It's been forever... But Tumblr made me do it.

I'm sorry that I haven't written on here in a while. I've been so busy... and to be honest... another blogging site has caught my attention. 
It's hard to make friends on here, and spread the word. 
After looking at my STATs and comparing them... I've found that Tumblr does a better job conveying my message. 

I'll be honest... I miss this blog. I miss how much time I spent on it. 
But I have to focus on having a life outside of the internet for now. 

So hopefully... I'll see you all soon.

90's kids.

With all of the technology I have to keep up with these days... it's no surprise that I haven't been able to write a blog on here recently. 
It's fine to blame it on me though... because my 90's kid brain doesn't keep up with all of this social networking like some of the kiddies running the streets these days.

You know... when I was little, I had a very limited amount of technology to keep up with. 
(And yes... that included a portable CD player. I'm old, I know.)

Unfortunately, I also used to have something called a "tan". They now do that in a bed full of lights. There's a wildabeast named Snooki who could tell you all about that. 


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wonder what else has changed. Despite the obvious physical changes that my generation has endured lately... what else has changed? 
Let's go on a flashback trip... for all of my 90's kids...




I know you know what this is. But if you're already having some memory problems.... (Feel old yet?) This is a portable CD player. The first one came out in 1978, and the one you bought was called a "Diskman". Kind of like a "walkman"... which our parents had. Oh technology. 



Let's see.... remember this?




This, my dear friends- is a Tamagotchi. I remember playing with these when I was in 6th grade. 
(Back when 6th grade was in ELEMENTARY school.)
The original Tamagotchi was released in 1996, in Japan. 



Now this is going to tickle your pickle. I know you know what THIS is. 



The first GameBoy (without color) came out in 1989 in North America. You like it.




Now let's see... spam the pictures time. If you know what ANY of these are... you should feel old. 






The first Harry Potter book came out in 1998. How old are you feeling?
I'll break it down.
That was 14 years ago. 






Hey Arnold. 




Arthur





Feel old.

Good day to be a 90's kid.

Sitting here- watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone. 


It's funny, when I was a little girl- this movie would scare the hell out of me. I would sit on the couch thinking; "Is he going to get away from you-know-who before he tries to kill him?" or "What happens if he gets the stone"?
It was usually followed by a few jumps, and tiny hands covering my eyes,
as the man with the funny nose ran after the little boy.


Wow... that has such a different meaning at my current age.




Yeahhhhhhhh....




And seriously- for those of you who have watched all of the movies... what's up with Hermione's hair when she was younger?




Hmm... Maybe it's time for a little "evolution of Hermione's hair", in progression of each movie.








1.) Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone












2.) Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)














3.) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)










4.) Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)







5.) Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007)









6.) Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)







7.) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010)




























What a babe.

I'm talking to you.

I'm going to put this bluntly- because I just received some information that was a bit unsettling. 


It's always horrible when you trust someone, and they let you down. 


When someone promises you something- and they don't live up to it. 


There's only one person I'm really talking to, right now. 
And I know they blog quite a bit. Hopefully they'll see this and come to the realization.
And I hope it weighs on their' conscious, because they've turned into the person they always said they would never be. 
And I promise you...
The person you claim to be anymore- isn't what you wanted. I promise that you'll regret becoming the selfish, impure, lustful person you used to dread.

Look here...

I have to be honest here. I've been neglecting this blog. My last post was talking about how I'm going to "write more often". Unfortunately, that was an empty promise. It's hard to write here.
Kind of because I don't know what to say. 
Usually, I have events that go on in my life... and I have things to write about. I have strong opinions that I can write about.


There's just not much going on. 


I finally came out of my room today at 2pm. I did my nails yesterday, and put acrylics on. It was easier than I thought it would be. Although... It's hard to get the stupid things on before the acrylic mixture hardens. I had to try twice on my thumb. First world problems. 




I even went over-board with the color and decided to re-paint it. 




I've also gotten an instagram. (If you can't tell by the photos.)
You can follow me at Omglizzi.


