Oh, Boys.

Over the years, my taste in boys has been a little... eccentric. They've ranged from the Backstreet Boys to Gerard Way. Oh, and Kurt Cobain. Even though he's dead. He was DAMN HOT.

They can be cute!
  
Well, when I was younger, I always found boys who were tan and active (i.e. Backstreet Boys, N*Sync, Kyle Higgins... Yay grade six!). Somewhere along the way, I learned that boys who look like this usually KNOW how attractive they are and are total assholes about it (pardon my language). So, my young mind expanded, and I discovered guy liner. So I began to find boys like Billy Joel from Green Day (mmm old men....), Alex Evans, Gerard Way from My Chemical Romance, Bert McCracken from the Used and of course, Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy attractive. Now emo boys who whine about their feelings make me want to punch them in their face. Unfortunatly, I still find  Bert McCracken, and Gerard Way attractive... I just can't kill the little scene kid inside.

Look at that face! Don't you just want to hug him and fix all of his problems? I DO.
 
And that takes us to now. My current ideal men? Kurt Cobain, Bam  Margera, all of the Buried Life boys, Robb Pugh from Gracefield and Ville Valo of H.I.M. (Yeah, the guy liner thing is still kind of hot..) I understand that these are ridiculous crushes, espiecally since one of them is dead, but we can all dream.

I want to go EVERYWHERE.

If I could transport myself anywhere in the world for the weekend, I'd go to.. Yeah, I don't know. There's a lot of places that I want to go, and a lot of places that I have been that I would love to go back to. So I'll just make this blog kind of long and list them.



1. Japan
I love big cities, but I also love history. I find anything to do with other religions, like temples and things, freakin' sweet and love to visit them. And I also love to shop. Cultures of other places always intrigue me and I'm a huge nerd but that's fine.


2. Africa
Not for like, a vacation, but to actually go somewhere and help people. I'm mad jealous of Tim, who already got to do this. I feel that in general, we don't impact that many people's lives outside of our social circle. I want to be able to impact the lives of others and make the world a better place for them, and I always feel like I take everything for granted when there are people who have so little. Going to Africa would be like my way of giving back and being able to make my time on earth worth while.


3. Mexico
I went there two years ago, but it was only for a day and I wish I could have stayed longer. I didn't get to see any of the ruins or any attraction type things, so that made me really sad. I've always wanted to go and see those crazy pyramids and climb up one. But I did get to go around in a local market place, and meet some cool people. I love being able to go to different countries and actually be able to see how the people live, not just the tourist-y areas.


4. Cuba
I went to Cuba three years ago, and I loved it. I was in the Granada province, and the beach by our resort was black from volcanic ash or something like that, so it was really cool. Also, our resort was close to the biggest mountain range in Cuba, so me and my family went on a Jeep/hiking tour of the mountain, and visited a farm , were we got freshly made coffee (like they just picked the beans, so good) and they made us a meal. After that, we hiked up the rest of the mountain, and we went to a clearing in the area that had a waterfall into this crazy deep river, that we swam in. Then we had some guy come in and tell us the story of Fidel Castro (he did it Cole and Matt style, playing his guitar the whole time) and it was just so beautiful there and I'd love to go back. I also went around and visited some schools, and got to go and talk to the kids. I brought school supplies to give to the kids, and they were so thankful and it made me feel like I made a difference to them. And It would just be sweet to go back.


5. Europe.
I would want to go for longer then a weekend, but whatever. My cousin and I have always talked about going backpacking in Europe once I graduate high school, and just adventuring around, seeing the sights and such. I doubt it'll actually happen, since we're both pov, but we can dream.


6. California
Yeah, not that impressive as a last choice. But I would go there for a weekend and buy myself a 1965 Split Top Volkswagon Van. It's my dream vehicle, don't judge.
This will one day be mine. Jus' sayin.

I Hate Everything.

Thinking of one specific thing that bothers me is kind of hard, since a lot of things piss me off. Tiny little things like people who yell in the hallways in the mornings (they have no business being that happy that early in the morning) or bigger things like people who stay in abusive relationships.


But the ONE THING that makes me angry every single time, is people who constantly TAP ON EVERYTHING.


For instance, there's one obnoxious kid in my comm tech class who I've yelled at SINCE GRADE SEVEN to stop tapping in my presence. It's hard enough to concentrate in class without the added disraction of a constant back beat to what I'm doing. But anyway, this kid does. not. ever. stop. tapping. Now, if it was just tapping his fingers or tapping his hand, I could deal with it. But he PRETENDS THE WORLD IS A DRUM SET, including invisible cymbals and foot pedals. I can't even talk to this kid civilly anymore. Every time he's near me, I want to bash my head of the table so I don't have to hear him anymore. You think after five years, he would learn and just stay away from me to avoid the verbal bashings that I give him on a regular basis, but all that stomping and tapping must have dislodged his brain, because he still constantly does it.


I don't deal with things that bother me in the best way I suppose, I usually just yell at the person and tell them to shut up before I punch them in the face, which usually works, for a while at least. I've had kids tell me that it's not their fault, they're ADD (no offence to anyone..), they can't concentrate without doing it, they NEED to be doing something with their hands.
WELL TAKE SOME DAMN RIDALIN AND SHUT UP.


Well, that's what makes me angry. So, if you're excessively tapping around me, just know I'm thinking murdurous thoughts.
