Take two

Posted by Barbie on June 15, 2009, 10:05 p.m.

Good morning fellow bloggers!

Today I discovered the reason I am taking math’s. The reason is not so that I can get a good job and make lots of money. It is not so that I can impress fellow suitors with my superior math’s abilities either. The reason, 64digiters, that I am taking math’s is to spend an hour a day spelling words on my fancy calculator. The calculator in question cost my parents $200 and instead of using it in the way it was intended to be used, I have decided to make it my mission in life to learn to spell various words on this peace of equipment. At the moment I can successfully spell various naughty words as well as write secret messages to the people sitting next to me. I consider this achievement equal to that of Sir Edmond Hillary and the like. Needless to say I got 34% on my math’s paper. Well done me!

As mentioned above, I have just finished writing exams. Somehow I managed to pass all my exams (except math’s) without the help of textbooks, extra lessons or going to the first term of classes. This is not like me in the slightest but I guess people change in life.

This morning I watched the New Moon trailer for Twilight (I’m such a conformist) and I was wondering how many guys have read Twilight? Or watched the movie? If you are in fact a guy and watched the movie or read the books, did you enjoy it? I was looking at one of my Facebook friends’ profile and it said that his favourite book was Twilight. WTF???!!!

On the topic of movies, I recently watched “The Great Dictatorâ€? by Charlie Chaplin. Wow! What a film! I laughed myself into hysterics! The part where he chokes in the middle of his speech was so amusing I started crying! Definitely a must see.

Life in general has been pretty down lately. My parents have taken to forcing me to invite friends over. Embarrassing! I think I need to get a new boyfriend to be honest. Someone to vent my anger and sexual frustrations out on *laughs like a disturbed asylum escapee*. But seriously, I really need to.

As good old Mahatma Gandhi once said “To forgive is not to forget. The merit lies in loving in spite of the vivid knowledge that the one that must be loved is not a friend.â€? These words have recently helped me understand events in my life. For a long time I have been hurting due to two bad relationships that have been developing over the past two years. The first ended months ago. Nasty words were exchanged and hearts were broken. I hate this person but somehow I still feel a deep love for him. The seconded ended last week. This relationship is now on a “friendshipâ€? basis. My heart has been broken again. I have every right to hate these people but something inside of me can’t bring myself to do it. I learnt something important today: once I give my love to someone I can’t take it back. It’s theirs forever even if “…the one that must be loved is not a friend.â€? So, Id like to declare that I’m sorry and I still love you. Who knows maybe these people will read this blog and decide to contact me. One can hope.

Frank Sinatra was once asked “How does the smoker prevail in a world of nonsmokers?â€? to which he promptly replied “Tell ‘em, you die your way, I’ll die mine.â€? I, in question, am not a smoker but you get my drift.

People should be well versed in the words of the icons of the past, their words and actions changed generations.

Heh, I can spell my name and surname out on a scientific calculator. It's pretty cool.

I know a guy who reads Twilight. He also uses hand and face cream, enjoys clothes shopping, and wears skinny jeans. I'm a bit worried about that guy…

I agree kaz. But lets face it: few 17 year olds are like that. Barbie obviously smarter than most 17 year girls.

@Barbie: you are raising 64d's average IQ

Or just wishes not to be the stereotypical bitch that most girls are growing up to be.

agreed. But I still say there more to Barbie than meets eye here.

Hey Barbie, like the attention? Seriously, I hope we're not embarrassing you. That not our intent, at least not mine.

Hi everyone :)

I am flattered by the response I have gotten from my blog.

I quote these famous people because I find that they are more meaningful than the hero’s of todays time. This is, of course, a gross and disgusting generalisation but its hard to find significance in "under my umbrella ella ella" or "let me see if you can run it, run it". That’s just my opinion. I don’t quote to sound smart, cool or knowledgeable I rather do it to illustrate things and get people to think.

I like you guys:) You are my favourite users:)

And I appreciate your lack of conformity that everyone seems to think is "in" nowadays.
