RP: Depression.

"Have you ever been in a bad place where you dont wanna do anything or be with anyone? All you wanna do is just sit down and just sit nothing else you feel like your world is coming to an end." -Michael Hulihan

This made me kind of sad. I hate when people feel like this. I've been through it. About more than half the people I know have been depressed at one point or another. Everyone goes through things. Some not as bad as others, but everyone has something bad happen to them. Whether it's a family death, divorce, friend issues, etc. My parents are divorced, and the both don't have jobs, so I'm a little depressed myself at this point. But I have great friends to help me and always remember that things will get better. I gotta quote my boy JB here (:

" I know there's sunshine beyond the rain. I know there's good times beyond that pain." -Justin Bieber

 People need friends when their depressed and some don't have any. I feel bad for those people who have no one to talk to. Their feelings just get bottled up until they explode. Others, use pain to help them through. Like cutting. I've been there, done that, and it's my past. I don't like to think about it at all. I wouldn't recommend doing it to anyone. It doesn't help at all. It's a waste of your time and body. People need help. No one can do it alone. It'll only get worse.

CE: The Suffering of Starvation.

       It's sad isn't it? Yeah, I think so too. There are hundreds of kids around the world that look exactly like this starving child. It's disappointing to me that not a lot of people try to make a difference. Celebrities, who have millions of dollars, don't even try to help. A few do, but not enough to make a change. People don't realize how LUCKY they are to have what they have, things could be worse. 

You may not have the BEST life, but you certainly don't have the worst either. Everyday, these children have to live like this, so every time you go "God man, I feel like I'm starving", YOU'RE NO WHERE CLOSE. Imagine how this child is feeling every day. They probably feel like they'd rather be dead, or they feel disgusting. I found this picture on Tumblr.com, it's a blogging website with touching photos and stuff. When I first saw this, I legit felt like I was going to cry. My eyes watered up and everything. So please, all I'm asking of people is to pray for the people that live like this throughout the world. Maybe you'll think twice about buying that unnecessary cup of coffee from Starbucks, or wasting the rest of your food.

(Free) - Boundaries .

       Personal boundaries are guidelines, rules or limits that a person creates to identify him or herself which they think are reasonable, safe and permissible ways for other people to behave around them and how they will respond when someone steps outside those limits. They define you as an individual. They are statements of what you will do, what you won't do, what you do like and what you don't like... or how close someone can get to you.

Boundaries however, are not always the best things. They can keep you from progressing in life. You can't let your boundaries control you, no matter how much you want to. You need to do different things. Take a risk. Life is a risk, but you can't keep yourself safe by not doing things. That's no fun. Life shouldn't be about worries, I think people should just have fun. There's a quote from a song I really like :

"Everybody dies, but not everybody lives." -Drake (:

 That's really true. Some people go through their lives taking orders & setting boundaries. At some time you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy, and that's how we're made. So you can waste your life drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.

Biweekly (FICTION) : Where Is It ?

        A person is looking for an object in a darkened room 

       I couldn't find it. What you ask? My ring.  I NEEDED TO FIND MY RING. My mother gave it to me just before she passed. It symbolizes that she's always with me no matter what. It was somewhere in my darkened room. I just didn't know where. Daddy had to get the lights turned off because he couldn't pay the bill. I wasn't able to sleep until I found it. Would you like to know the story? Of course you do.

        The room was freezing, so cold i had to wear sweat pants and a sweater and I'd still need the blankets to keep warm. It was terrible. I stood up, feeling everywhere around me so I didn't hurt myself. It was pitch black. I felt blind. I was scared. There was noises coming from outside and I felt a shiver go down my back when I heard the howling of a wolf. I started slowly walking to my dresser. I had hard wood floors, so those made my feet cold also. I felt the smooth wood on my hands. I remembered when I built that dresser with my mom. She let me sand paper it down. I miss her. My heart beat is racing rapidly. I started thinking of the worst case scenarios like "What if I can't find it?" and "What if somebody stole it?". I didn't know what to do.  

       I kept feeling around the top of my dresser. All of a sudden I heard a loud crash & my feet were stinging. I knelt down, the muscles in my legs shaking & tingling. I put my hand on the cold floor, then I felt like something was piercing through my skin. I stood back up & felt my hand, I was bleeding. I've always hated blood, it makes me sick. So, knowing that I was bleeding gave me a lump in my throat & my stomach tied into knots. I felt like I couldn't breathe.

       I checked my desk next. That was the only other place it could be. I felt everywhere. The coldness, the roughness of it's black wood. I went into my basket. I put my hand in it and felt a poke, realizing that's where I keep all my pencils. I go to the bottom of the basket. I feel a circular. MY RING. I found it. Tears run down my cheek like a waterfall. Not tears of pain, tears of joy. The feeling of relief I get is a feeling I'll never forget. The feeling that new parents get knowing they have something that will be with them until they die. Weird comparison, i know. But that isn't the point. The point is I found my ring. 

