Tens of Thousands of light..

Usually around about November i'm ready for Christmas. That wasn't the case this year. This year i didn't really get excited for christmas until about a week ago. I decided to put up Christmas lights while my parents were out and i did so alla Clark Griswold (pictured below) with a staple gun. Nothing quite says christmas like him on the roof of his house putting up his lights.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

P.s If theres any confusion as to who this man is and what he's doing, watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Trust me. Watch it!

The answer..

Ok so many of you misunderstood what i meant by my previous blog. I wasn't looking for guesses as to where i saw these people as much as the situation they were in. Anyway, for those of you who said on a bus, you were right. But for me it wasn't important that they were on the bus..but twhat they all did on the bus that touched me. When the bus stopped outside the CNIB, a blind person got on, obviously. For those who don't know what CNIB is...it stands for Canadian National Institute for the Blind. Lots of people on the bus so it looked like a difficult situation would arise. Firstly, the elderly woman helped the blind woman towards a nice group of people in the bus, and the business man helped clear the way. Upon seeing this, a big and tlal basketball player cleared his throat and offered his seat to the woman.
To some this might not seem liek a big deal, but it was quite a sight to see. Pre-Christmas spirit. HURRAH!

A business man, an elderly woman and a basketball player..

Ok, my question to you is..what kind of situation in our world today would i have seen this small collection of people? I'm looking for your honest feed back, as the reason behind this is to see what kind of environments people would most expect to see business people, elderly people and big black basketball players all in the same situation. I will post the answer after i get some feedback on what you all think. Hope to hear from some of you..

Part 8: If i could be a ninja turtle..i'd be..

RAPHAEL!!
I mean come on. His name, his attitude, his stabby stabby things i think are by far the coolest attributes therefore making him the best out of the 4 ninja turtles. Disagree if you will, and if you will, tell me why. Oh and yes i know Matt i cant remember what his stabby stabby things are called but i'm sure you will tell me!!

Part 7: If i could be a wheel..i'd be a..

FERRIS WHEEL!!

Ok think about this for a second. Arguably the biggest wheel in the world, i think. Except the London Eye in England..its massive compared to the normal ferris wheel but i'm sure their are some pretty big ferris wheels. Anyway, yea. I'd be a ferris wheel..what about the rest of you??

Part 6: If i could be an animal..i'd be an..


ARMADILLO!!
I mean look at it. It's the epitomy of the perfect animal. Not only is it "kind of" cute and cuddly, but it's self defense mechanism is second to none. This animal, unlike others, rolls itself into a ball in it's own hard shell to not only defend against others but also roll around freely. Fancy, eh? Oh and it keeps out aliens from reading your brain waves, or something along those lines. So, animals, what would YOU be? Answers welcome!

Part 4.5: If i could be a skittle..i'd be a..


YELLOW ONE!!
I wasn't planning on doing a blog about Skittles, i really wasn't. I know people are probably rolling my eyes that i do blogs like this but come on people, if you don't like it don't read it. But some people enjoy responding to this so deal with it. Haha anyway the next part of my blog series is about chairs but something interesting happened at the bus stop today so i decided to do an interval between 4 and 5 to tell you about it.
The reason i chose Yellow out of all the rest is because it is the most resillient. Here's why. I was at the bus stop today, waiting for the bus and eating my skittles when i decided to reactivate an old game i used to play called "Crush the Skittle". In this game the objective is to throw numerous skittles onto the road into on coming traffic and see what happens. So i switched it today and made it into a survival game and wanted to see what colour could outlast the others. Clearly, by the title of this blog you know yellow won. Oh, and HOW.
After green and red were demolished by cars, orange was next. It took the axe when a mini came by and crushed it into millions of pieces. Purple almost didnt get crushed at all because it got clipped by a car and was heading towards the snowbank when another car crushed it. It basically blew up in front of my eyes. Yellow on the other hand, was doing well. First a car clipped its side but it didnt even move. Secondly, and no joke htis is honest to goodness fact people, the Yellow skittle withstood a bus driving over it. BOTH the front AND the back wheel rolled over it but it was still in one piece. Oh and then i got on the bus so i don't know what happened to the little skittle, haha i rhymed. Anyway i don't know how many of you are groaning because you think this is corny but i thought it was amazing that such a little piece of candy can with stand such amazing odds. ANd i don't know why but going into exams that gave me a lot of hope that if a skittle can withstand a bus, i can withstand an exam. So, what kind of skittle would YOU be?

