I was born this way, baby.

I've been doing a lot of "not thinking" in the last couple weeks.
Just to, you know, enjoy myself like a kid at Disney World.
Since then, I've:
changed my major
chewed out my roommate
made a couple more friends
become a volleyball coach
bought an amazing pair of boots
blogged less
and stayed very busy.

It has been great.
I recommend the empty mind to anyone.
"For the empty mind is the most open mind."

You know who said that, right?
Me.
yeahh I just wrote it. I didn't even know if it would make sense, but it does. SO, yeah, you can quote me on that.

You know, I have always wanted to be one of those people who are famous for their quotes. A quotoisseur, if you will.
Like Winston Churchill, or Bob Marley...



"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."
- Sir Winston Churchill


I mean how clever is that?
He had to know the minute those words came out of his mouth that people would be quoting him for generations.

Unless...
no...
Do you think he pre-wrote his stuff?
Surely not.
That'd be like saying Bob Marley only said those things because he was high.

Now that's a predicament.

Who knows. Anyway, believe it or not I have had plenty of things to blog about lately.
Like how I have the personality type that cannot be defined, even by the professional development personality quiz.
"I am not a word, I am not a line, I am not a girl that can ever be defined." - Nicki Minaj
And how I find myself comparing my lifestyle to that of a caveman to make myself feel better.
And the best: the fact that I am assistant coaching a volleyball team of 13 year olds who thought I was joining their team, not coaching.

But since I'm "not thinking" about things, I haven't wanted to sit down and dwell on them.

But thanks to having followers, I feel the need to finish what I started.
I feel the need to continue writing. To continue sorting through my mind. To continue, not going crazy.
And to continue my journey to becoming a great quotoisseur.
To quote Nicki Minaj (again)
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
to fly

Congrats on the Volleyball gig! That's a fun job! Also? For quotes - kind of in mind of your previous post quote on examined mind? Here's one: The examined life is no picnic.

I don't know who said it, but it's a good one.