       I slowly walked back to my bed, layed down, put the warm covers on, and then put on the ring. I held my hand with the ring close on my chest, right by my heart. I close my eyes and whispered:

" I love you, Mom."

RP : Crying .

"I believe that crying doesn't make you a baby at all. Yet it depends on what you're crying about." -Bridget Kim

I agree & disagree with Bridget. I agree in the sense that crying doesn't make you a baby. It shows that you have true feelings for whatever you are crying about & that it really does effect you. Like Bridget also said:

"Let's say you go off on a road trip for couple weeks with your schoolmates and end up crying because you're homesick. That's honestly understandable in my opinion..."

That's a legit reason to cry. You're missing your home. The place that you are used to. I personally know what it feels like first hand. I went on a camping trip and cried because I missed my family and my home. It's weird going from a place you're always at to a place you aren't familiar with. It scares you, not knowing what's going to happen. I was scared, thankfully I had friends to calm me down & tell me I was going to be okay. Of course, I already knew I was going to be okay, it was just nice to have some comfort from people & knowing that they care enough to make me feel better. Soooooooooo , another part of Bridget's post was what she thinks is NOT a legit reason to cry .

"Second example drives me insane sometimes, and that's when I see girls cry over boyfriends. For real though, ladies my age don't know much shit about what "real love" is."

This is the part I disagree with. We may not know what "real love" is, but it still hurts. Obviously it's a big deal to us if we are crying. I cried over my ex once, it hurt like a bitch. We're human, we have feelings, and crying is just one of the many ways that we show our feelings. People cry for joy, happiness, and pain. I don't think it's irritating or dumb to see girls cry over boyfriends, or boyfriends cry over girlfriends because they are people that they TRULY care about. They can't help it. They're hurting. For some people crying is a way to make them feel better. It lets everything out & lets them start fresh. That's how I felt. I felt like once I got everything out I'd feel better, & I did. So no , crying over a boyfriend and/or girlfriend is not that dumb. 

ANYWAYS , i still think Bridget's blog was amazing . (:

FREE: We're not friends, we're sisters (:

Jennifer & I have been good friends for about 10 years now. She's not just my friend, she's my sister. No matter what people say about her she is STRONG. She doesn't let ANYONE get in her way & stop her from doing what she needs to because all the fake people that talk about her are just a bunch of HATERS. She's been there for me when other people weren't. She's ALWAYS there and I freaking love her for that. We get into fights, we make up, then we just continue on. We've only gotten into two major fights without making up the next day. 

Seventh grade (i think), somebody told her I started a rumor about her, which wasn't true at all. Jennifer hated me. We went through at least HALF of seventh grade without speaking to each other & calling each other some pretty nasty names. Thankfully, the truth eventually came out about who started it. Everything was perfectly fine from there on. She's helped me with so many things. School, family, rumors & especially BOYS. She's helped me when I was crying because of things that were said about me, when i was crying about some guy that screwed me over. He was a real douche. My ex too. I officially am disgusted by Quesadillas & Burritos. SHE KNOWS WHO I'M TALKING ABOUT (: Well anyway, she's been a good friend to me no matter what. She's like my sister & I hope people feel pretty stupid when they tried to break our friendship up & FAILED. I hope me & Jenn are friends for awhile. She means so much to me. I love her to death & no fake bitches can break us up because our friendship is REAL. They must feel stupid. I know I would. I love you Jenn (: Hope you liked this . ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

RE: Nobody's Perfect

'Words like these seem to constantly repeat in our minds: become stronger, become skinnier, eat less, wear more make up... because if you don’t, you will not be considered beautiful/handsome or you won't be accepted by your peers." -Casandra Duong

I think this is one of the best blog posts I've seen yet. This is so true. People think that if you don't have everything that you see on television, you aren't normal. Which isn't true at all. I think that people need to stop worrying about what they look like, and just be their selves. NOBODY IS PERFECT, and that's what the media seems the make us think we have to be. What is perfect? Nobody knows. Everyone has their own idea of "perfect". Everyone's "perfect" is different, and nobody's "perfect" is right. The media is stupid. They make people think that's what they have to look like in order to be accepted in the world. Which isn't true at all. 

I think it's quite horrible. The people that look like that on television have loads of make up on, they have personal stylists. People don't have those. We have to deal with what we have, and apparently what we have isn't "perfect". SO WHAT?! So what if you don't wear makeup? So what if you don't have the nicest clothes? So what if you don't hangout with "popular people"? That's not what's important in life. That makeup, those clothes, or that popular group of friends aren't going to get you anywhere in life. You do what you have to do in order to get by. 

The media says it would be better if we were skinnier, prettier, more popular, and people try to change because of that. Don't change for anyone but yourself. Don't do what you think you have to in order to be accepted. Do it because you want to! You're the only controler of your life. Not the media, not your peers, and not your parents. Don't change to make other people happy, and don't change to live up to these high standards the media has put in our faces. Change because it's what you want for yourself, because in the long run, it's not going to effect the people around you, it'll be you that's effected for the rest of your life.
