Hidden in the shadows

Have you ever wanted to be noticed by the one you love? This feeling is usually felt by us at least once in our lifetime, but will you do anything about it? The majority of us will sadly not, and I believe that should change for you never know when the person you want to spend your life with will be gone. Spending life in the shadows, being quiet will do nothing positive for us. We would probably be better off with just telling that special person how we felt, and then we wouldn't have to worry about all the stress of not telling him/her. Self confidence maybe the most important attribute that we acquire and some people have more than others. The bright side is that people can gain more self confidence, and with this attribute i believe most people can accomplish anything. Even talking to that special person you are terrified to talk to. Boom. 

Can I get 3 Big Macs, and 20 chicken Nuggets?

Well tis thursday and the past two days in my pharmacy class we have watched the movie "Super Size Me", many of you have probably seen this low budget film, but it hits one directly in the heart, literally. Morgan Spurlock the director, and main character, goes on a journey of eating nothing but Mcdonalds for one month, and three times a day. Has his experience goes on, the movie company interviews very important people in the fast food industry, and the health industry. He ends the movie by gaining 27 pounds in thirty days, and the movie shows what America is doing to themselves. Even though fast food is easy to get, we should only eat it at least once a month. America is killing itself from the inside-out. Obesity is the second leading cause of controlable death after smoking, meaning that the user is to blame not natural causes or genetics. So come on America put down the fake food and go eat some salad for a little while and maybe you wouldnt need to go on a diet plan.

Morgan Spurlock: [to kids] I'm gonna show you some pictures and I want you to tell me who they are.
Children: OK.
Morgan Spurlock: [Showing a picture of George Washington] Who's that?
Child: George Washington?
Children: Good. Who was he?
Children: He was the 4th president. He freed the slaves. He could never tell a lie.
Morgan Spurlock: [shows picture that we can't see] Who's that?
Child: George W. Bush?
Morgan Spurlock: No. That's a good guess though.
[Shows picture to the camera, and we see that it's a picture of Jesus]
Morgan Spurlock: Who is this?
[shows a picture of the Wendy's girl]
Child: Wendy!
Morgan Spurlock: Nice!
Morgan Spurlock: Who's that?
[shows picture of Ronald McDonald]
Child: McDonald, Ronald McDonald.

O Happy Days.

Well tis Monday, and after a long, long day i sit down ad think to myself, why go through life unhappy? Not everything has been going my way lately and i wonder to myself, i go through life happy, laughing, and charasimatic, and life repays me in certain ways i dont like at all. I try my hardest to push through it but everytime it seems that i get knocked down (metaforically). I put 100% into everything i do, i live my life to the best of my ability, and i dont get rewarded. Although they're some bright spots in my life, like my beautiful girlfriend ,Sophie Boudreaux, my amazing friends, my future looks brighter than ever( school wise), and i have an amazing family which i get my sense of humor, and my self confidence. So im still going to go through life as happy as possible and live it like there is no tomorow. BOOM.

XOXOXOX

 Tday we talk about the topic of love and valentine's day, and some people have a valentine(including me) but ithers are unfortunate and they celebrate S.A.D.( single aweness day). Before i tell a little story of love i would like to explain my side real quick. Love is something a couple must achieve over a time period, two teens arent in love after two weeks, that would be called lust. We use the term "love" very loosely in today's context. Now im going to tell a little short story about love, and how people need to just speak their minds.

10th grade
As I sat there in English class, I stared at the girl next to me. She was my so called "best friend". I stared at her long, silky hair, and wished she was mine. But she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. After class, she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before and handed them to her. She said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

11th grade
The phone rang. On the other end, it was her. She was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broke her heart. She asked me to come over because she didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine. After 2 hours, one Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, she decided to go to sleep. She looked at me, said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Senior year
The day before prom she walked to my locker. My date is sick" she said; he's not going to go well, I didn't have a date, and in 7th grade, we made a promise that if neither of us had dates, we would go together just as "best friends". So we did. Prom night, after everything was over, I was standing at her front door step. I stared at her as she smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. I want her to be mine, but she isn't think of me like that, and I know it. Then she said "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Graduation Day
A day passed, then a week, then a month. Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her smock and hat, and cried as I hugged her. Then she lifted her head from my shoulder and said, "you're my best friend, thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

A Few Years Later
Now I sit in the pews of the church. That girl is getting married now. I watched her say "I do" and drive off to her new life, married to another man. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't see me like that, and I knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and said "you came!". She said "thanks" and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

Funeral
Years passed, I looked down at the coffin of a girl who used to be my "best friend". At the service, they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years. This is what it read: I stare at him wishing he was mine, but he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love him but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me! `I wish I did too...` I thought to my self, and I cried.

Ah the Classics.

                           As i just finished watching "Rudy", i wondered what happened to good movies, like Remeber the Titans, and the first couple of Rockys. Then i realized how many bad movies are coming out, such as the roommate which i regret seeing. The movie industry needs to get on the ball with some more classics, but look at the bright side they do come out with movies like avatar, and transformers. So as i sign off i will be watching classic movies as much as possible because when there are movies called the sandlot, titanic, braveheart, fight club, shawshank redemption, and american history X, you just dont have time not to watch them.

Tacos and Relationships??

               Today's topic comes from my evening at MUNCHIES, one of the best mexican resturants i have ever ate at. Well every tuesday me, jourdan, sophie, and maybe allison, rhett, and alex go to munchies for taco tuesday, 1$ Tacos. Yea 1$ tacos and they're loaded to the top with any toppings you choose for no extra cost. O did i mention free drinks, with student ID. So munchies might be gods way of saying "hey i like tacos also." Anyway the four of us(me, sophie, jourdan, allison) got into a discussion about relationships. We were discussing What is a healthy relationship?? hhmmm Who actually knows what a healthy relationship is? i mean we all have our opinions but no one actually knows the answer to this question. There is one type of people that i would listen to on answering this qustion and thats really old couples that have bee together over 25 years. So signing off with these last regards today, go eat at munchies, and stop being worried about relationships, have fun with the person your with and everything should be fine. BOOM.

Life. It works in mysterious ways.

             Today is monday and this is my first blog ever, my friend Rhett got me started blogging. Well i would like to start off with a quote that has to do with today's topic life. "And life is a homeless guy Searching for treasure in the middle of the rain and Finding a bag of gold coins and slowly finding out they're all filled with chocolate and Even though he's heart broken, he can't complain 'cause he was hungry in the first place." I had one heck of a day today, first off i didnt go to school till 12 because i thought hey ill sleep in and get some rest. So its around 12 and I had just got finished waiting in line for 30 minutes at burger king for my lunch when i helped to construction workers jump their car. So today was starting off solid because i felt pretty good helping other people out, but little did I know that karma is no where to be found. I parked next to the baseball field, went to school and had a great day. Then i went to baseball practice didnt move my truck, and you know what happens, Rhett Pritchard hits my windshield leaving it all cracked and what not. I helped people today, and didnt do anything wrong, and life treats me like this?? O well because i go through life without worries, and i accepted that it was an accident, and maybe something good will happen to me for once. So signing off with these last remarks, if life is going to good, get ready for a brick wall because everyone hits a wall at least once. BOOM.
