Quote by Christian Larson

I kinda liked this quote and it might be of some use to other people.
"PROMISE YOURSELF ... to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as your are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have not time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy for permit the presence of trouble."
- Christian Larson
I know it sounds somewhat cheesy, but it does have some good points. Hehe, in other words "Have a good day," ^_^ .

In the life of me! The Orange!

Well, today, I managed to use the mousse my mother bought me, and to bring out my natural curls. People wanted to know if I had gotten a perm. I said "Heavens, no! These are my natural curls!" In not so many words. They said that it was cute though. We weren't late today, but just on time. We even managed to acquire a cushioned pew. I was very pleased. When we got home, I finally remembered to email my Easter talk to Sister Pheysey. She's been begging me for months. I really am not sure of why my talk impressed so many people so much. They're still complimenting me about it. Oh well, Mine is not to wonder why, mine is but to do and die. After a few events that I admit I may have overreacted in, I am now forced to think of and participate in an activity with Almond. I think I may be able to avoid it, but if not, oh well, it can't be too bad. I practiced for nearly an hour. A lot of it was improv, but hey. There are some times when you CAN serve two masters. My mother and myself. Well, in the background, I can hear my mother hinting about how much she dislikes my situation, and how she wishes I was like any other child. *sigh* Life is just a package stuffed with foam peanuts. You have to sift through the annoying to find the enjoyable, and sometimes you just have to make do with the bubblewrap at the bottom. I read some from Fellowship of the Ring. I wish I could read faster. I really need to buckle down and just read the thing. Oh, I got emails today. Yesterday I just decided to tell Van Tan the truth that I don't like him, and never have, but that I really don't want to lose such a good friend. He wrote back saying that he actually hadn't been avoiding me, just that he'd been busy. I just decided to believe him. He also assured me that we were still friends, which made me glad. Anyway, 2 of the other emails were from The Radish, telling me about his family reunion in CA, as well as congratulating me about telling Van Tan the truth. The last email was from The Watermelon; it was about my confession as well. She also wanted to know exactly what the truth was. I told her that the truth was that I never liked him, and that I'm a dork. Well, that pretty much covers my day.

Happy Pioneer Day!!

Happy Pioneer Day! Today is Saturday, July 24, 2004! Anyway, I'm so bored, I just got through saving 170+ pictures, just to find out that at least 1/2 of them were the same pictures!! I'm never going to do a montage for Girl's Camp ever again. What a waste of my precious time when I could be lazying around doing nothing whatsoever! I'm waiting for 4:00 to come around so that we can start our Ward Pioneer Fun day. Whatever that is. Ergh. So what's new in the life of YOU?! Yes you! that's who I'm talkin about!!!

So it Begins...

Hiya! I think that it'd be safe now to try to decide what kind of stuff we'll talk about, and exactly what we'll be doin. Should we decide just how many people contributing to the posts we'll allow? Because anyone, whether they're a team member or not, can comment to the posts, but I think it might be a good idea to limit the # of people able to post. Just a vague limit though, not like "only 15" or something. Also, I've noticed that no one has posted as of yet, only commented. So, if this is a matter of not knowing how, or something, I can answer most questions you have, and those can either be written to me, or put here as a comment, or whatever you wanna do. Also, the subjects of discussion...we need to decide whether we'll just be talking about our days, or if we'll have open discussion about current events, opinions on music, movies, whatever. I think it'd also be fun, later on, to have like an election thing to decide who should be "president" or something, so we can have some organization...blah blah blah. Anywho...yeah. Comment, please :D

Somewhat a Fruit Basket

This blog is to be set up to show the opinions and views of all the fruits/vegetables/things etc. So that the views of the orange are not the only ones put out to the public.
