I'm Sorry Everyone

Before, I made a promise to myself to turn away from negativity. I guess I lost sight of that when I realized that it was happening in my own backyard. It was really hard to be myself this week- knowing that people could be so full of hate and ignorance. Luckily, after a long talk with my mother and some time with real friends, I remembered who I was. If you want to know about UCSD and the Compton Cookout, Google it. I'm not putting it on my blog.

What if Filmmakers Directed the Super Bowl?

You don't even have to be a filmmaker to enjoy this:

Rookie Screenwriter Finds the Right Mentor- Clint Eastwood

Gran Torino was by far not my favorite movie. But, it must be said that the story behind the movie is definitely inspiring.

Motivated Sista.

I like this post from the blog, Motivated Sista. It's about the power of autosuggestions.

Now I'm thinking about buying that book, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

I just bought my copy of Think & Grow Rich [Action Pack] by Napoleon Hill. I'm only on the first few pages and I'm already excited!

Having Fun is a Decision

Yesterday was our school's Spirit Night. My sorority was having a tailgate party beforehand and then they were going to go to the basketball game. I didn't want to go. I was more in a staying home kind of mood... until I remembered one of The Rules: "Show Up Even If You Don't Feel Like It."

Well, I did. And- I had a lot of fun.

I wasn't as much of a social butterfly as I could have been, but somewhere in between the tailgate party and going to the game, I realized that- you get as much out of life as you put in it. I could have just stood around and been a wallflower, but I realized that I should put all of my energy into having fun! Not having an agenda- like meeting guys, although that's always fun too- but actually having fun and meeting new friends!

I acted silly, I screamed and boo'ed at our opposing team, I met some new people, I got to know a lot more people better, and I had an all-around good time.

It's easy for me to think of a many excuses not to have fun, but I think that from now on, I need to realize that they're just excuses and give life my ALL!!!

After I made this post, I saw this picture!!! Amazing!

Creepiness at a Whole New Level...

I'm going to say this once and then I'm not going to bring it up again. Ever. I don't want creepiness attracted into my life.

Why do guys feel the need to be extra creepy? I've been around creeps before, but last night was just RIDICULOUS.

Indian guy.

Asked me to dance.

Said no [I just wanted to hang out with my friends]

Asked again.

Said fine, whatever.

Danced.

"You're really beautiful."

"Thanks."

"I owe you a drink."

"No thanks- I'm just dancing."

Went back to friends.

Few songs later.

Came back.

Asked to dance.

No.

Asked again.

No.

Asked again.

UGH! Fine!

Danced.

Went back to friends.

Followed me the whole night.

Danced with friends.

Kept following me.

Dude- get the hint.

Kept standing behind me.

Kept moving away.

Pulls out a camera phone- takes a picture.

WTF?!?!

I'm Guilty...

Of creating fantasy relationships... You know the kind? Where, after a nice dinner, you imagine yourself bearing his children? Except there was no dinner. There wasn't even a date. Or a "hanging out" session. Just a few exchanged words and a cute smile.

Yeah.

It's disgusting.

And a total waste of time.
