Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song

I've decided I'll start writing in this blog again. I want to write in it more often, given that exciting things happen in my life that are worth commenting on. I think I'll try to update it once a week.

It's Sunday and here are my current thoughts/life updates:

  • -"The Wonder Years" on Netflix is really stopping me from getting anything productive done. I've watched 20 episodes of it in the past 2 weeks. I was really surprised that one of my co-workers wasn't familiar with this show, because I just assumed it was sort of a staple of everyone's TV watching. I also like Winnie's glasses and all of her tucked in shirts with belts.
"Once upon a time, there was a girl I knew that lived across the street. Brown hair. Brown eyes. When she smiled, I smiled. When she cried, I cried. Every single thing that ever happened to me that mattered, in some way, had to do with her." - Kevin Arnold

  • I've been thinking a lot about some of the things I'd like to do this summer. I want to start planning ahead, mostly because I'm excited, but also because this is very likely the last summer I'll in that area. I'm definitely going to Washington DC at the beginning of June, but I'd like to make a lot of smaller trips to places like the Smorgasboard, Chip Factory Tour, and the Diner. Just in case I don't get to go to those places again.

  • One of my friend's favorite quotes is: "the key is to surround yourself with people who uplift you, who bring out your best." I've been focusing on this lately because it makes a difference to every aspect of my life. I have made a great effort to surround myself only with people who are not judgmental. Knowing I can be open and honest with my friends is making my life more positive. I am a better person because of the choices I've made lately, and one of those choices has to do with who I spend my time with. Thanks for that, friends.

  • And finally, my dad's cousin just posted on Facebook: "Insanity does not run in my family. It strolls through, takes it's time and gets to know everyone personally." I think this is hilarious.
