OK

OK

Now I bet most of you dont even know where the phrase "ok" even came from, and since this blog is also to enlighten, I thought I'd share my knowlage. "In 1839, only survivor of a slang fad in Boston and New York c.1838-9 for abbreviations of common phrases with deliberate, jocular misspellings (cf. K.G. for "no go," as if spelled "know go"); in this case, "oll korrect." Further popularized by use as an election slogan by the O.K. Club, New York boosters of Democratic president Martin Van Buren's 1840 re-election bid, in allusion to his nickname Old Kinderhook, from his birth in the N.Y. village of Kinderhook. Van Buren lost, the word stuck, in part because it filled a need for a quick way to write an approval on a document, bill, etc. The noun is first attested 1841; the verb 1888. Spelled out as okeh, 1919, by Woodrow Wilson, on assumption that it represented Choctaw okeh "it is so" (a theory which lacks historical documentation); this was ousted quickly by okay after the appearance of that form in 1929. Okey-doke is student slang first attested 1932. Greek immigrants to America who returned home early 20c. having picked up U.S. speech mannerisms were known in Greece as okay-boys, among other things.
     So did you even read all of that? I did. I love random pieces of knowledge!

You know what I've noticed?

Nonconformists are just conforming to nonconformity.

Guess what movie this is from!

"Happiness isn't happiness without a violin playing goat."

Deep Thoughts 4

Nugget would be an interesting name for a pet chicken.

Best Seller


How can every book have "New York Times Bestselling Author" on it? There must be one that is better than the rest, right? Or do they all have the same random amount of sales? Or maybe its all one huge lie trying to persuade me to buy more books........Like I care if its a bestseller or not.......

Change Part 1:

–verb (used without object)
to become different: 
 
to become altered or modified
 
to become transformed or converted 
 
a variation or deviation; alteration:  
 
So what is change, really? How can one change permanently? I think that most people change (or at least are willing to to THINK about it) if they are in pain. Everyone is familiar with this kind of thing, right? When there's something in our life that makes us unhappy or uncomfortable we'll probably hope it will go away. If it doesn't, we start with baby steps to change the situation. But, if that doesn't work, we get to the point that we can't take it any more. That mental or physical pain gives us the courage to take other steps that may be more a lot harder, but are more likely to solve the problem for good. 
     But is pain the only way to change? Will one have to submit himself to an awkward or uncomfortable situation so that she/he can become better? Is all change unwilling in the beginning? These questions just started to come to me yesterday, and I can't get them out of my head! So I decided that I am going to do a bit of research about change. What make people do it, how permanent it is for different people and all that. I think this could get pretty interesting......Lets start with the Bible Dictionary, shall we? I love it! I think its the one of the most interesting parts in there! 
   Change (see also Alter; Conversion; God; Eternal Nature of; Man, New, Spiritually Reborn; Sanctification) So obviously its talking about a change in your soul. Do you think it would be possible to inflict this kind of change on yourself? I mean, we hear about people going through trials and how it makes them better and blah blah blah, but is a trial the only way to truly change?! More thoughts tomorrow.

Your Head is Too Big

This song just made me laugh so hard, the way they sing it and the words just....mesh. And here it is ladies and gentlemen, Your Head's Too Big, by the Ditty Bops

Your head's too big
It's taking up too much room
Your head's too big
It grows like a balloon
And it just might float away
And if you're unluckier than that
Someone such as myself might come along
And it just might pop
It was an accident...it just popped
Your head's too big
It's taking up too much room
It's filling with hot air
You're making your own self swoon
You're in love with yourself
Your head's so big and tall
How is it then your thoughts are small
Your head's so big and tall
You found yourself and lost us all
Your head's too big
It's taking up all the room
It's broken through the atmosphere
You're rubbing elbows with the moon

Good Morning America!!!

Haven't you always just loved the way that sounded? The thought of somebody greeting everybody in this wonderful country all at once just makes me happy! So this is the new site for my blog. My old one was ugly, boring, and lame. The purpose for my blog is to 1. Let random people know my thoughts on random subjects 2. To enlighten! and last but not least and maybe not even possible.... 3. To inspire! I love poetry, funny quotes, and inspiring thoughts. So if you know of some, PLEASE SHARE!

Deep Thoughts 3

Its funny that pirates were always going around searching for treasure, and they never realized that the real treasure was the fond memories they were creating.

Deep Thoughts 2

Broken promises don't upset me. I just think, why did they believe me in the first place?

Retail Value

So this is not as depressing or teenage angsty as it seems, but I am entertained by the message. This blog is for education after all.

 We're not out just to offend the world
But somebody needs to make this known
All of us are full of insincerity
And none of us can admit we're wrong

I've been searching everywhere to find
An explanation as to why
I can't believe in me anymore

So sell your soul, trade in your innocence
There's such a high demand for minds that live in ignorance
We all gave in somewhere along the road
To buying all the mediocrity that we were sold

Everyone is so afraid to die
‘Cause everyone believes in truth
But nobody ever really thinks
That what is right for them is right for you

And I just want an answer as to why
No one can look me in the eye
And say what they believe anymore

8. WHAT WAS I THINKING!



The other day I got out my can opener and was opening a can of worms when I thought, "What am I doing!??!!?"

