You Might Regret What You Let Slip Away

Seize the day! Don't sit there and stare at the world. We are here to live. So live. Take that chance you were thinking about. Don't let everything you want slip through your hands. If you never take risk, you never succeed or fail. So are you just going to sit there and be neutral your whole dang life? No. Never. Not me! I would rather see success right next to failure. Risk is worth taking. Go ahead try for yourself. Tell that special someone that they are special. Go outside and have fun. Dance like no one is watching. Confidence is attractive. Show that you aren't afraid of others. So what if you fail? Does it truly matter in the end? We all end up six feet under. Go out tomorrow, and just take that risk. Tuesday I should take some extra risk. Tell some kids what I truly think. So should you! If everyone said what they thought there would be no confusing girls! Haha. Seize the day.

Move Along, Just To Make It Through

When everything is wrong, we move along. Why can't people grasp this concept? It isn't that hard. We have all been taught how to live, and what to do. So why when are we kicked down, we stop. It doesn't make sense. I take joy in seeing myself pull myself out of the dirt and stand up. Even if this is just to get kicked down again. No matter how many times I am hit, kicked, and pushed face down into the dirt, I stand. Why is it that I see so many others just stay on the ground? Have they no honor? If we let others push us down we give them power over us. We let them show they are better. Is that really what you want? It makes no sense. When everything is wrong, we move along. Move along just to make it through. Never go against what you know to be true. If you know they aren't better than you, then get back up. If you know that you have to get up. Get up.

Wow...

I haven't been blogging like I use to. I guess life just got busy and I kept pushing this off. Everyday I would just say, I have one more day tomorrow. This really became a problem for me this last term of school. I got lazy and now I have started to procrastinate. It seems that every year I start the school with renewed energy and I get everything done and everything is just fine. Then this energy carries me through 2nd term and most of 3rd, but by 4th term I am so lazy that I don't do anything until the day before it is due. This is something I plan to work on this upcoming year. With the classes I'm taking next year I can' t afford to put things off. With an A/B schedule it will make it easy to procrastinate, but it will hurt me if I do. I just need to use my mind and put it towards doing my work. It isn't so much that I can't do my work, just I don't feel like it. There is always tomorrow right? Wrong. If we all put things off until tomorrow our lives would be ruined. Such is the example of eating healthy. If we put it off then we are just hurting ourselves. Or it doesn't have to be something physical. Like asking a girl out. If we keep putting off, we will never go out. (Learn this now boys!) Procrastination should be considered evil. Sloth is one of the seven deadly sins. So start working now and don't wait for tomorrow. Because today is the tomorrow you talked about yesterday. Not everything can be pushed back a day. If we do, we become sloths. They aren't the most beautiful things either.

Answered Prayers

I did end up getting to play that varsity spot. #1 doubles! It rocked hard core.

My prayers have been answered left and right these past days. I love it. I feel like I mean like something. I feel great. I feel like I just won the world series. I love it. I think that this feeling should stay, but just like all other things, it must end. Well families are an exception to this. Families are forever!!! ^^ Isn't that the most awesome thing ever? Honestly, who wants to just be married for one life when you can be married for eternity. That I think will be the best thing ever, to get married. I want to find someone I can love forever. I want them to be the most perfect thing ever. Not just something good. She is going to be awesome, gorgeous, lovely, righteous, smart, funny, and the best girl on Earth. She will be freaking awesome. She will be my wife. She will be a mother. She will be friendly. She will be compassionate. She will be these and more. I can only imagine what she will be like. Once I find her I will know. Cuz she will be awesome! Only 5 years 8 months 18 days until I can look for my wife. It seems so long,but really it isn't. Time is like a truck. At the start it is very slow, but as it accelerates, it speeds forward faster and faster. Hopefully time will keep on trucking. Yet sometimes I don't. It is nice to be young. To make mistakes, to have fun, and to just do whatever. I wish life was a two-way street, but as we all know it only goes one way, age. BLAH!!

