**excuse the randomness of this note, as well as lack of organization. i was originally just changing a couple of sentences on the "about me" section and at some point it turned into an actual post. it happens**
i am very gullible. no, really, it's pretty terrible. i'm okay with that though. I generally tend to think the best of people, which kind of goes hand in hand with the whole "gullible" thing. again, i'm okay with that. I love life. I love hiking. Oh god i love the woods. i used to think that i liked the beach better, but no. gimme le woods. I crave the mountains. I CRAVE their solitude, i crave being in the middle of the forest, miles from civilization, alone with your thoughts, however meaningless they may be. Nothing is personal in the woods. You don't matter, your problems don't matter, nor do your joys. It's all about life itself.
I don't like selfishness. I *try* to be the least amount of selfish as possible. I also don't like cockyness, but that also goes hand in hand with selfishness. Come on people, stop thinking that everything is about you. It's not. What is so wrong about caring about other people's feelings? Yes i do watch what i say, and try to be careful not make people feel bad, not because i care about their opinions on me, but because i care about their feelings, and mood, and i ~like~ doing what ever little thing i can to improve them. Wouldn't the day-to-day be just a little better if everyone intentionally tried to brighten another person's day? I once read "the secret to happiness is to make those around you feel as if they are the cause of it" I gotta say, i agree. For me, personally, at least. I'm very loving. Particularly when wine is involved, at which point i love the world, everyone in it, and i make damn sure they know it.
Sometimes i let go of myself in my own head. That's not always healthy. That's the part where i lose all rationality and probably end up doing something stupid or acting like a jackass. It genearlly doesn't get that far. Only sometimes, most times i just stay in there (my head) and repress the whole thing. Very few people know how to handle me when I'm in that place. But then again, very few people actually see it.
I thrive off new experiences. I like being active, but i don't like sports. I find them to be stupid and overrated. Competitively. Why can't people just enjoy things for the act of doing them, being outdoors, playing with friends. noooo, lets make teams and become angry at each other if the other group doesn't agree with you. Like politics. I don't care those either. YES, i AM one of those people who just doesn't comprehend why it's so hard for people to just get along. feel free to roll your eyes now.
I want to hike Machu Picchu, rock climb El Capitan (with ken;]), scuba dive in the great barrier reef, Tango dance in Argentina, cliff dive off Victoria Falls, go bird watching in the andes, and smuggle a giraffe out of kenya. I will do these things, minus the last one. I'm still woking the details on pulling that one off.
I love my country. I am so incredibly pround of where i'm from. It's stunning, and colorful, and spicy, and just wonderful. My family is trully remarkable. Oh, and i am so much like my mom it's kind of ridiculous. Good news, my mom is loved by many. Bad news, she has been known to drive me crazy. Oh well, i realize it's my obnoxious youth and lack of patience. I adore her more than anything on this green earth. She is just a beautiful person. Believe me, if you met her you'd agree. Those who have, already do.
At some point this rant turned into an actual entry, so i feel as if i should mention my friends. They are freaking weirdoes. I'm not kidding. and i don't necessarily mean that in a good way either. But then again, i don't like ordinary. They are completly different from one another, but it works well. They also know how to handle my different levels of crazy, so that is nice. They are magnificent.
I like bright colors, and earth colors, and cool colors, and dark ones as well. I like the rain almost as much as i do the sun shine. I like being a hippie, and a dork, and a massochist, and saddistic, and loving, and kinky, and quiet, and loud and awkward, and there are those rare occations in which i am almost "cool"
rest assure, if you smile at me, i will smile back.
