"If you want the stick back that bad, YOU jump in the water for it"

So still reading Marley & Me and this quote stuck out to me because it not only applies to dogs it can apply to everyone. Well, different circumstances of course but you know what I’m talking about. I like this quote because I know that most of the time I don't like speaking for myself, and my sister gets really mad at me for it so all I hear is "jeez Mariah, speak for yourself for once" but sometimes if I really need something I actually get it for myself basically. But can't there sometimes be difficulties to that? What if you really want something but it’s like halfway across the ocean? For example My friend 'accidently' broke one of my bracelets that my uncle got me from Japan and I really loved that bracelet but I simply can't get a new one because first of all like my parents would let me and how in the world would I get the money for it? Okay well yeah get a job or just go to a local oriental store, but I don't know I like making things difficult I guess? I want one just like my last one, anything else simply just can't do. Kind of went off topic, bleh, so sue me (:

What is media?

when i was younger I used to think media was just T.V, Internet, music, movies, and newspapers. and its true i think we are all so blinded by the media that we don't see it anymore. I learned that media is influential, and it can endorse things, media is everywhere and it can change our lives, how? well if there was no media for instance we wouldn't of got the news so fast or if we see a person that has a certain logo printed on it you feel as if you had to get one too to "go with the crowd" media could be good or it could be bad but in the end it will never go away because we rely to heavily on it.

So current book i'm reading is called Marley and Me, still at the beginningish and pretty much what i can relate from the book right now is the first time the author describes Marley I imagine Marley looking so much like my new dog Buttercup. From the clumsyness to the sharp teeth. Also the way Marley has tiny legs and huge paws. This book is definitly a book for dog lovers.

roller coasters (:

for Bianca who told me to post it on here. [:

Dating guys are like riding in an emotional roller coaster. Right before you get asked, you stand and wait in line behind any other regular person wanting to ride too. Finally, I’m at the front of the line, question time, am I ready? Of course! So I climb on, “This is going to be a crazy ride,” people try to warn me, but of course no one ever listen to the wise ones do they? “Bleep,” the horn blares and I’m off. I feel butterflies beginning to flutter in my stomach as I’m lifted higher and higher, as I’m pulled to a stop I take the time to breathe in the fresh the morning air, MMM, smells like strawberries, I’m thinking. But the sudden drop brings me back to my senses, I’m experiencing my first fight, at first I’m a little scared and confused, but that quickly changes as I regain composure and try to set things right. The roller coaster twist and turns then I’m brought to a loopty loop and everything is set right again. I smile at the thought everything is going to be all right not noticing that the ride is increasing speed and gaining height really fast. I see the deep plunge ahead of me and panic I close my eyes and hold on to the handle bars really tight. Five second later my eyes are open and people are instructing me to get up and turn to my left. In the end I made a promise to myself that I’m sticking to carousels.

*FYI!: This was assigned to me in 8Th grade when we had to write analogy's an anything that came to mind including our senses of smells & alliterations.

I don't know, think what you want. Don't be to harsh.

seven colors of the rainbow

Roy G Biv also known as the rainbow [ Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet ] Pretty colors huh? What a lot of people don't know though is that these unique colors are energy levels that the solar panels we use convert them into sources that is very beneficial to us.

the good life?

"The truth is we know nothing, not where our cars will fail or when our buses will stall, whether our places of employment will be there when we arrive, or wether in fact, we ourselves will arive whole and alive at the end of our journeys. Life is pure adventure, and the sooner we realize that. the quicker we will be able to treat life as art: to bring all our energies to each encounter, to remain flexible enough to notice and admit when what we expect to happen did not happen. We need to remember that we are created creative and can invent new scenarios as frequently as they are needed"
-Maya Angelou

Okay, so that quote is really long, but it i liked it because she talks about how people live there life expecting, when in life you can't really expect anything because no one can tell the future, the future is something untold about and uncalled for.
