Returning to the lost works
After stalking my coolest friend's blog I ended up finding this. I had totally forgotten its existence. As I read my last posts my face and back felt hot with embarrassment haha. I'm only a year older than that girl who thought and saw the world so differently! So I guess I'll have to add my tumbler posts on here to have the same experience next year?

Busy Bee
Eh, I haven't written in forever. Maybe because with IB I have been wayyy too busy. I like it though. The problem is, I'm getting moody again. People are annoying me and I'm just ignoring them. I'm tired of being at my house...I wish I could go out. I NEED A JOB! I don't want to go off to a restaurant tho...I want a cool, fun job. My mom keeps pushing for Luby's...but my step works there-- NO thanks.
Soo yeah. While riding the bus today I got to thinking...part of convincing the Sophomores to join IB is by telling them how it is hard, but worth it. Part of advising the Juniors is by telling them to NOT PROCRASTINATE AND DO THEIR WORK...;however, I was thinking a lot. Why not tell them that yeah, do procrastinate and think you can do it...you'll fall on your face and learn a good lesson, but in the end...IB teaches you a lot.
which got me thinking that when I have children, I will try to guide them but NEVER keep them from making mistakes. I think making mistakes is what has taught me how to do things right. Why tell children what to do if they'll end up trying what they want anyways?

Prince Charming
I often hear girls say that Prince Charmings no longer exist.
I hear that men rarely try anything to win a girl's heart.
Chivalry has died. Prince Charmin disappeared.
HOWEVER, I believe that they are still alive.
Prince Charmings I mean.
I think it was those innocent, desirable Princesses who disappeared.
I guess what brought me to this idea had to do with something I heard in class.
This girl's phone was taken up by a substitute and the girl claimed it had been
something important.
"Wow, I had never seen a girl ask a boy out!" commented the substitute after looking
at the message (the girl told her to do so).
I believe that the reason Prince Charming has disappeared has to do with girls being too easy nowadays. We don't value ourselves like past generations did. We make it too easy on guys. If a guy likes us and asks us out we say yes and that's the end of it. No flowers, no great deeds, nothing is required from them.
In old times, girls were wooed. Their "admirers" visited their homes and sat in the family room to talk to them. They might have taken a walk through the garden. They brought flowers and expensive gifts. Those times, women seemed more like...I don't know. Just not as easy as they are nowadays.
My mom always told me that if a guy really loved me, or wanted me, he would have no problem coming to my house and speaking to my parents. If he valued me, he would never think twice about making me happy. She's right. As much as I wanted to think that a guy didn't need to suffer to deserve, well...I was wrong.
Needless to say that now I am determined to make the next guy do everything to get my attention. I will most definitely not make it easy. If he's my "one" he will have no problem stepping over hot coals just to please me.
Now, hold on. Don't think I'll make him do all this in vane. Oh, no. You see, I have a lot to offer. The day I fall in love, I plan to give it all. I want to take care of that person. To love him, cook for him, take care of him, and most importantly...please him. I will make sure he is the happiest man on earth. So, in order to gain all that, a man will have to win my heart. It won't be a matter of materials, but actually...of thoughts. I won't go for the man who buys me expensive jewelry because he has extra money...I will go for the one who buys me a flower with the little extra money he gets left. One who will feel honored to make sacrifices for me. =]

The Beginning
When a child is born its future is quite unknown.
Maybe it grows up to be a lawyer, a doctor, a teacher...heck even a stripper.
I believe that is the beauty of birth.
The beginning on something new and unknown.
Welcome to my blog.
You are a witness of its birth.
Where my blog goes from here...only time will tell.
I will only say that it will be my soul's mirror.
Reflecting the inside me...
