I can’t do this all on my own…
I guess sometimes you can expect too much. You can be too demanding, you can want something that doesn’t align with what someone else wants. Have you ever thought you were perfect for someone, and someone is perfect for you? It’s weird, because in some parallel universe, maybe things would have worked. It all comes [...]
My Sixth Sense
Everyone has a unique sixth sense, some abnormal ability that they just know something to their core. I have two- one is the ability to know when a speed trap is ahead. I just know, before people even start braking. My other, and more impressive sixth sense is knowing when people are upset. The problem [...]
My Disability
A friend of mine accidentally dropped a 100 lb keyboard in case on my foot when we were loading a van. It hurt a lot initially, but that feeling of pain wasn’t going away. I ended up going to the university health services, and was told that it might be fractured, and I’d have to [...]
My Self-Respect
Sometimes I catch myself trying to be someone I’m not. Sometimes I forget who I am, and become confused. And sometimes, I realize I’m not putting my best self out there. I guess the only constant thing in life is change. It’s weird to know you lost the respect of a couple people at once. [...]
Getting Introduced, and then seeing
Sometimes I think it is really weird how much/many people we just ignore and are in the background or our lives. I noticed recently that sometimes I will get introduced to someone and then see them everywhere. There is no doubt in my mind that this person existed there before. I just didn’t notice them. [...]
Only as rich as the company you keep
I have been watching CNBC a lot lately, and the economy is an interesting and scary thing. People are concerned about money, they want and even need to be rich. There are people who base their career over money. There are songs about needing money. Why are we so programmed for this money? I am [...]
Why is it called “Head over Heels?”
I have been thinking a lot about quotes lately, and one that I don’t understand is being head over heels in love with someone. A friend of mine recently used this phrase, and I couldn’t help but think how does that mean you are totally into someone. What confuses me the most is that my [...]
Time
While it sometimes appears time is your greatest enemy, some of the time it’s not. Time is that friend who is never around but you know is there for you. Time is passing now while this is being read. Life is kind of like that Ben Folds song “Still”. Everything is always changing, and while [...]
The Library
While I’m sitting here in the library, I think to myself about why that girl is staring at me. Could it be the ridiculous mohawk that I am sporting? Could it be because she is unhappy with her current computer and doesn’t like that Imac in front of her? Whatever the reason, I can’t help [...]
Time Escaping
Memories are not something that we pick and chose to remember. You can’t say “I’d rather remember this over that” and make preferential treatment of the memories you want to have forever. This may be why one of my biggest fears is getting Alzheimer’s. I have been so busy doing so many different things that [...]
