My Apologies

I apologize for not posting all week long, and my only excuse is that I was busy. I had a hard time juggling my school work with everything else in my life, and I just could not function with the blog posting. Even though I enjoy writing posts just about anything. Sometimes, I need a break and take a step back and remember that I still have some parts of my sanity even though it is slowly getting away.

I do not want to complain about my life and how I think it is tough because I know it is boring to read about and that people have it worse than I do, so I do not want to sound like a piece of trash complaining about worthless things.

However, I do want to speak about something that has been bothering me at the back of my mind, which is my future. Despite my ideas that I will be fine in the future if I do my best in the present, I cannot help but think about. I have no idea what is going to happen to me, and it scares me. I do not want to think that, but I do. I have no direction in my life and I have no idea I want to do with my life, other than to help people. The quarter-life crisis, my friend.

With love,

The way I feel right now

I feel as though I am not my normal self, and it is to the point where I do not understand myself if that makes any sense. I guess I should just tell you my problems.

I feel very unfocused and disconnected with myself and my life. Such as, I will think of something and I do not know how it applies to my life, though it seems relevant. It is almost as if I have all the pieces to a puzzle, but I cannot seem to put it together. Also, I feel very anxious for some weird reason. I am not a nervous person, but I am anxious for no reason. My body has been anxious as well, like jittery and cautious of everything that might move, if that makes sense at all.

I do not believe that I am stressed out, but I have been also getting acne, which I barely get, but right now, for some weird reason, I have been breaking out. Ughh, I do not know what to do, and I do not know why my body is doing this to me.

Why do I feel anxious? Why do I cry for no weird reason at weird times during the day? Why do I feel disconnected and unfocused? Why do I feel incomplete even though I have everything in front of me? Please answer these questions because I need the answers.

Please help.

I Love You to the Moon and Back

Lately, I have been out of it. I cannot focus, I failed three things this week, and I am not myself. I have no idea why, and it is to the point where I just do not understand why I do things the way I do. I am fruststrated, and I hope that things will get better because it just has to. It has been a long time since I felt this way, and I do not like it. If you never had this feeling, great, and hopefully, you never do.

I literally slept at around 4:00 pm in the afternoon last night and woke up around 9:00 am, that just proves to you why I feel the way I do and I need to stop, it is unhealthy.

I am confused with myself. How did I let myself fail 3 things in a row? How did I let myself avoid the fact that I failed three things in a row? Ughh, I am so confused and frustrated.

With love,

I think I need a break

I failed a test and a quiz, and my waterline of my eyes got torn. Just wanted to say that. I am so frustrated with myself, and eventually, I think I might self destruct in the most nonharmful and unintentially way possible.

I need to breathe, take a step back, maybe rid of my possessions for a while because I am losing my sanity. Please help.

This mental breakdown rarely happens, so please help. Ugh, I am so upset with myself right now, not sucicidal, but upset.

With love,

Fright

Ok, remember how people were talking about how North Korea will bomb the U.S. I have a feeling the whole world is going crazy. Did you hear about the explosions? I am scared to the point where it is worst than the time I looked up Fransico Goya's work.

List of crazy happenings as of right now.
1. Boston bombing
2. Pakistan earthquake
3. Waco explosion

If you could find any updates, please comment

Ultimate Failure

My apologies to you for not writing that often, but the thing is that I cannot do well at things when I am overwhelmed. No, you are not my last priority, but you are not my first either. Trying to get things set for summer and Destin, schoolwork, and it was taking a toll on me.

Again, I have to keep it short, and I will see you all later.

Personality: Exaggerate, Mute, Change

I think sometimes the Internet allows many people's personality to be exaggerated, muted, or changed because people realize their true personality traits. However, if a person does that, he or she is very deceitful because that is lying.

You all know my personality traits and you probably do or do not like them because of your opinions are allowed. I cannot stop people from thinking they want to believe because if I do, I am being unfair. Even though I try to write posts in which they are interesting, they are more for me than anyone else because I write what I want to write, and if I try to please people, I will hate it. I do not hate writing posts, and I ask you all to give me ideas because to me it only seems fair if I grab ideas from you. Now, do not believe that I get all my ideas from you.

I do not want to address anyone as "Clouds," "Kiandreans," "Lawlorffs," "Mahomies," "Beliebers," etc. because I know that not everyone knows me well, not everyone enjoys my posts, therefore, I do not want to exclude anyone, which is what I want to avoid at all costs.

"Why are you addressing this?" You may or may not ask.