Part 4: If i could be a Simpsons character..i'd be..


GROUNDSKEEPER WILLY!!
Reason: Well. It's Groundskeeper Willy. One of the most underrated Simpsons characters out there today. This guy is not only fashionable with his suspenders but i don't know if anyone ELSE has noticed..but when he says things..they're Golden. Like the "football" Nelson throws him when Lisa likes Nelson, and nobody likes Milhouse? Come on that's Gold.
Favourite Moment:
Willy: Now go run home to your shack
Lisa: I live in a House!
Willy: Oh well Lawdy-Daw college girl!
I don't know why that's my favourite it's just another thing Groundskeeper Willy says that makes me crackle up like you wouldn't believe. Anyway now that people got the hang of this i want to know who you'd want to be..and why..like the reason, like i did. And also i don't want you to just think up a character and that's it. I want a favourite moment! Not word by word but general gist. Alright, GO FOR IT! Rock on. It's 4:18a.m. and my essays done. GOODNIGHT!

Part 1: If i could be a Superhero, i'd be...


COLOSSUS!
Height: (normal) 6 ft. 6 in. (armored) 7 ft. 5 in.
Weight: (normal) 250 lbs. (armored) 500 lbs.
Eyes: Blue, (transformed) Silver
Hair: Black
Strength Level: In his normal human form Peter Rasputin possesses the normal human strength of a man of his age, height, and build who engages in intensive regular exercise. As Colossus he can left (press) at least 70 tons under optimal conditions.
Known Superhuman Powers: Colossus is a mutant with the superhuman ability to convert the tissue of his entire body into an organic steel-like substance, granting him superhuman strength and a high degree of resistance to bodily harm. This substance, resembling organic steel, is of unknown composition but appears to be analogous to osmium and to carbon steel. He is able to transform into this armor-like state at will (the process is virtually instantaneous) and remain in that form for an as yet undetermined amount of time. (The longest time he has remained in armored form so far has been five days). Once in his armored form he remains so until he consciously wills himself back to normal. If he is rendered unconscious, however, he spontaneously reverts to his normal form. While in his armored state, Colossus possesses the same degree of mobility that he does in his normal form.
Thanks to MarvelDirectory.com for the info..but the real question is..
Who would YOU be..leave comments i'm interested! And please don't every girl pick WonderWoman. She isn't even that great..

Apology.

Ok, now i don't know how to word this. But to anyone i've ever hurt or annoyed with any of my actions, i'm sorry. You guys don't deserve the attitude i sometimes dish out so i apologise. Luckily for you guys i'm not going to be around much in the new semester. So you guys won't have to put up with my occasional nuissance.

Random sidenote: I found italian sausages in my freezer. They aren't THAT small when they're cold, either..

Bad Day

an interesting thing happened today.
Well, it kinda coincides with last night. On the way home from Wendy's with jordan and ray jordan asked who sang the song, "bad day". Never having heard of the song before, i brushed it off as an i don't know..knowing full well i'd either check that night or today. Those kind of questions bug me. Like things i don't know, i think it's like an inferiority complex or something. So this afternoon i googled it..and came up with Bad Day, by David Powter.

See lyrics here: http://www.letssingit.com/?/daniel-powter-bad-day-jcs62pq.html

One line caught my attention: So where is the passion when you need it the most?

That got me thinking. Where is MY passion where i need it the most? Is it in the bible? I don't know. Is it in prayer? I don't know. All i know is it's in God. But sometimes knowing something you need is in God isn't enough. Often throughout life we just tag the whole, when i need him i can just turn to God. If i don't need it tohugh, he can just wait. That's not fair people, God doesn't want us to come to him when we need him most. He wants us to come to him ALL THE TIME.

So i came to a conclusion...recently i've been in a lull. And i couldn't figure out why. Like i couldnt seem to get happy. And i realised, i AM happy i just don't know it. I'm too busy waiting for the lull to happen so that God can help me fix it! Then, when i have a good day i'm just waiting for the lull. I should start praising GOD for good days too! Forget waiting for a bad day to pray to him, why not pray in joy. Pray becaues i'm happy! I can't expect a good day to go bad, or IT WILL.

If i take this one day at a time, thank God for the good uns and pray to God because of the stress of the bad uns..i'm taking the right steps. But let me ask you this..

Where is the passion when YOU need it most?
