Forrest Gump Was Wrong.

"Life is like a box of chocolates, ya' never know what you're gonna get."

In my opinion, this quote from the beloved classic movie, "Forrest Gump" is flawed. (How is it flawed?) I'm glad you asked.

Don't get the wrong idea, I love the movie but, a box of chocolates usually comes with a chocolate map. In which case, you would know exactly what you were getting.
Life doesn't come with a guide. We all wish it would, though. It would be nice if, when meeting someone, you could just look at a piece of paper and there it would say,"Easy to talk to," "Likes the same shows," "Talks way too much about problems," "Get's a weird tick when listening to country music,"or "Good listener...". You get my point. We don't have the aw-inspiring chocolate map of animate existence. If we did, it seems like we would be farther along in the world and there wouldn't be as many wars.

'Life'

I know what you're thinking...(Okay, I really don't.)
Ha! Thought I would put some sort of general thought in your head, didn't you! No, the truth is no one can read minds, especially through the internet.

Sorry off topic.

Life is a very unexpected thing. You never really know it's there until it runs up and smacks you in the face.
You may even think life is perfect. You may think nothing could go wrong. Things get routine after a while and you're sort of happy about it. That's the point where 'Life' gets bored, turns around and gives you a reality check. It tells you that things have actually been wrong for a while, but you were to caught up in the routine Life gave you, that you didn't even notice.
Don't get me wrong, when Life gets bored it might also throw you a bone.
You might already realize how much your Life sucks, it starts to feel bad and it may give you a raise at your job or something awesome like that.
Everyone's Life is different, which means each life acts differently than the others around it. We just need to learn how to control our Lives and not let our Lives control us.

Just a deep thought of the day.

Something Random

Last night I was listening to my music, and we all know where that can lead...
That's right. I was dancing! It was a huge performance too, just ask my mom and my sister (or don't).
Anyway, during my spectacular performance, Jocelyn asked me why I wasn't a theater major. I told her, "Because, theater majors are weird." Then she proceeded to tell me that 'I' was weird.
For the record, everyone jumps around, dancing and singing, making weird faces and huge gestures to music all the time. I just choose to do it in front of people. (:
Not just anyone of course. It's okay for my family to believe I'm weird, but the people I see only every now and then...that's a different story. I don't want to appear outlandish or freaky!

Now that I have that out of the way, let's talk about pet peeves.

Do you wanna know what gets on my nerves? When people spell things wrong. (Really?) Yes.
If you're going to spell it wrong, why don't you say it wrong too? I know I spell things wrong. I'm not trying to be hypocritical..but if you're going to spell something, and you don't know if it's correct or you know it's wrong and you can't think of the right spelling, do this:
1. Ask someone around you.

If no one is around:
2. Press spell check, look it up online or look it up in a dictionary.

If no one is around and you don't have a computer or dictionary and you're texting someone or leaving a note:
3. Say you're sorry if what-ever you're spelling is wrong.

If no one is around, you don't have a dictionary or a computer, you're not texting or leaving someone a note:
4. Don't spell it, because, odds are it doesn't matter.

If you have any irrational pet peeves, I'd love to hear about them. Send me a list of your craziest peeves and I'll post some up (with comments from me of course, don't worry, I won't embarrass you. You'll be anonymous). You can email them to me at jacinda_dawn@hotmail.com .
