Who has heard the thing about eating sugar before you go to bed makes you have bad dreams?
I know I have, and unfortunately for me, I've had [even just a tiny bit of] sugar before bed and I had nightmares...for 4 nights in a row. Last night was finally my one night I slept decently good with pleasant dreams.
If you don't dream...That's okay, I would honestly rather just sleep and not dream than have nightmares.
This isn't going to be a very long post, considering I should be trying to sleep by now...
But I'm also waiting for my Hulu to buffer, haha.
So in the mean time, I just thought I would post up my own personal thought of the evening.
...Meh, why not just combine two thoughts into one post...?
So here's my dilemma:
I found out yesterday that my boyfriend is going out of the country next month for a mission trip to help orphans. What people do on the missions like that, I have no idea, for I have never done one.
But anyways, remember my post about California being so evil and taking everyone away from me?
Yeah well, he was gone for almost two weeks there. I try [or more so try not to] think about how in the hell I'm going to be able handle him being gone for long.
I almost lost my own sanity when he went to California [mainly because all I did was went to work, went home, eat, shower, sleep. Repeat cycle] But this time I have friends still here and school and whatnot.
I told him last night that the whole idea was really bothering me.
I mean, I know he's going for a good cause. And truly, good for him...I'm really proud of him.
But I did tell him I honestly didn't know how I could handle him being gone [OUT OF THE COUNTRY] I didn't know if I could stay with him for the time he's gone or not.
I asked a few friends what I should do to handle this situation, because of course it's going to be hard for me to deal with, it breaks my heart just thinking about him being gone and then our relationship starts to feel like an hour glass.
Well anyways, one of my friends told me I should take a break from him [in other words, break up until he gets back]. I don't want to do that...that would hurt both him and myself and probably ruin a lot of trust stuff, and I love him far too much to do that. Then another friend more so said they were sorry to hear that I have to go through that. But I think they were basically thinking...or telling me that I should deal with it. Logical choice. Wait until he gets back, and everything will be fine.
It truly just kills me to let him leave me [over and over and over again, I might add]...Well leave me in the sense of being elsewhere without me.
It brings me back to not expecting to have these feelings towards him and care for him as much as I really do, but I'm not going to go into all of that.
Anyhow. You, being my reader and all...what do you suppose I should do in this situation? I would just like to have other's opinions.
Anyways, I'm pretty sure Hulu is done buffering.
Goodnight all!

Popchips
A healthy food, that's all natural, and doesn't have any of the icky stuff that regular chips have.
Is this a joke?
Heck no!
I never really thought that Popchips would really be good, but yesterday I bought a bag and tried them out.
THEY ARE AMAZING!
My kind of chip, definitely :)
And considering I'm sort of a health nut, I miss not being able to eat the junk food.
But like I said. Popchips. The chips that are all natural (and healthy) and have a great taste, that substitute for the junk food chips.
:)
Oh Hallelujah.

Open To Feedback
I've been told, pretty recently, actually that when I rant, my rants aren't "long enough".
I truly do appreciate that a few of my readers, more so close friends, tell me their opinion about my blogs. It's extremely helpful, it takes me back to my Sophomore and Junior Language Arts classes, I had the same teacher for both years, and every time I wrote an essay I was always given feedback on what else to include, why, and to go deeper into my thoughts and words. I generally always thought that my writing had to be like my teacher's writing, long explanations, proving points to the very last strand. But I try to give myself some room to write what I feel and it doesn't have to be perfect.
I'm really going to try better at getting deeper into my thoughts so my readers (if I happen to even have any) can have a better understanding of what I'm talking about.
With that said (and I know I say those words a lot in these posts), let's try a rant for the day...Or night.
Example 1:
I'm not going to name any names, but let's go with Person A and Person B
Person A is a grumpier person, always has to be right, about everything. It's their way or no way. Oh and Person A is extremely rude and very self-centered.
Person B is a very calm person who truly does not like violence and tries their best to stay away from drama. They continuously try and try and do their best at everything, and when it comes to the saying "You are your biggest judge" It's 100% for them.
Anyhow, Person B has to go out of their way a lot to watch after other people and put their own things aside for another time. Person B is always using their time to wait after other people. But Person B has finally gotten to the point where they want to do things more so for themselves and have no worries. Person A, on the other hand is...well I'll just show you this face...
There, that basically explains it ^-^

