Inspired by Allison Case and Polyphonic Spree

I'm a firm believer in now. I mean, what could be better than this? As horrible as it is. "Follow the day and reach for the sun." I'm a big fan of what's to come as well. I like nature. You know when you have one of those days where you just lay out in the grass and pick flowers and the sun is warm and you're comfortable and free. That's my kind of day. And people, yes I like people a lot. I mean, animals are nice too. And music, I like music a lot. I think it communicates better than words or anything. I can't say what I'm feeling but just listen to a couple of my favorite songs and maybe you'll get it. I make playlists almost every day so at any time I can look back to an old playlist and see how I was feeling in that moment. I like art too. Expression is so big for me. But I don't necessarily like traditional art, I like anything that allows feeling. And I like intelligent discussion and I try to be intelligent so I can take part in as many intelligent discussions as possible. English class is pretty good for that. Sometimes history too, but not as often. And I like God. But I think he's short. And he's put up there as this almighty power and I mean, he's got a pretty good plan, he's organized, but he's flawed. Ever thought of that? Maybe that's why there are these wars. Maybe God's doing the best he can but he's flawed just like the rest of us because he can't be everyone's golden boy so he messes up sometimes. I like helping people. I do that a lot.

Natalie Weiss is AMAZING

So I don't really have much to say that I think people will be interested in right now. A lot of what I write for myself is either a) lists of things I need to do or learn about or b) me complaining about something, or just writing about what's happening in my life. But I'm not famous so I don't really think people will be interested in my life? Tell me if you are and I'll fill you in, but otherwise I think until I get some followers I'll just use this blog to post videos that I like and people who like them too can watch them all here! Hope you enjoy!

Here is my current obsession: Natalie Weiss. This girl has possibly the best voice I've ever heard, EVER! This is just one of her videos, look the rest up on YouTube!

5 Minute Management Course

My friend just sent me this and I found it hilarious:

5 Minute Management Course

Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.

The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.

When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor.

Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'

After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.

The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.

When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'

'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies.

'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'

Moral of the story:

If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

Lesson 2:

A priest offered a Nun a lift.

She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.

The priest nearly had an accident.

After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest removed his hand But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.

The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily

and went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'

Moral of the story:

If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

Lesson 3:

A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.

They rub it and a Genie comes out.

The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'

'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'

Puff! She's gone.

'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'

Puff! He's gone.

'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager.

The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after

lunch.'

Moral of the story:

Always let your boss have the first say.

Lesson 4

An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.

A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'

The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:

To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson 5

A turkey was chatting with a bull.

'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'

'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.

Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree..

Moral of the story:

Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..

Lesson 6

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.

While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.

The dung was actually thawing him out!

He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.

Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Morals of the story:

(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.

(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

THUS ENDS THE FIVE MINUTE MANAGEMENT COURSE

I'm gonna die my hair... green!

So like I said, I'm new at this, buuut, I thought this would be a good thing to blog about! So I guess the title says it all, I dyed my hair green! Well, not all of it, only the tips, but it's a start. Right now it doesn't really look that green but it's still kinda wet so I'm hoping it will look greener when it dries. I may put up pictures soon, assuming it actually turns green. Anyway, that's all for now, I'll try to update soon, although no one's really reading this so I don't think it matters too much. Goodnight!

First Blog Post!

Hi all! So this is my first blog post! Wow! I've never really blogged before, so this is pretty fun! I doubt anyone will read this since I'm not famous or really known in any way, but it's a cool thing to do anyway. =) That's all for now, happy blogging!
