what i love and what is still a part of me
October 24, 2008
i love to laugh, no doubt about that. And I laugh at the little things, the stupid things, sometimes at the most innappropriate times, at people, at situations, at myself. I like to watch people like Wanda Sykes and Will Smith because every time I watch them, I end up laughing my face off. It’s something I actually like about this world, that you can still laugh.
I used think that I was kind of stupid for laughing at the little things, but now I’m glad I do. People are so stressed, so worried, so mean nowadays that it’s good that you can laugh at the little things or things that YOU may not find amusing, but other people find it HILARIOUS. That’s what I’m starting to learn, everyone is different. Everyone has their own opinion, and I don’t wanna talk about the downright wrong versus right because that’s a gray, debatable, argumentative area..but if someone wants to wear a hoodie outside because THEY find it chilly, let them, they don’t need your narrative of how YOU don’t think it’s cold enough outside. If someone likes one type of music, GREAT, you don’t have to like it. And if someone finds something else funny, let them laugh, because you never know how long it took them to get there.
I’m learning about how different people are, and how I still care about what people think of me. And yeah, I’m pretty sure I’ll think about that for awhile, but I was getting ready for class today and I had a 10 minute debate with myself whether or not I should wear boots to class because it wasn’t super cold at the moment, but getting out of class at 8:45 I knew it would be much colder at night.
But I decided to wear them.
Because as I was walking around I kept telling myself “Your a big girl now Christina, you wanna wear your boots? Wear them, only you know how cold your feet will be”. And just realizing this now I must sound odd to even care about that haha, but I did, but I got over it.
Life is fun with little lessons like that. But it is getting colder, so hopefully I’ll be ready for the Tennessee fall…
