A Blank Mind.

These last few weeks have not been "A Mind's Blank Canvas" but more of A Blank Mind. I have found it tough to write about anything. You see, as I said earlier on, it is so much easier to write about the negatives than it is to write about the positives. And, to be perfectly honest, life right now, life is good. I have felt absolutely nothing to write about. As I have said to people, I am very easygoing, there is not much that really phases me. So, to feel so inclined to write the rants that I did, and complain, well, those subjects bothered me. But, lately, life has been good. Therefore, I don't know what to write, and this post shall be no exception. There is nothing else I can think of adding to this. Although, I guess it's good that I have nothing to be upset about.

A Lazy Sunday Afternoon

Orphan is a good movie. That is all.

An Amazing Conversation

To be honest, this isn't about one paritcular conversation. Though, it was most definitely inspired by a very long conversation I had. This particular conversation went for hours upon hours, and even though I had work this morning (This happened last night, by the way) I still found it impossible to leave this conversation till 12.00/12.30. I told myself earlier that night that I would be in bed by 11, so I could get a good amount of sleep. Funny how plans work out, huh? Maybe, just maybe, there is something there. So, this post is going to push off into two different parts.
First, isn't it amazing that we can talk to people for so, so long. For hours upon hours. Upon hours. I think that it is such an amazing phenomenon. Who would think that you could talk to one person for many, many hours. It is not often that it happens, but it is something that I find very interesting. To be honest, I have absolutely no idea why this can happen. Something in the brain, I guess, but I do find it very interesting. If you think you know why, feel free to comment and give me a theory.
Secondly, I wondered, how are you supposed to know if someone else likes you, or is fond of you? Is it an innate understanding that we have? That some of us lack? I dont really know, but I do think it is something that is innate to us. That somehow we just know, or at the least, think we know, who fancies us. And by the same token, who we like is the same. I have found it very difficult, practically impossible to convince myself that I like someone. It is something that I find is a natural process. Deliberately trying to convince yourself you do (or do not) like someone, or find someone attractive, is, I find, extremely difficult. Extremely difficult! Practically impossible! So, I guess, if you have some ideas on how you know if a guy/girl finds you attractive, let me know! I am interested to see what people think.

Now, I know in a previous post (See: Valentine's Day... Ugh) I detested Valentine's Day. Well, maybe not so strong, but I did mention that I am not a huge fan. And, I stand by my statement that it is no different from any other day, it just has a name. However, today is Valentine's Day. And in order to not alienate any of my readers (of which there are like, 2) I'll write a short list of some of my favourite love songs (I don't like Valentine's Day, but love songs are the greatest!).
In no particular order:

• Nothin' On You (Feat. Bruno Mars) - B.o.B
• My Beautiful Rescue - This Providence
• Into Your Arms - The Maine
• Whoever She Is - The Maine
• I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigner
• Here Without You - 3 Doors Down
• Your Arms Feel Like Home - 3 Doors Down
• Mine - Taylor Swift
• Love Story - Taylor Swift
• Let Love Bleed Red - Sleeping With Sirens
• If I'm James Dean, You're Audrey Hepburn - Sleeping With Sirens
• Yours To Hold - Skillet
• The Man Who Can't Be Moved - The Script
• When You Say Nothing At All - Ronan Keating
• Keep On Loving You - REO Speedwagon
• I Can't Fight This Feeling - REO Speedwagon
• Your Guardian Angel - The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
• Nothing Else Matters - Metallica
• The End Of Heartache - Killswitch Engage
• The Reason - Hoobastank
• November Rain - Guns N' Roses
• Emily - From First To Last
• Wrapped In Your Arms - Fireflight
• Give You My All - Eyes Set To Kill
• Mindset - Every Avenue
• Hero - Enrique Iglesias
• My Heartstrings Come Undone - Demon Hunter
• If It Means A Lot To You - A Day To Remember
• Time - Cute Is What We Aim For
• Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars
• Wait For You - Atreyu
• Remembering Sunday - All Time Low

So, there's a nice long list. Feel free to check out those songs, or don't, it doesn't really bother me. And yes, I might, kind of like Taylor Swift.

Positivity

So, today, I told myself I would write about something positive.
That was until, I did nothing all day. I went for a run. But apart from that, I did absolutely nothing. I sat at home and did nothing.
Isn't it sad that, however unintentionally, we let life slip by like that. Instead of having a good time, or, going out, making the most of everything, we do, almost literally, nothing.
Now, I know that we can't be out, having a good time 24/7. It is just not possible. But, surely, sittig around for a day is not a good habit.
Now, as I told myself, I will move on to something positive. That was just a little rant at myself to make something more of life at this particular moment. No biggie.
Something positive... Something positive...
How good are friends? Hmmm
What about that exercise? No...
Well, I guess all that I feel like writing about in a positive frame of mind is that I am quite a happy at the moment so that is a positive. I have a great job which I enjoy attending which I have been in for a week, and, I think anyway, that I am quite good at. I guess, like everyone, I have great friends. Wow, it really is so much harder to write about something positive than it is to write about anything negative.
So, I don't want to be the fatherly advice giver, or anything, but make the most of your life, and enjoy it. Really enjoy it. Work hard, play hard. And, don't sit around watching TV all day. Unless you want to write a blog post about it. Then, I guess, feel free. But, do some exercise or something as well, I don't want you to die. Oh, and eat healthily.

Valentine's Day... Ugh.

Valentine's Day, Valentine's Day, Valentine's Day. What can I say about Valentine's Day? Apart from the fact it is a day completely driven by 'romantics' that believe because they bought their girlfriend/boyfriend an expensive gift, they instantly become the best relationship partner in the world, Valentine's Day is amazing.

Now, I agree with the premise of Valentine's Day. Showing someone that you love them, fantastic. However, I do not aree with the fact that so many people believe that if they show it on one day of the year, they are free for the rest of the year. If you love someone enough to buy them a $3000 bracelet on Valentine's day, why not show it more often?

Now, there is one other thing that really annoys me about Valentine's day. And it is the, usually, kids, who are able to pluck up the courage to sell someone they like, that they like them, on this one day. Really, there is no difference between February 14th and February 15th. Why, all of a sudden, do you find bravery? Is it bravery? Well, maybe it's just trying to escape the "I'm single on Valentine's Day, I feel like shit" feeling.

Oh yeah, I guess that's bad as well. Valentine's day is essentially a day that makes most single people feel like crap. Yeah, just wait for all the facebook status' and wall posts. "I love you, baby" "Happy Valentine's Day baby." So, I guess, what I'm attempting to show here is my distaste for Valentine's Day. Maybe, if I wasn't so single, I wouldn't feel the way I do tonight. But, I really do not like Valentine's Day. So. Sue. Me.

Letting Out Of Frustration.

That is all.

P.S. Randomly hitting keys on the keyboard to make senseless words is unbelievably therapeutic. If you feel anger or frustration, comment with a senseless word made by hitting the keyboard. Feel the therapeutic...ness.