I address this because to me the most successful people do not exclude people, even on the Internet. Even though there may be "fandoms" (fan kingdoms), I really do prefer people to not have them,

I know two posts in one day; I just want to apologize for posting so late and give you two knowledgeable posts today.

With love,

Advice to Future Students in AP Courses

I think this needs to be addressed because I see a lot of stupid things inside AP courses, and I want you to have at least a guideline of what to expect because life tends to be unpredictable.

1. You will meet ignorant people.
Taking AP courses does not mean we will be surrounded by knowledgeable people because there will always be that kid that thinks he or she knows everything, when it is obviously not true, and sometimes, it is the teacher. Trust me, I had an argument about Jeffreys Bay, which I was the wiser one out.

2. You will might not have an "A".
I think this one was the hardest one to grasp because I was used to making "A" on my tests, and probably the only one I get a legit "A" is English. Do not worry or panic, it is just a letter grade. It only matters if you learned are not.

3. Working with a freeloader is inevitable.
Whether we are the ones freeloading or the other person is, we are bound to work with them, and it can be minor or major. The most major experience I had was that I had to make a huge binder about The Catcher in the Rye and one of the girls decided not to do anything. Therefore, I did it.

4. You will probably hate your teacher sometime during the course.
Do not worry about this because it does not pertain to the teacher. Just breathe and you will get through it.

5. You will feel overwhelmed.
Teachers do not talk to each other surprisingly. I had a portrait, 2 tests, and a presentation about a poem in Spanish in which I had to analyze and talk about in Spanish all in one week. It is inconvient, and they need to talk.

6. Even though you are in an AP course, it does not mean that you should do everything yourself. Remember, you are still a kid, a teenager.
For some dumb reason, teachers believe that once we are in an AP course, we should be able to do everything ourselves. So not true. Trust me, do your work and you will be fine, but the teachers have to play their part to or it will not work out.

7. Listen.
It goes a long way. Just follow directions. If anything is not clear, ask the teacher. Do not be afraid to ask.

8. You will be sleep deprived.
It is bound to happen and I am still trying to catch up on my sleep during freshman year, which is not good considering how long has it been.

9. You will get disturbed.
I do not know about you, but there are a lot of obnoxious kids in my school. There is this one girl who I despise because she does not know how arrogant she is. There is also this other girl who believes that she knows everyone I know, which is not true. Trust me, you will dislike one of the students in your AP course.

10. Only do it if you want to.
Remember, this is a choice. I recommend it, but if you believe that this is not good, do not do it. No one can force you to.

With love,
Violet Sar Bleu

My Day

I have never really told anyone how I felt about my day, and I had a very eventful day today, so you are in luck :).

I woke up today at 6:00 am and left the house by 6:30 am in order to volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, and no, I did not do a build today, I just volunteered a sort of church bazaar.

The first couple of hours tested my physical strength, which I have none, but nonetheless, once the event started to happen, I was moved a bunch of times. First, my friend and I had to put up balloons onto tents, and I had to hold the balloons, which was the scarious job because I thought I might go up with a boys scout kid and an old man (comment reference, ;)) or I might lose them all. I had to hold them for my much taller friend to put them up (I am short). Next, I was moved to the registration area and had to give out fake hard hats to children and separate them and got a cut, which I could not get a bandage for, but I was fine. Finally, I was moved for the third time (and this only happened to me) to the bean bag toss which most of my friends were there and we had a great time just having fun and fooling around when no one else was there. It is good to be young sometimes.

By noon, and yes this all happened in the course of 5 hours, I had to go home because my shift was over. I loved this volunteering experience because it was fun and enjoyable. I did not have to deal with bratty kids if I did not want to, and my job was changing throughout the day, so I had fun.

I had some time to kill, so I went with my mom and my sister to go get some Arnold Palmer and chicken tenders from our favorite place. If you never tried Raising Canes or an Arnold Palmer or even together, please do because I do not want you to miss out. And if you did try it, please tell me your thoughts on it.

Next, after an eventful meal that consisted of a conversation about Rosie, the Beatles and why Paul McCartney is barefoot and not John Lennon on their album (comment reference ;)), and pointilism art, I had to get a haircut in order to get my layers redone. My layers have grown out, so my friend Ivy decided to recut them for me and they look amazing. Thanks Ivy.

All in all, that was my day, now I have to do some World History homework, which I procrastinated on, do not judge me because we all do it.

