how?

I want to be the sun shining over the beach! I want to be a grean meadow in the mountains, with streams and trees everywhere. I'm such a hipocrite! I want to be fresh air for the people I affect. There is so much negativity that surrounds us, and I'm not going to lie, it has got to me. I've even contributed to it. Even though it may seem hopeless, or futile, I want to do good. It's what I want to stand for. I'll dedicate my life to this. I want to...let go. How do I let go? Inside I still want to be selfish. I'm fighting this.

It's Funny...

It's funny how we loose contact with people. Sometimes I look at old pictures and long to be who I was. It's not right though. People change. I have changed. I need to allow myself to improve. Who I was and who these past people were were friends, but we've all changed. It's difficult to move on sometimes. I miss people. But now I have to move on with my life. I have cherished memories that I won't dwell on. I need to let myself improve. And now I have someone to change with, Lindsey. Now it's not just me going through this life. We have to improve together, and we have to find a way to do it. It's really exciting to me. We're going to see new places, meet new people, and experience new things. But I'm still grateful for the people who have entered and exited my life.

It's Winter in Panama

Today I tried to edit the New Mexico Wikipedia page... It didn't work. It's really difficult to figure out how to edit Wikipedia. I read and I read. I finally figured out how to upload the photo I wanted to post (this one Photobucket ). I'll figure it out, I'm determined!

Tonight, I have determined that I enjoy the music of Santigold.

Tonight, I have also decided that I want to do some traveling...lots of traveling. I'm so happy that it wasn't only my decision either. Lindsey is all for heading to Panama for a year or so then do some more exploring. It's not just for us, we want to spread some good while we travel.

state song

O, Fair New Mexico
Written by: Elizabeth Garrett

Under a sky of azure,
Where balmy breezes blow,
Kissed by the golden sunshine,
Is Nuevo Mejico.
Land of the Montezuma,
With firey hearts aglow,
Land of the deeds historic,
Is Nuevo Mejico.

O, Fair New Mexico,
We love, we love you so,
Our hearts with pride o'reflow,
No matter where we go.
O, Fair New Mexico,
We love, we love you so,
The grandest state to know
New Mexico.

Rugged and high sierras,
With deep canyons below,
Dotted with fertile valleys,
Is Nuevo Mejico.
Fields full of sweet alfalfa,
Richest perfumes bestow,
State of apple blossoms,
Is Nuevo Mejico.

O, Fair New Mexico,
We love, we love you so,
Our hearts with pride o'reflow,
No matter where we go.
O, Fair New Mexico,
We love, we love you so,
The grandest state to know
New Mexico.

Days that are full of heart-dreams,
Nights when the moon hangs low;
Beaming its benedictions,
O'er Nuevo Mejico.
Land with its bright manana,
Coming through weal and woe;
State of esperanza,
Is Nuevo Mejico.

O, Fair New Mexico,
We love, we love you so,
Our hearts with pride o'reflow,
No matter where we go.
O, Fair New Mexico,
We love, we love you so,
The grandest state to know
New Mexico.


The State Song of New Mexico was officially adopted in 1917.
About the author: Elizabeth Garrett is the daughter of Pat Garrett, the man who killed Billy the Kid.

Beauty and the Beast

I love that scene in Beauty and the Beast where the dishes start to wash themselves. The dishes wash themselves in a different Disney movie too. Do you know what one? That's right! Sword in the Stone. Merlin uses his magic so the boy can learn things. Point is, I wish dishes could wash themselves. It would also be nice to meet Gastolf, the bad guy from Beauty and the Beast.

Statistic

So I heard somewhere (actually in my Stat 145 class, yes I still have to take a freshmen class but it's one that I didn't know I had to take until recently) that people who have a car covered with bumper stickers are more likely to posses road-rage. I thought about this and it makes total sense. People with bumper-stickers tend to be more opinionated and therefor territorial. They want their word heard because they think that they are right. So if I cut off a person driving a car covered with bumper-stickers he/she is not going to think about how I may be right by cutting them off, but they will think I'm wrong. They have strong opinions and they want their opinions to be heard, especially the negative opinion they will project to me by giving me the finger and laying down on the horn.
