Your thoughts?

The quote I chose from Winston Churchill was "There is nothing wrong in change, if it is in the right direction. To improve is to change, so to be perfect is to change often." I think public opinion has the ability to make us more virtuous. We all except everything to be high standard. We shouldn't ever settle for less than we deserve. My family always ramble about wanting what's best for each other. I truly think that everyone should go through life and experience the good and the bad things. If we don't learn for ourselves, how will we ever learn to handle problems without them being in our business. Change can be great or horrible. The right direction in "changing" can possibly be becoming a better person. Changing the way you talk towards people or even your attitude. I agree with Winston Churchill when he says "to improve is to change, so to be perfect is to change often." In my mind and probably plenty of others, improving is to change. Others may think that you can improve yourself and not change. That is possible...but why improve your self but not try to change? What would be the purpose? Quite some males and females try to change to be perfect and I honestly think no one is perfect. They may think they're perfect in their own eyes but others may think otherwise. We also think we should change for other people to meet their standards.

Classify that!

What kind of music makes me really happy? Probably rap music. I get so hyped and start singing along even if I don't know the lyrics. Check out 21 savage, Kodak Black, Lil Uzi Vert, or Famous Dex. I promise you'll like at least one of them. Even though half the time rap music has profanity in it, the category is still great. Country music is also my favorite. The music is so much more calm and peaceful. Hunter Hayes, Thomas Rhett, and Sam Hunt have to be my favorite country artist. I've been to Hunter Hayes' concert and I had a blast. What kind of music makes me really sad? Artists like Adele or Bruno Mars. Their songs are emotional. Lullabies are slow and the way the beat is going, makes me depressed.

Define with Specifics

Slackers are just like procrastinators. Slackers are very lazy and try to avoid work and effort but procrastinators put things off to last minute. Like getting an essay due in the next few weeks and you wait an hour before class to actually start on your paper. Finding information takes you about 20 minutes and then actually figuring out what to write and making sure your paper turns out good but in reality, you get a bad grade for it because you don't check over your work because you're rushing. Slackers behave very differently than procrastinators. Slackers do not care. I repeat DO NOT. They don't care about what they're making in the class until it's actually time to take an exam. Procrastinators care but it's not important until they get a C on a homework grade. I'm slacking and being a procrastinator because I'm being lazy and doing this blog. I think this blog was due like a month and a half ago but it's done now. Better late than never, right?

Look for the Reason

Some people fall in love with serial killers because...well, I couldn't relate to this. Falling in love most people only look for personality. 90% are worried about looks. I think what's really important is how the person treats you. For example, I know couples that are in abusive relationships but they fail to realize what is actually important. Falling in love with someone who is abusive is way different than falling in love with a serial killer but in my mind, I feel like being abused is like you're with a serial killer because they are hurting you physically, emotionally, verbally, and mentally. Then again, I feel like even if someone loves a serial killer, so what? It might be bad but you love who you love and honestly, I don't think it matters.

Get mad

Literally everything bothers me. I can't even deal with all the things that are going on in this world.  One of the many things that bother me is poverty. Poverty is the state of one who lacks a certain amount of material possessions or money. Absolute poverty refers to the lack of basic needs such as food, clothing, and shelter. Relative poverty takes in consideration individual social and economic status compared to the rest of society. I feel that our world has many people that are poor but don't try to make the situation any better. Some people don't have the motivation to go out and find a job. They are lazy and would rather not go through the process of making their own lives better. I honestly think that if you think you can go out and get money, you can do it, no one can stop you but yourself. I always see people on the side of the road asking for money. I always feel bad because what if that was me in their shoes? What if just a dollar could make a difference? I finally get to eat or drink something. I ask myself that question every time. There was this time, this lady came into McDonald's when I worked there, and she had asked my boss if we would give her free food because she hasn't ate. By the way she looked, it looked like she hasn't ate for days, had a shower, or had changed her clothes in a while. Few months back, a man always came into McDonald's. He would wash himself in the men's bathroom. Basically like a shower. I guess when somebody had found out he was doing that, we had banned him from ever coming back to our McDonald's.

Confession Time

 
A little confession to the attraction of a former bad habit? I would say my bad habit was probably going shopping for things I didn't need. Spending hundreds of dollars on shoes and clothes, when I should be saving up money. Also, going out to eat all the time, going out with my friends to dinner or maybe a movie. If I didn't spend so much money on things I didn't need, I would probably be a millionaire, lol. From what I can remember, I started working two years ago and I could've saved a lot of money. I'm not spending as much money because I'm saving up to get a new car. I realized I needed to get out of this habit because shoes and clothes aren't going really doing anything good for me, well, maybe just making me look like I had style. Another confession I would like to talk about is always getting my way when I was younger but now that I have gotten older and matured, I have realized being stubborn isn't okay. Having to do things on my own is actually another one of my confessions. I use to get things handed to me like it was nothing but now, I'm like wow. A lot has changed but it has changed for the better. I am glad I'm paying for my own stuff because it is getting me ready for the real word, aka, college. Confessing some bad habits isn't so bad.