4. Get it together epiglottis!



I have recently had the unfortunate experience of breathing water. It is awfully unpleasant, and I don't recommend it. It was actually kind of a funny story, because while I was eating lunch today I had it happen to me in the middle of our busy lunchroom. I always bring my lunch from home, and there are many many reasons, that are too obvious to explain. Anyway, there is always a problem that everyone has if they bring a lunch from home. It is that those dang capri suns always run out so quick! So after I began making that "skiiiieeekk" noise that you hear when its all gone, I decide to show everyone at my table how a human lung works. So I blow into my empty capri sun bag, and it blows up real huge, and then as I am about to inhale, I get this crazy thought, "suck all the air back in as fast as you can, because that will probably scare allie" So of course, I try it. And guess what? All of the sudden, my capri sun wasn't so empty after all, and I breathed in a mouthful of Pacific Cooler. I think my epiglottis (the flap that helps you swallow so you don't let anything go down the wrong tube) is malfunctioning. Dang.

7. Just you wait mathematics, just you wait.




You'll be sorry, but your tears'll be to late!
You'll be broke, and I'll have money;
Will I help you? Don't be funny!
Just you wait, 'mathematics, just you wait!
Just you wait, 'mathematics, till you're sick,
And you scream to fetch a doctor double-quick.
I'll be off a second later And go straight to the the-ater!
Oh ho ho, 'mathematics, just you wait!
Ooooooh 'mathematics!
Just you wait until we're swimmin' in the sea!
Ooooooh 'mathematics!
And you get a cramp a little ways from me!
When you yell you're going to drown I'll get dressed
and go to town! Oh ho ho, 'mathematics!
Oh ho ho, 'mathematics! Just you wait!
One day I'll be famous! I'll be proper and prim;
Go to St. James so often I will call it St. Jim!
One evening the king will say:
"Oh, Holly, old thing,
I want all of England your praises to sing.
Next week on the twentieth of May
I proclaim Holly Ann Huff Day!
All the people will celebrate the glory of you
And whatever you wish and want I gladly will do."
"Thanks a lot, King" says I, in a manner well-bred;
But all I want is 'mathematics 'ead!"
"Done," says the King with a stroke.
"Guard, run and bring in the bloke!"
Then they'll march you, 'mathematics to the wall; 
And the King will tell me: "Holly, sound the call."
As they lift their rifles higher, I'll shout:
"Ready! Aim! Fire!"
Oh ho ho, 'mathematics,
Down you'll go, 'mathematics!
Just you wait!

So I have almost have straight A's right now. Only because of that stupid B in Algebra. Ugh, if only. People, let me spread some wisdom. HAND IN EVERY ASSIGNMENT! EVEN ONE STUPID 52 POINT ASSIGNMENT CAN KILL YOU!  That is really all I have to say. Oh, and that in My Fair Lady, does Henry Higgins end up with Liza after all? I couldn't tell.

6. Complications.

So I have many lists. Yes I do, and to clear up some previous confusion, they are all about people. My first list, is my Hate List. Now that sounds very pessimistic and cynical, but if you're on the hate list, you deserve it. My next list, is my Everyone Else list. That is just anyone and everyone that i've met that dont have much of an impact on my life. The third list is my Friend list, and that is just all the kids that make me laugh and that I keep close to me. My final list is The Favorite List, and those are the people that I just love to be around, who also make me laugh. Now where do you fit in you might ask? Well, I wont tell you because that just complicates things.

9. Lets be aware of the environment now, shall we?



Instead of putting a quarter under a kids pillow, how about a pine cone? That way, he learns that "wishing" isn't going to save our national forests.

3. A Round of Applause Please



So today I had one of those moments where all you can say is "zing". You know what I mean, right? When you say something incredible in the right place, and at the right time. Those moments are insanely rare, so when you have them, you instantly know. Now I know this may come as a shock to some of you, but i'm not the most subtle person around. But I do try, I really do. Anyway, so I was in a class this morning, and in that class, my seat is in the location next to a very interesting person. I will not say this individuals name, because this is after all, a public blog. So anyway, one of my friends in that class was asking about the car I have to drive, which is by now, a very famous car. Small, blue, and stick-shift. What more could you want? Anyway, one of my friends joked around about me not being able to see over the steering wheel, and I told him i could see plenty well, thank you very much, and the kid next to me says "i'm taller than you" so I say "I'm older than you" and then he says "I have my permit" and I smile and say "I have my license." And the kids mouth just shuts, and he turns back to the front of the classroom. A few minutes later, this kid is doing crazy motions in the air with his arms, so I give him this really weird look, and he says "you dont know me well enough to look at me like that." and my brilliant mouth says "yeah, and I don't want to." And now for some crazy reason, this kid is really nice to me now. :D
