Pop Kiss-offs vs Today's Happy Pop Hits

Pop Kiss-offs.

The songza playlist I'm currently blasting into my eardrums.

Description: Been wronged by your sleazy ex? Tired of your lover's lies? Vent your broken-hearted frustration with this collection of violent and defiant breakup songs. And remember: you deserve better. 

Now, before you draw conclusions or anything, I have not been wronged by my sleazy ex, nor am I tired of my lover's lies. Refer here for my explanation of my single-ness. It's actually pretty great

The words that stuck out to me in the description are those that are bolded and italicized. Why? Because they're great.

frustration; Yeah. I'd say I'm a little frustrated with myself/life right now.

you deserve better; Normally when people say that, it's about an ex special someone. In this case, it's about an ex self. No, it isn't about a boy. Again, refer to my 'single-ness' post.

I hate ranting blog posts. Mine or anyone else's.

So, no, this isn't a ranting post.

But I'm not too thrilled about pretty much everything about me right now.

As I read through these different quotes, I realize I have nothing to say. They pretty much sum it up. As for regrets, I challenge everyone to set their life priorities straight. 

Sometimes, they get a little foggy.

Some people really never realize how good they have it.

Has your mom woken you up, make you breakfast, did something for you, and/or kiss you goodbye in the past week? Go tell her thank you. Some people don't get to come home to her everyday.

Arguing with your siblings? Be the bigger person. Some people don't get to be there everyday in their lives to watch them grow up, give them advice on love and school, buy them ice cream for their first heart break, or tell them yes, their outfit looks good. 

Appreciate. Because sometimes, you don't take them for granted like you should.

And it makes you feel so terrible. 

Make them your first priority. They're way more important than friends.

I wish my family could know how much I really love them.

As for life, when you have the flu and two ear infections, everything gets foggy. You do stupid things, make stupid decisions, and just don't really think. Why? Because it literally hurts to think. And I'm pretty it makes you super emotional.

This is seriously the weirdest blog post ever. 

Oh man. The life of an almost 15 year old teenage girl. 

So crazy.

Not really. 

I don't feel like I have anyone that I can really talk to about my problems. So I guess I just blog about them and how to solve them . . . Whatever. It helps.

I just want to dance my life away.

That is all. 

Life gets better guys. Just hang in there. You're the only one who can really make you happy.

"Things will get better in the end. If they aren't better, then it isn't the end."

Word.

My playlist now: 

Today's Happy Pop Hits.

Where Are All of the Decent People?

BEWARE: This is a ranting blog post. Read at your own risk.

My question of choice recently; What happened to people???

There used to be a time when people really were, just, decent. 

de·cent

 [dee-suhnt]

adjective

1.

acting upon the recognized standard of propriety, goodtaste, modesty, etc., as in behavior or speech.

2.

respectable; worthy: a decent family.

3.

adequate; fair; passable: a decent wage.

4.

kind; obliging; generous: It was very decent of him to lend me hiswatch.

5.

suitable; appropriate

It's really not asking too much. I'm not asking for perfection or anything. Just decency. With maybe a little respect thrown in there as well. That means committing to plans, giving a solid "yes" or "no," NOT flaking out at the last second, "forgetting," or using the 'but you never texted me' excuse. It is just RUDE. Ask me how my last week or so has been... I'm really not a loser. Unless that happened in the past week? Whatever. I think I'm awesome so it doesn't matter.

Anyway....

I'm done ranting now. Phew.

Now on to the olympics. 

Holy hot men!

Tom Daley. How could you not want to just kiss that face?? I can't tell if I want to pinch his cheeks and kiss his forehead, or just plant one on his lips. Either way, I'm pretty smitten. And his voice!? OH MY. 

That body... Mmm. Helllllllooooo....

My other favorite: 

This man, is Matthew Mitcham. Now I'm not going to rave about how hot he is (although how cute is that face?) because he is gay. But I applaud him. And his mother. They inspire me. I won't go off ranting about my opinion on homosexuality right now, but that is only because I already ranted once. Ask me about it anytime and I'll gladly tell you about my amazing uncles and good friend, all of which I absolutely love and support, and how they are fantastic people. Don't judge if you don't know. <3 

Don't approve? Bite me. 

Okay I'm really done ranting now. Where'd all of the love go? 

Long post short; Just be decent and respectful to people. And how about those Olympic divers? Dang.

Well that's enough of my rants for now. Good night.

XOXO,

A Week In the Teenage Life

You know you're addicted to blogging when you feel like you need to apologize for not blogging for 6 days. When you're off doing great things, and you have the thought, "I'm going to blog about this!"

Anyway..

What awesome 6 days I have had! 

I had cheer camp, then I went to my mom's house, then my little brother's birthday (he's finally a teenager!), then cheer pictures, then I took popsicles to the football players to soothe them of their 2-a-days, my brother's birthday party, then ANOTHER birthday party for him. All in six days. 

Starting at the top of that list

Cheer Camp

Cheer camp this year was SO MUCH FUN! 

I feel like my team this year is so much more bonded and everyone is friends with everyone. 

We played on the playground when we weren't busy

Courtney and Madie tried spidering... 

We fit 12 girls in a very small elevator! 

This was our "nice dinner" at Red Rock 

We always made time for the olympics. Women's all around gymnastics!

These. Boys. Are. The. Coolest. They like to fly during lunch!

This is the order I put in at dinner the last night. :)
3 attractive men
a credit card with no limit
and 3 closets
mine is overflowing as it is
A girl can dream right?

My first public bus ride. Ever. In my life.

On the last day when we presented out "secret siblings" with their gifts,  the boys presented our coach with some tampons. They figured since he had spent so much time with us girls... Well... 

I just have to point out that I have the best friend EVER.
He broke into my house to borrow a movie (with my permission of course)
And he left me a note.
He is the sweetest thing ever.
I'm so lucky!
We're married for those of you who don't know

On the bus ride home I had an awesome conversation with a new friend! About an hour after I got home I went to about 6 different stores for my brother's birthday, then down to my mom's house. 

The next day was spent getting ready for (one of) my brother's birthday parties! We made a nice dinner and a homemade lemon poppyseed cake. It was so yummy! I then went and had a fantastic conversation with my cousin. She is so amazing. I don't know how I would have survived some of my life events without her.

Yes, I put his present in a Victoria's Secret bag. 

Today I am back at my dad's. My day consisted of cheer pictures in the morning, seeing my best friend whom I haven't seen in weeks, blogging, taking popsicles to the football team, watching the movie Juno (which was fantastic!), and finishing off with another birthday party for my brother.

My Dad wrote the wrong date for the cake, so instead of having birthday cake, we had birthday pie.

The fact that school starts in two weeks is really just blowing my mind. 2 weeks. 14 days. Holy crap. I'm so not ready.

For now...

XOXO,

Halli
