Insecure

In my 13 years, I've probably felt insecure many times but I would not call my self an insecure person.

I have met people who are so defensive and suspicious of other beings because they feel there's something wrong with themselves. Often the only thing that's wrong with them is that they are so insecure. That makes them uncomfortable and therefore awkward, constantly analyzing the behavior of others with questions spinning around their heads. Is she talking about me? Why are they eyeing me like that - did I do something wrong? The answer is probably yes. When your staring at someone with your faced screwed up in wonder and a questioning look in your eyes that's getting defensive; the person will immediately stop what he/she's doing and start wondering what's wrong with you. Then, the person'll talk about it.

People are insecure for so many reasons but mostly, they're of the same nature. The real issue to analyze is that how do people project their insecurity?
Most get defensive, constantly paranoid, attacking people who happen to look in their direction. Others do nothing, in the fear they are doing something wrong. People become rigid and afraid to let go, scared that others in the crowd will make fun of them. They hide. They live in a little hole; afraid to be seen. Some people, especially teenagers, adopt a "don't care" attitude. That attitude also shields them from getting hurt.

I have noticed that so many people are insecure. Not just those shy kids in the corner. You'll come across a popular cheerleader, the captain of the sports team or even an authoritative boss who is insecure.

Insecurity can lead to so much - some things to disturbing to talk about but there's one thing for sure - people who are insecure need help. Although insecure people seem just fine on the surface, I am sure all of us can look a little deeper and see that there's something wrong. I don't think we have to go and counsel that person or anything but you can make the person's life a little bit easier. Just let them know that you don't hate them. You can also try being nicer to them. That's a difficult task because their defensiveness makes them annoy-ing but believe me, it helps them so they loosen up a bit and become easier to be around.

Food

I've always had a small appetite but loved good food. People always accepted that. That is, until now.

I have a swimming competition in around 3 weeks and my coach and parents are all forcing me to eat way more than I handle. This is my daily menu-

23 toasts with 1 pound of cheese, 3 pounds of peanut butter, 45 eggs and 87 almonds for breakfast

44 bananas and 62 apples for a mid-morning snack

Anything that weighs more than 7 pounds for lunch

17 sandwiches and 66 bananas in the evening

And finally, anything weighing more than 5 pounds for dinner. Dinner is followed by 3 gallons of juice and 18 bowls of fruit...

Okay.. Maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit but I am so sick of food!!!!!!

I'll sign off after this rant.

G'day!

My current obsession: Anything that doesn't remind me of food. Maybe Bones. But NO!, they have calcium which is present in milk!!! AHHHHHHHH....

Fatty and Fatso

I have noticed that a lot of people around me lack basic general knowledge. They don't even know the difference between a fatty and a fatso! Let me make the difference clear to all you mere rational thinkers out there.

A fatty - a person with fat qualities
A fatso- a person with excess flab

Now, I hear all your flabbergasted brains are perplexed. They are all thinking the same thing. What on earth are fat qualities?
You wanna know? You really wanna?
You wont until you re-phrase your question.
What on earth are fat qualities?
Now you have a vague idea about what I'm getting at..

Now I'm too tired to tell you. You'll have to figure that out by yourself.

My current obsession: Pretty/Unpretty

Me

Although I've posted 5 times so far, I really don't think you readers know anything about me other than the fact that I am a random girl with weird thoughts (unless you know me, which is usually the case). So, my dear reader, here are some things you need to know about me:

1) I love to read! Anything. Other than teenage vampire romance novels.

2) I am that quiet, dreamy girl in the corner but when you get to know me, I am LOUD!

3) I am not photogenic.

4) I may be a teenager but that doesn't mean I'm a parent-hating, clothes and boy obsessed rebel.

5) I love to cook and bake. And I love to eat.

6) I hate it when people say I am too thin or too fat or too tan or too pale or too tall or too short or whatever.

7) I love to write but am not very good at it.

8) I am an okay student.

9) I think love at first sight is stupid and vain. And teenage crushes are rarely the "love of your lives". Also, I hate it when people say "My life would suck without him/her" or "I am happiest when I am with him/her". People, you need to be self sufficient and stop relying on other people for happiness.

10) I can't stand vain, racist, sexist, closed-minded or judgmental people.

11) I like watching TV but nothing beats a good book.

12) I can't stand rap music. Other than Eminem. You know, when I first heard his name, I thought he was M&M (the candy). I'm not saying rap music is bad. All I'm saying is, it's not me. I'm more of a soft-rock, pop and country (although not Tim McGraw kind) kinda person.

