So I've noticed that I've used this blog as more of a depressing emo/pessimist rant corner than a nest of unique ideas. We need, as Quail would say, some inanity!
So it's time to change! And I'd also like to revamp parts of my personal lifestyle that just aren't working out.
I know some of you out there reading this are high achievers. It's so typical nowadays. We often lose ourselves in the pool of negativity instead of focusing on the happy! Getting a test grade should not be "Oh no, it's not 100!" but instead "Yay! An A!" And yes that first statement may sound stupid and unreasonable. Which is the whole point of this blog, as that is what I and a few of my acquaintances are guilty of.
I have horrible technique when I lion dance. Lately I've been so blah about that whole thing and adding it to the mountain of stressful things that make Hawk awkward. I started losing my previous affinity for dancing. I was so focused on trying to get the head movements down that I didn't jump around and move as much, convinced that it would look horrible. But I realized that even if I'm a slow learner or I have a mountain of reasons why I can't perform well a certain day, I have cardio. And I'm damn well going to use it. We all have our own styles. So what if my lion looks a little crazy? It's gonna be a happy, bouncy little fool.
And for every person who is a jerk or every parent who demands too much and gives too little, there are two people out there who would want to go to the mall and hang out with me--or maybe just to the park to roll down (and up) the grassy hills and eat leftover turkey and mashed potatoes with our fingers.
Being so focused on the things you need to do instead of what you've already accomplished makes for a sad bird.
...Now, having read this, go forth and be productive.