Missed Chances and Sacrifices

We all have had to make tough choices. Sometimes it is just to eat and other times it can be so much more. Like if you should pay the heating bill or buy food for your kids. I had a tough choice the other day. I had a tennis match scheduled for today. I also had a huge dress rehearsal scheduled for today also. Both ran over the same time slot. The tennis match was just a match right? Go to the dress rehearsal so you can perform in front of MANY people this Friday was the obvious choice. Well I learned that one of the varsity couldn't play and I was the next guy up. So I would take his spot. VARSITY, on a high school team as a 9th grader! My coach tried to convince me by saying he would give my spot to a worse guy whom I really really really dislike. However, I had made up my mind, I was going to dance. I got lucky today though, it snowed, and snowed hard. They HAD to cancel the match. I was in luck. I even got to talk to my coach, but apparently he was going to play a worse guy in that varsity spot because he "promised" it to him. Obviously he was trying to get me upset for skipping tennis for dance. That seems immature to me and I might not even go out for tennis next year because they do have a ballroom dance club thingie that I would like to do. Maybe if my coach had not been so rude and manipulative I wouldn't make that decision, but unless something changes, I am most likely not going to be on the tennis team next year where I would be varsity for sure. Tough decisions, but I have made mine, dance over tennis.

If you had to make a tough decision such as do you pay a heating bill in winter to keep your heat or buy shoes for your kid, what would you choose? These choices have to be made everyday. Someone has to make them. It is amazing how our mind weighs our choices. We have to put a value to everything. Using these values we have to then rank them. It is sad when the choice comes down to two things we really need, such as heating and food or even clothes. Some how we have to come out with a decision.

Man, Oh Man, Do I need to blog or what???

So as one of my friends has pointed out that I haven't blogged in almost a month, I am finally doing something about it. As most of my readers (if there are any left) know I love dance, I have a performance this friday at LHS. It will rock. There will be over 300 dancers. My team is only 30 of them. We do get to do the opening song and a couple more later in. I will be in a Salsa routine which is the very first performance. I will also be in a Cha-Cha later on, followed by a Samba. I have the same partner in Cha-Cha and Salsa but a different one for the Samba. In the start of the Samba all the guys are in the center and we get to "check-out" the girls as my coach put it as they dance around us. We also get to scream all sorts of things. Like Hola Chickas! Or CALIENTE!!! It will rock hard core. In salsa I'm the second guy to enter on the stage and I am infront for the most part. Then in Cha-Cha I'm second on stage but in the very front until the very end where I am in the center back with no one infront of me. So I get my fair share of the lime-light. Of course we have the finale, but aside from a quick move in the front, I'm in the back for the big finish. Oh well, can't be the center the entire time.

*Note to the few readers I have left, I will post at least 2 more by Thursday...

NOOO!!!!

My laptop broke. The keyboard and mouse both stopped working. It sucks. I have way bad luck with my electronic devices. Such as my cell phones. One found its way into a bowl of water. Another in to my washing machine and then my dryer! I had an MP3 player actually survive my washer and dryer. Another one of my MP3 players survived falling off a two story building, dumped into water, and my dog attacking it. Alas, time was its downfall. I had a laptop before this most recent one that was short-circuitted. My dog chewed on the power cord, and it corroded down to the point where the resistence stopped and it blew it up my motherboard. Bad luck! I have no idea if I can fix it or not. I wonder what happened. I turned it on yesterday and the keyboard and mouse wouldn't work. The laptop started just fine, but this time when I started it, since the keyboard wouldn't work, I couldn't get past the log-on screen. Well, I had an ace up my sleeve. I turned it on and off 5 times which sets the laptop to start-up recovery mode. Basically it is a safe mode that fixes all the basic problems with software and hardware when you do something stupid. Well after sitting at this recovery mode for ten minutes, it comes back and says, "There is a problem with your start-up, please click yes to continue." CLICK!?!?!? How in the heck am I suppose to click yes when the mouse won't work? Thanks for telling me there is a problem, but if the problem prevents me from clicking yes how in the heck is it suppose to fix it? It sucks...
