The best years of your life







We are wild and young
We have just begun

So slow it down you move a little too fast
You take a deep breath, you make this last
These should be the best days of your life
So right, so right, tonight

I said we are wild and young
Oh, we are wild and young

Well, her free fall came a little out of the blue

What happened to the days of doing what we wanted to do?

I really, really like this song. A lot. 
I think it inspired me to write this because, well, 
because people my age are taking life way too seriously. 
So many have recently been getting engaged, married, 
thinking about children. 
We have our whole lives to do this! Why now? 
Can't we just take our time? 
What's the rush? 

I know people always say 
"Well, we don't live forever." 
Yeah, I know that. Thanks. 
But still, we do have a life 
so let's LIVE IT!   
A "friend" of mine got married this summer. 
Before we even started our senior year. 
Why? 
Because she's crazy. As is her "husband." 
So weird. 
But seriously.. why now? 
Don't you just want to live? We're young, let's act young! 

"We are wild and young." 
The guy in this song is like me. 
What is the point of settling down right now 
when we're just going to uproot ourselves 
and find jobs. 
Now, we can worry about just us 
instead of us plus one. 

We need to live like it's our last day, every day  
to its fullest. 
I'm just afraid that by settling down early
these people are missing out on some many things. 
We're in college! Let's experience it. 

                 I really like this quote: 

Not to sound corny or anything, but it's true. 
These people are missing out on some 
important rights of passage. 
It's college. Come on. Seriously?

I'm on the Radio


For real, this girl right here is on the radio.
I have own radio show!
Every Monday, from 6:00-7:00 PM
If you want to listen, go http://www.kwar.org/
and click listen live. It's a hoot.
My friend and I talk about awesome things
and we're quite hilarious.

We talk about Justin Bieber a lot.
Mostly because he's hilariously awful.

That was all I had to say.

Nerd Convention





Okay, I know that might sound a little mean, but seriously. 
I'm sitting in a lounge, which is for STUDYING and these people.. 
only to be classified as strange, nerdlike, or annoying (pick one) congregate 
in the middle of this lounge. Where I am trying to do my homework. 


The way this one girl talks just drives me crazy. She sounds like she's permanently congested. 

Oh my dear lord, they're clucking like chickens. God help me. 

If I prayed, do you think they'd go away?

What I think is funny is that they were dissing Homecoming, while here I sit, with my 
Homecoming committee shirt on, representing the very thing they're making fun of. 
Oh wait! Now they're making fun of Minnesota accents. Awesome. What jerks.


There are five of them, four girls and one guy. The nasally girl, one in a hat 
(when it's 70 degrees outside) and way too bright of a sweater, the loner girl who doesn't talk, the ring leader, and the guy. 


Oh wait, they left so it's all good. I guess that mean I should get back to my homework. 
I missed most of their conversation because I was distracted by a person, who has very nice teeth. Seriously, I can't believe how nice his teeth are. That's the first thing I notice about him every time. Strange. 


He told me to stop being so mean. Sorry, but it's true. They are very annoying/strange people (the group, not nerds in general). Actually, to be quite honest, I'm sort of a nerd. But these people weren't nerd-like, just annoying. So happy Chris? I apologized. 


I suppose I should get back to my homework, since I got to rant about stupid people. 


Do you like how I go from serious blog to fun blog to whatever the hell I feel like it blog? yeah, me too.

The Only Exception



Maybe I know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
Keep a straight face
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now
I had sworn to myself that I'm
Content with loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk

- Paramore, The Only Exception 



I know the above song lyric doesn't match the picture, 
but I really like both of them a lot. 
That lyric speaks more to me than the rest of the song 
since I have not found that "only exception" that hayley sings about. 
And the picture just makes sense to me, 
this man gave up everything he had for this one person, 
and he got shot down. He lost everything. 
Which is unfortunate. 
Do you ever feel that way, like you give everything up for one thing 
and then it falls through? 
I've put myself in this man's place many times. 
I've put myself out there, for everyone to see 
and just get disappointed. 
And the thing about life is that you have to keep doing this
over and over and over again. 
That's just the way it is. 
Sometimes I just wish things were different, you didn't have to be 
vulnerable 
and susceptible to others say and just live your own life. 
But that's impossible. 
If you've found a way to do that, then you should let me know. 
I'm always open to suggestions.
