Well, Ok, This is a page of some different thoughts that pop in my mind. Now, if you're one of my close friends, you'll know that I can get some pretty wild thoughts, but this page isn't like that. Well..not mostly. It's just things I wonder about. Have fun!

    Ok..I think my life is totally backwards. Isn't the saying "Guys come and go but friends last forever" or something like that?? Well..In my life, it seems to be the exact opposite. Friends have come, and friends have gone, but the guy in my life is here forever. That's certainly not a bad thing..but..Now that whole saying is wrong to me! hmm..

      I used to chat on AOL a lot..mainly in the teen chat rooms. In that time, I realized hair and eye color seem to be the only thing a lot of guys care about. Isn't that pathetic? Here's what I mean... A guy would send me an Instant Message that said "What do you look like?" Well..I'm not much for giving a lot of details, so I simply gave him the basic "blonde hair, blue eyes." 2 little facts about me and the dude said "OH MY GOSH, You sound SO HOT!" HOW THE HELL WOULD HE KNOW??!! Who said I was thin and pretty? I could have been...hmm..."Blonde hair, blue eyes, 5'2, 140-150 lbs." You think he would still consider that "SO HOT"???

        Is there something wrong with me? Ok..here's the deal... My mom has a chat program with HearMe,SeeMe features. I watched her chat many times and it was fun, so I decided to try the program out. Well...I got registered and I downloaded the program and went into a Teen Chat room. The room was WAY TOO boring! Some guy played his guitar over the mic (microphone) and that was it. I simply said "This is boring" and left. Well, then I entered my mom's room that is mostly made up of people ages 30-50 and it was SO fun! I'm 16 years old..and I have more fun in a room full of 30-50 year olds. Like I said..is there something wrong with me??

      I like mice, rats, and other rodents. They're cute! Nothing wrong with that, is there? No! Absolutely nothing! So, since there's nothing wrong with that, why do parents HATE rodents???

    Am I cursed or something? I don't have any talent. Some might say my talent is in softball. Nope..I'm good at softball..but I don't think it's much of a talent..more like major muscle memory. My mom says I have talent when it comes to theatre...but nope...I don't think so. You wanna see talent? Visit my friend, Erin's, page!! Her page is full of excellent poetry! Check it out here! She's also really good at drawing stuff..and painting! Then there's Rob. He has A LOT of talent with drawing..very good! Great poetry, too! Those are my 2 very artsy friends. Next..there's Patrick. His talent is with programming computer games. I think he and Rob made a computer game business..but I'm not sure what's going on right now with that.. Anyway..Patrick has a tutorial page for different programming things that I really don't understand here. So..Anyway..I plugged in a bunch of links there...so..Go visit them!! :-)

Change is good. Change is good. Change is GOOD!! Well, freeservers decided to change the Editing part of this service and I'm not happy with it. You see, the text editing part is long enough to force me to scroll the bottom of my browser. How annoying is that?! Now, I have to scroll the bottom of my browser, the side of my browser and the text window. Change is good. Change is good. Someone help me realize that change is GOOD!

    "Life's a bitch, then you die." I, personally, have believed that, then didn't believe it, then did, then didn't, etc. The truth is..THAT SAYING IS SO TRUE!!!! Why does life have to be such a stupid rollercoaster?? Just when a person thinks the world really isn't so bad, everything just crashes down and sucks. I used to think I was happy. I used to think life just could only get better and better. I was wrong. Life always gets worse. People act like they're so wonderful but then before you know it, they're not. Sure, they're great people at first...but why do so many people make and break promises?? Any promise that has even been made to me has been broken. Right now, I don't trust a soul and I don't know when that might change. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe next week. Maybe next month or next year. Maybe never. Just remember this: If you're going to make a promise to someone you really care about, don't break it.

