L.A. Candy

So, I just got done reading my first book other than school on my own yesterday. It is called
"L.A. Candy" by no other than Lauren Conrad. It is her first out of three books she will be writing. The next book in the series is said to be released in Feb '10.

In my opinion this book was great from start to finish. It is about a girl named Jane and her best friend Scarlett that move to LA to start new and fresh lives. They knew exactly what they would be getting into. Late nights at the clubs, shopping on Melrose, and seeing celebrities everywhere they went. However, they did not know that they would soon be a celebrity themselves. Both Jane and Scarlett got the chance to be on a new reality tv show, but what they didn't know was that their lives would never be the same again.

Sometimes you have to let go....

I have experienced and learned that "sometimes you just have to let go" let go of friends, different temptations, things around you, bad habits, etc. One thing I have let go of recently is smoking. I got in and out real quick. I was never an addicted smoker at all. I probably have only smoked roughly 15-20 cigarettes in my lifetime starting when I was 19 years old. Some people smoke that in a day or two for every day of their lives. I realized that smoking is not me at all and it was something I had to try for myself. Also, it is obviously not good for the lungs. I had to let go to better prepare a longer life!!

Another thing I have find myself letting go is friendships. Yes, friends come and go, but in my 20 years I have only "had" to let go of one friendship. It wasn't easy, and definitely took time. In the situations I was in I could not be friends with this person any more.

So, to get to my point sometimes you have to let go. For better or for worse. You think it may be worse at first, but in the long run it will be for better. It's like the rain comes first, and after that you will get some sun and a nice little rainbow. Don't be afraid to let go. Don't be afraid to hurt someone. Eventually everything will be alright my friends! Trust me, I know.

Nothin stays the same forever, but some things just get better

Reflecting back on my life I have learned that "nothing stays the same FOREVER, but some things get better". Things that we want in our lives change and at some point are there anymore. A very easy example of this is friends. We have friends in our life that we see in our lives 10 or so years from now, but it doesnt even make it past 1 or 2 years. People are constantly changing and you may think you know, but we will never know what is next. Only "TIME WILL TELL". I look back from my freshman year in High School so much has gone down and I never thought I would end up the way I am today w/ the friends I have. It's not how we always picture it to be. Although, some things did get better that have been in my life. It didnt stay the same, but GOT BETTER.

So, I want to encourage you all to live for the present and not for the future. Nothing stays the same forever, and you never know what you got till its gone.

Put others down, To fill us up...Oppressing me will oppress you

I'm sure a lot of us can relate to this "TITLE". At one time or another we all fill down in our lives. It could be because a friend/family member let you down, your having a rough day, you mad, etc. When this happens we want to feel good. So, what do we do? We do thinks like make fun of other people and try to hurt someone(not in a physical way) to fill us up and make sure we feel good about ourselves. I used to be this way, but am not anymore. There are ways around this people. From my experiences when I am down which really doesn't happen often I Stay alone and think about things, go on an escapade(I have my spots), talk to a best friend about my situation, talk to God, or listen to music. All of those things distract me from even think about putting someone down to fill me up. I encourage you all to find different ways to build yourself back up rather than to turn to someone and tear them down to build yourself back up. In the end hurting someone else, will hurt you in other words "What goes around, comes back around"

What you see is what you get

"You should take me as I am". Almost a lot of the times at least for me "1st impressions are everything". I have a bad first impression, its probably bad for future encounters with that person. What I see from someone from the first impressions is what I get. I think not, I don't fully believe in this "quote at all". It's 50/50 for me. What you see is not always what you get!

SUMMA SUMMA SUMMA SUMMA TIME

It has been a very long, but good weekend with all of my friends. I'm not going to write about much just tell you about my summer a little so far. My summer has been great and I'm loving it. This past weekend was great. Friday I worked all morning and afternoon then went to Clifton w/ Huggs and did it big. On Saturday I had to get a new battery for my car ughh, then I went to a soccer tournament to see my Mom's team play. They tied 2-2. After that I went to a cook-out that was pretty sweet. Umm then went to a friends house and sat around a fire for a lil then headed out to Miami and did it big out there. Sunday I worked all day and after work I went to a flag football game hahah. They won their first game (1-4). Then came home and smashed on the food that my Dad grilled then went to a friends house to chill w/ the boys. Tonight, I'm going to my friends house to do it big w/ the boys. Tomorrow hopefully going to the Reds Game. The rest of the week I plan on watching my college baseball team play baseball for the national tournament in Mason on Wed and Thursday! I'll write something worth reading soon.....

Have a good day/night all!

Things aint always set in stone, Let me know

You followers of mine may have seen my "TITLE" on my facebook status more than a few times or my away message more than a few times. It comes from my favorite song by Kanye West called "Street Lights" If you have never heard it I highly suggest it. It's a great song from the words to the beats.

Anyways surprise surprise to everyone THINGS and PEOPLE change. I happen to be one of them. Yes, It is cool to picture where your life may be in a year with friends, a job, different activities etc. The truth is "THE FUTURE IS ALWAYS CHANGING". Things a lot of the time don't end up the way we see them in our head. I know this from experience and why my "TITLE" sticks out to me so much now in this point in my life. All good things must at some point come to an end. I really never look into the future anymore and imagine how it will be, because I don't want to see everything that I want to happen in my PERFECT WORLD just to see it never happen in other words I look at it as I don't want to let myself down.

So, just remember things and people change. Friendships may come to an halt, people who you see one day may not be there the next etc. So, "Things aint always set it stone, Let me know!!" And if they are........Let me know
