"It is an infantile superstition of the human spirit that virginity would be thought a virtue and not the barrier that separates ignorance from knowledge. - voltaire"

so it's my first time with a blog. my blog-virginity is now gone! hooray! let's see how long i can keep this going before i forget about it. i got the idea from my best friend over at http://jessi-redmond.blogspot.com . she's amazing. you should read her blog, her life's interesting and complicated, unlike mine.

anyways, here goes.
it's summer now, july, warm, sunny (for the most part), is it wrong to expect a lot from summer?

in books and in magazines you read about "THE PERFECT SUMMER" so during the winter, you're all excited for summer to roll around so you can finally experience this "perfect summer" that everyone's talking about. then when summer slowly creeps in, you're like "okay, hit me!" thinking that it will just happen. that you'll have a perfect sunny beachy summer with lots of tanned muscular guys clawing for your attention and that you'll have a blast. just SO. MUCH. FUN.
yeah, sorry, in my experience, it doesn't work that way. i'm lucky if i can get to the beach twice a month, and hell, boys definitely aren't falling over themselves for me (lol, i wish). in life, it doesn't come to you, you have to go and get it. but you can hope, right?

"you can't be too careful anymore, when all that is waiting for you won't come any closer, you've got to reach out a little more." - paramore

that doesn't just apply to summer, it pretty much applies to everything in life. i know you most likely already know this, but hell, i'm a little behind in life experience points. for me, i always used to wait around and hope that things would fall in my lap and my life would be perfect. but through some self-realization, i've come to terms with the fact that i have to go out and get things and earn things myself.

okay. enough ramblings, i guess i'm done for now.
peace.love.ingle.
