If I discovered the art of finger tutting and perfected it, I'd be the coolest kid on the block.

2:51 AM and my mind is still in its afternoon mode & fully awake. People always talk about missing school when they feel this summer boredom. But isn't that feeling the beauty of summer? The feeling that you can have all the time to do nothing (or everything) you've been expecting this entire school year. But all people do is sit and talk, no action. Not for me though. This summer has been all about what I've been looking forward to, no plans, no deadlines. I'm pushing back the thought of school as far back into the depths of my mind as I can. Some may call it precious time wasted doing nothing, I call it appreciation. More like self appreciation. Yeah, that's what my summer is all about: giving 3 months all to myself and not to school, to show how much I appreciate my life. Or should appreciate my life.

So back to the reason to this little blog here. I was spending my precious time wasted doing nothing by looking up movie trailers after watching Chaos Theory (FANTABULOUS MOVIE BTW) and my spaghetti mind began thinking about relationships and life and how much people appreciate them. I guess Youtube really understands my spaghetti mind a lot being that I started streaming sidebar links, clicking on one movie title to the next. But back to the point. These characters made me realize how much I need to appreciate life more. You watch movies about love and how these two were meant to be but one of them is diagnosed with a life threatening disease or dying and yet, they're living life to the fullest without a single depressing thought (as this blog is very much full of).. Makes you want to appreciate life doesn't it? For those of you who think your day isn't good enough, or isn't fulfilling your standards to the perfect beauty of a day you could be living, remember those who have one day less to live. I don't know why it's so hard to not think the negative thoughts. To just succumb to depression. It's as if our minds will always be on procrastination mode, ready to appreciate life and go all out only when you find out you're out of time and it's too late. What a sad way to think, but at the same time I hope this isn't me. I hope this little thought is fleeting. Then I can be like all the other characters in the movies and be somewhat at peace.

Love lost.

Stop complaining.

He deserves so much more. I'd like to believe, but I don't believe I am acting quite so very awesome at the moment. I've been noticing a fine line between expectations and reality in my mind that's been keeping me from fulling grasping my opportunities or at least treating this man right. But it's not just a thin fine line, or a dotted black line; it's a thick and unrelenting gloomy wall that keeps me from being how I want to act or should act. Let's call him Mr A. A for awesome. I don't give enough time or thought in my day for him. I don't give him enough thanks. And here he is still drowning me in this unconditional love and I constantly forget to return the favor. It's not fair is it? I act in ways and see what I've become. What is this short tempered complication I've morphed into? Surely it isn't the lady hormones again. No, it isn't that time Tom. Yet all the while, my apathetic mind is starting to take over even more and it's starting to show. But do I care? I'm still looking at my days with an ungrateful frown. Yes, always feeling that urge again to just move far away, somewhere up north. Somewhere I don't know anyone and can leave this confused monster behind. What life. How am I? Am I happy? Am I awesome? Not at the moment no.

This song.

It wasn't love at first sight when I watched Napoleon Dynamite for the first time. Some told me this was the first of its kinda. With the artistic handwritten font credits and the individually awkward personalities.. heck, the movie practically SCREAMED indie. But even though I never actually (and still to this day) fully enjoyed this movie, I did enjoy this one scene. It spoke to me. Telling me that no matter what people think, say or how they would look at you, just screw them and live to your hearts content. Or just dance. Corny as that sounds. Its true. Who cares if people think you look weird? As long as you have fun with it, right? This movie reminded me of this and also reminded me, I really gotta learn this dance.

"Gonna dance, gonna dance my blues away tonight
Canned heat in my heals tonight."
