It's all in you and me

Depending on what type of person you are and how you perceive things, you will look at situations different than I would, and that is perfectly perfect because agreements do not thrive perfection. Disagreements, that are constructive, make things perfect by ridding all of the jagged ends.

Things I just noticed

Coming back from Lake Conroe made me realize something, I live in my bikinis in the summer. I am not even kidding. I literally live in my bikinis, everyday all day. Why do say these things? It is because I have more bikinis more than underwear. That just shows how my life style is. But, I am not ashamed of it. From visiting Destin to going different beaches all around, I cannot help but notice that I live in my bikinis. I sound crazy, but in the summertime I literally do.

The reason why I have so many bikinis is because every year I get a new one, just to freshen everything up a bit. But, although I have grown taller, I have not grown that much wider. Therefore, my bathing suit size have not changed since the 6th grade, and to add onto that, I get swimwear as a birthday gift since it is during the summer.

I have no shame in saying all these things because it is true, and I cannot deny it.

On a Getaway

I get to live in my bikini, tank tops, and cutoff shorts, and I cannot be any happier. This trip is just getting me so excited to go to Destin.

This post is just for us, just to see how am I doing.

Weekend Trip

I am off to Lake Conroe this weekend, and I am super excited, even though the waves will be less that desirable there- I mean choppy waters, really- but all in all, I am so psyched.

I do not understand

In every school, no matter how great or seemingly "terrible," has white collar crimes. When I first heard this term, I have no idea what it meant and felt ignorant for asking my sister about, which in turn, of course, she knows about it. White collar crime, as defined by me, is when a person screws other people in order to be ahead, usually in an unfair way. You might probably think "I do not understand," "Life is unfair, get over it, kid," or "I know what you are talking about."

An example of white collar crime (in the most innocent way possible) is when a kid asks another kid to test out a bridge to see if it would break. The kid asking knows that the bridge will break, so the other kid ends up falling, while the original kid remains safe and continues on. I think that is a white collar crime, but I can be wrong. I think that is what it is.

Why do I bring this up? I have no idea. It came to my mind when I was finishing up my kaleidoscope picture, and I wonder why people do it. In my opinion, it takes more work to cheat, rather than learning and do the test on our own. I sound mean, but that is what I think. There is a group of students in my grade who are so competitive and obnoxious with school, and even though they consider themselves friends with one another, one of the insiders of the group told me that they do not even like each other and pretend to be each others' friends. I feel pity for them, not only do they have to put up with the thought of the other person being better, but also, they do not like each other. I feel lucky to have a group of people who surround me and support me and actually genuinely like me.

I want you to have great friends and a circle of people you can be proud to call your friends. A good friend can have fights with you because it is usually done out of good, never trying to bring you down. Trust me, no one should have to have fake friends.

Now, with fairness. People say that life is unfair and that is the way it has always been. Even though I know and accept the fact that life is unfair, why does have to be like that? We can make life fair if we wanted to. So, what is holding us back?

Quincenera and Rube Goldberg

I have the most random stuff coming at me at one time. Tomorrow, I have to go and support my lovely friend at her quincenera, and I said have to, not because she is my friend, but because I bought a dress. I will go to the quincenera anyway.

Another thing that is weird is my Rube Goldberg project. Yep, the huge chain reaction. Of course, I will finish it soon.

Yeah, just wanted to update about my life. It is a really short post, but I have to do some school work and ready myself for future comings.

I love Holden Caulfield

You will read the title and probably think that I am mental. When I told my friends and my teacher that Holden Caulfield is one of my favorite characters, they looked at me and questioned about my well being. Yes, they were that surprised. However, I know that I am mentally stable and I will tell you why I love Holden so much.

1. He is not the ideal coming-of-age character.
Most coming of age characters are the people we want to be or have a friend that is like that. For instance, who wouldn't want Scout Finch or Stephen Chbosky's Charlie as their friend? However, Holden Caulfield is not the type of person we would want to be friends with and is unlikeable. I am unlikeable, and so are you. Not everyone can be cookie cutter, and that is the reason why I love him so much. He is unlikeable like me, and the image of Holden to me reflects the way I see myself at times.

2. Holden does not get along people around him.
Yes, I get the idea that he is foul mouthed, but past that, no one will talk to him. When he tells the reader that he will ring someone, he does not call anyone because he knows that no one will pick up. It is like when a person looks through the contact screen of their phone and does not call. I am sure we all know how that feels like. Everyone has that little burden in their life, and Holden's inability to make people listen to him reflect about how most of us feel in a conversation.

3. Holden does not complain about losing his innocence.
Despite the fact that he comes off as a rude guy, in the end, he gets harmed. Whenever, he talks about the old times with Jane, where everything is innocent, he switches off to "you" when he is talking about himself. This happens when he speaks about checkers and holding hands and being innocent. It hurts him so much to speak about it that he cannot say that he experienced it himself, but a different person. It is almost like Holden is speaking about his life in an another person.

All in all, those are my reasons for loving Holden Caulfield. Even though many people hate him, I love him to pieces and continues to be one of my favorite characters.

P.S. I have more reasons, but these are the top reasons why.
