Youth! I love me some youth. Not in a creepy, pedophile way, but youth GROUP. It's so amazing sometimes. Anyway, I found out today that I like spinach, because it is delicious. Yay trying new things! Tomorrow is lettuce round two, today I tried it with olives and ranch, and it was kinda nasty. Anyway, the following have been added to the list of acceptable country songs
Better Life
I Run to You
Yep, that's it. And any hated songs...
...Well there aren't any. (although beer for my horses almost made this list)
I don't know why I'm in such a good mood lately. Maybe it's the whole eating better thing(although it's only really been making me hungry and tired), but I think it's the letting go of irrational hatreds that I have, and finding myself a bit. Not to sound cheesy, but isn't that kinda what college is about? Shoot, I just remembered all my clean pants I left at home. Oh well. Quick edit, I'm adding something below to the accepted list that just came on.
Lookin' For a Good Time
Me Gusta Lady Antebellum. Help, I'm turning into a country fan!

Country Music Update
So this whole "country music week" has kinda been alright. I've already cheated (I listened to my iPod on the way to work) but listening to different music makes me appreciate my favorites all the more. Anyway, so far I have selected a few songs that I enjoy, hereby ending my hatred of country music.
Barefoot, Blue Jean Night
I Told You So
Austin
Honeybee
When I Get Where I'm Going
Online (HILARIOUS)
What Was I Thinkin'
I Don't Want This Night To End (stuck in my head ALL DAY)
So I don't think I'll add any of these to my iPod, but they are perfectly ok in my country playlist. I'm going to keep listening to the radio, because it's the best way to hear newer songs, but this list will keep my sanity. Alternatively, here is my, O-M-G-This-Is-Like-Rebecca-Black-And-Justin-Beiber-Had-A-Baby, list.
Camoflage
Yep. It's the only one. The rest could be categorized as Eh, a category I would put things like ET and Alejandro. They're not really good, but you can listen to them. I'll be sure to keep the list update.
One more word on Camoflage. IF IT PLAYS ONE MORE TIME I'M BREAKING THE RADIO. I really don't like it. It's annoying. I can be allowed to hate at least one song, right? Eh, I shouldn't say that, there will be more.
I haven't really started on all the Will Ferrel movies I have to watch. I'll get there. But I hold all of my dislike to Anchorman as recent. I will attempt other movies.
So, today was alright, not the best. I could have killed Cole though... Oh, yeah and something happened at work that was pretty funny.
Wes: You got your hands up, you're rocking in my truck
(By now, I'm mouthing the lyrics)
Wes: You got the radio on, you're singing every song
(now I start to sing under my breath)
Me: I'm set on cruise control, I'm slowly losing hope.
Without me noticing, Wes had heard me, and stopped singing
Wes: I thought you didn't like country?
Hence why it was stuck in my head. Alright. I'm going to bed because I'm tired. Tomorrow, I'm typing a paper.

Shoot, I forgot...
I tried lettuce today and I didn't totally hate it. Tomorrow I'm going to try to have a salad. I'm scared of things that are green. In an effort to try new things, I will spend the next week listening to only Country music (except for Wednesday because that's youth) to essentially force myself to see that it isn't all bad. The week after that is rap (someone please save my sanity that week).
I don't want to do this blog...
...but I'm gonna anyway. I'm totally not in the mood. I just hope I don't upset anyone with my words, as is the precedent. I... don't feel like I'm well-liked anymore. And these aren't just my, hey-Erick-hear-those-people-whispering-over-there-it's-about-you kinda paranoia I have constantly. No one gives a flip what I have to say anymore. I'm just not feeling it anymore. It's definitely a failing on my part, or at least I think so. I don't know what about me is so off-putting, besides my label of judger, but if you want to enlighten me in a non-mean way, you should definitely text me.
Anyway, I'm just feeling really cruddy right now. I also think I have a different perspective on judging. I take it this way, it stops me from doing things I shouldn't. If I wasn't worried that Matt would judge me, I probably would have gone to Alex's and drank. How's that for bombshell? I was feeling pretty much the same I am now and wanted to do it really badly. And it's Matt's theoretical judgement that stopped me from trying to be accepted in the car by swearing. So, in short, I'm thankful for that. BTW if I ever try to drink, feel free to punch me, granted I said that about flat-bills once upon a time.

Ok, I guess. (begin life changing event)
So I bought a hat. A hat not many people like. But I like it.
It's flat-billed.
I didn't think it was possible to feel physical pain from a comment, but I guess what they say is true. A particular someone said something particularly hurtful. I was sad.
But now I'm over it.
Why? Because I'm sick of not doing the things that I want to do. I want to not procrastinate. But I do it. The reverse is also true. I came literally this close )( those are my fingers by the way, to going to Alex's party. Why? I honestly don't know. I just wanted so bad to do something that I didn't really want to do. So now I've formed a game plan.
Lastly, I don't think this hat is going anywhere, because I don't care what you think anymore. If you don't like me because of the hat, well, I don't like you either.

Excellence
I am not trying hard enough.
Tonight at youth, we talked about a lot of things, and it got me thinking. I hate going there sometimes. Today, Wendy asked if anyone would have stood up to the giants (Joshua and Caleb in Numbers) and I was instantly nominated by three people. It hurts, especially when I definitely don't ever stand up to giants. I feel like how everyone sees me isn't right. I hate how Melanie looks up to me like I'm so religious. I hate how I feel every single time I have to agree when all I want to do is ask why. I give religious answers I don't necessarily believe, but that's what the Bible says, so it has to be right. I really don't want anyone to look to me as role model, because I'm doing a crappy job.
Should I try more? Do I even feel the same anymore? I don't know. I've asked myself what my reasons are for this whole thing. I grew up with God looming over my head. Is all I want salvation? I don't know. All I know is I have to keep moving, otherwise I'm dead in the water.
Stupid college. I didn't think before this. I hate it when Wendy is right.

.........
I'm tired. I really need sleep. The only thing keeping me going this week is going to Matt's play. Whoopee. Can you read the sarcasm? I bought a new xbox, but I should have bought a wii. I want to play Just Dance. This is totally stream-of-concience thought right now. No, I don't replace now with meow. Bleh. It's only 8. I'm gonna watch hulu videos now. Bye.

Facebook, squids, and a single roll
So today internet finally started working again. I hate Simpson internet. Surprisingly, that's all I can complain about lately. I've gotten over not having people to hang out with. It's not really that big of a deal as before. I know I could go hang out with people now, I just have no desire to. I'm just bored. Anyway...
I have to do some Facebook crap for class tomorrow, which I will be promptly ditching to go shopping with Mom and Jenna. Why, you ask? Because I wanna. That's right, in college, you can skip because you want to. I'm going Christmas shopping, which is quite exciting. Yay, Christmas (and people coming back) I can't wait for break. It will be awesome.
Today, I dissected... scratch that, watched someone dissect a squid (because I didn't want to do the work, and my lab partner is waaaaaay to good at stuff like that).
After that I rushed to work, and by rushed I mean I walked listening to fast tempo music. When I got there, Larry was cooking rolls. Suddenly, God performed a miracle, and Larry asked if I would like one fresh out of the oven, and he then proceded to give all the employees one. With angels playing in the background, the good night continued, and he COMPLEMENTED me. Ode to Joy started playing out of thin air, I kid you not. Best work ever! Also, it had nothing to do with the fact that Wes messed up a lot (okay, yeah it does).