Really, I've just been packing. I'm moving in 15.5 days. (April 16th instead of the 28th) Really soon... I need to get myself together. We're also taking a trip to Utah on the 27th. My birthday week is going to be crazy...


So let's see... I will be TRYING to write more. Okay? Okay.

LOOK, it's me.

Hey guys! I know... it's been about a month since I've updated my blog. There's been a lot of things going on, and I took a little break from the internet. (Well needed... I assure you.)
But instead of giving you something HORRIBLY long and wordy... I'll just give you a list of the new things that have been keeping me away from the talkie-box I spend too much time on.

-Moving in with Sean on April 28, and starting packing
-Visited Northern Colorado for Spring break, and spent some time relaxing
-I got a promise ring from my amazing boyfriend. (He's too sweet to me sometimes.)


-I'm pretty sure I've been to the dentist twice in the time I've been away...
-And last, but not least, I've been doing things that are more important than playing online.

Oh you hush... You know the internet is like the a mind-controlling boss.

Which reminds me. I've gotten a lot of little gaming time in. (:
When I was up in NoCo, Sean and I re-bought Kingdom Hearts, and bought a game that was new to both of us: "Shadow of Colossus". 
It was fun.
Shadow of Colossus is all about the bosses. We decided it would be a sick tattoo idea to have the little warrior standing with his back towards us, and the giant boss towering over him. Nice nice.
It's the little things.

Honestly... I don't have tons of reasons for being absent. I'm just going to leave it at "It was necessary". But I'll be writing more blogs for you guys in the near future. Possibly every day. But we get there when we get there. Tumblr is just so much easier.

And prettier.

Ah well. It's 3am, and I haven't yet gone to bed. So I suppose I should get on that. 
Good morning everyone!


Monday, February 20, 2012

I'm so tired.
Physically and emotionally, I'm just beat.
I've gotten a maximum of 2 hours of sleep, and that wasn't until early this morning. 


I just can't catch a break. As soon as I think I'm doing something right... everything turns around and bites me. 


I just wish that someone would think I'm irraplacable for once. I always seem to be disposable.
I feel like a scratching post.
I just want one person to text me. Just one. 
I could care less about anyone else.
Just one..


I don't know how much I can do, guys.

Yeah, no.

Amazingly frustrated right now. 
I was having a pretty good night. I was texting funny people, I was watching Family Guy, and I was playing on omegle. Totally fine night.
Sean went to bed after working so hard on something for school. I was really proud of him. It takes drive to stay up until 12am working on an assignment. I would have just gone to sleep. 
I had just been sitting here, and then it started.
I got a flood of unpleasant texts from someone I usually enjoy texting. 



Now, I can usually deal with drama very easily....
I ignore it. 
But tonight's drama began with a topic that questioned my honor, and my reputation. 
It infuriated me.
Not only did these texts say that I was untruthful, but said that I am making bad decisions and hurting people.


Now I can handle being yelled at. But texting me out of nowhere with twisted facts, and false accusations? No.
It's complete bullshit that I would be getting ridiculous texts like this at 1am. When I'm just hanging out. It pisses me off.


So you know what? I dealt with the problem. I called the person that was twisting the facts to begin with, and called them out. I told them that I was done with the drama, because my name shouldn't be vile gossip on someone's tongue. I told them not to talk to me. I then blocked and deleted them on Facebook, Skype, and deleted their' number. 


I'm done with the bullshit. Maturity obviously doesn't come with age, and I don't have time to babysit. 


I'm actually quite happy with my choices and life. I'll be even happier AFTER April 25th. My life is my own, and I don't need anyone telling me what I could have/should have done to "improve" it. 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




What I don't understand about the world now-a-days, is everyone's concern for other people's lives. Everyone seems so focused on "setting others straight". It's upsetting. If you're so worried about my life, you wont have time for yours.


Please everyone. If you're involved in something that drives you crazy, or if you're involved in "drama", just let it go. Is it really worth arguing about? Just ignore it. 
If it's on Facebook, block them.
If it's over text, tell them to shoo- and delete the number.
If it's in person, tell them to leave you alone, and stay away from them.