With love,

Violet Sar Bleu

P.S. What is your way of finding something that you lost?

Random Thoughts

I have a lot of things on my mind lately, and I need to get them out. Most of these things will not make sense whatsoever.

1. Unneeded noise such as slamming fake golfing sticks and slamming the jump rope against the floor and wall is not cute, it is annoying. The world, please stop.

2. Music is supposed have meaning. If it sounds like trash or has lyrics that mean nothing, it is trash.

3. I probably done something terrible in my past life because I have the worst karma.

4. I cannot find my hours sheet. I am like the opposite of an alchemist. Everything I touch turns to dust, instead of gold.

5. If you cannot sing, for god's sake please do not scream your voice at the top of your lungs. I am fine if you sing, but if you strain your voice, I might say something.

6. The top 5 thoughts are not towards the public, more like directed to one person, and she does not even read my blogs.

7. Dear lord, boys, it is gym, not the freakin Olympics.

8. Why is my face breaking out all the sudden?

9. I only like one radio station in my hometown, and I gave up on it. Now, I rely on Skipper Radio for my music.

10. I do not think society has just reached its all time low. When I was in kindergarten, my friend got "engaged" and "married", go figure.

Yep, some thoughts in my head right now, do not take anything seriously.

"Look how stupid they will look inside the history books"- Sane People

I do not know about you, but whenever I am studying about seregration or oppression, I always look at the pictures on the history page and laugh at the people who are for the seregration and opppresion. Many people say that it is unkind, but be honest, we all do it.

Change is normal, sadly for most people, great for me. I like change because it allows us to grow.

Why am I stating all of this?

Gay marriage should be allowed. Yes, I believe that, and if you do not believe as so, you may comment some of these.

People Against Gay Marriage Comments

1. The reason to get married is to have children. A gay couple cannot produce children, so they should not be able to get married.
By that logic, an infertile woman or man should not be able to get married. That is all I have to say.

2. Same-sex marriage is against nature.
Nature involves complexity, and sometimes that involves the beauty of determining sexuality and gender. Every single animal has its own little quirk, this might be just be one of them.

3. Marriage is a religious. Therefore, since it is against of my religion to allow gay people to get married, it should be illegal.
There is a reason why religion and government do not mix. Marriage can be either religious or a government subject to deal with. Remember the "or", not "both", but "or". In the government, married people are allowed to have some benefits, so if you are against gay marriage, you are not allowing same-sex couples to have certain benefits.

4. The Bible
First, the Bible is not a federal document, so it should not be allowed to be part of the discussion. Not everyone is Christian, or whatever.

My Comments to Those Who are Against Gay Marriage

1. Not allowing gay marriage is religious oppresion.
Since marriage is based off of religion, not allowing someone to get married is religious oppresion.

2. A loving couple is a loving couple; it does not matter who is in a relationship.
A person's sexuality does not determine what type of person he or she is inside of a relationship. If a couple has a loving relationship, why they cannot get married?

3. Marriage is marriage. We should remove the labels.
Even though I used "gay marriage" throughout this post, I want to address marriage as marriage, that's it.

4. You do not have to get married to a person of the same gender if this law gets legalized.
This law does not make us a place where we only allow same-sex marriage (you will still be married to your spouse, do not worry), and you do not have to get married to a person who is of the same gender. Just be neutral about it.

5. Put yourself in their shoes.
What if someone told you cannot get married because of your sexuality? You would not think that it is fair, right? Exactly.

6. Many people have different preferences in their relationship situation.
Pretty much you are not allowing many people to get married, smooth.

7. Religion and government do not mix, so do not try to.

8. People in same-sex marriage are not the "devil" and do not say it is "Adam and Eve", and not "Adam and Steve".
To you all religious freaks out there, hopefully, you are satisfied :p.

9. Look how stupid you will look inside history books 20 years from now if you do not suppport it.
We look at pictures of people supporting seregration inside the 1960s and make fun. Look 40 years into the future, do you really want to see your picture and having a couple of teens making fun of it, no.

Yes, that is my rant for today. Hopefully, you enjoyed it. Also, what are some of your thoughts on same-sex marriage? Leave them in the comments below. Do you agree with me or not?

99th Post: Thoughts

I know many people usually celebrate the a significant amount of posts they have on their blog. For instance, they will state "100th post" or "10th post" or the most dreaded "1st post". Now, I decided to have fun with it and make the 99th post - technically, my 100th post, since I deleted my last one because it did not fully explained my day, forgive me. I cannot stand a lot of things, as many humans do, and most of the list of things have grown over the past couple of years.

