I wrote this when I was taking notes. I decided I would just use it as my blog. It fits.
(And yes the beginning is 'Somebody that I used to know' by Gotye)(Sorta)
I don't wanna live that way! Believing every word they say!I just wanna live my life the way I wanna live it. I want to make the decisions that will push my future in a successful and positive way. Life is about living life to the fullest. I need to plan where I want to go and what i want to do in order to succeed. If you don't think about where you want your future to go then someone else will make that decision for you. You don't get from point A to point B without a plan to go where you are going. You will deal with many issues between A and B that you must press through.
"If you can dream it, you can do it. -Walt Disney"
People will also help you get from point A to B if you help yourself. You have to be willing to do what you need to do in order to get where you want to go. As you make your journey through life you will carry your bad decisions along the ENTIRE time. You can't make a lot of bad decisions and get where you plan on going. And you can NEVER just get rid of your baggage. You know when you see someone sitting alone, shoulders hunched, sad expression, they have baggage. So much baggage that it physically weighs them down. Our bad decisions through life can, not only, affect us in a negative way but can also affect someone else in horrible ways. Maybe you make one bad decision and then the next day wake up with a blood stain on your car and a dead man on your conscience. Just because you are given a bottle doesn't mean you have to drink yourself dumb. Just because you are given into bad circumstances doesn't mean you have to follow them. 'Be the change you want to see in the world.-Gandhi'
On another, semi-relevant note. My rant of the day:
I have realized something and I don't know why it has taken
me so damn long to realize it. I need to quit pleasing you and her and him and
all of them and I need to start pleasing myself. I need to wear what I want to
wear because I like it, not because you like it, or because it is the 'style'.
I need to quit worrying about what all of them think. So what if I play Pokémon,
read Harry Potter, run around barefoot, color in Disney Princess coloring books
and like to lay in the grass and converse with the squirrels. this is my life
to live, not yours, not hers, not his, and you all better damn well quit trying
to run it. I will do what I please, wear
what I please and say what I please if only to please me. Why in the world has
it taken me so long to realize that I am here for myself and myself alone.
Maybe I want to wear a skirt with dirty and ripped converse. Who's to say I
can't just because the colors don't match. So what if I want to roll out of bed
and throw my hair up like it doesn't matter. Who do I need to impress. Sure
I'll need to impress others later, but right now, in this moment I will do what
I want with my life. I will pursue the dead-end major and maybe fall on my ass
while doing so. I will do what I want in order to get the most please and joy
out of my life. I won't go into some career that I hate simply because the
money is good. Money is not what drives me. What drives me is smiling people
and the warm feeling you get when you've done something right, just for you.
