Hey all you boys and girls!!! Here I am... A little over a month since I last posted. I know I a failure and I keep saying I going get better, so I am not making any more promises!
I just started school... Well COLLEGE! Scary word, I know. It's not too bad but I am going to be pretty busy. Also, in case you were not aware, I got a new iPod! His name is Jack, also called Jack Jack depending on the day and my mood. He is pretty much the bomb. com!!! In fact, I am using him to write this very blog! He is pretty nifty, but of you see some random typo, just know that he is still young and not perfect. Anywho, I want to get to the point here because despite his awesomeness, typing on Jack Jack is not that fun.
The mind is an amazing thing and in my opinion, the most amazing part of our minds is our imagination. It's sad that so many young people don't have vivid imaginations because they think it is childish to have a big imagination. It's not that they don't have one because everyone has an imagination, it's just that they don't feed it as much as they should. It is a beautiful thing to have a big imagination and it helps when you get older, too. You know those hilarious e-trade commercials with the little talking babies that everyone loves? Well how do you think people come up with things like that? BINGO, it's all in their imagination before they put the idea on paper and then on film! I feel that God has blessed me with an absolutely lively and crazy big imagination! As a child, my sisters always told me that my imagination was much bigger than theirs. I would do the whole "let's plan out my Polly Pocket's whole life and act it out" and I would get frustrated when my friends didnt see my so-called "vision." I guess it's a good thing I want to be an actress! The only bad thing is that sometimes my imagination is sometime a little too vivid and alive to the point that I spend more time just sitting around daydreaming instead of doing something important. Or my dreams are a little too real! I think everyone has those dreams where it feels SOO real you can almost feel the person in your dream or whatever. In the case that I am thinking about that actually inspired me to write about this was this really creepy dream I had last night! It was as if it was actually happening because I was laying in bed, asleep as I really was and all of a sudden this hand starts coming toward me and I was pushing it away from me I stop it from choking me! It was really weird because it was literally just a hand... Well more like an arm from the elbow down, but really creepy and really real!!!!! I woke up and had to calm down, after I turned my lamp on. The scary thing was that I could feel the struggle and almost feel that hand getting so close to my throat!!! I am sure you have dreams like that and that is my point. Our imaginations can be such a wonderful thing but it can be a pretty scary thing, too. Does that mean you shouldn't feed it? NO, just don't feed it the wrong things, like scary movies or inappropriate things! Well at least in my case, I can't feed mine scary movies... Embrace your imagination and don't be afraid to use it!!
Don't you like how I refered your imagination to some kind of animal or child that has to be fed? Well it just kinda happened so I went with it. I must be getting to sleep now, seeing I have an 8 o'clock class tomorrow and it's past midnight! Goodnight and let your imagination run WILD and don't tie it down!!!!!
