Sprinkles, really.

So, I know that these sprinkles are all the same color, and all the same shape but they were super cute and I love dinosaurs so I decided to use them nonetheless. :)

Lately, my thought life has been just like a handful of sprinkles. Scattered, numerous, and different. Please forgive me in advance if my thoughts are jumbled and random, but then again, it is me we're talking about here, and I rarely make any sense. :) So this semester has just started and I love my classes so far. It's a totally weird and different dynamic taking online classes exclusively online.. I am not sure at this point, but I don't think that I will really like not having an actual class to interact in, if there's one thing that I've learned, it's to never judge a book by its cover, so I suppose I'll find out soon enough. For now, I am content with my classes and excited and that's really all that matters. :)

So I've been flipping channels over my day off and apparently there's this show coming out on Mtv called, "The Buried Life" and it really is an interesting concept. Probably the first really worth while show to ever hit Mtv if you ask me. The concept behind this show was that if you only had a limited amount of time to live, what would you do? I know that the thought seems cliche at this point, and that movies like The Bucket List, etc.. etc.. have overpopularized this concept, but it holds such a relevant idea because inwardly, we all have things we want to accomplish in this life. It really got me thinking.. what if we all lived our lives like this on a daily basis? I mean, if you look at it, we really should. We are not omniscient, nor omnipotent. The Bible clearly states that our lives are like a vapor. You never know what day will be your last. I guess the thing that boggles my mind is how we can live the way we live when we are made fully aware, from a very early age that we are not invincible.. I mean, wouldn't you want to make the most of your life? Strive to not have any regrets? Let your loved ones know that you love them, be nice to your neighbors, tell someone that Jesus loves them? Please don't misunderstand me. I am not advocating that we are filled with terror for our lives because they are not certain.. I am simply posing the question, "what if?" That brings me to another thought. Why is it that it takes disaster to make us act like decent human beings? For example, the earthquake in Haiti. It truly grieves my heart to see such an already broken country fall apart. My heart really cries out for the people in Haiti and I have been praying for them and I am so, so touched to see not only our country, but other countries respond to the need and the cry of the Haitians. BUT. That's exactly what got me thinking. Why, why, why does it take a 7.0 earthquake to make us react like humans? We should have already been willing to reach out to a country that was struggling so desperately. Please understand, that I am including myself in this. I know that I also contribute to the problem.. I am vocalizing the random thoughts that are running through this crazy mind. Haha. :)

On another note, my dog Cheerio has been sick. We don't quite know what's wrong with him, but we took him to the vet today and they are running tests. Hopefully we will know by tomorrow, but the poor boy has been throwing up like mad. :( Oh, another random side loop. Family Guy. Have you guys ever seen the show? I don't think that there has ever been a show that I have HATED like I hate Family Guy, but I just do. I'm sorry if I am stepping on toes when I say this, and I am so sorry if you personally watch it, but it is just so.. degrading, and disrespecful, and stupid. The only reason I say it is because there are so many people that I know that watch this program and it just amazes me. Then again, there are many shows that I watch that people can't stand, so, what can I say. Potato, potatoh. :)

Oh, I've discovered something about myself. I've been working out loads lately, and I figured I needed to make a list of my favorite work out songs. I don't know if anyone cares to hear it, but I'm posting it. It's random, I warn ya. :)

* The Pokemon Theme Song (it's really inspiring.. listen to the words!)
* "It's a New Day" by Will.i.Am
* "ABC" by the Jackson 5
* "Please Don't Leave Me" by The Temptations (awesome song)
* Any Family Force Five
* "It's Not Unusual" by Tom Jones (don't ask.. I'm not quite sure I know myself.. haha)
* "Wolf Like Me" by TV on the Radio
* "I'm Not Your Toy" by LaRoux
* "Sleepyhead" by Passion Pit
* Any Black Eyed Peas
* Any Beyonce (woman power, seriously! She rocks, I don't care what anyone says.. lol)
* "Yeah Yeah" by Matt and Kim
* " Dance Hall" by Modest Mouse
* "Baby by Me" by 50 Cent (I know.. that is so out there.. and random.. but it's catchy.. haha!)
* Any Justin Timberlake (a workout playlist is not complete without him.. you know you secretly love him)

That's just to name a few. Haha. Ok, so on a closing note, I know this has been horribly, horribly scatterbrained of me.. I am so sorry that you have to make sense of my jumbled mind and God bless you if you have actually read this whole blog.. I love you! You guys are AWESOME. :)

P.S.- Somehow, someone switched the channel just now and Robin Williams is doing stand up. It is horrible. Please don't ever watch it. Love him as an actor..... not so much as a comedian. The End. :)