What it comes down to,
is that it's really easy to remove drama from your life. 
Stopping the drama starts with you.


"Drama just comes to me"...
Oh no no no no no no you just stop right there. 
Drama doesn't "come to you".
You accept it.


If you think about it, it's so easy to just ignore it. 
Unless this person is COMING TO YOUR HOUSE, 
and BREAKING DOWN YOUR DOOR,
You don't have to deal with it. 
Even then, call the police. That's when it gets to be creepy.


You have one life to live,
and you will never get a chance to change the past. Why would you waste your valuable life time fighting with someone? 
Unless you really want them in your life, (And you have to be dead set on that. ) it's usually not worth it. 




Guys, just try to make yourself happy. You can do more than you think. Don't wait for happiness to find you. Don't wait for that one person to text you. Don't sit there arguing with the person who wont leave you alone. 
Be proactive, and DO SOMETHING.
You're more powerful than you give yourself credit for. 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Have a good day everyone (: Good morning.

Quit the duck face.

As I was about to write my blog, a post went up on facebook that was too good not to share.


 My comment keeps getting likes. What can I say? I tell it like it is. The thing looked like a fluffy penis. 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Do I have your attention now?


Welcome back. I was beginning to miss you.
Where have you been?
Facebook?
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmhmm.




It's actually 1:37am right now. I'm waiting to feel tired.
It's not going that great.


Like I said in one of my previous blogs, it's easier to fall asleep when you're happy. Insomnia gets the best of you when you're not.


I suppose I should explain why I'm upset. Wouldn't want you left in the dark. 


I'm sick of feeling powerless in situations. Sick of feeling like I don't have any sway in anyone's opinions or emotions. I just want to feel like I'm helping.
Earlier on, I received a text that nearly broke my heart. I felt like I should have been there, physically, to help them. It pisses me off to the extreme that I'm just not helpful. 
Especially for the people who I should be helping the most. 


People message me on Facebook asking for help all the time. I'm able to give them advice that actually means something to them.
But when it comes to the people's emotions that I value most... I feel powerless to help.


I don't know. I guess what's bothering me the most, is that I can't help one specific person right now. Someone who I care about so deeply, that I'd do anything to make them feel better. 
But I feel like I nothing I do even brings a smile to their face. And out of everyone I know, they deserve a smile most right now. I just don't know how to help. Or if I even could.


(2:04am)


I'm also having a hard time making a blog. I have so much bottled up inside, but I can't even focus.
There's also not enough words in the English language to describe how I'm feeling.

Lost. Unhelpful. Sick.



Something along those lines. 


I just want to be in Loveland right now. I just want to move already. I hate this.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


So enough of my bitching. No one wants to read bitching.


I'm going to be going to my Uncle's house tomorrow for a week. I think I'm leaving later on in the afternoon, so I'll be sitting down just in time to blog. 
I hate the thought of sleeping in that house.


The house is fine. Don't get me wrong. Nice house.
Just... it's not where I belong. 
THIS house is not where I belong. But at least it's mine. I have free reign to walk around in my underwear.


I also wont be able to smoke. So you're going to get some angry blogs this week. 
Angry. Blogs.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


So this is where I get sappy and give you a link to something. 
It will be okay. I promise. Just relax,
take a deep breath. Sometimes you need a little cheesy.




I also want you to check out my friend Ashley's blog. She's amazing, and she's an amazing writer. She was writing about Valentine's day the other day, and my mouth was literally hanging open. 
She's also been blogging about healthy exercise recently, and God knows I need to pay more attention to that. 




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I'm sorry that this wasn't an amazing blog tonight, guys. I'm just not in an "amazing" mood. Tomorrow will be better. 


I hope you all have an amazing day. 
You deserve the best. 
<3

OH LOOK! That blog thing!

I adore the movie "The Babysitter".
No, 
I freaking LOVE the movie The Babysitter. 
It's my all time favorite thug movie.








Since no one actually PAYS for things on the internet anymore, I'm watching a movie online, called "The Babysitter". It's so damn funny. It's like... if Snoop dog and Eminem were both sperm donors for Jess from "New Girl", that would be the main character. 


