| | 5 things I don't understand about life:
- Why everyone always seems to be bored and/or dissatisfied with their life.
- Why every xanga site has a little box way back inside it that says "memories," as if you're supposed to randomly start writing down your memories on someone's xanga.
- Why people don't like to read.
- Why I'm still sick.
- Why I can only think of four things right now even though I'm always thinking of things I don't understand about life.
5 things I've learned because of my sickness:
- No matter how many blood tests I take, they're all going to come out negative.
- It's easier to lie when random people ask "how are you?" than to try and explain the truth.
- The whole idea that "God is never going to give you more than you can handle" is silly because you can handle anything if you are forced to.
- I am going to be sick forever.
- No matter how bad it gets it could always get worse, but somehow that thought isn't comforting in the slightest.
5 things I wish I was able to do:
- Like every type of food.
- Always have something clever to say.
- Not be afraid to do things unless they are actually dangerous (like jumping off a cliff or swimming with sharks).
- Read slow moving classics without getting bored.
- Make the most of life, despite my illness.
5 things I wish I had:
- Picture frames to fit all my lovely fairy tale pictures (that came off of a calender but are still beautiful).
- Better video editing software.
- A place in my room to set my dress form (which, by the way, we finally figured out how to adjust).
- Magic potion.
- Some of that bbq pork from that chinese restaurant in Junction City. You know, the place with the really gross water and the waitress who gives out back rubs.
5 weird things I've fallen in love with in a dream (or at least had a crush on):
- A bird that was sometimes called a firebird and sometimes called a snowbird.
- John Travolta's character in the movie Grease (I don't remember his name, probably due to the fact that I've never even seen the movie. Just read about it.)
- This big black guy who was in this Christian band that had one song called "Eva was a mermaid." Only each time they sang it they made Eva a different thing (such as, "Eva was a cheeseburger" or Eva was a mouse"). He also worked in a mechanical pencil factory.
- This guy that controlled (and lived in) the clouds, had really powerful black hands, wore silver earrings that were actually little scissors, and reattached my hand to my arm after it came off when he tried to pull me up to the clouds with a rope tied around my wrist.
- A clothespin.
5 reasons I should end this blog post:
- Hello, I'm making lists, which is pretty much at the bottom of the post totem pole (at least for me.)
- It is totally like, 3:30 A.M. although I'm not really tired and I don't have to do anything tomorrow, which isn't really the point.
- I forgot how to spell Christian (which pretty much means it's time for bed).
- I'm complaining way too much.
- I'm anxious to fall asleep and see what weird thing I'll fall in love with or maybe just get a crush on tonight

No, you don't know me but I think I got here from Kim's site (my daughter btw). I noticed you say you haven't done anything with your life, and other such things. I also notice you've been sick (which tends to make people think they don't do anything. I know the drill). But I do notice one seemingly minor point you make in this particular post - that is that you quoted the "christian saying" that God doesn't give you any more than you can handle. And then you answer it by saying that it is silly. I don't come across too many people that agree with me there so I noticed it. I guess I'm of the opinion that God *often* gives us more than we can handle (or maybe He just does it with the special ones) so that we lean on Him, and then - yes- we have to handle it becuase it is right there. Drivel to some perhaps, but I don't think it is at all. So don't despair - you *are* doing things with your life. You are learning truths. Truths that some never, ever even aproach.
