So today I was babysitting my neighbours and the older one put on Boyfriend by Justin Bieber because she wanted to show me this dance that she'd made for it(because of course fourth graders listen to bieber these days)and I made the usual face that I make when someone talks about the biebs.
And then I realized something.
It was good. It was actually good. Not like amazing, but it was good enough that I could actually listen to it alot and not really have that much of a problem. I mean yeah he started out pretty terrible with his high-pitched promises to buy "any ring" or claim that he can't "live without his first love" and all that nonsense but his voice is better now and his songs are actually pretty catchy.
Anyway what I learnt from this shocking experience was that if we actually admit to how things are changing, we can experience all kinds of new awesome. Or in this case more of all kinds of mediocre, but whatever. You take what you can get.
So basically I guess what I'm trying to say is that have an open mind. And with that sprit I tried to listening to One Direction, Rebecca Black and the Jonas Brothers and I realized something else. An open mind can only go so far:P

Destiny
So I was at the mall last Friday and my friend had a mini-spazz attack in Forever 21 over these adorable yellow shorts. And she was going on about how great they were and then she said "it was meant to be." Which is kinda stupid cause they were just a pair of shorts but it got me thinking about destiny and things meant to be and if that's real or if it's just something people say to make themselves believe that nothing is really their fault.
Like when you fail a test and you tell yourself "it's ok, it was meant to happen". Or when you win something, but then you never want to think that something bigger deserves credit for that. I mean you put in all that effort so how can somebody say that it's all in the bigger plan and all your hard work was really just a waste?
I guess destiny decides where we're going to end up but we decide how we're going to get there.
I just realized that that's actually really deep. Isn't it weird how one moment you're thinking bout yellow denim shorts and another moment you're analyzing something as big as destiny?

Rumours
I was just talking to a friend of mine who apparently knows aLOT about my life that I certainly never told her. And you know the crazy part? Most of it ain't even true!
I HATE rumours. Sure they add drama and seem harmless but drama comes at a price and that price is the truth. Because these rumours are usually not true. And if they are, then they're certainly not anybody else's business.
You know something that I really hate? That the people farthest from me, the people who know absolutely nothing about my life right now are the people who seem to take the most interest in discussing it.
If you're the one than you know who you are and I have one word for you.
STOP.

More All About Me
These lists are fun to do and no-one reads this stupid blog anyway so why not-
1. I hate Peeta Mellark. I'm a HUGE Gale fan.
2. I over-read into almost every situation.
3. I hate how putting a slutty picture on facebook is cancelled out with some meaningful quote that it totally unrelated
4. I think it's sweet when people say please. Nobody says please anymore.
5. I'm NOT a Harry Potter fan, contrary to what everyone thinks, atleast not now. I used to be, but I was re-reading one of them a few days ago and I could barely get through it. Its wonderful in it's own place but it's over now.
6. I don't like the sound of violins. Maybe because I've never heard one played properly but it kinda sounds like a wailing baby to me.
7. My first language is not english.
8. I hate it when people don't look at the real world like they're stuck in some bubble or something.
9. I love this really sweet old lady who I almost always see if I run in the afternoon and she always tells me "to run from the obese american".
10. Libraries kinda spook me out, it's hard being in all that quietness for so long. Once my friend called and I started talking to her and almost at once atleast nine people turned and gave me judgemental stares.
11. I hate chords. I love notes. If I could, I would just play notes on my guitar all the time and forget about chords forever.
12. I dont like fanfiction. In fact, I hate fanfiction. I dont understand how anyone can get SO wrapped up in a book that they can actually go bother reading more of it instead of just moving on to something.
13. My favorite english song in the world is Smile by Uncle Kracker because it makes me happy. And Call me Maybe because it is so stupid it makes me laugh. Oh and Pretty Girl, cause really? Who listens to that and doesn't smile?
14. Movies>Books. I wasnt like this before but it's how I am now I guess. I have a hard time finishing any book if it's too complicated. I like chick flicks.
15. I love willow trees.

