Do we all have our happy endings or is it just a dream made up for those who are unhappy? People have their fairy tales to keep them on the "right path" or to give them hope, but are these fairy tales true? Let's take the classic view of Cinderella.
THE FACTS:
We have a young girl with an "evil" guardian and her equally "evil" step siblings. The poor young girl is enslaved by these evil people being made to do the grunt work of the household. Enter the prince who NEEDS to find a wife. Throw in a ball that Cinderella isn't allowed to go to. Add in a dash of fairy godmother, a pinch of lost glass shoes and the rest is happily ever after.
THE POINT:
Now we are getting to the main point of this discussion; what is HAPPILY EVER AFTER? We hear it all the time, but do we know what it means? I had a conversation with the leading experts on this matter and here is what we have concluded.
THE DISSCUSSION:
THE PROFESSOR: The happily ever after stems from the wanting of human nature to have a good ending. It is just a thrist brought on by our ancestors as a need for poetic justice. The step-family? They get nothing while meek, good little Cinderella gets it all. The story must end so we as humans need to let it hanging. And this hanging gives us the sense of poetic justice.
THE PREACHER: Cinderella is whom we should all strive to be! When she is told what to do she does it! As she listens to what she is told and she recieves SALVATION! Hapily ever after is the eternal salvation given to the meek, humble girl that we should all be like! AMEN!
ALL: Amen?
THE EMO/GOTH*: Cinderella is the girl nobody gets. Happily ever after is the euphoria she feels after releasing the inner darkness that lays wothin the extreme depths of her soul.
THE REALIST: Cinderella had kids and died. That's all it boils down to...WE ALL DIE
THE WALLFLOWER:Well I think...
ALL: SHUT UP!
THE HIPPIE: Cinderella was a groovy chick and she found her far out man in a peaceful explosion of the mind and they were left in a field of flowers forever. Mind blowing isn't it?
THE CHILD:She lived happily ever after.
ME: Well thank you all and I hope we can have another intellectual discussion like this again.
WHAT I THINK:
As we change and grow we see things a little bit different. So what is happily ever after? It is what you make it. Believe in your happily ever after, but sometimes listen to what others say too. Well this has been another pondering of an unhinged mind; tune in next time to here me use the word "hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia." Good day...
*I know gothes and emos are not the same thing to some, and exactly the same to others, I am using the two terms loosely even though they have their distinct differences

What better way?
I do not have class today, so what better way to spend it? Not doing homework obviously...blogging!!
I feel like crap, all I want to do is sleep. It is snowing but I prefer it to snow at night instead of during the day. There is just something magical about awaking to an unspoiled landscape.
Right now I just want to sleep, but I really need to work on Christmas gifts and my play and set. I wish that person would stop being so confusing. Why does this person have to be like this? **SIGH**
I am ready to go back home! I love the dorms, but I love home too. I really miss my younger siblings and would do anything for them. Well there is your randomness for the day...tune in next time for some possible poetry. This is collegegal signing off, stay classy San Diego!

Here we go again
So here we go again.
The thing I mentioned, about taking people's pain on my shoulders. I really want that ! I am so distraught with people's suffering and pain. Please just let me take it away.
I know I can't be happy, but everyone else should be able to be.
My love life is non-existent. All my friends are coupling and stuff, however I am stuck in a relationshipless rut. The last few nights I have had dreams about it. I never see the guy's face but he is there. I have narrowed this down to a few possibilities: one, I am crazy; two, my subconsciousness is projecting my inner fears of never finding someone; and three, God is telling me that I will find that someone, even though I can't see him...he's out there. I like to think that I am crazy.
I want this feeling of not moving to stop. I want this world to see me, accept me and understand me. I want to be happy or see no one else suffer.
Well there you go...I am still me, this is my life, hope you weren't too bored.

Happenings

So I got my birthday present from Patrick last night, it was pretty sweet! It was him acting out the entire Blazing Saddles movie. I loved it. It was amazing.
I went with one of my best friends to the hospital last night, she received the wrong medicine from the pharmacy and thought that she had over dosed. I was pretty scared about the ordeal. She was fine, the doctor told her that she was just having a really bad reaction to the medicine. I am still concerned about her, although it is just my motherly instincts kicking in.
My other best friend is feeling sick and I wish I could help her too. Sometimes I wish that I could just take all of the pain of the world on my shoulders so that everyone else can be happy (I know what you are thinking...I am such a martyr, I really am not, I just feel that way).
I auditioned for Babes in Toyland today, that was fun...hopefully I'll get a part...if not, oh well.

So this is my blog

So this is a blog...okay. I am really not expecting many people to read this, so let's get started:
Right now I am confused about life, one person in particular.
I just don't understand, one moment I think this person likes me and the next moment this person completely ignores me. I know at first I was standoffish because I was scared. I am not the kind of person to "fall for anyone" but now I am open for whatever happens. The problem is NOTHING is happening except for the occasional flit but nothing else is happening...WHY?? I just wish that I knew. This person told me me that they want to focus on family and school. Why would I be an interference? Why not an addition? It just makes me so frustrated and I don't know why, I AM NOT THIS KIND OF PERSON. I just things worked out for me and not everything else.
Other than that I am pretty content with life and the journey ahead. I know that things are going to be bumpy but I am ready for the roller coaster to come.
