Now See Here

I won't do this often. I've already told you the majority of the posts found on this blog will be rants. Today is different. I found something I want to show you guys. Her name is Emma and her blog is www.twoheartsbeat.tumblr.com. I like it, its good. Go read it kids.

THE DENTISTS OFFICE SMELLS SO GROSS!! (that's where I am right now. I hate it.)

Anyway. I am tired of Dwayne Johnson. Isn't he EVERYWHERE? I don't go to the movies to see the same guy on two different posters. It's just annoying! Go away! It actually reminds me a little of Miley Cyrus. It's just that Miley has 3 careers and Dwayne has 1. He's just EVERYWHERE. It annoys me. It's not nice to put an annoying actor in every other movie. I don't like it. Go die in a hole, Dwayne Johnson.

So back to the dentist. I do not like it at all. The only part I remotely like is the clean teeth part. The rest is crap. Straight up. Why does the dentist have to torture us so?

This is the end of the line.
That's all, folks!

Dating: This Is the End (If You Want It)

[Thar be paaaart three be a blowin'! *end pirate talk* This is part three: This Is the End (If You Want It)]

Unless you're homer or marge simpson, you're going to broken up with/break up with someone. Not all men are the perfect catch, which is why you need to prepare yourself.
     Lesson 1: But I Don't Want To Hurt Him! That's what you tell yourself when you try to justify when you don't break it off with your crappy boyfriend. My social studies teacher actually taught us how to break up. This is how it's done: you need three reasons. Not for yourself. Not for him. But for your friends. Rule #1 is to come out looking like the good guy, so make up three reasons why your significant other is not good. You also need to come out with a clear consience. Think of it this way: if you're breaking up in the first place, that obviously means you aren't right for each other. So Mr. Whoever will find a girl out there who is better than you (in his mind).
     Lesson 2: Forget and Not Slow Down. So you've been dumped, have you? I find the best way to cope can be found in a song by Relient K. "I'd forget and not slow down than gather regret for the things I can't change now." Dwelling on that ex-lover is NOT HEALTHY. The best way to get over someone is to remind yourself that eventually, a better guy will come along and you're better without that old guy anyway. I mean, c'mon! He dumped you for crying out loud. Take it with your head held high, but keep it out of the clouds.
     In closing, I don't understand why breakups are so sad. The fact of the matter is that because this guy broke up with you, a better one is on it's way, and cause you already know what you aren't looking for, finding the right guy becomes that much easier.

This concludes the post of loosely tied thoughts and bad transitions.

That's all, folks!

iFail.

I accidentally ripped the letter lee sent me when I was opening. She addressed it upsidedown. This letter is made of fail. Except for the letter part. Maybe just Lee and I are fails.

Dating: DO NOT CROSS. Trespassers Will Be Shot

[so this is becoming a series. I'm quite proud of myself for keeping up this commitment. Although, FYI, I will be posting other things in between. This is part two: DO NOT CROSS. Trespassers Will Be Shot.]

Ah, boundaries. We all know of something or other that is a boundary for us. It may be a curfew or it could be a stupid school rule. Everyone comes in contact with them, and without boundaries, the world would be chaos. But how do boundaries relate to relationships? Simple. You need them in relationships.
     The biggest one you will come across is how far you're willing to go. (yes, I do mean in terms of sex.) It's a simple issue of knowing how far you're going to go before you get there. What seems to be the problem to me is that in today's society, boundaries like that are extremely rare, and usually the person who sets them up is "religious" in some way. Like with me, I will not let my current boyfriend kiss me. Now, if we stay together long enough I will but for now, no. I don't see it as appropriate, and it's my boundary.
     My parents believe in boundaries, too. Today I went to the doctor and she asked my mom if she wanted me to get the Gardasil vaccine. My mom said no because the only way to get cervical cancer is through sex, and if I'm going to stay abstinent why get 3 painful injections? It doesn't make any sense. There really is no legitimate reason to have sex before marriage. At all.
     But then there are those relationships you come across where the girl sets up boundaries and the guy whines and complains about them. At this point one of 2 things usually happen. Either the girl caves to her boyfriend's wishes or she dumps him. So boundaries can also help weed out men that aren't worth it.
     This is my advice to all you women out there: figure out your boundaries. What's too far and what isn't? What's too far for YOU and what isn't? If your man doesn't respect your boundaries let him go. I think doing and knowing these things will lead to better more intimate relationships.

So there you have it. Part 2. Too bad I forgot to put a part in there about what's pure, what really isn't, and what sex should be. Oh well.

That's all, folks!

Dating: Ideas on Relationships.

[today I'll begin what I hope becomes a series about dating and relationships and guys and what those things mean to me. This part one: Ideas on Relationships.]

Dating. It's something that is close to central to a persons life from around middle school till marriage. Initially, you usually see relationships start to happen in the 6th/7th grade. There were even a couple "couples" in 5th for me. (I wasn't in them, I just knew other people that were) But were they real? Not hardly. Young love, the kind experienced 5th-7th grade, is, more often than not, not real. I may seem like that, but it is far from it. Now, it does start to develop more realism as you get older and are in more relationships.
     For example, the first relationship I was ever in was with this guy named Andrew. It lasted for a little over 2 weeks and I can safely say that it was not real. It felt very real to me at the time, but c'mon, it was my first "real" boyfriend. That was back in 6th grade. Which just goes to show that middle school relationships are usually not real. This causes them to not last very long.
     Back to my first boyfriend- originally, I had told myself that I wasn't going to date until high school because I didn't think relationships were right at that age. I STILL struggle with that, but back to the point. I asked him out anyway because I said to myself that if I didn't do it now it would never happen. So I did it. I didn't tell my parents, of course, because they would disapprove even though they'd never said anything. And I think dating is one of those things where it's your decision to say if you're ready for it or not. I have a friend who turned down a guy because she said she wasn't ready to date. Which is perfectly fine with me.

Alright. We've reached the end of today's rope. Hopefully I was somewhat insigtful today.

That's all, folks!