Yep, one sin of society everyone commits, but denies, is hypocrisy. No matter who we are as a person, no matter how good we are, we still do things that we hate, and then critcize others for doing the same action they hate. That is committing hypocritcal action about hypocrisy. Awesome. However, everyone does, there is no denying it.

Another subject I feel strongly about is that religion, science, and government do not mix. Sorry, but no matter how much people work on it, it does not. So, the arguments over same-sex marriage and the thought of human deformations should not be included into the government. Therefore, in religious and scientific sense, avoiding the government is the best idea.

Dealing with people is difficult. I do not like dealing with people, and I am the worst person with social interaction. I may be wrong, but who knows? The famous quote that I will probably quote wrong and do not know where this comes from "Cars are not hard. It is people that you need a manual for". I cannot agree more because there is a certain way of interacting with people that does not involve the scolding of society. Complicated, but simply true.

Over the past couple of years of volunteering at various children events, I have noticed "the colorful and diverse relationships" between parents and children. They are not really that different, every single relationship follows a different stereotypes, whether good or bad. However, once in everyone's life time (unless you are not planning to have any kids or do not have anyone to take care of or do not have an authority figure over you), a person will treat his or her kids and his or her parents like trash. No need for argument there. It is the truth, and it is time that we all accept it.

All right, continue to have a great weekend and I will see you soon.

With love,

Goodness Gracious, My Grasshopper

Happy Friday, everyone. :) I apologize for not posting yesterday, but the thing is that I was way too tired to type anything out. And if I did, I will look like an uneducated sloth. Yes, and that will be an insult to sloth. Let's just say, I was not myself yesterday and could not function whatsoever. So, again, my apologies to you.

I just want to say something. I do not know if my wording will make it sound mean, kind, or just awkward, but I will try to do my best to say this thought in the best way possible.

I do not get why people will do the darnest things to get me upset. I do not get it. Some people will just make me mad, and even though I try not to be an angry person, I cannot help the frustration I feel.

For instance, this one time I was sitting by myself, just trying to draw a picture of an eye during lunch. Of course, I had a different lunch that day because of testing, therefore, none of my friends were there, which I was fine with. However, many people-I think they felt bad for me- decided to invite me to their table. You are probably thinking "Ok, what is the problem with that?" I do not know about you, but in my school, we do not have cliques. No jocks, cheerleaders, Valley Girls, stoners, just many people grouped together. Now, I have a very diverse school, so the grouping are as followed: the prepsters, the people with bad grammar (you know what I am talking about, those people always sagging their pants and acting like they own the school), and the people like me. The people like me are the loners/left-overs, pretty much the people who do not bother with social stuff unless they have to. Yeah, so the preps decided to invite me to lunch. Nonetheless, during the entire time I was there, I just wanted to finish my art.

Hopefully, you are happy. I want you to be happy, so be happy. Ok, good. :)

With love,

Violet Sar Bleu

P.S. Speaking in a different language does not make me deaf, I still hear your tone of voice. And sometimes, I understand.

Plans for the Future

Despite my beliefs that we should not worry about the future, I decided to give you all a heads up on what will happen and what I have been thinking about doing in the future because I think that it is time to let you all know what I will do.

What will Happen:

- I will be in Destin, Florida for the majority of my summer. Therefore, I will either make more posts or make less posts depending on the situation.
- My posts on literature will increase, so yay for you, bookworms.
- I will post pictures, but not with me in it, depending on my comfort level.
- I will give more music references and what I think we should listen to you all.

What might Happen

- I might visit Anaheim, California to go visit some friends and might go to VidCon, depending on my financial situation.
- I might start vlogs about my life and post it, who knows where. I will notify you if I do.
- I might start to do apprenticeship at a company. Again, I will notify you.
- I might stop posting on this blog and my other one because life might just get to crazy. Of course, I will give you a notice about it.

So yes, those are my thoughts about the near future. None of these things are anything about the distant future, so do not fear.

What your plans for the future?

With love,

The Tale of Rasputin

Hopefully, you know the famous story about Rasputin's death because it is quite a story, even I cannot explain its para normality. I think it is bizarre, however, I think his life story was strange. He was a weird guy to tell you the truth. I would not say that he had connections with the higher being, but he was a strange guy.

Otherwise, I decided to give you all a beautiful history thingy about Rasputin, but I bagged the idea. Look him up. Trust me, you will wonder if these are actually true or not.
