A smile a day keeps people happy!

 People come in and out of our lives on a daily basis; we walk by complete strangers without ever knowing their name or what makes them, well them. Now it’s impossible for everyone to know everyone but maybe we should make an effort to at least smile at the person passing us. It may be what ends up making their day, and who knows maybe save their life. I think my life goal is to meet at least one new person a year, even if I don’t know them for very long. If I make this goal of one person every year and I live to be 90 I will have met 70 new people, because I’m 20 right now. Oh I’m sure I will meet more than two people a year, with my goal of being a teacher, but I mean really get to know the new person I meet. I want to get to know about their family, what they want to do in the future, what scares them, and what makes them happy. Life can filled with ups and downs but I feel even the hardest headed person in the world needs someone to talk to. If we don’t have people to talk to in our lives then I think that’s the saddest thing that can happen to us. We need that contact even if we don’t think we do. I hope to reach this goal of one new person a year, heck I hope to pass it and meet several new people. Maybe no one reads this blog, but maybe someone does. If you do read this then I hope you have at least one person in your life that you trust completely and my challenge for my readers is to go beyond yourself and talk to a stranger and get to know them. Make their day, and who knows maybe you will be the stranger that someone else talks to. Well Have a good night and I hope your thanksgiving holidays are well.

Stress, Stress, oh yeah and More Stress

Ahhhh It seems like everything is just falling in on itself.. the only thing that seems to be constant in my life is my relationship with my boyfriend. If it wasn't for him I think I would be going insane right now. Two jobs, 17 credits of classes, social life, sleep, roommates... its one thing after another. It is a lot, but I found that if I just get a way for a little bit and listen to rock music or other loud noises I seem to calm down quite a bit. Its that whole sense of release, its better then doing other things like drinking or hitting people.. right? For most of my life I have had people walk all over me, well no more nice girl. I'm tired of being the one who compromises all time to make everyone else happy. If I have to start being a bitch then I will. Though I probably will look back at this post and think to myself later that I am acting selfish. Well me in the future who will look back on this post, knock it off its ok to want things for yourself and stand up for yourself once in a while. Grow a pair and do what you want, don't care about other people for once. Be the villain instead of the hero, in this world its almost necessary to be a bit of both. Well Kiddies this is an angry rant, it happens, so my challenge for you is to stand up for yourself  and don't let others step on you.
