Day 15: reading FTW!

Kay so yesterday's non existent blog can be explained by the fact that I was sick. D:
I ended up coming home from school early and sleeping for 3 hours, and I HATE missing school. Idk why, but it's been burned into my brain that I can't miss schoool. I'm that annoying kid who goes to school even when they're sick and blowing snot all over the place, so you know it had to have been bad cause I actually came home.

Anyways I'm currently eating lasagne, drinking orange juice and listening to Jai Ho. The version with Sukhwinder Singh, not the pussycat dolls cause this version, imo, is waaay better. :) One thing I don't get is why it's the pussycat dolls FEATURING nicole sczeringer. Kay so I have nooo idea how to spell her last name. And you should go watch Slumdog Millionaire, if you have not. Because that movie is AWESOME!

Ohhh, I started reading Girl At Sea, finally! I've had it for so long, cept I decided that maybe I should finish reading the 5 books I need to read to be able to vote for White Pine before I read that cause I own it. I found the hardcover for $2 at Chapter's which I was amazed at, it also let me to finding a new bargain section there, which is always good. :D But yeah, I shall keep you posted on how it is. I also just finished reading Dooley Takes The Fall, which is a White Pine book and I didn't really like it. I think there was a good idea there, and I kept waiting for it to get good, cause you think it's gonna, but it just doesn't. So it's okay, but not great. And believe me she had the potential to make it amazing, but it wasn't. :P

Finally, my friend Dillon would like another mention. Also, me and him are gonna take over Canada and create a dictatorship. So how this started is that I went up to the front of the class to figure out what topic I'm gonna have for our project and when I get back I'm asked "Do you wanna create a dictatorship with me?" and of course I say "Sure, why not?" Btw I've always been unsure if you put a ? at the end of that cause nobody's sposed to answer, but w.e. Yeah so really I don't see what else I could be doing with my time. :P
Btw, it's clearly a joke.
Yes, so Dillon is a cool kid. :)
Even if he prolly only asked me cause Jennie said no. :P

BEDA fail.

Yes, so that second post on whatever day it was didn't happen, and then the next couple days didn't either. Sorry, but it was a rough week and I just didn't feel like blogging. Nothing really exciting has happen though. I'm taking a defensive driving course for insurance benefits and to get my G2 sooner though. So that means I pretty much have no weekend, even though I was really looking forward to having 4 days off. *sigh*
My friend Dillon wanted me to mention him in my blog so hi Dillon!
What I think I'm gonna start doing with this is find a news story that I like and talk about it, cause my life's not that interesting. :P
Cept not today cause I'm tired.
So that's all for today and there will be more posts for Beda. :)

OMG I MISSED ONE!

Kay, so I kinda forgot to do a BEDA post yesterday. It's not like anybody reads this so it doesn't really matter. However, to make it up I will make two posts today.
Gah! My hands are freezing, I can barely type. D:
So this post shall be about yesterday and the other post shall be about today. I could just combine them, but then how will I make up for yesterday? :P
I want 30 posts in April! :D
So, yesterday was pretty uninteresting. There was some very unorganized stuff that I was extremely angry about, but it's no longer my problem, so whatever.
Other than that I got a little bit of homework, which I finished while my friend was over so I could just go on the computer and read for the rest of the evening, which is great for me.
So, yes, forgetting yesterday is made worse by the fact that I had extra time on the computer.
I actually did remember, but I was too lazy to turn the computer back on at that point just to blog. :P

Day 4:

So I ended up getting home around 1 am last night. I spent like 2 hours sleeping on my friends couch while we waited for our moms to return. :P
But overall it was fun. :)
Not really sure what to talk about since I did pretty much nothing all day.

Something I'm realizing more and more everyday is that nobody ever has to be alone in anything. There will always be someone there for you and if you're really lucky you won't be able to push them away. Whatever your excuse is, you don't want anybody to suffer with you, they don't wanna hear about this, they've got problems of their own, I can do this on my own, etc. Whatever it is, they'll be there. And I'm so glad that I have people like that in my life. They've made everything so much easier for me and I don't know what I would have done if they weren't there. But, what I was getting to before was that everything's a lot harder if you don't let those people in and share what's going on. Sometimes even having someone there that will listen is good enough to ease the burden.

On to my next point. There is someone else out there who is going through the same thing as you, or someone that has gone through the same thing as you. Unless of course you have an extremely unique disease that nobody else does, then you are the only person who's gone/going through that. But the point is if you really feel like nobody understands you chances are that somebody you know has gone through the same thing you're going through. Or is going through that now. You don't have to be alone. Ever. And nobody should have to.

I guess most of this came from the TWLOHA video that's up on their youtube. And what Jamie talks about is how people are meant to be around other people. We are social creatures and solitude just isn't for us. We need people to share our grief with, and we also need people to share our happiness with becuase that's just as important. Which is something else, just because someone is going through a hard time doesn't mean that the happy things shouldn't be held important. That's something I've learned over the past year. Because ignoring your acclomplishments or stuff that makes you happy in a time of sadness will make that time a LOT worse. Obviously it's not gonna be as great as it should be, but that doesn't mean that it should mean nothing.

Right so TWLOHA is To Write Love On Her Arms and I think what they're doing is great. Getting the message out that every life is worth saving and that every story deserves to be heard. And in my opinion a lot of people keep to themselves because they're scared to admit that they're imperfect. I know that everybody knows nobody's perfect, but when somebody thinks that there is something really wrong with them, or that they should feel a certain way, they're really not going to want to talk about that. But keeping things to yourself is a lot more destructive and in the end it's going to be way worse.
By this I don't mean tell everybody, but tell somebody you trust. Somebody that will be able to help you, or just somebody that will listen.

Not really sure if I got what I meant to say across with this message, but yeah, I guess I've just been thinking about stuff :P
And I'm there for anybody who needs me. :)
That's all until tomorrow!
