happy stupidgiving.
i really don't get the point of stuffing your stomach and stretching it way beyond its point for the satisfaction of a meal that's 3 times what you should be eating. i guess i just don't enjoy eating at all; i see it more as something you have to do in order to get other things accomplished. it also doesn't help i've gotten sick during this break and i really need to get a whole list of things done by monday. cleaning my room, stretching/exercising, breaking in shoes, translating a french paper, making the final plans for my new bedroom i'm now doing on my own..things of that nature. i still think oasis is amazing. seriously, there are only about 5 bands that whenever i hear something by them, i automatically get in a better mood. oasis is one of them, as well as pele and the rest of the hives. another thing i'm "thankfucl" for besides a hot ass lead singer and two bickering brothers is the fact that my family isn't really a family. now, that might sound horrible or odd, but really, it's one of the easiest relationships ever. we keep in touch with most of our family with phone calls every 4 months or so, i visit once a year for maybe a week and a half, and then for the rest of the remaining days, i have no clue what's going on. at home, my dad is emmersed in everything country and his friends and numerous "errands" he continues to go on. my mother has become a work-aholic and is usually out having dinners or on business. the dogs are pretty self sufficent since they all know the usual routine of things. then there's me. i'm in charge of when i eat, what i eat, if i do my homework, how much time i spend on things, whether i go to stuff my parents are paying for. nothing is forced, which is maybe why i'm usually apathetic and a procrastinator, but at the same time, that in turn has forced me to take advantage of the opportunities in front of me without having someone saying i have to do whatever it may be. i don't know really what i'm trying to get across with that, but it makes sense to me. i have my parents trust, which is probably a symptom of them knowing i won't waste their money and they really don't want to know what i'm up to anyway. cool with me. basically that's the only thing i'm thankful for. oh, and also the fact that i'm not terminally ill or paralyzed or anything sucky. tonight for dinner my mother and i are having pasta, wine, and pumpkin pie while watching tv and eating off of each other's sick plates. thank god merlin isn't home.
later days. much.
:EDIT:
alright so a stupid comment train has been going around myspace and i would like to vent on the matter with why i disagree with how a friend should act.
FAKE FRiENDS: Never ask for food.
REAl FRiENDS: are the reason you have no food.
what the hell? seriously, i get when you are like "hey, do you have anything i can eat?" and then you give your friends something, but i have never had anyone just walk into my house and start chowing down, nor have i ever done that to anyone else. frankly, that's really rude, not to mention, really invasive of someone's privacy. thank god i have fake friends because if real friend showed up at my house, merlin would cast all sorts of spells on their ass.
FAKE FRiENDS: Call your parents Mr/Mrs
REAl FRiENDS: Call your parents DAD/MOM
that's just weird. if i didn't come from you, you aren't my dad or my mom. don't call my parents yours either. you've got a set and so do i, just like a toothbrush. you don't share toothbrushes, so you don't share parent names. and it's disrespectful "real" friends.
FAKE FRiENDS: bail you out of jail and tell you what you did was wrong.
REAl FRiENDS: Would sit next to you sayin "Damn ... we fucked up ... but that shit was fun!"
i wouldn't call someone who was sitting in jail with you after committing a felony a real friend, since they probably didn't have a clue in the first place that you will now have to go to a court hearing, have your parents spend money, and your social life has now been docked until god knows when. if i'm fake, i'm sorry, but i'll bail your ass out and then tell you how damn stupid that really was. think of it as preparing you for the ass-kicking when you get home.
FAKE FRiENDS: never seen you cry.
REAl FRiENDS: cry with you
alright i agree with this one.
FAKE FRiENDS: Borrow your stuff for a few days then give it back.
REAl FRiENDS: keep your shit so long they forget its yours.
certainly i don't steal things from people. if you want something of mine, instead of just borrowing it and never seeing it again, i usually just let you keep it. but i don't think i've borrowed much stuff and knowing that i need to give it back haven't. usually i have it and then the other person is just like "eh whatever, i didn't want it anyway". so, give my stuff back if i have confronted you about it, and if i don't confront you, it should be understood i gave it to you.
FAKE FRiENDS: know a few things about you.
REAl FRiENDS: Could write a book about you with direct quotes from you.
who would want a book of inside jokes?
FAKE FRiENDS: Will leave you behind if that is what the crowd is doing.
REAl FRiENDS: Will kick the whole crowds ass that left you.
i'm into slient protests or sarcasm. this whole "ass kicking" thing isn't very friendly, it just shows the crowd once again why they didn't hang out with either of you. and a crowd is usually way bigger than 3 other people.
FAKE FRiENDS: Would knock on your front door.
REAl FRiENDS: Walk right in and say "I'M HOME!"
you didn't buy my house. neither did anyone in your family. nor are you fred flintstone. therefore, you better knock, or else i'll get creeped out just like that kid from next door who was sitting in my living room when i got home from school two years ago. shit like that doesn't fly.
FAKE FRiENDS: Are for awhile.
REAl FRiENDS: Are for life.
well that's a given.
FAKE FRiENDS: will talk shit to the person who talks shit about you.
REAl FRiENDS: Will knock them the fuck out
violence? really, if someone talks shit about one of my friends, i'll listen and then either tell you if i think you think it's funny or not tell you because you don't need to hear some stupid rumor that no one else believes anyway. i'm not going to hit the person because hey, where else would i get the other rumors about other people to laugh with my friends about? duh, politics.
FAKE FRiENDS: Would ignore this
REAl FRiENDS: Will send this to all there real
friends and hope to get it back!
well first of all, my real friends don't change tenses in a sentence, nor do they misuse the word "there". oh yeah, and they aren't fans of !
later days. much.