13) Which brings me to, I LOVE M&M's! And all kinds of candy.

14) I love dark chocolate.

15) I do not like the number 15, therefore, there is nothing over here.

16) I am not sporty but very active.

17) I LOVE to swim. I try very hard to swim fast when I have to.

18) I am not usually competitive but I'm a perfectionist.

19) The last 5 sentences started with the word "I" so I'm gonna start this point with "The".

20) I hate bratty, spoiled kids

21) My favorite subjects are Literature, business studies, chemistry and physics. I also like history, which I have not taken.

22) I admire courageous, focused, indépendant and friendly people. And people who like raspberries.

23) I am an ice-cream junkie. And I love rainbow sprinkles. And rainbow colors

24) I love quotes from songs.

25) I can add another 25 facts but I think your tired of reading. So goodbye for now.

Supposedly Interesting..

We all know there are many, many ways to kill boredom but 1 method seems to be the best for me. Going through random, interesting facts. I used to think the things we learnt at school were useless until I read these facts.

Any-which-way, I was going through this website full of interesting facts. Scrolling down, my excitement kept growing. This site is so cool, I thought, these facts are really, really interesting. Not the kind you hear about everyday. Yes, I was almost in love with the site. But then, I found this:

"The pancreas produces insulin."

sujafkiudashoritabasagh!!!! That is supposed to be interesting?!? God, save me.

How? How can that lie among facts like:

"Mary Stuart became Queen of Scotland when she was only six days old."

"Flying from London to New York by Concord, due to the time zones crossed, you can arrive 2 hours before you leave. That's actually time-travelling."

"The word "nerd" was first coined by Dr. Seuss in "If I Ran the Zoo." (Dr. Sues is a genius)

"Dueling is legal in Paraguay as long as both parties are registered blood donors."

"Kansas state law requires pedestrians crossing the highways at night to wear tail lights."

"The Main Library at Indiana University sinks over an inch every year because when it was built, engineers failed to take into account the weight of all the books that would occupy the building."

"According to suicide statistics, Monday is the favored day for self-destruction." (Must say, some people have very very serious cases of the Monday morning blues!

Christina Perri

Have you ever heard a song that seems to have been written for you?

Not the message. The music.

Well, I feel that way about almost all Christina Perri songs. If I were to write songs, I'd write stuff that'd sound exactly like them.

I've just listened to The Lonely and I'm like, "BLIMEY! I am absolutely flabbergasted!"
Everything about that song, every note she hits is eerie, touching and just perfect! Perfect! Perfect! PERFECT!!

Any-which-way, I would think Christina would be far more famous than she is right now. She is amazing, gone from being a waitress to a singer but people don't even know about her. Sometimes, I talk to people about music and they say, "Who's Christina Perri?" and I say, "Shut your cake-hole!! Listen to her this minute, or else..*trying to sound incredibly threatening*"...

Thing is, I may have never heard of her if not for a fantastic friend. I'm trying to imagine life without Christina Perri music...

It's pretty much the same BUT trust me when I tell you, Christina Perri is a great example of timeless, amazing artists.

Okay. Now listen to her. And watch her amazing videos. And tell me you love her hair ;).

Master Chef Australia

What can be better than master classes, mystery boxes, celebrity chef cook-offs and invention tests?

Not much.

Master Chef Australia is one of the best TV shows of all time. And it's starting tomorrow!!! I can't wait!!! It's been over 6 months since the time I used to sit on the couch, watching the most amazing food being put together by excited competitors.

Your probably wondering what I'm talking about. I could have watched the other Master Chef seasons from other countries but it's not the same. Master Chef Australia is the only Master Chef where the contestants are actually nice to each other, united by their love of food. In Master Chef USA, it was just politics and in Master Chef India, all everyone did was cry.

Déjà Vu

I wonder why we have Deja Vu..

I've read that sometimes your subconscious picks up little things you don't register and puts them together to make a scene that you put in the back of your mind. When something happens and your brain has put together a scene that matches it, you experience Deja Vu.

After watching a Wizards episode, I was convinced (for quite a while) that we have Deja Vu because a wizard has turned back time. Don't laugh. Almost every die-hard fan thought the same thing.

Somebody told me that if something happens that happened to you in your past life, you experience Deja Vu. I'm not sure I believe in past lives and stuff but the explanation certainly makes sense. If souls have multiple lives.

Anyways,
Adios.

Hello
