| i'd like to start off by saying that i'm a fucking idiot. well, not maybe an idiot, but i'm going to put an emphasis on the fact that i haven't posted in this for so long that i was searching for over a minute for the "post" button. actually, i wasn't even sure how to go about posting a new entry at all. but i found it, obviously.
anyway!
today i was talking to my dad about how immature my brother is (we were going to go to the store and leave him and his friend in the house alone). i was saying that there'd be no house to come home to. i mean, he's thirteen. my mom was saying "i let you stay home by yourself when you were his age." well, there's a difference-he's a boy. that's all i'm saying. girls-especially in teen years- are always several years ahead, regarding maturity. then my dad said that when i was thirteen, i was about sixteen or seventeen on the maturity scale. so i said jokingly that now i act like i'm 24. hours later (i'm not sure how many), i realized that it's pretty much true. i can count on one hand (okay, maybe two) how many people my age i can relate to. everyone seems fucking retarded to me (okay, even adults, but it's just a lost case for me now), and they all seem so juvenile. half the time, i find myself complaining and telling people to grow up (and i've realized that most people never grow up). yeah, i know i'm immature sometimes, but at least i know when it's time to quit. what adult doesn't have an immature side, anyway? that's not being mature, it's being boring. hey, the way i see it, as long as you pay your bills and take care of the things you need to take care of, why not have a little fun too?
the thing is, people don't take me seriously enough. they still see me as a kid. look, i know i'm only sixteen, but i know what's up. i'm at least as smart as you, maybe even smarter (not to sound cocky, but 95% of the people i meet in my life are stupid). they still treat me like i'm a child. it's extremely annoying. in my book, younger people are smarter because knowledge is fresher in their minds. older people are wiser, because they have more life experience. i know i have my whole life to live, but that doesn't mean i can't be wise too. just because i may not have experienced it, doesn't mean i don't know how it goes.
i know you're still going to just say i'm a kid. whatever. i've gotten over it. one day you'll respect me, and by then i'll be stupid like you.

| these quotes are just some of my inspirations:
"A weed is a plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is
because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music
which he hears, however measured or far away."
-Henry David Thoreau "Love all, trust a few. Do wrong to none."
-William Shakespeare "Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears."
-Edgar Allan Poe "Happiness is as a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you."
-Nathaniel Hawthorne "A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles."
-Washington Irving
"It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation."
-Herman Melville
"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong."
-Mahatma Gandhi
"My heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary."
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Only two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
-Albert Einstein
"There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness."
-Friedrich Nietzsche "Let us be grateful to people who make us happy: they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."
-Marcel Proust
"Some stuff is really tough, and a lot of things are not the way that I want them to be, but I feel so
strongly that if you always act on how you feel, then you will be happy."
-Paul DiGiovanni
"If everyday was a painting, your memory would just smear all the paint together. At times it feels like you are doing something so meaningful and extraordinary... but there are a lot of moments when my mind turns this world into a fish bowl on wheels. I have been living out of a bag for 3 years now... while all the friends i grew up with have started a solid life. I guess in the end i wouldn't trade my smeared painting for anything though..."

| is anyone else, like, completely in awe of the night sky?
it just has the power to make you feel so many different emotions all at once.
of course there's the fact that just looking at it, and thinking about how amazingly vast and intricate the universe is, makes you feel like the tiniest, most insignificant speck.
but also, when looking at it, you feel that you're never alone, because there's millions of other people all around the world, in different countries, who speak different languages, who you probably will never meet, but regardless: they're doing the exact same thing, and thinking the exact same thoughts, as you, at this exact moment in time. and you feel that, somehow, you have a strange connection with these people.
it also amazes me that everyone sees the same sky. the sky you look at now is the same sky that george washington, william shakespeare, and julius caesar once gazed at. just think about it. it's been the same forever, and even though technically it's always changing, people in the future for thousands of years will still be looking at the same sky.
it's just pretty amazing to think about.
four more things:
1. i love when a song comes on, and it makes you think of a random memory that's attached to it somehow, and it just makes you smile. but no one else knows why you're smiling, so somehow the memory is just a little bit more special to you.
2. dane cook is amazing.
3. my aunt told me i have the perfect face to be a silent movie actress. i think i'm going to go to bed (and wake up?) smiling.
4. i love my brother. he's in his room, singing joan jett very badly. the best part is, i don't think he knows i can hear him. - Mood:bored

| i think people waste too much time analyzing everything, and trying to solve every mystery. everyone wants to know exactly what the meaning of life is, what it's all about.
but time is a scary concept. you snap your fingers; two seconds later, that's already in the past. time flies by way too quickly, and life is too short, so why waste any of the short time you have here wondering why you're here? if we were meant to know, we would.
i think the meaning of life is extremely simple, and no one realizes it.
life is just about living. it's about loving, and laughing, and crying.
so try new things. do what you love. watch your favorite movies a lot. like whatever you want to like, and be whoever you want to be. try your hardest. be independent. don't be afraid to tell people you love them. smile. laugh. be happy. try to make your life the best and happiest it can be, because you only get one.
life is good.
p.s. i should totally be a philosopher, anyone else agree? - Mood:accomplished

| today was a good day. today was a blast from the fucking past.
i stayed home from school. i ate chicken noodle-o's (which i, as a child, considered one of the solid food groups), watched fly away home (my favorite movie when i was a kid), watched rugrats (favorite show as a kid), watched pulp fiction, and wore no makeup.
now the last two have nothing to do with my childhood, i mean if my parents let me watch a movie like that then they're from a different planet. not that i don't think they are as it is, but whatever. and the movie didn't even exist until like..'06. or something. and i didn't start wearing makeup until i was...9? 10? and i don't really consider that part of my childhood anymore, seeing as i didn't think i was a child anymore. all the really good shit had already passed. 9/11 happened when i was 9. alright. moving on.
i like days when i wear no makeup and just hang around the house, and i don't have to take any makeup off before i wash my face at night.
i don't know why. i just do.
and days when i relive my childhood are always good.
i miss being a little kid </3 - Mood:hot
 - Music:sugar skulls-wolftron