(Jess from New Girl, if you don't watch it. ^ )






Yes, I know it's almost 1am.
I know I'm drinking lime soda and watching pirated movies.

I know.
Lizzi, you should go to sleep, you spend too much time on the internet, blah blah...
No really. I know.
You're starting to sound like my mom. Jeez. 




No... my mom doesn't care.






ANYWAY.
For those of you who also spend "too much" time online, I've decided to come up with a list of nifty little sites to waste your time on.
So here goes, in no particular order.


1.) Facebook (This goes without saying... )
2.) Twitter
3.) Memebase
4.) Omegle
5.) Top 50 Time Wasters
6.) Cleverbot
7.) Youtube
8.) zMovie (Free [Not necessary legal] Full length NEW movies. )
9.) Hulu
10.) Blogger


Oh Lizzi, you're so funny. You blog about wasting time on Blogger. 
Really, I do. 
If you guys don't have a blog yet, maybe you should get one. It's actually really fun, and it's an easy way to vent if you're just fed up. I spend a lot of time on here writing the blogs that you read. I've probably spent 30 minutes just on this part of the blog alone. 
I spend so much time on these sites. 
I almost wish I had more to add to that list. Maybe a "Top 20 time waster" list. 
But then again, I put a site that has 50 time wasters on it. So what now. 
Facebook and youtube are just sites that are hardwired into our brains as mega sites. 


When something funny happens, you take pictures of it for Facebook.
When someone says something funny, you quote it on facebook. 
Don't you lie to me, I know you do it. 






Speaking of facebook... All of today's posts were really sad. 
Or about a significant other. 




Hmmm.
Just saw a status that someone's friend just got in a car accident, and they're in coma. And that person wants everyone to text them.
Huh. 
That's really unfortunate and all... but your friend just went into a coma... and you're facebooking? I'm not sure I grasp that. 


I think 2 of the funniest statuses I've ever seen on my facebook were:



( Click on the photos to make them bigger. )

And:

"I'm being pulled over, and probably getting arrested".



It was so funny to open up my facebook and see that someone cared enough about Facebook to update their status as they were going to be put in jail. Nice. 
I don't want to live on this planet anymore.



And Twitter...
Don't even get me started. 
Unlike Facebook, there's no social boundaries on how much you can tweet.
At least on Facebook, it's considered rude to flood someone's news feed with your thought and be invasive. On Twitter, it's encouraged. 
You could update your Twitter 500+ times a day, and no one would think you're weird. 


Case and point:




He's funny and all... but this was just right up there. He floods my twitter DAILY with random things I couldn't care less about. Most of them stolen quotes from other people.
Thanks.


I actually got a really weird tweet from someone not too long ago. They tweeted me a picture of my house, and my location in it. 
I guess that the Twitter location services were keeping track a little TOO well. 
I turned that shit off.




I think the weirdest part was that he only had one tweet, and it was to me. And who's standing near me? It says that someone was standing close to where I was. 
He's blocked. 


The Internet used to be a great thing. People used it to communicate and find people like them/ ideas for the future.
And now people use it to stalk everyone online. 


You can't say you haven't done it either. 


We've all gotten on Facebook, and ended up going through the albums of people on there. 
We've looked at their information, and looked at someone's statuses and updates from months back. 
We're all creepy on the Internet. 
But the best part is, we all complain about creeps. And trolls. 


This video perfectly explains my point. 




She is absolutely hilarious. 
She makes me feel better, knowing that someone's out there spitting out the truth. More power to her. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



The point of this blog isn't to make you feel bad for spending all of your time online. It's to celebrate it.
Look at you.
Our future is technology. 
You're just getting an extreme jump start on the future. 
You think ahead.
Clever you.


It's also to give you some ideas of other sites to help you "plan for the future".