Anyways, Person B had their mind set and focused on one thing by the late afternoon, but one thing after another just had to come in their way and they never really got around to completing that one thing.
Person A was just nagging and nagging and nagging and always getting in the way of things and not really doing what they were supposed to be doing. It's like Person A went out of their way to be immature and make Person B feel like crap.
Person B finally had enough and blew up, was yelling and trying to make a point, but unfortunately Person A has a hard, thick skull where no one else's opinions or thoughts can get through to them. Person A told Person B to "Shut the [front door]" and that's really when Person B had enough. Unfortunately, just from that one little incident of all the stress building up and Person B blowing up over it, Person B may be getting grounded for a week and their car taken away...?
Wait...Car taken away...?
Let's rewind and go over the fact that Person B bought their car with their own money, they pay for their own gas, and their own money pays for their own insurance.
>>I want to know when the last case was with someone taking away someone else's car that the other person had paid fully with their own money, and the only reasoning the other other person had for taking away the car was "You live under in my house, therefore my rules."
Hmmmm...Let's say ummm...NEVER...?<<
Back to the story, Person B follows the rules, does everything they are told to do, and do it when they're told. Always home early. Watching an elementary kid, and keeping up with their own school work. Responsibilities much? Oh, forgot to add that Person B also has to be the one to pick up after [let's say Person C's] responsibilities. So we all know now that Person B is a very mature, and responsible person.
But just over one little blow-up Person B gets the hammer...Big time.
>Let's review the fact, No one I repeat, NO ONE has the right to take away another person's belongings, unless there is suspicion and illegal elements involved (and that would usually only be the police).<
So tell me...What the f***?!
Just from listening to this story, I'm completely baffled by this situation.
I'm just going to say that Person A has zero respect for others and (oh gosh) I could go on. Person A is an ass, 'nough said.
I think I have lost my train of thought, and yes (if you are the humorous type) my train has crashed.
Well anyways, looking back up and reminding myself that the title is 'Open To Feedback', anyone...and I mean...ANYONE who reads my blog are more than welcome to comment or anything really, and give me feedback on my blog posts and what would make it more enjoyable for YOU to read. I will say now, I do try to include my every explanation I have, but if there's more you'd like to know...Just tell me :)

Lack Of Communication
...I thought it was bad in men, but oh gosh...
Do you need a group of people who don't communicate directions or information very well??
SHHS would be the place to go for that!
With a new school year starting, of course Freshmen have their first day and then the upperclassmen have their first day with the Freshmen, and our very [very] messed up bell schedule we have 7-period classes on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. What happened to Wednesdays and Thursdays? Oh yeah, we have block periods with PRIDE period both days...but I'm not done yet...We also have early release on Wednesdays [which used to only be on Fridays, last year]
To add...Not even the counselors know what the bell schedule is for this week.
If you don't know why I'm on such a rage about this...Let's take a look at the bell schedule the past 3 years:
My Freshmen year [2008-2009]: It was just a nice block schedule, with early release Fridays. The only problem was, all students were stuck with a tutorial class...A class that we sit in for an hour and a half and not get ANY credit for. Everyone could deal with that amazing bell schedule, including the tutorial time, because it was truly just social time :)
This was better known as the best schedule evar!
Sophomore year [2009-2010]: All the amazingness changed to the boring 7-period bell schedule...all day, every day. At the end of my Freshmen year, I did start a petition to keep the block schedule. Turns out we didn't have enough signatures and no one knew when the big board meeting was [not very well thought out plan]. This is why no one ever has good memories of their Sophomore year in high school *sigh*
Junior year [2010-2011]: Oh how the school board thought it would be just fantastic to have a 7-period bell schedule...mixed with a PRIDE period on Thursdays, block schedule for Thursdays and Fridays, and early release Fridays. This was probably the next best bell schedule compared to my Freshmen year. Oh, and PRIDE periods were equivalent to the tutorial periods...But this time, we only had 30 minutes of work time and it was still not accredited.
Senior year [2011-2012]: Like I said way above...
Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays we have regular 7-period class schedule.
Wednesdays we have 2nd, PRIDE, 4th, Lunch, and 6th periods, plus early release.
Thursdays we have 1st, PRIDE, 3rd, Lunch, 5th, and 7th periods.
It's honestly so much better to have early release on Fridays and not waste students' time with putting us in PRIDE period...two times a week this year!
Reason for the school changing the schedule just about every year, I've been going to school here...?
It saves money.
-.-
I could on and on about the financial problems our school has had. Oh gosh. But I don't want to get started on that...plus I have some other important things to do tonight.
Upperclassmen: have a good last-day-of-summer evening :)
