Get Cuckoo

I'm cuckoo for coco puffs! Nah, I'm cuckoo for "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest". The play was excellent. It was interesting right from the start when McMurphy entered. The book was funny in the sense that it made me laugh. Rucky always yelling his infamous line, and of course McMurphy's pornographic deck of cards. I liked when the men were playing basket ball and Ruckly chased the ball even though he was the hoop.

The play was also sad because in the end McMurphy had to die... but at least Dale Harding carried on his rebellious spirit. I was happy for Harding in the end, that he gained some confedence.

The book was kind of hard to understand for me. I'm more of a visual person, so when I saw parts from the movie it really cleared things up for me. The funny part is that Dale Harding looks freakishly a lot like my uncle Billy.

Any way the wind blows

The future... what do you think of when you hear that? Do you feel scared? Do you feel excited? Or perhaps you feel indifferent.

Most people plan their future. They take steps to go through an imaginary trial and error of "If I do this, then this will happen..." to narrow down a path that fits them best in life.

But, what if we didn't plan our future? What if one lived their life by following whatever opertunity came to them. What if every choice we made was random?

Would life be perhaps more care-free, less stressed, or would it be total chaos?

Journal Blog Entry 11-16-06

So I looked up something to write about. My random result came up as "a blur of ego". My mind instantly jumped to one person I know- Josh. Yes, I can safely say his first name because there are a bazillion Joshs in the USA.

The Josh I know has a HUGE blured ego. Because he hides and supresses so many of his real emotions his outward ego becomes a mess (at least from my opinion). He likes to fit in with the people around him, it's rather sad. If he is around a beautiful bunch of girls his ego will suddenly boost up a lot of points. When he's with his normal friends it will be a normal ego, until girls come rolling around. Yes, girls are the one thing that his life revolves around. Girls have this amazing ability to make Josh's ego sky rocket.
Example: Josh is hanging with his friends. They jokingly push him and Josh thinks it's funny. All of the sudden a girl comes by and his ego goes into totally woman-pleasing-high defense mode. So when they go to push Josh again he suddenly becomes angry and pushes back. Kinda dumb, eh?

He's like that because when I first met him a long time ago he was a "geek". No one liked him, he gotm ade fun of. But I was friends with him. It was me, him, and our little click of geeks (w00t!).
So anyway, a few years roll by and then he goes to middle school. In middle school he somehow became popular, and ever since he has replaced all his old friends with new, popular friends.

A change in daily life

I felt really fatigued over the weekend, as if I wasn't fully awake. It's a really terrible feeling.
This weekend wasn't the only time I've been fatigued. It has been other times too, and it's too often. I didn't know if it was because I don't excersize enough, or maybe I wasn't eating right, or maybe it was stress or sleep...

So I looked it up online. The web site I read from was very enlightening. It made me realize that the main problem is my diet. I eat wayyy to many "processed foods" such as TV dinners and microwave junk. There's no energy in processed foods. The web site reccomended eating lots of vegetables, at least a whole serving a day. Vegetables are a major source of energy as well as good health (and that's good for me because I don't like fruit X_x).

Also I wasn't drinking enough water a day. I learned that for the body to be fully hydrated it needs at least 4pts. (8 cups) of water a day. So I tried thats... Today I drank 8 cups of water, and MAN DID I HAVE TO PEE!!! But ya know what, I didn't get tired! I also had a whole serving of spinach (Yummy ^^)!

Sleep is another major factor that plays into good health. For the sleep part I went to a different web site that gave 29 tips on how to get a good night sleep. The one that caught my attention was the tip that said, "Sleep with little to no light". Man, I can't do that! Not to sound like a baby, but I've slept with a night light for my whole life. I'm not affraid of the dark- I'm not scared that the "boogy monster" is gonna get me or something- Just being in pure darkness freaks me out. I feel really uncomfortable in it. In my room I don't have any external light pouring in too- no street light, no house light, nothing. Anyway, my night-light is dim anyway. It's not like I'm shining a spot light into my eyes, but I can tell it is having an effect on me, a slight one. So I asked my mom to keep an eye out for those old-lady black cover things they put over their eyes when they go to bed. I bet it'll work.

So besides the light waking me up, the only other thing I'll have to worry about when it comes to sleep is my crazy dreams!

Come, step into my mind.

I had a really weird dream (as usual) two nights ago.
I can't remember the entire thing very well, but I ujust wanted to describe the parts that I felt were interesting.


My house seemed larger and the interior was changed to a more fashionable setting. Usually it's only me at home, but in my dream there were many people over. They seemed to be busy cleaning and moving things, as if they were expecting company.
So I'm walking around in my house and I notice a big yummy box of thick doughnuts. I opened up the box, took out a doughnut and ate it. A while later I got hungry again. As I stepped out of my downstairs bathroom I noticed another box of doughnuts in my hallway on a tall tray. The box suddenly dissapeared and and turned into a tray on which the doughnuts now sat.
The most vivied thing I remember about the doughnuts were that they were all different sizes and flavors. There were two very large and thich doughnuts, one powder white the other chocolate-coated. There small ones were mostly chocolate and plain. The medium ones were glazed, plain- strawberry,vanilla, and chocolate icing dribbled on top.

I, for some reason, picked out the strawberry one. Even though I don't really like strawberry flavor, the doughnuts just looked sooooooo delicious as if heaven made it.

Before the dougnut dream I remember there was a part in which I was some dude like Rambo in the middle of the ocean. It was very very stormy and the waves were huge. It was raining and lightning out. There were two very tall towers in the ocean, much like light houses, but they were more like some sort of radio towers. An evil was trying to kill me.

"Now that you are in this part of the ocean," said the evil voice, "I won't have to kill you. The ocean's dragon will."

At that moment I saw this really long, thick, monsterous shadow swimming around below me. As scared as I was I kept me cool and began to swim for the two towers (the towers went straight into the ocean, there was no ledge to hold on to). So as I'm swimming the dragon-serpant bursts out of the water next to me. I try to stay away from it. A huge wave picked me up and threw me upwanrd and forward towards the tower. When I got close I grabbed on (on't ask me how but I did, to a smooth round surface haha). The dragon looked kind of mad because I was out of reach, or was I?
The dream skipped to the doughnut dream after that.

Journal Blog Entry

Awesome! I ACTUALLY got a FAST computer!!! This is like the first time I've EVER gotten a fast computer at the school computers!

I'm sooo happy I got most of my make up work done. I'm a little behind in math and physics because of the Halloween window painting which I participated in. Also, this whole week I've been neck deep in writing essays for English class. I'm so glad that they all end today! Wahahahahahahaa!!

Yesterday I felt a little bad on my way out of physics class. My teacher was explaining how microsoft excell was a really good program and how everyone should use it. My class is doing a physics lab on excell, but since I was out for 2 days I was late to start it. On my way out I asked if I could stay after and get help with it, but my teacher couldn't stay. So we got into this conversation about excell, and he asked me, "What are you going to college for?" and I replied, "For producing and directing (preferably for cartoons, moreso for storyboard)." He really didn't make any sort of "oh, what a cool job" face or expression, he didn't even say anything to me. It was just a blank face, which I took as, "Wow, what a crappy job. You'll never amount to anything in it." I know that that's probably NOT what he was thinking, but, to me it just felt that way. I've had more than one person tell me that my future career is not a bright one. They compare me to all the big directors and producers expecting me to fill their shoes, but it doesn't work like that! Those big time directors/producers were LUCKY to get to the position of fame they are now, just because they had some really increadable idea that no one else had in THEIR TIME.
How do my peers know that I won't make a great new and loved idea for MY TIME? They don't... ;)
