HEART STATION

This is how I came to school today

I guess I woke up with the wrong foot… Or the wrong pair of shoes. I don’t know what happened, but I came to school wearing two different shoes! At least they’re both Nike, so it wasn’t all that off. I tried making a joke out of it the whole day and have a little bit of fun, even though I was disturbed by it… Jacksy (My English teacher) wisely put it all in one question: “Would you rather have mismatching shoes or no shoes at all?” My pick is a mismatching pair. It was pretty funny to watch people’s expressions when I told them to look at my shoes… A little humor to an embarrassing fact (At least both of them matched my outfit).

Just yesterday I posted about the many different flavors of my life and how I’m using music as a source of inspiration and happiness, and it seems like today served as a challenge to test my theories of embracing challenges that come my way.

Not only did I come to school with mismatching shoes that I didn’t notice until it was pointed out, but I also wasn’t all that happy. I felt like it was a continuation of the hard day I went through recently. I feel like I went badly on the math quiz I took today (And not so bad on the test I took on that same hard day!), but at least I can retake it… But still, it’s bad to have a weighted conscience for something like this.

Today was basically a soap opera. When I discovered that my pair of shoes weren’t really a pair of shoes, (During P.E.) Pamela got hurt with the softball and a boy in our class had no consideration for it, and continued the attempt to burn a player off the game. Everyone noticed and started going against him while Pam was on the floor, in a lot of pain. She needed to be brought up, and the boy who couldn’t even pretend to care was the strongest one. People called him and he ignored them, but when I said that he should bring her up he exploded and started to call me names, including the other people too. He has a really short temper and after his screaming and name-calling fit, he started to cry. It was really annoying, but it was worth it because he got to hear a piece of my mind and I’m sick of him dealing with problems in an aggressive and unnecessary way, and then crying.

I had a weighted conscience for many things, but I still couldn’t not stop to listen to some really great music!

Kimberly Wyatt: A dancer/singer for The Pussycat Dolls. She recorded a song for the deluxe edition of their latest album, Doll Domination, and so far, it’s my favorite song from the album. She covered the song Don’t Wanna Fall In Love, and it’s really good! Reminds me of Britney Spears, kind of, but it still has its own life and spirit. I like it a lot!

Mary J. Blige: Utada Hikaru’s favorite diva (Hikki even confessed that she couldn’t live without Mary J. Blige’s second album). I downloaded her latest album (Growing Pains) and I love Just Fine! It’s a great mood raiser and a fun upbeat song! I’ll be looking at a few more songs by her… She’s worth the listen!

The day doesn’t seem to have gone all that bad as it seemed before, I guess that just a little positivity will do what lots of effort can’t (And vice-versa, of course). Even though there are many tiny little negative things every now and then, I still love where I am!
