Lame.

I know! I'm terrible and lame! I haven't posted since Thanksgiving Break! I am eternally sorry. :( I hope you accept this picture of a cat in a sock as a token of my apologeticness.
It was brought to my attention lately by a special someone that I haven't done anything with this blog since I have been so busy. Well here's a post!

I should be doing homework but whatevskees I'm going to do this post. I owe it to y'all. :)

So I said I had been busy right? Well the week after I last posted I went down to the coast to do some early caroling with my show choir! December was full of performances and exams. I had a bit of a busy Christmas break with the family out of town, then I was ill over New Year's. I of course was not kissed at midnight, and don't worry it wasn't just because I was sick ;) haha. January has been so full of rehearsals for the school musical that I don't have time for much else. I enjoy it though and that's what matters. :) I swapped pants with my male friend when we were down at Galveston and then a couple weeks later his girlfriend accused me of sleeping with him! Nice of her, right? These are both stories for another day though.

Well like I said, I have homework to do and y'all have a tumblr to follow :) Have a great week my Lovelies!<3

Thanksgiving

I AM SO THANKFUL FOR EACH AND EVERY PERSON THAT READS MY BLOG.

My tumblr

My Mom does Thanksgiving, and my Aunt does Christmas, so Thanksgiving break is filled with lots of cleaning and cooking instead of too much relaxation... I was hoping to go to the Daughtry/3Doors Down Concert, but alas Dad doesn't want to leave the relatives and my Mom at home while we go to a concert, so never mind about that. :/ Did I mention I have homework to do too? Well I do sadly. At least I actually have time to do it haha. I'm hoping to read some also. I want to take out a few books over break. I started playing DDO again! (Dungeons and Dragons Online for those of you non-PC gamers)

This weekend we put up all the outside Christmas decorations! It looks like a winter wonderland! Except we won't turn the stuff on until after Thanksgiving, so it's just kinda there... I'm eligible for my license next month! super excited! In 5 weeks it will be an entire year of being single. That sounds odd to say... Sounds like: "Been Forever Alone for 47 weeks now!" WOOT. LOL :) I definitely don't mind.

 I've been told I'm "the coolest lame person" people know lol. I like that. It describes me well. 

Well have a swell holiday week My Lovelies! <3

Worthless.

Do you ever feel so worthless, that even though you're having a great time with those who love you, that creeping feeling comes back to lurk in the depths of yourself? Terrible. Isn't it? This past week especially I have been being told time and time again I am not good enough. I'm sitting here, blogging, eating Ramen, and wondering why. Why is it, that people of pessimism, and (not to sound conceited in any respect) people of lower skill than I, get chosen over me time and again, when not only do I work my tail off, I'm pleasant and friendly and optimistic to everyone I come in contact with? It's quite frustrating. Even more so when I should "get over it". As I've discussed, it makes me feel somewhat worthless, yet I can't say anything because I'm supposed to be the one person who never complains and is ready to put a smile on anyone's face, even when no one will do the same for me.

On a lighter note, I've been listening to music a lot. I mean A LOT.  I'm constantly listening to Indie and Alternative music. It's great. Found a guy who is really into some bands I am really into which is cool. What's even cooler is that I was kind of into him before the music thing.
Sorry for the downer y'all, but if any of you can relate shoot me a message on my tumblr, that I will link at the end, or my e-mail: simply.laurel.stone@gmail.com .

Have a Fantastic week my Lovies. :)

Cold.

My Tumblr

I absolutely love the colder or chillier weather patterns! :) It's the best time of the year. Everything is changing and the air lightens and it's simply magical. My winter clothes and cozy clothes are ready for the changes! Winter food is always great too. And spirits are higher too. Just too awesome. Except Flu Shots and sicknesses, that isn't too great... Speaking of diseases, does anyone watch The Walking Dead? Because I do and I Lahve ett!!! I was really excited once we got AMC back, and I had mini marathon with myself to watch all three episodes of Season 3. I have surpassed 350 views which blows my mind! Y'all are fabulous. My blogs are kind of my pride and joy, so I hope some of you if not all enjoy my blog :)

Keepin' this post short and sweet.

Indie.

For the longest time I have been in love with everything in the Indie genre. Indie films, Indie music, Indie thoughts. Everything. It really engulfs me. I swear that if I grew up somewhere other than the deep south, like New York or something, I would be the ultimate Hipster. Not the stereotypical Hipster that's so mainstream nowadays that everyone despises, but the true basis of what a true Hipster is. The simplicity and liberal way of being is beautiful to me and I try to embrace it while holding onto my Southern Proud roots. Sometimes I almost wish I was born in a different state, like New York, so I could be my edgy alter-ego. It's hard to embrace both sides of myself. I almost feel as though I'm one person, conditioned to be another. Quite odd, frankly. I read Perks of Being a Wallflower and watched Like Crazy this past weekend and will be going to see Perks in theatres ASAP. I'm very excited haha. All that Indie really pumped me up. It was fabulous. This blog is really a place where I can be myself, and I don't have to please anyone, or be "perfect". It allows me to say what I want, and truly let it all out, and I thank y'all for the views and allowing me that.

Ugh.

I'm going to go on a small rant of why there are some days when I can't wait for University.

Everyday I go through High School and listen to whiny teenagers. I listen to them complain about First World Problems and how they can't have a social life due to their homework mound, when I know for a fact I have more homework than they do and I'm not complaining. I've always been at a higher maturity level and it's really wearing on me lately, especially since my pet peeve is whining. It drives me crazy because these people don't even try and they complain about EVERYTHING. It makes me wonder why I don't just become a hermit and ignore everyone. On the bright side I know I don't have too much time before I go off to University and have nothing to do with my annoying acquaintances I am forced to deal with day in and day out. It really eats away at me that I'm even classed with these people because I feel like I'm so different. I know that I'm not better than anyone and that's not what I'm trying to say, I just feel so out of place. So, so out of place. I've just about given up even attempting to find a guy in high school and I've always known it was rather pointless to try. The guys I like, like other girls, and the guys who like me, are few and far between plus they're generally not what I want for lack of a better phrase. Sometimes I just really wish I could have that new experience to start fresh and have more experiences and life and just more.

Basically, long story short, I'm full of angst. Oh yeah, the picture is unrelated, I just thought it was neat.

Thanks for reading my rant, have a fantastic week My Lovelies! :)
