Music (and shtuff)

It's amazing how music can change how I feel.

On nights like tonight, when I'm feeling down, and worried, and nervous, and anxious I can turn on my iPod, turn on a band I know can make me feel better, and just get lost in the music. It's like it takes me away from all my problems, even if it's just for a little while. It makes me feel like someone out there knows how I'm feeling. And I can listen to certain songs that describe my feelings perfectly. Like it was written for me. It almost makes me feel connected to the artist.

But the same way that music can make me feel better, there are songs that bring back memories that just make me feel sad. They remind of things that I miss, or things that were bad at the time, and make me feel that way again.

I think tonight, I'm gonna listen to the first kind.



People-

I'm not a real big fan.
I'm sorry, but... I dunno how to explain it.
People bug me.

But also, I love people.
Sometimes, people you don't expect will say something and not even realize how much it can help you. The other day, I was in one of my 'moods' and someone who I worked with a few years ago for a couple months just made a small comment that really helped me. He's quite a bit older than me, but not an old guy... I don't talk to him all that often, but his small comment on Facebook just helped me see that other people go through all the same stuff I am.

I dunno, that's just what I've been thinking about tonight, ha ha.

Here we go!

This is my first blog. After reading a blog of a friend of mine, he suggested I make my own blog. So here we go... I don't even know what to talk about... I don't have deep thoughts or anything. I'm usually thinking about Dora the Explorer, or golf.

Here's something though!

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about people. And how judgemental I am. There are some people who in the past I've looked at and thought that they were weird, and I wouldn't want to be seen talking to them. Which is bad, I know. But, lately, I've made an effort to talk to people who I havn't before, and it's really nice. It's nice to talk to people who you have stuff in common with, especially if you didn't originally think you would.

Yeah, so that's a little personal 'goal' I've been working on.

Plus when I said 'goal'... I never know when I'm supposed to use ' or "... But the the first one looks better, so I usually go for that... ha ha.
