And they said 'Speak Now'...

Alright the challenge is to try and post daily...
lets see how i manage this one...
fingers crossed!

I've got lots of pictures in my head...

alright so im slightly failing at this whole post regularly thing...
i swear im trying! i promise. anyway, here is another round of my view on life.

what do you do when you are completely thrown? i mean you were at the receiving end of a curve ball you had no idea was coming? and not a easy one either, this curve ball was fast hard and pretty much knocked the wind out of you..
yeah i have no idea either. so any tips would help greatly to be honest. but so far this is the way i have dealt, talking. talking to people, and the best part about this is those people are there to help you through it. that was my favourite thing about all this. the person who i first turned to was there to help me back up. and not just that but helped me laugh again. this was brilliant cause i wasn't sure they were going to be, but this person was the first one i wanted to turn to. so bonus. :)

i wont go into details about why or what threw me as that is my personal life and i dont really like sharing (whats the point of a blog i know) but... just keep in mind, when you catch the curve ball, it feels freaking awesome.

till next time

Everything You Think You're Not....

okay, my rant time.

being cool. what does that mean to you? for most people it means being 'hip', part of the 'in' crowd, being someone who stands out from the rest, a trend setter, someone who you notice because of something unusual, in other words for most people... someone other than them. but what is it really?
answer- being yourself.
i know, i know, so many people say that, and its all about being happy with who you are and you'll be fine, blah, blah, blah, blah. but....

have you ever noticed that those who are really truly considered 'cool' are the ones who dont care what others think... who do things cause they want to not because some toothpick of a 'celebrity' in a magazine is telling them too... who really honestly doesn't give a damn... coincidence? i think not.

and i do understand where you are coming from, i have been there. reading those magazines wanting to be exactly like the models on the pages and then seeing that style and flawlessness on girls at school. hearing those people talk about how their life is perfect and when they do have troubles, wanting to be able to face it with the confidence and poise that they do. i understand wanting all of that.

but i figured it out. i can have that as well. i just had to stop worrying about how people will react to me. if i did something that i wanted to do, sure i might piss a few people off, but thats not my problem. it sounds mean, and conceited (and trust me im not like that normally) but you can't please everybody so why try?
and the more i found myself doing things for me and not trying to be like everyone else, the more people said they liked me, they though i was cool- which was a completely new concept!

so it is something your mother says when your feeling like crap, but have you ever thought that she might actually be telling the truth... just a thought.

rant over.

The Mirror Can Lie...

you have no idea how true this statement is. it was made extra known to me a few hours ago by a friend. whom we shall call Elle. obviously its not her real name, but i like calling her that cause as much as she doesn't want to believe it she is very Elle-egant. huh, see that. corny i know, but cute. :p So Elle is an amazing person but she has been battling her daemons. she has a voice inside of her head that always says nasty things. 'other me' as she is known. not worthy of a name besides that. these nasty thing range from the petty to the down right disturbing, and never cease to make Elle's life horrid.

but i wish she could see what such a beautiful person she is. she is an AMAZING writer, but she cares too much about what other people think. she wants to love life but doesn't feel worthy of it. she has a wicked sense of humour but doesn't let very many people see it. shes not social yet one of the fiercest friends you could ever have. she has so much to give but no one is willing to give her an chance, and then she is not willing to give herself a chance. i really do wish she could see what i see.

and before you all come back at me saying that i should be saying all this to her instead of posting it on my blog, i have and she knows all of this i pushed her today with all of this. im sure she got pissed at me, but i have actually said it to her.

so Elle if you're reading this, as i said before you dont have to believe this, but dont forget it. you are amazing, beautiful and wonderful. never give up on anything cause the best things in life are the ones you HAVE TO fight for. you have the fire, you just need it to burn when you want it to burn not the other way around. you are incredible. <3
