Facebook Pokemon Profile Picture Month

For as long as I can remember having a Facebook, I also remember enjoying having my profile picture be a Pokemon in December and have others join me.  All you have to do is choose your favorite Pokemon or the on you think is most adorable, put the picture in one of your albums, then post it as your picture.  So, in honor of that, I am posting photos of pokemon.  Little side note, something I found out today:  Ekans is the snake pokemon and Ekans is just snake spelled backwards.  How unclever.

Set your priorities

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf
balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles roll
ed into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full.. The students responded with a unanimous ‘yes.’

The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.The students laughed..

‘Now,’ said the professor as the laughter subsided, ‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things—-your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions—-and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.. The sand is everything else—-the small stuff.

‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’ he continued, ‘there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and mow the lawn.

Take care of the golf balls first—-the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, ‘I’m glad you asked.’ The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of Beers with a friend.

Most Evil Children in History

In honor of Halloween, I thought I would scare everyone with the truth.  The truth is we have some scary crap going on out in the world.

Happy Left Handed Day

 This is the day we celebrate all left handed people, including ME.  We tend to be more creative and use the left side of our brain.

Eat It

My fiancee has been trying to get me to not worry about gaining weight and just eating because I am now pregnant.  So, in honor of this, I am posting this funny video.

Fireworks




Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Hello

Today I thought I'd keep it simple.  Just stop by, say 'hello' and cross my fingers that someone just might stop by and comment.  So hello world.  Are you going to say 'hello' back or be a jerkface?

First Post of the New Year

Happy 2012 everyone.  We made it through another year, lets just hope we make it out of this year alive.  I have only a few resolutions this year:
  1. get rid of this sickness and the allergic reaction I got from my medication
  2. Continue to lose weight (23lbs have been lost already, partly because of my sickness sadly)
  3. Do well with my online classes so I can get my dream job someday (broadcasting journalist)
  4. Hopefully get engaged to my amazing boyfriend (or at least continue to date him <3)
  5. And lastly, be happy and love life because it is short
Happy New Years everyone.
