Hunger Games!

Ah, I saw The Hunger Games today and it was amazing! Simply incredible. Sure, it definitely helps if you read the books, at least the first one because you will have a better understanding of the characters and events going on.

Yes, there were several important parts that were missing and I was shaking my fist at the screen, metaphorically but it did fulfil most of my expectations, surpassing some of them as well. I've got to admit that I loved Rue. She was the cutest person but there should have been more interaction between her and Katniss.

Ah Katniss. Jennifer Lawrence just blew me away. I loved her. She might not look exactly as I imagined but her acting skills made Katniss real to me. The fear and love, it was immense.

I was very disappointed in Peeta though. He didn't look like Peeta nor did he act like him, well, become him. I didn't feel the same Peeta as I did with the book. Ah, this is probably the downside to the movie but I am all for Katniss and Peeta. Aw.

Expressing your emotions

Ok, I am definitely the worst person to be writing a blog about this because I find it hard to interact with everybody, even myself. I swear, real words never come out of my mouth and expressing a full sentence is the most difficult thing. However, this is a blog about being able to convey your emotions to someone, more love as opposed to hate.

If you are afraid to do it, you don't feel that emotion. You want to say it, but you are scared of rejection? I honestly believe this is a terrible excuse. If you like or love someone, you will know and you will tell them regardless of any excuses, especially, if this excuse is rejection or fear. It's invalid. (Any other reasons can be too!)

It doesn't even matter if you're shy, socially awkward, a little on the "I never do this" side, you can do it if you feel it. You don't have to plan it out beforehand, it should be natural. Love is the most natural thing, it's probably the purest form of hope.

Well, sorry for this, it's self-motivating and I was inspired by someone not having the courage to do this. Even I, extremely shy and awkward, am able to say that I like someone. Ok... maybe it was out of anger... after I didn't like them. Not the best example but you can do it, believe me!

Social interaction

The downside of social interaction is the people you have to interact with.
This must be the best line ever.
It's definitely random. I overheard someone say "she's always there", it pretty much means I'm a stalker, right? Ah, it did make me sad, seriously sad. I literally had no words and all respect that I had for that person had faded away in that moment. I couldn't believe it, neither did I believe that people were capable of switching, well I didn't know their entire opinion of me but I'm sure I'm not a creep. Well, not too creepy, being socially awkward is not creepy, just speak to me! Dearest!

Besides from this, I am ashamed of some of my friends. For quite some time, my friendship group has split apart, although I didn't know the reason, I was sure everything was still fine. Sure, I wasn't considered my whole ethnicity but I can take that, it's the fact that this started because some of my friends don't like one of my friends. Yes, this is entirely possible, it happens all the time but the fact that they're so nice, it kills me. Subtle mean comments were just jokes to me, never did I know they were serious... It's terrible to know this and although it's not my situation to involve myself, I want to ask. It's the fact that this person doesn't even know the reason, she thinks everything is fine and this one fact makes it harder to look at them the same way. Please, tell them, don't just pretend to like them.

My final sad note would be breaking it to you that I cannot swallow a tablet, a sweet, a tic tac. I am hopeless. How can I take the malaria tablets? Dearest, I started crying. Enough of me, I shall go now.

STOP KONY

Joseph Kony is one of the world’s worst war criminals and I support the international effort to arrest him, disarm the lRa and bring the child soldiers home.

Kony 2012 seems to be a big hit across the globe, especially as it as gone viral which is fantastic. Seeing this makes me feel like humanity still has good beliefs and there is a possibility of world peace. If you don't know what the campaign Stop Kony is already, you should definitely check out this video:

It's beautiful yet heart wrenching so I advice you all watch this! It become personal considering I have family in Uganda so this really hit the spot. Spreading the word is definitely a neccessity but it's always good to start doing things to make sure that this will be able to become a reality.

Peace and love!

Should I stay or should I go?

So I was accepted into a college which I've always wanted to go, yet, I have this feelings that doesn't want to go. I don't know what I should do, it's beyond expectations and would be extremely benefical but I don't want to leave my friends. I love them. Yes, if you truly love them, you should make the effort to be with them but I don't know if I could still maintain the same relationship with them. The college is further than the school I currently go to so I will have to be productive and prepared to hike there every morning, with a chance of rejection and no guarantee that I will be happy.

Here's another thing: it's an all girls college and I haven't been the most confident person around girls, I just don't feel myself so it's going to be harder to socialise. Ah, what's stopping me? I can definitely do it because I believe in myself and I want a fresh start!

See the sudden chance in attitude? I am too indecisive. Dear oh dear, will I stay or will I go? Aha, make myself laugh with a song but this is a serious issue I should consider! Wish me luck, lovelies!

Toodles!

Just found a love for my birthday!

N'aw, it's my birthday today. I have the cutest friends and it shocks me that I have never realised until now. Sure, I started the day with the usual waking up early to exercise for 30 minutes at school until the lessons begin. N'aw, I'm just too happy, I've been smiling at everyone I see. I was literally bombarded with gifts - I nearly fell off the bus, dear oh dear.

Yet, it's not about the gifts. I was told several times that my friends must love me because of them but I truly love them for putting up with my stupidness and slowness. It's been several years and I will never forget them - not one of them. ♥

You see, my emotions are pretty much happy. This is a time when I am truly happy with no fear or regret but happiness. It's not just my friends, it's even the random people that will smile at you or comment "Happy Birthday" as well that make me zealous. You begin to see the light, not in a bad way but I feel free.

N'aw, that's enough from me. Aw, I feel so lovey now, but embrace your friends and family and random strangers. Be kind and like or at least try to feel enthusiastic about your birthday. You're never going to remain young forever so live now! A bit too corny but it's true!

N'aw, toodles from me dearies!
