Like OMG!
I have realized how much more dumb people sound when they say "like." I am sure it must lower your I.Q a few points.

Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein is THE MAN! Like honestly, I am really facinated by him, more and more everyday. I really want to write a research paper about him, but I have no class to do it for...maybe I will just get ahead on those college essays. haha. But for real, I am really interested in him.
Here are a few of my favorite words from him:
"My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to percevie with our frail and feeble mind."
AMEN TO THAT BROTHER!
"Every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving. "

I am thankful for:
1) My knowledge I have about life, and how short it is. I am glad I understand it so I can use my time wisely. I am also thankful that I understand how precious it is. I am glad I can relate to people. I am thankful that I understand of what some of the evil is in the world, and not to think that it doesn't exist. I am thankful for the things I know, and that I have a passion to learn more. I am also thankful that I use the power I have to change the things in the world that I don't like. And if it is not physical steps to change it, then it is the feeling of compassion, which is always the first step.
2) My healthy body. Without it I would not be able to dance, and that is what I love to do. Even though it can get stressful at times, I am really grateful I have something productive to put my energy and focus into and that keeps my body fit. I am so so so lucky to be healthy, and it is something I try not to take for granted because I can understand somewhat what living with a physical drawback is like.
3) My friends. The ones now and the one who has passed. I am thankful I have the ones with me. I don't really know what I would do without my special few. I am thankful for all of them, and I am thankful for my angels who sent them to me at th most perfect times. I am thankful for Sam and everything she did for me while she was here and all the great memories I have with her. I am thankful for how I grew up with her, and how much I learned while I was around her. I am thankful for the person who I am because of my friends.
4) I am thankful for my family. I am thankful that we are pretty well-off for the most part. Although I do stress about the funds for my sister and I to get to college, I know all will be well. I am thankful that we are better off than most, and don't have to be too stressed out of the money we spend. I am thankful that I have such good parents. They are a perfect balance, not to overbearing and into my life, but we are still fairly close. That is the best I can ask for and it is a lot better than the relationships other teens have with their parents. I am thankful my dad owns a store that I can work at and have a job. I am extremely thankul for my job and I love the people I work with. They are some of my best friends and so unique. They are my out-side of school support and continue to broden my mind and make me laugh everyday. I am so thankful I have a job I that I can somewhat look forward to going to.
5) I am so thankful I live in America. Honestly, although there are a lot of government things going on that I don't agree with, I know I could be a lot worse off. I am thankful for being safe where I live and that I don't have to live in fear.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Thanksgiving, the act of giving thanks. Lets all stop for a bit and remind our selves of the positive things we have going for us. We don't need a special day to do this, it can happen anyday. But it is nice that there is a day that we can stop our daily routine and remind ourselves of the things we truely are thankful for.

Lyrics
I have so many lyrics floating in my head, I just have to get them out somewhere.
"Back in the place when we were young
Back in the place we started from"
-The Redwalls
"And we'll all shine on
Like the moon
And the stars
and the sun."
-John Lennon
"There are books
that never should be written,
There are words
that never should be said.
There is nothing I can do about it
Cause the words are always in my head"
-The Shout Out Louds
"And I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today
So I am endlessly waiting."
-The Counting Crows
"I'm in heaven when you smile."
-The Redwalls
"And instead of saying all of your goodbyes
Let them realize that time goes fast
it's hard to make the good things last
you realize the sun don't go down
it's just an illusion caused
by the world
spinnin' round."
-The Flaming Lips
"Look up
What do you see?
All of you and all of me."
-R.E.M
Of course these just happen to be in my mind at this time. My imagination can fill in the music, vocals, and dramatic pauses so of course it is going to be better in my mind than in yours. The words are only half the preformance and might not mean as much to you as they do to me. And like I said, these are just annoying ones that were attacking my brain at this late hour.
