Don't Judge a Wheelchair By It's Recipient

Because sometimes people surprise you and get up out of their wheelchair and walk around in front of you.
This is no metaphor - it happened right in front of me.
But seriously, don't judge people by their appearances because nobody is perfect, and it's just not very nice. And hey, people can always surprise you, and those surprises may be pleasant :)

1 piece of cake landed me my new friend

This is for Maddy, my new friend

The title is rather self explanatory. I love my friends and I love making new friends. A facebook status and a piece of cake introduced me to my new friend, Madeline Jane Salter. And for that I am truely grateful, because she is amazingly awesome and a down-to-earth person that I love talking to.

Many criticize facebook as many of the friends you have aren't usually people you would talk to in real life and at times it has been dangerous for people. Bit of stranger danger.
But I thank facebook a lot for it's existence, because now I have a new friend :)

Maddy, I promise to also try new recipes and always share my cooking with you.


Lover.

Speechless

I considered writing a blog for a week. For that whole week, I made mental notations in my mind about what I would write about and how I would go about my blogs. I feel as though I have so much to say, but as soon as I actually create a blog and sit down to write, I've got nothing. In other words, I'm speechless.

Okay, after looking on facebook for something to rant about, i've finally found something...

So my rant of the day/night:
I HATE facebook statuses that people write that obviously don't make sense to anybody unless you ask the person about it, especially if the status includes "fml" because that's just attention seeking. My only exception: when your 1,000 word Macbeth essay gets erased - that deserves an "fml" and at least I wrote in my status what it was for.

Tears Are Salty

I've never fully understood crying...
I know it's a human way of showing emotion, but it confuses me.
At times, I don't even want to cry, but the control is not there.
Other times, I have the massive urge to cry, but alas, no tears.
I find it weird, that wet stuff can come out of our eyes when we feel strong enough emotions.

I cried tonight.
Over something so small and meaningless.
But it happened.
The tears are gone now.
They did nothing to help.

I'm Going To Dye My Hair Blonde

For those who know me, I'm quite deaf and often miss key words in sentences and therefore mis-interpret a lot of things that people say. But I hate those times, where someone has obviously misheard something and thought someone else has said something completely different, and even thought they know that's not what they said, they still go: "did you say (such and such)"
But anyway, it's just a little rant that goes on inside of me everytime it happens. Admittedly I think I do it a lot, which completely contradicts my first ever post, but whatevs.
