action comes from out of nowhere (a woman turning into nagini?? come on). The ending was incredibly long and drawn-out, and interrupted with chapters that seemed completely out of place (a)The war's about to resume, but excuse me while I stick my head in a sink and go over some memories, and b) lets go to a train station and talk to dumbledore, and i'll come back to life to finish off voldemorrt when I feel like it) The final confrontation was overly dramatic. The whole 7th book cover gave the idea that Harry was alone in facing Voldemort, but in the end, when he does, they are surrounded by people who are watching it like they would watch a soccer/hockey game. What the hell? And the aftermath of the fight should not have been celebratory, (yay, Voldemorts dead, lets party!) it should have been emotional for Harry, with the realisation that it was all over, with some self-reflection. But the biggest problem with the book was that, without hogwarts as a sort of boundary to contain the plot, the story was completely all over the place and a real mess, with everything happening randomly and without explanantion (this is shown perfectly in the chapter "Magic is might", when JK spends exactly one sentence explaining how "over the past month, Harry et. al had been planning an infiltration of the ministry) The plot was overly complicated and random (lets go to the MOM, lets go to see Lovegood, lets go to Godrics Hollow, lets go to Gringotts, lets go to Bill's cottage, and on and on) In fact this confusion pretty much summed itself up when JK introduced the whole concept of the Hallows. While Harry was searching for the horcruxes, then spent like 5 chapters in limbo DOING NOTHING, because Ron and Hermione wanted to find horcruxes, and harry wanted to find hallows, and as a result...NOTHING HAPPENED during these sequences...
So, in conclusion, suffice it to say that I was incredibly disappointed in the book.

I'm not an HP or a JK basher, I love Harry Potter, perhaps too much, cause it seems I clearly expected too much from the book, and I really wanted a great ending from the series.

=[


I absolutely hate the idea of spoilers. It infuriates me that people would sabotage the happiness of others. Who the heck do they think they are? I mean people get serious. If you have no life and no love, why take that out on someone who simply wants to enjoy a great piece of literature.

Yawn!


Am I weird because I've moved past the stage where all I can think about is boys? I fail to understand why the opposing gender is so interesting. Why go through all that trouble just to get noticed or start a relationship that will eventually end?
I personally feel that there is more to life than obsessing over a person. Sure, I like guys, but I don't think I'd go to the extreme of thinking and talking about them 24/7. (At least not anymore ;) ) Don't people have more interesting things to talk about? Doesn't it get boring talking about guys/girls all day? I get tired even thinking about them.
Meh. Maybe its just me. Perhaps I've had enough of the status quo. I need some change in my life.

B-O-R-E-D bored was her name-o



OK. Considering that I am extremely bored and really tired of hearing my neighbors yell, I decided to google the keyword "bored." As some of you may know, there is a site called www.bored.com
I found it highly amusing. Especially its Vitual Online Insult Generator.
Here are some of the insults I got thrown my way:

Yo momma's so poor she married young just to get the rice
You must have a low opinion of people if you think they're your equals.
If Moses had seen your face, there would have been another commandment.
Yo momma's so dumb she thought the TV guide was directions to get to the television.
Yo momma's so dumb she thought Taco Bell was a phone company in Mexico.
Yo momma's so poor I went into her house and saw a bunch of cockroaches sittin around the toilet singin We are family.
I'd like to see things from your point of view but I can't seem to get my head that far up my ass.
You are so dumb, your fingers and toes are numbered.
Did your parents ever ask you to run away from home?
Yo momma's so old she went to an antiques auction and three people bid on her
Shock me, say something intelligent.
You look like you just escaped from planet of the apes.
I'll hit you so hard your kids will be born dizzy!
You remind me of Moses. Every time you open your mouth, the bull rushes.
We think of you when we are lonely. Then we are content to be alone.
I don't think you are a fool. But then, what's my own humble opinion against thousands of others?
I hear you are very kind to animals, so please give that face back to the gorilla.

Oh dear! I hope no one reading this gets offended by Yo Mamma jokes.

Just to get into Capital Ex!

Gate Admission
Adults/Senior 13 yrs+ $10 at the gate
Youth 7-12 yrs $5 at the gate
Children six and under FREE
Senior's Day 60 yrs+ $5


Is anyone else a bit miffed by these prices? I mean, why spend $10 just to get into the damn place? Surely the grounds aren't sacred or anything.
Hmph! Damn people ripping us off. And to think we actually take this shit. I say we revolt and not pay!

Damn bloody people!

Sacrifices are an every day occurance. It's something all of us have dealt with and will continue to deal with. But it still doesn't make it easier to endure.

If Only.

It upsets me immensely when I need to suck up my pride and pretend like nothings wrong. When I have to act as if what was said or done did not hurt me or affect me in any way. What I fail to understand is the measures people will take to hurt others. A simple look of disgust can cause way much more harm than a verbal accusation. Yet, this fact seems to fly by people and they keep on doing it.
Has the world come to such that there is no such thing as humanity anymore. Do we not know how to control our emotions and let bygones be bygones. Sure, it's a basic human act to want to express ourselves and to lash out when we feel physically or emotionally threatened, but is it so hard to forgive those who do that? We all know that such things happen, so why not brush it off instead of wanting to get back at that person.

"So and so said this to me so I'm going to do this."

We've all been taught to act our age and not our shoe size, howevever, most times our shoe sizes seem to get the better of us. Personally, I'm glad that I have big feet. 10 appears to be a better age to act than the normal 6 or 7.

Another thing I'd like to point out: humour.
We all know how well it works as a stress-reliever, yet many fail to use it.

Alas, if all else fails, just smile and nod and accept things the way it is. Not much we can do is there? The world will not cease to exist if a few of us disagree with the status-quo. Unfortunate as that may be.

Mesmerize Me

Wow. I haven't written in such a long time. I've been going through quite an emotional rollercoaster lately.
The bitchy-ness I've made my mother endure. Ignoring many of my friends. Not paying as much importance to the people who've always been there for me. And worst of all, talking to people who shouldn't be in my life.
Know what I want right now? I want a whole different life.

Big city. Fast-paced. Awesome job. Great guy. Restaurant dinners.
Does anyone else ever wish for that kind of life? The Grand Life. The one where everything is perfect, and the problems which do occur can be resolved within seconds by wonderful friends.

If not that, I want a great guy. And a best friend. I know I have best friends right now. But I want the best friend I had before. The one I took advantage of. I knew how important she was to me, yet I always believed that she would be there...forever. I need to get over the past and move on, but this is one thing I regret immensely and I know that there will always be a void in my heart and my life which can only be filled by her.

I want to dance. To laugh. To scream. To run. To jump. But most of all...I want to feel.
