You know, this world kinda stinks sometimes? Wanna know why? Because kids can't even really be 'kids' anymore! Don't you remember going to parks and playing for hours on the swings and slides, building sand castles, playing tag or even boys chase girls for heaven's sake?! Those days were SO fun. I remember not having a care in the world! The only thing that mattered was who mommy was going to let me play with that day... and of course what kind of sandwich I would have for lunch. (personally, I had a buttered bread and a buttered toast everyday...:) ) Now though, things for kids aren't so fun. Sure they go out and play with friends and maybe make it to the park to play occasionally but it seems to me like the world is trying to squish out all the innocent left in them. I mean the other day I heard some little girls talking about calorie intake! What the heck!? I didn't even know what a calorie was when I was that age! (I just pretend not to know now... haha) I used to play dress up with my sisters when we were younger but it was almost always a contest to see who could look the goofiest, and now there are shows like
Toddlers in Tiaras where crazy parents dress and make up their kids for competition! What is this world coming too? Sure its fun to "dress pretty" and to "wear mommy's make up" and all that but how the kids see it now is just ridiculous. And mind you, I'm only 18 years old so a lot has changed in a short period of time! It's kind of sad...
But since we all know that complaining doesn't help in anyway, guess what I've been doing lately? Being very childish. It's almost as if I'm trying to live a child's life for those who don't/can't and honestly I'm having so much fun. Just in the past week I've been more of a happy-go-lucky child than anything, much less a college student! Here's what I did: I've gone to a book store and read children's books, played with toys at Walmart, bought suckers, and painted those little sunlight catchers that you can get at craft stores! Wanna hear the best part? I've done all of those things with a date! Right now I feel super lucky because not only do I have someone that cares about me in a deep mature way, I have someone that will be a child with me all the time.
Girls, if you can find someone like that, keep him! I know I plan to!
Boys, be that guy. ;)
Everyone, live life to it's fullest. Even if you're not a child, it's never too late to have some fun. Don't miss out on all the fun parts of life because you're trying to be "like everyone else" or "mature and responsible". Even the most mature and responsible people know that letting loose and having fun is a necessity of a full life. Lets all have some fun! :D
weeks.. months... ok a really long time. Which is weird because I have school and homework and a fantastic boyfriend but I feel like I am always online! Some of you may feel the exact same way. Wanna hear what I do online all the time. Well here's a small list: Facebook, Iwastesomuchtime, Pintrest, Email, Dearelder, etc, etc, etc. Not to mention this blog! Why in the world is the world so focused on the media, dang it?! The things I look at definitely aren't even worth the time I spend on here. But what to do? Make a goal to not be online so much? Yeah tried that. Toss my computer? Somehow I don't think that will be very beneficial in the long run. Run and hide? I think that seems to be my best option as of right now... Though, ideally, probably still not that great. Maybe the only thing to do is to stay exactly where I am and just complain to the rest of the online world about how I wish I wasn't online all the time. Hey, yeah that sounds perfect! Yup, thats my plan of action. If you want me, now you know where I may be. Until next time!