      Life may be a bitch, but it has its good moments. I can't say it doesn't. A person shouldn't hate life. No matter how bad it gets. Suicide is unfortunately a pretty common thing. I can't say I've never thought about it in my life, but let's not go there. Think about this: If you end your life, what would you miss? Let me think, you would miss a wonderful marriage and family. You would miss parties and laughing and friends and everything. I recently learned that a lot of wonderful things about my life are things I really took for granted. Life teaches so many lessons like that. I'm rambling now and I'm pretty sure whoever is reading this is completely lost; therefore, I'm going to attempt to collect my thoughts and sum everything up... Let me think... 1) Don't take things in life for granted because it might be too late when you realize how wonderful those things really are. 2) When things in life aren't so perfect as you want them to be, think of how they can be a positive thing in the future. That might be hard. 3) Um..nevermind. Well, I'm sure this paragraph has made some people very bored but it's just my thoughts about life for the day. Remember..in the words of my friend Kara..."Be Happy!" :-)

        This world isn't all about looks. Isn't that great! When people can ignore what someone looks like and see what they are inside, that's when you know there's hope in the future. Recently, our heater wasn't working and we needed someone to come and fix it. The man came early one morning without really giving my mom a chance to wake up and look at least 1/2 way presentable. As she described it, her hair looked like there was a styling gel mess-up, she had on NO make-up, she was wearing her glasses, she hadn't yet brushed her teeth that morning, she had on a sweat shirt with no bra, sweatpants, her pink house slippers that our dog LOVES to attack, and she was wearing her coat like she was getting ready to go outside. I think she was somewhat embarrassed by what she looked like but she didn't care..it was too early. Well, the guy came and did his job. Let me think.. he fixed our heater, talked to my mom about what was wrong with it, found out my mom's E-mail address and screen name, already knew her phone number, told her he had a motorcycle, and asked if she'd like to go out sometime. Isn't that CUTE?! I don't remember what she told me she said, but a few weeks after that, he gave her a motorcycle ride and they're still friends. My mom isn't interested in the dude, but they're still friends. He ignored what she looked like the first time he met her, and went with what he saw on the inside. The outlook for the future is a positive one!

      Recently, my life has been full of stress. My family was very bitter, school was suddenly busy, and I "lost" a loved one. I'm not great at handling that much stress and I was close to losing control. I thought less of myself which was interesting because I didn't think it was possible to feel less than I already did. Finally, with the help of my friends, I calmed down. I started feeling carefree for a few days. I laughed and joked. Life was suddenly fun. I write this on the 3rd day of feeling carefree. I still have worries...but I know my life isn't in danger and with the help of my friends, I can bounce back from stress very easily. If you ever feel like you're going to lose control and explode, always remember to take a deep breath and talk to your friends about it. They're always there for you. So...Thank you so much to the people that helped me! (You know who you are!)

    High school. Oh my gosh it's annoying as hell!! Being a somewhat mature teenage girl living in a world of overly immature teenagers is a pain in the butt!! Especially the guys.. You know..everyone knows that girls mature faster than guys. I used to not agree with that because I thought I knew a few guys that were very mature for their age. Guess what! I was wrong! They're very immature boys! Think I'm being immature by saying this? :-) Perhaps I am. Remember..I said I'm a somewhat mature girl. Anyway...what's the point of this paragraph? The point is..BE PATIENT! People DO get better! Even if it doesn't seem like they'll ever grow up...they will! For example...My brother. He was a HUGE jerk in high school...now...he's out of high school and so awesome! He grew up...he matured. Oh..and people...RESPECT OTHER PEOPLE!!! I've encountered people that were rude and insensitive and disrespectful...I truly believe it's all immaturity. I forgave them...because one day..They won't be so rude..and getting to know them might be fun. Wow..this is choppy. Maybe I should try to bring things together..Ok... In high school...people can be really immature...being disrespectful and insensitive. Causing hurt and stress and self-esteem issues. Be strong..realize they don't know any better...forgive them and be patient...wait for them to grow up a bit..but always respect them.
