What's that itchy feeling? Love? Or did I get too close to a public toilet seat?

I feel like I should be arrested for trying to write about love. Seriously... who the hell am I? Single. That's who. First of all.. have you seen this video? Watch it anyway. I'm sure you'll think it's hysterical:

It actually has some spot on impressions. I, for example am the girl at: 13 sec, 1 min, 1.03, 1.18 and beyond!

Now that that's outta the way. We can move on to bigger and better things.

I'm not actually going to write about love today. I am SO not ready for that entry! I don't think anyone really is...

Instead I'd like to talk about our younger days. Myself included, once I hit 25 or so.. I'd heard more and more of people "Taking a step back", or "Getting back on track", or as I've put it.. "Finding myself". What happened? Do we all fuck up that much in our late teens/early 20's? So much to the point where we have to put our lives on hold so we can 'figure it out'? I think it's a phase most people go through... you're young! You have this new found Independence and freedom! The World is in front of you and you're ready to take it all on! But we start drinking. and missing work/classes, making poor decisions, And having crazy sex parties. And cocaine.

Start whistlin', boys!

Ok.. maybe not cocaine... but in some cases, yes! Probably!

In any case.. a lot of us make some poor decisions. In my case I started working. Once you start working, it's hard to stop for school, or a new town, or.. much of anything. You take what you can get and accept that that's your life. It doesn't matter if you think it's only temporary. It's only going to change if you get fed up with it all and do something about it. Which is where I'm at now and which is why I'm "Finding myself". Ahh yes it all comes back.

The World has such an incredible way to force "Right" and "Wrong" on us. Every culture does it... and we're all different. The role of society can often make one feel like a failure if they don't make it to the top. For this reason... the 'failures' have low self esteem and the 'winners' are cocky assholes who think they know everything about everything ever in the history of the world. They're wrong a lot.. but unfortunately they get to control what's right and wrong as they're on top. And I'm a loser.

Success is different for everyone. No one besides yourself, can decide whether you hit it or not

. People constantly want to offer advice, or solutions to your 'problem's whether you have them or not. Be your own person. Make your own choices. Do what's right for you.

Who says if you're a slut you have to shop at Wet Seal?

Who says if you're a Vegan, you have to have tattoos and a pixie cut??

Who says if you're a Republican you have to drink the blood of 6 homeless people each quarter???

I rest my case. Before you start trying to find yourself.. realize these stupid little rules and life points are all bullshit. Make your life what you want it to be. You're the one living it.

But if I could give one piece of advice... Wear. Sunscreen.