Spring Break
Spring Break. This is exactly what I need right now.
Online dictionary defines spring break as a recess lasting for about a week.
I define spring break as sleep, friends, homework, sleep, tv, facebook, sleep, food, boredom, running, sleep, books, movies, hanging out, and sleep. Oh and more sleep.
I went to Canada with my family for a weekend. It was okayish. Like it was fun, but we really didn't do much of anything and everyone basically drove me mad.
We went to Butchat gardens which is basically the most beautiful place I have ever seen. Every possible type of nature from waterfalls to willows to the sea to sunflowers was there in this one huge garden. It was gorgeous. It was also huge and super tiring with a strange tendancy to change weather every 2 minutes but that's different.
We watched alot of movies in the car and went on a few boat rides. I love the sea. I love how it's so huge and there's so much going on inside it but you can see nothing but beauty on the outside.
Today I went to the library and checked out like 30 books. I dont really read that much anymore(SO different from how I used to be) but I love these books. They're literally like Bollywood movies on paper.
Tomorrow I'm going to see the Hunger Games with a friend, day after some-one's coming over, day after that I'm hanging out with another one, Friday I'm going shopping with someone and Saturday I'm going to the mall. So it is a fun break on the social side but I'm not having week long sleepovers like so many people. Like my mom would ever let me anyway.
So thats my spring break. Its not a wild night on a beach and Its not a week spent with a textbook.
It's average.
Like me.

NHD
NHD is this big event coming up on Wednesday, and nobody is thinking about anything other than what to wear. I already have my dress! It's olive, with a silver belt, a little higher than my knees, and made of this soft, perfect material. I'm going on Saturday with one of my friends to help her find one of her own, but I doubt she'll strike gold like me. Teehee.
A couple of my friends are buying matching dresses, which I think is cute, but also a little tacky. Alot of my guy friends have suits, and I'm excited to see them wear them.
I jsut realized what a cheesy, peppy person this post makes me seem like. Well I am a cheesy and peppy person, but more than that I really am excited to see my friends all dressed up. People become something new when they're dressed up. They become more i dont know, innocent i guess. So I want to see what all my friends will become when inside they feel like princesses and knights inside.
Again, I realize now this post makes me sound all insightful and strange. I'm not really that either.
I'm ust excited about my dress:P

My favorite things about school
I know that everyone hates school but its not that bad. And to prove that I'm not abnormal I'm going to make a list that nobody can argue with.
1. Morning bud ride- I won't lie, the earliness gets to me. But I like seeing my friends in the morning and I like the ride to school because if I dont end up sitting next to someone I like, I like having the time to wake up and the ride to school really has a beautiful view. And if we get there early enough than sometimes I go for a run with one of my friends.
2. First period- LA- My LA teacher is actually amazing. We never do the same thing twice in LA in one week which is why it's so much fun. Secondly, most of my best friends are in that class and I like spending the first part of my morning with them.
3. Second- Math- I don't really like my math class but I love my math partner and most of the people who sit around me. I like having math in the morning, and I like that feeling you get when you do something right. Don't get me wrong, I dont do math for fun. These are jsut the good parts about it.
4. Third- History- History is one of my favorite classes, my teacher is awesome and I have all the same people from LA.
5.Lunch- Who doesnt love lunch?
6.Guitar- I dont really like anyone in my guitar class because its mostly seventh graders but I really love playing the guitar. It relaxes me, and I especially love to sing while playing.
7.Science- I like learning new things, some of my best friends are in the class, and the day is also almsot over:P
8.French- I LOVE French! Everybody does! It is everyones favorite class because the teacher is AMAZING.
9. Willy Wonka Practise- Sometimes I have practise. I'm the house manager for the play which means that I paint things, work on marketting and figure out how to work the magic like make someone fly or someone explode. Not only do I love almost everyone in the play, I also like the actual job. Its fun to look at what we can do, painting big things relax me, and I love marketting.
10. Other days I go home on my bus- Which I have already explained.
I just realized how cheesy this post makes me sound and I just want to say that you are completely right, I am cheesy.
