It's the news of the day...
So, I have a headache again. It just happened when my aunt told me that she wanted a few modifications to the web site a friend of mine made for her. The funny thing is, this comes two months after we designed, coded, and implemented the darn thing. Don't get me wrong. It's for a good cause. The only problem that I have is that we were being asked to have it retooled again. It just gave me a headache just thinking about it. Why? Well, because I have a Macbook Pro that I have to get going for the head honcho of our company. I have a bunch of servers that I really, really want to put up as soon as possible. I have a bunch of upgrades that I would like to install into the computer units of many of our people. In other words, I think I have a full plate right about now.
I don't know what it is about stuff that just goes on in my head. Sometimes, I wonder if even I understand it. I was thinking about lovelife. My best friend from elementary keeps on telling me that it just happens. You don't have to do anything for it, you don't have to do anything about it. It just happens. When it does, you'll know it. I was wondering about that. I mean, how do I know when it does happen? It does, right? How do I recognize it? What if I have become so numb that I don't know if anyone is sending out signals and showing interest? Ah, yes. Signs. I sure hope my friend is right. I've been so engaged with the goings-on in my life that I haven't been paying much attention to stuff past me.
The Cavaliers are going to the finals. The Cleveland Cavaliers clinch the Eastern Finals Championship to face the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals. In a spectacular display of teamwork and effort, they ease out of Cleveland as champions.
So, that's it for my day. I played World of Warcraft, I watched TV, but for some reason, my head still hurts. Maybe I'm just tired or maybe I just need some sleep. I think that's what I need to do. I just need some sleep. I haven't had any sleep this entire week so I will try to get some sleep...finally. I really am tired. I also feel a bit depressed because I feel a bit frustrated that people who aren't contributing to the communal well-being of our living space try to engage me and I don't know if it is my place to tell them off. In fact, I am no longer certain if it is my place to tell anyone off. It was made clear to me, growing up, that I do not tell any member of my family off. Once I leave the confines of that area, though, it's a different story altogether. And that ends my day. There weren't any good shows so I got stuck watching Ultimate Fighter 5 and Pokemon. I went out to buy comic books and I bought Forward the Foundation.
I did realize something over the week, though. I spoke to my younger sister in the Philippines and, as we were talking, I realized that someone did think of me. Even if it was in a tiny fraction of a moment, someone thought of me. All of a sudden, I wasn't so small anymore.
Every night, I pray to God for humility and hope. I was reading some Yahoo! reviews on the movie "Knocked Up" and they were talking a lot about the deterioration of society because a movie such as this was even allowed to be made. I disagree. You'll have to excuse me if I don't divulge too many details but "Knocked Up", as vulgar as the title might be to some ears of high society, is actually just a romantic comedy. As far as I can tell without having watched the movie myself, it's just a retelling of some movies like "Sleepless in Seattle" or maybe "Kate and Leopold". In other words, it's just another love story only told differently. I mean, if you think about it, all we're looking for really is love in a peaceful world. So, these two found each other in the most unconventional way. Does that really merit the entire "Everyone who saw this movie will go to hell" attitude? Love, in whatever form it may take, is love, right?
Of course, having schemes and machinations on a fourteen year old is something all too different. I mean, correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it the responsibility of the older generation to nurture and protect those that follow them? At least, that's how I see it. Just because a deer stares into the world wide-eyed doesn't mean that they don't get blinded by headlights.
