Entry #6 - The Last Love

Now I'm sure some of you may wonder why it is that I talk about love so often. I talk about it because I never used to understand it. I used to think that love was nothing more than a chemical reaction in the brain. A reaction caused by the release of Oxytocin and Dopamine. In all honesty, I felt as though love itself was false. There are always going to be reasons for people to feel this way. I even wrote about my experience with it in my last English paper. It would be so much easier if our soul mate had a matching tattoo that made them easier to find. I'm sure we can all agree on that.

The video "The Last" by Wong Fu Productions - Posted Above - really struck a chord with me. A simple question. "How many have you loved?" Most people would say "You're my one and only." But he states that he has loved five girls. Who, What, When, Where, and Why. Who he loved was a girl from college. What he loved was an old friend. When he loved was his first girlfriend in high school. Where he loved was the girl he met in Los Angeles. Why he loved was a close friend of his who passed away. All of which were people who shaped who he is. It is because he loved them that he loves the way he does.

---

So how many have there been and how many more will there be? Every person you love shapes who you are. It is because you loved them that you are the way you are. It's what makes you, you. It doesn't matter who your first love was or how many you loved after. What does matter is who your last love turns out to be. So tell me... Who do you think will be the last?

Entry #5 - Technological Corruption

There are many different takes on what Earth will be like in the future, but what will actually become of the human race? Will we even still live on Earth? Or will be be out in space on great ships? The possibilities are endless. Technology may impact our lives in a positive way but it is also affecting us in a negative way. We have become so dependent on technology that we don't seem to notice the world around us. Even now, as I type this blog entry, I am barely focusing on the outside world. No one stops to talk to me because I am on my laptop and I have my headphones on. I've basically hung a "do not disturb" sign on me. Is this how we humans should go through life?

In this clip from the movie WALL-E -One of my favorite movies- we see how technology seems to envelope our lives. The man and woman literally knocked out of their seats finally recognized that the "Utopia" they had been living in wasn't as amazing as they had thought. Everyone around them is so enveloped in their fancy chairs that they don't even pay attention to anything that's going on around them. Is this the future we're headed towards? 

I feel as though if we don't start being more social with each other, this may be what our future is like. Earth will be destroyed and humans will no longer care to know other humans face to face. Remember when you were a kid and all you ever cared about was making new friends? How many kids do you know that feel that way in this time period?

---

So now that you've read this think for a minute... How often do you sit in a crowded place and pull out your phone or put on your headphones? We should all go out and try to make new friends by actually talking to people. Go out into the world and meet someone new. You won't regret it.

Entry #4 - The Truth About Introverts

Everyone seems to put these labels on introverts. They assume that we want to be alone because we hate people or because we are just sad. I'm here to tell you that this isn't the case. We introverts don't spend time alone because we hate people. We actually enjoy socializing with other people. It can just be a bit exhausting. Watch the video below and you'll understand what I mean.

As stated in the video, extroverts thrive on the company of others. For me, all I need is my laptop or a good song to be content. Being lonely and being alone have two completely different meanings. Just because we don't have people around doesn't mean we are sad. And when we do go out we enjoy socializing. Having to communicate with too many people at once can be a bit much though. There are many things we introverts want you to know. This video explains a little bit about how we feel.

"Constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating." To me, truer words haven't been spoken. So tell me... Have I changed the way you think about introverts?

Entry #3 - Earth And Technology

We use technology every day. For most people, this means using a cell phone to send a text or a opening laptop to surf the internet. But for others, using technology means helping to shape the world. Technology is more than just iPhones and HP laptops. It's everything we use in our daily lives. Our futures will be impacted greatly by technology and its use. How do you think the world will look in the future? 

Will Earth be desolate and destroyed? 

Or will Earth flourish with everlasting life?

I personally hope for the "Customized Lifestyles Scenario". Consumers will become producers and we will be the new Ethos for society. A world characterized by diversity. We should all have some take on what we want Earth to look like in the future, right? I mean, who isn't curious about something like that?

---

I hope the video I shared got you thinking. Earth is ever advancing because of technology. Our world will someday be drastically changed by it. What do you hope for the future?

Entry #2 - The Thing About Short Hair

So I'm sure there are other girls out there who feel the same way I do about having short hair. It can be intense at times and then not so intense other times. Let's face it, having short hair can be great, with the occasional epicness of waking up some mornings and having it look one-hundred percent perfect, or sliding into the bathroom and being able to do a million and one things with it. But sometimes, short hair is not so great. We've all been there, right? You wake up sometimes and your hair is sticking out in every direction, or people come up from behind to talk to you not realizing that you're actually a female.

I decided to cut my hair short in 2011 because I was tired of having long hair. My hair was super thick and extended all the way down to my hips and had been that way for many years. I wanted something different, so my father took me to Walmart and I had them chop it all off. - It may seem weird to go there for a haircut but it's the only place in town that's was able to cut my hair the way I wanted it with no trouble. - I've had short hair ever since that day. 

The video 12 Things Short Haired Girls Know To Be True by BuzzFeed Yellow - posted above - truly defines most of my thoughts when it comes to short hair. I however, never mastered the art of bobby pins. I'm not exactly sure what it is that I would need them for. I barely have any hair to pin back anyway. There are always times when I miss my long hair, but I don't plan on growing my hair out any time soon. For some reason, I feel as though having short hair is perfect for me. It defines who I am as a person. Besides, everyone has a defining factor, right?

Entry #1 - You Want My Opinion?

How do I feel about blogs? To be perfectly honest, every blog is special to someone out here. Whether it be a personal blog or a professional blog, someone, somewhere enjoys looking through it. And plus, someone took time out of their life to make that blog and post things in it. Why should I criticize something someone put time into?

---                             

Here are just a few of the blogs I have read through and enjoyed.

Mind Blowing Science

The blog Mind Blowing Science is incredibly insightful if you like science as much as I do. I am following them on tumblr and it is interesting to see something new from the science world on my dashboard every time I open up tumblr. 

Texts From Kingdom Hearts

                                                                                                                 

 

The blog Texts From Kingdom Hearts is entertaining if you like Kingdom Hearts and extremely random head cannons. This blog in particular interests me because they accept requests from fans for their "text messages" between each character in Kingdom Hearts.

KHInsider 

KHInsider is the most popular Kingdom Hearts blog on the internet. They share any and all information on Kingdom Hearts including - but not limited to - release dates, fan art, and information on collectibles.

I love going through all the different types of blogs and seeing what each one talks about. Every blog is unique in it's own way. Just like humans are all unique, right?
