"voila! "....."Viola!"... "did you just say viola?"

It is 12:22 and I have just recently returned home. I was at the play "The Surprise" tonight.

It was brilliant. I helped with the set for a while earlier in the week so it was nice to finally see the finished product. It was grand.
After I waited to get my mandolin and see Anthony who was in the play. We stood around in the hardly lit field and had no idea where to go or what to do.
We ended up going to his grandparents house where his sister already was and his brother and friend Dan were to show up alittle later. His family probably thinks I am the all time most random person ever. I will randomly show up at the most obscure times. I guess it's only as weird as they allow their minds to make it.

It is so strange lately that when I spend time with friends I seem to never know where to go or what to do so I end up being whisked from place to place as my guest seems fit, or I convince a friend to go somewhere due to one of my "brilliant ideas" which end up being completely empty and far from brilliant.
I suppose it is good practice for me to commit to spending time with people and having no initial plan on what to do. It has led to me and my friends to find some of the greatest places and doing some of the greatest times.
Or as in the case of Friday night, I get my foot bruised by a shopping cart tipping and falling on to my foot while someone is riding in it. My foot is now bruised and I cant wear flip flops. This means I must wear either shoes or go barefoot. I would prefer the latter but that is sometimes impractical.

I guess the entire point of this post is to point out how completely strange I am when it comes to hanging out these days. Soon I will be able to put together the greatest plans in the shortest amount of time possible. Of course the things I deem great are not what most other people deem great. If I work on my persuasion skills, I will be able to convince anyone to find things to be as equally brilliant as I do. I have really nothing more to say.

Oh observation worth noting: laughing at peoples jokes no matter how lame they may be is always a great thing. It is worth taking the time to perfect a fake laugh. :]

the nicest thing

just some thoughts.......

I posted this link to my facebook a few days ago in a note. I also wrote a sentence about how sad it is that this is how every girl feels at one point in their life.

My friend Dan brought up the note a few days later when I saw him. He asked me about it and remarked on how sad it is. I told him that girls tend to feel this way at least once and any girl who feels this way and wants this is also willing to give this in return.

I was listening to it today and I made a sobering realization.
I think the emotion and longing in this song shows a bit of God's heart toward us.
I read in a book about how males and females show the different sides of God's whole person.
That God has the strength and want of adventure of men and the emotion and desire to care for people and things like women.
It made me realize that this song kinda shows a piece of God's heart for us.
This may seem sacrilegious but bear with me.
Listen to the lyrics. Truly think about it. God wants to be that person. He wants to be the reason we are in the world and obviously we are that person for Him. He wants us to not be able to sleep or eat without Him, to think about Him right before we go to sleep.

TO guys this might seem weird, but to girls it should make you realize that God desires the safe devotion and longing from us as we desire at times.

Please tell me this makes sense. It makes sense to me, and it makes me love God more and more.

:]


"The Nicest Thing"

All I know is that you're so nice
You're the nicest thing I've seen
I wish that we could give it a go
See if we could be something

I wish I was your favourite girl
I wish you thought I was the reason you are in the world
I wish my smile was your favourite kind of smile
I wish the way that I dressed was your favourite kind of style

I wish you couldn't figure me out
But you always wanna know what I was about
I wish you'd hold my hand
When I was upset
I wish you'd never forget
The look on my face when we first met

I wish you had a favourite beauty spot
That you loved secretly
'Cause it was on a hidden bit
That nobody else could see
Basically, I wish that you loved me
I wish that you needed me
I wish that you knew when I said two sugars,
Actually I meant three

I wish that without me your heart would break
I wish that without me you'd be spending the rest of your nights awake
I wish that without me you couldn't eat
I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to sleep

Look, all I know is that you're the nicest thing I've ever seen
And I wish that we could see if we could be something
Yeah I wish that we could see if we could be something

they will see us waiting from such great heights......

Frustration...
Anxiety...
and Stress are the story of my life right now, yet through it all I am learning so much about myself and other around me right now. It's amazing!
I love when people come over to my house and talk with me till the morning hours.
It is honestly one of the greatest things.
I love when you can talk and really connect with people.
Today was a good day. I worked this morning then helped my mom wash windows. Ania then came over and surprised me with a great gift. It was a sort of picture collage of Ireland pictures.

Softball tonight was fun. I didn't play the first two games, but I played the 3rd game. My playing certainly was nothing spectacular but it was fun nonetheless.
Dan and Chloe came over after for pizza and Dan stayed till pretty late and we just talked. My kitchen is the best place. I always have the best conversations with friends in the kitchen.
I'm not really sure where I am going with this.
Tomorrow should be a great day.
I am hopefully going to open gym early in the afternoon. Then I am having a night of utter enjoyment with Jessica. We plan to get some Chinese food, visit the House Cafe, buy some tea and have some time of amazing deep conversation.

I fear I have no great thoughts or quotes or anything of the such. Sadly.

I'm seriously thinking of putting together a book now, I even have my idea. This is great.

I'm sitting on my glorious front porch right now. I was working on economics homework but have momentarily stopped due to frustration. Where the devil am I to find the average cost of 5 lb. of flour? My neighbors across the street keep randomly shooting off fireworks. Not the pretty fountain kinds mind you, but rather the extremely loud obnoxious ones that really have no purpose at all other than to be loud and annoying. I keep hearing "Uh-oh.....*whistle sound* *POW*.
I don't understand at all why they keep saying "uh-oh" every time they set one off but I also don't get why they are setting them off in the first place.

I completely forgot what I was blogging for just now.
Darn it!!
BAHAHAHAHA this older white guy just stopped at the stop sign by my house and was listening to rap music all loud. Ha!

Omgsh he just went by again... I think he was lost or lets hope so.
I'm starting to get attacked by mosquitoes. I suppose I should go inside.
Well this was completely pointless.


Oh I feel like painting or sketching and am looking for ideas....hmmm
