| It's the first time in a little while than I can actually say I am happy, in the way that says "No one can take my heart" sort of thing. Yeah, some of you might know I broke up with my boyfriend about two weeks ago, after I actually listen to what some snotty little brat said about him. Needless to say, she quite happily put the moves on him after we broke up, but now, I am pleased to announce that she is now officially pregnant, and her parents refuse to let her have an abortion, so her life is pretty much gone now. That being said, I do wish her the best of luck, I just feel sorry that the kid won't have a better mother, because he/she deserves it. Okay, moving on to much brighter, and happier things.
Today I went to a friends of a friend's mom's house, where we were meant to be having some sort of social gthering with people you don't know and you are forced to go up to people and say "Hey! How are you?" with that really fake smile that could give Bree Van de Kamp's a run for her money. It's a little north of Los Angeles, not that far out of the city, but it's heading up into the mountains. As we drive up her really long, painfully steep, winding driveway, I noticed her house was like a barny thingy. You know, half ranch, half place where you keep hay full of horse poop. But I loved it, it had this really rustic feel with a tin roof that felt like if you just sat inside when it was raining, with the TV off and being absolutely still, you'd hear the tiny drops of rain on the roof, which is very soothing. It got even better inside, to be honest, it looked like something out of a Martha Stewart catalog or something. So in the end, we just ended up watching really corny, funny movies, with surrond sound, and because her house is like a barny thingy, it like, echos everywhere, and the dialouge gets mixed with all the echoy stuff and you can't understand a word people are saying.
So, after watching such socially thrilling and morraly correct movies like Jesus Christ Superstar and Pirahna II, we went outside to look at this girl's animals. But onto the exciting thing, I got to milk my first cow today! lmao, by hand into this little wooden bucket, which isn't as bad as I thought it would be, it was actually quite fun. So, as I was squeezing it uddery thingies (what are they actually called? Udderi or something?) an interesting thought crossed my mind "I'd really like to meet the guy who first looked at a cow and said 'what would happen if I squeezed those little dangly things and drank what came out?' " lmao, that'd be fun. I'd expect he'd be some sort of gung-ho hillbilly kind of guy. With a little straw hat and overalls. Speaking of overalls, I saw a pregnant lady the other day, who was wearing those overalls that only come down to your knees and a little cotton tee shirt. It wasn;t the most flattering look, in fact, to be perfectly honest, she looked like an over inflated beach ball.
So yeah, the res of my day was pretty uneventful, saw these hot latin dudes dancing in a little square on the boulevard, it was quite cool really. Anyways, since I'm taking this mini psychology course, and I have to turn in a paper about happiness tips that you have to make up tomorrow, I thought I might show you my top five ones. (And yes, these are actually the ones I'm turning in)
1. Be happy with what you've got. Don't try and change it. If yor life is good where it is right now, you'll know, if it's not, fate will give you a little tap on the shoulder. I believe that everything will work itself out eventually, maybe that's because I'm lazy, I don't know, but it seems to have worked out for me.
2. Don't try to grow up fast. I've tried it, it never works. Trying to be the responsible, all powerful nineteen year old when you're really only the snotty, stuck up fourteen year old doesn't work. Take your time, think a lot, think of everything you've got, because age is one of the few things in life that deserves to be apreciated and respected for what it is.
3. Find a good therapist. Believe me, it helps, and everyone, especially the friends you've been dumping on for the last three months will thank you for. Talk to someone who can help you. When you're going through a rough time, tell someone, and if hey don't get it, keep telling someone else until until you find someone who gets it and is able to help. I once had a friend who said "Harden up" and hardening up is NOT what you need to do.
4. Have a good support system. I really couldn't live without mine. And whatever we do, whether it's shopping, hanging out, painting, what we love about our friendship is that we talk, talk, talk, talk, talk.
5. Don't hate your body. Who cares if your not the thinnest person in the world, with being thin does not come beauty. The real beauty comes within yourself. So be happy with who you are, where you are and what you look like, because there is no one else in the world like you.
lmao, yeah, I'm probably going to fail, but I thought they were good. Anyways, that's it from me now, love ya lots
