Humans & Stuff

So today I worked roughly 8 hours, and during at least 7 of those hours we were shopping. Yep. I got paid ten dollars an hour to follow my boss around with a shopping cart, give her my opinion, (which always ends up being real similar to hers haha) and take all of her hyper yelling-ness. Probably a bit more stressful than you think. So anyways during days like today I like to reflect on human nature. Habits that we ALL have. I started wondering how life would be for humans if we didn't have a language. I was thinking about how English, and every other language for that matter, is man made. It's not something that just naturally happens. We  label these objects and emotions, put them into words. What if these words are holding us back? What if there were no words and we could only express ourselves through what we did? When I think my mind doesn't speak, or hear words, it see's pictures. & the pictures my brain subconsciously chooses to relate with times and places completely match. When I try to put words out and explain how I feel I seriously feel trapped sometimes. It makes me wish that we were all cave men. Juuuust think about it. If I was to see someone walk up, and they were dressed weirdly or for some reason stood out, would I so instantly judge them? And if I were to still judge them (because that's just what humans do whether you admit it or not) would the judgments be so negative and come from a pre-made list of common words like: dirty, poor, lazy, mess up. Or would I look out to see why these people are different. We have these judgments and these words imprinted in our minds so that it becomes a habit to relate or connect certain things to certain labels. We try to put this man made language on every natural being of life. Yeah it's productive with science and building and stuff. But I honestly would love to live in a world with no language. Actions speak louder than words, I wish actions could replace words completely. Just how I'm feeling tonight lol...

Oh Life

Everyone is telling me that I have to post often. Telling me not to be a 'LoRen' So even if this is boring, I hope you're all ( my 3 followers) entertained. Recently I cut Nicky & Dad's hair, and I'm quite pleased with the results, though I don't have any pictures to yet show you. SORRY LAREE! haha I'll try to get on that soon. Or maybe just take before and after pictures next time. Beauty is a definite possible future for me. Today I spent a good portion of my day at the mall collecting application. Boy does it take time filling those suckers out.. but I'm officially on a hunt. If you hear or know anything you should definitely let me know. You'd probably become my favorite (: Also recently I found a gym like two blocks from my moms house that has a monthly fee of around 20 dollars. Affordable or whaaaa?! All locals should join with me. Something else I'm pretty interested in is my NFTE class at school. Not exactly sure what that stands for but it's an entrepreneur class and it's awesome. I love going to my school and learning. I love waking up early and getting ready for the day, and getting things done. I love that my car is registered in MY name. I love cleaning the house a little everyday and having a clean house. I love trying/learning to cook haha. I love working towards definite things in my life. This is a pretty random post but My mind is on a pretty random mode. I currently have a face mask on and am about to go do crunches and then read a little bit. Sooo this post should have me off the hook for a week or two.Goodbye fellow bloggers.. Until something more interesting!

My First Blog Post

I don't even have any blog friends yet so I'm kinda writing this to myself for now, haha. Well I've basically wanted a blog for a while now. I mean it probably wont be as cool as Michele's with all the pictures and what not, but I'm sure she will be very happy when she finds this. The only way to grow is to do. So I am doing. Currently I have a job cleaning and driving and doing whatever makes Mary happy. It's what I've been doing since I was twelve years old. Now that I have a car though, my expenses seem to have quadrupled and my income only slightly raised. I'm contemplating getting a random second part time job. Maybe some type of fast food, or retail store. Since I was a little kid I dreamed of moving out and having my own place. And well that day is just getting closer and closer and there are necessary steps to take in order for this to scale out. I can be lazy, but I'm finding a lot of interest in filling and using my time to it's fullest capacity. I mean, I AM a big kid now :). I don't always mean the things that I say & I don't always get to say the things that I mean. One of my biggest mysteries is myself. There is so much I need to learn and grow and I'm hoping this blog will be an interesting step in the right direction. Well that's all I got for now. Hope you people enjoy, when I learn how to get followers, haha. bye.