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I also recommend google chrome, if you don't have it. (GOD forbid that you still use Explorer. )
It's got a nice app store that's completely free as well. It's got a mountain of things that are free to add on your computer, without a download. 
(Angry birds, Instagram, Art programs, Music... etc. )


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




So feel better about spending all of your time online. 
Because sun? Who needs sun. 
We just need our computer glow. 
It's too bright out there anyway. 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




I hope you guys enjoyed my blog today. I got a bit sarcastic in there. But don't take me seriously all the time. I'm a computer nerd too. 
Have a good day everyone. Or if you haven't slept yet, go to bed. I'll still be here when you wake up.
(:

Secret handshake.

You know how they say, "A blank piece of paper can be intimidating", because you don't know where to start when you write? You can feel overwhelmed because you're just sitting there staring at white. It's blank. It's waiting for you to begin something... and you lost everything you had to say because it's so... empty.
That applies to blogs too.
My editing page looks like this:




So when I start writing... this is all I see.
White.

And you know... I have so much to say up until I get to this page. From the moment I type in "blogger.com", I'm surrounded by white, and I forget everything.
I actually have to force myself to remember what I wanted to talk about.

So here we go with today's blog. 
You see what I did there? My page is no longer blank. 




Easier working space.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



As you all know
( Because of your facebook news feed blowing up with pink pictures, presents, and multiple status updates on the pros and cons of Valentines day... )

IT WAS VALENTINE'S DAY.


That's where I'm going to begin talking, because that was what I woke up to.
Pink shit.
My mom woke me up to give me a chocolate bear that was about the size of my palm. Valentine's day has always been a day that my family gives little gifts.
Like a super mini pink Christmas. 
I don't think anyone actually does it because they WANT to, though. I think it's more of a "This is what we do. So I'm going to do it" thing.
I played on the computer for a couple hours, before I decided to go on a walk to smoke and find the glove I lost while walking last night. 


I wandered up a hill, and found a little ditch. I guess it's private property ( Someone had to tell me later on. )
But it was so peaceful. Sitting on this hill, with no one knowing where I was. It was just a time to get away. 
Eventually, my mom texted me asking me where I was, so I walked back home. 


I spent the next few hours rolling through facebook, and I watched an episode of House on Hulu.
(I'm so active.)


This is where everything gets a little more interesting. 


I went with my family to Fazoli's. I started people watching, and realized that there was every type of couple there.
I saw a young couple,
an old couple,
A couple with children,
A double date,
and a guy by himself.
It was almost cute to watch the young couple giggle and take pictures together. Ahhh innocence.


I went to cold stone creamery afterwards, to get some cake batter ice cream.


When I was walking across the parking lot to the doors, I saw a little white car COVERED in Bob Marley apparel. 
Bumper-stickers, 
Bobble head...
It even had a Jamaican flag flying from the antenna.
It was definitely something interesting. 
I can get down with some "I shot the sheriff", but not when it's coming out of your exhaust pipe.


Then I came home and skyped with Sean. He got me a little devil/angel bear. It was so cute. 
I felt bad, because I thought I could buy his V-day present later, and give it to him on the 27th, but he had already gotten me something to show on skype. He said it wouldn't count as a Valentine's gift if I got it on another day. I know he was joking around, but I took it seriously. 


He has to wake up early, so we said goodnight around 10pm.


As soon as we hung up, I rushed to the store. 
Like a bat out of hell, 
I ran to get my Valentine's day gift for him.


As soon as I got home,
I sent him a picture. 
I felt accomplished. Like I had succeeded in this game of "Beat the Clock".


Maybe I'm too competitive.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


That's basically my entire day. I mean... there were a few things I didn't explain... but I didn't think you'd want to know how many bristles are on my toothbrush.
( I tried to count. Couldn't find a tweezer. Bitches are hard to hold on to. )


This blog isn't going to be amazingly interesting.
Probably because I started late... it's 1:14am. 


I don't know... I'm just finding it easier to sleep tonight. I'm already tired. I guess that's what happens when I feel better. 
And I do feel better. 
Like I said in my blog last night... I only needed a specific text. And I got it. 


I hope you all had a good day, 
and I hope today's even better. 
You're awesome. Thank you for reading. 
It will be more interesting today. 
LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN.
