Stand Up For Who You Are!
If someone tries to bring you down, hold your head higher & smile
People get picked on & bullied for many different things. It could be something as simple as the clothes you wear or your style of hair, to the colour of your skin or the person you choose to love, whether it be a man or a woman.
I'm one of those people. However, I just think I have a flashing neon sign above my head saying "Pick On Me!" as I've no idea why people choose to bully me. I'm just trying to be myself! And that's just it! No matter what you do, how many times you colour your hair, or change your clothing style, some people will just walk right over you.
So, what do we do?
We have to learn to stand up for ourselves, because it's our right to have the freedom to live as we are. We shouldn't have to change ourselves in any sort of way, except to gain a bit of confidence & build on our self esteem.
My blog is about how I try to be me, trying to be the best I can be!
I promise you this is not a super depressing blog, because I sure as hell ain't a depressed person, though, I do have my moments, just as everyone else does.
This is where I will be 100% myself, expressing my thoughts & feelings on different matters & also my daily life.
What I hope to do here on this blog, is to put a smile on your face &, hopefully, let you know it's okay to be yourself; to be proud of who you are!
If you do read my blog & you find that you find what I say has some truth to it, or my wackiness & randomness of my true self puts a good smile on your face, please don't hesitate to comment & let me know! Putting a smile on someone's face is always the best thing! It'd make my day! :)
Well, I hope you enjoy my blog... Have a good day! :)

Quick Post!
Anyway, I think there's some sort of famous illustrator staying in our B&B, but I'm unsure. His name is Rance Jones. He arrived and Dad showed him to his room and the norm. Then, Dad came into the kitchen to get the guy some coffee and banana cake. I asked him what the new guest was like.
"Well, he's an artist from Dallas... And he's an asshole!"
Mam & I couldn't stop laughing at Dad's outburst. However, I could sort of see why Dad thought of him as one when I talked to him for like a couple of seconds. It's his ways that give off the asshole vibe. He might be alright otherwise.
When, I was talking to mam after that, she said to Google him, for the craic! Mind you, we don't usually do this sort of stuff, but it was for the fun of it! Turns out that there's an extremely good illustrator under the same name living in Dallas. I'm unsure if it's him though - I can't get a clear photo on Google. It would be amazing if it was!
I might ask him, if I can tomorrow, what does he specialise in to see if it's really him...
Been looking up sights...
Either this guy... http://www.rancejonesart.com/Rance_Jones.html
Or this guy... http://rancejones.com/welcome.html
But I'm pretty sure the men mentioned in both of these websites are the one guy. There's no clear photo though, so I'll still have to ask. Amazing artwork though! I would love if this was the guy staying in our home!
Anyway, I better be off to bed! I'll chat to ye soon.
Goodnight! :)
P.S.
You have to look up the movie,
The Matchmaker. I love it! It
was made in my local area a few
years ago! It's fecking hilarious!

Hum Diddley Dum!
Laying in bed...
Anyway, after all that, me & my sister watched the beginning together before she had to go to bed & I watched the rest. I'm going to give her my laptop to watch the rest tomorrow or whenever. :)
Random thought... I wonder is my friend really A-okay... I really hope she tells me whats wrong next time, instead of just blogging it... She says she's a problem communicating her problems, which I can understand, but something bugs me about it all... I don't know... I hope this ain't the beginning of a series of unfortunate events & knowing my luck, it may be... Hopefully, I can see her again this year & we can talk more in person rather than over Skype. At least we talked this morning too. I had never felt so horrible in my life until last night. I could actually understand why people have suicidal thoughts, though I could never do it to my family and friends, of course, but I had very bad thoughts, thinking she may not want me any more... Blah... I really love her... I hope I never have to feel that way again. I don't think I could survive without our friendship.
I'm just going to have to try to talk to her more. She's going to have to learn to reply to all my messages though!
Anyway, I better sleep now! I have to get up to serve breakfast in 6hrs! :O
Oh & my brother is playing in the finals tomorrow, like I mentioned. My dad & sister are going to go up and watch & I'll stay home and help mam.

My Day :)
Get dressed. Go upstairs. Clean the B&B bedrooms with Mam/Dad. Hoover said rooms. Eat lunch. Breath for a bit. Fold sheets & towels. Breath some more... I'm currently breathing some more.
Earlier, my younger sister mentioned that Avengers Assemble was on at 2pm in the small theatre in town. I thought we could go into town on the bus and the two of us could watch it. Her twin brother is going to see it today as well, with the school soccer team (they're heading up to Dublin to the All Ireland FAI final for the primary school teams. The movie is a little treat! I hope he wins tomorrow!). However, the bus times are shite. There was only three times the bus was going by the end of our road and they were either too early or way too late! The joy of relying on public transport in the middle of a rural area! So, I said we could stream the film online or something after dinner. It'll be nice. :)
