My silly bum life realizations

Seriously, chef Gordon Ramsay is one of my idols. No, I am not a cook. I can't even cook for myself! I'm just a push-over teenager who lived in the shadow of others all my life. Now that I graduated college and I am turning twenty in less than twenty days, it's about time for a change. Ironically, my bum life gave me all the time to think. Well, that is in between writing blog entries, tutoring my sister, and watching my cute hamsters. I have come to realize certain things in life.

First, life is full of lemons, and I sure hate lemonades. Seriously, life's lemonade is like a left over of our problems. Sure, it tastes better, but it certainly cannot be denied that it still has that sourness that makes our faces twitch. If we choose to solve our problems, why not go all the way? Why not go for a scrumptious meringue pie instead of lemonade? This sure reminds me of Mythbusters. "If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing."

Second, there is no such thing as glass half-empty because technically, the glass is always full. It always has one part water and one part air. It is not about the positive thinking nor the negative thinking. It is about the right perspectives. You know how some photographers take on extreme measure just to get a perfect forced perspective? That is what I am talking about. Sometimes you just have to set aside all your beliefs, all your morals to see a new possibility. I always keep in mind what football coach Jimmy Johnson said, "The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra."

Last, life is unfair as it is. Just deal with it. No to pop the bubble, but we are all going to leave this life anyway. As long as life is playing dirty, why not play dirty as well. I do not mean for you to break the Ten Commandments or the freaking Constitution. What I mean is, why not let loose a little. After all, it is your life! Nah, I got nothing witty here. All I have is... "dance hard, laugh hard, turn the music up now, party like a rock star, can I get a what now?" What, me teaching a lesson using "Till I Forget About You" by Big Time Rush? Oh, no. I was just fangirling mode with Logan Henderson! See? Even a nerd like me needs distractions like this.

So, there. I found all the time in the world to read quotes by great people, waste my time in front of the tv, and listen to pop music. On top of all that, I found the time to collect my thoughts and organize them. Somehow, I feel that I would be looking back at this entry a lot in the future!
