As some of you may not know, I took a SUPER spontaneous trip to Oxford, MS this weekend A-to surprise my boyfrien and B-to see all my friends one last time in one spot for graduation. People ask why on earth would I make that 9 hour trip for a weekend and not only a weekend, because I had to go to work 8-5 Friday, so I was really only there Saturday and Sunday morning. Answer is, this is my life and I am living it how I want to live it. Yeah, the drive was 9 hours but spending even 10 minutes with Bartow is worth every mile of that trip. I don't want to live my life restricted to being scared or worried about gas money or waiting for a long weekend or holiday to do something fun. Have yall ever thought about that?
What is something you have always wanted to do? What is something you have been putting off for that one long weekend?
I'm just saying, let's not be those people who sit around and wait. Let's not be those people who live for the weekends. Don't be afraid to stay young. Since when is being young a bad thing? Young doesn't have to mean 'immature'. When we were young we climbed trees, snuck into people's backyards/swimming pools, ate candy, ran around sweating and singing and meeting new friends daily. Don't grow up into an old fart. Happiness is controlled by YOU, not him, not her, not them, not mom, not your boss.....YOU.
Love yall!
I stumbled upon this quote and thought it was perfect for everyone I know:
Look at you. You’re young….4:12pm May 19th, 2010
“Look at you. You’re young. And you’re scared. Why are you so scared? Stop being paralyzed. Stop swallowing your words. Stop caring what other people think. Wear what you want. Say what you want. Listen to the music you want to listen to. Play it loud as fuck and dance to it. Go out for a drive at midnight and forget that you have school the next day. Stop waiting for Friday. Live now. Do it now. Take risks. Tell secrets. This life is yours. When are you going to realize that you can do whatever you want?”
