A Question for the Masses

(Or, more accurately, the 5-10 people who read or have ever read this blog. But enough with trivialities. On to the question.)

The question being: Is there anyone out there in the world who watches as much YouTube as I do? If so, does that person have some free time between June 28-30 of 2012? And would that person want to go to Anaheim with me? You know. Could be fun...

Heavens, that was three times the questions I originally intended to ask. If only other parts of life were so unexpectedly overabundant. Right. Bed.

Cheers.

5 Things I Know to be True

So...
Lately, I've kinda, sorta, maybe lost a tiny little bit of focus when it comes to my blog. Or my future. Or my plans. Or much of anything. Therefore, in an attempt to regain my focus--and maybe a little creativity at the same time--I am stealing a poetry exercise from Sarah Kay.

5 Things I Know to be True:

1.)  I love knowing things. (Maybe not the "learning" part necessarily, but I am deeply fond of being a walking, talking Lins-apedia.)

2.) I like smart people. I love kind people. (I know there are millions of different kinds of smart, but I believe that the socially aware, academically bent, well spoken, open-minded, genuine and creative spirits are the ones I want in my life most of all.)

3.) I'm afraid of failure. (I'm trying to change this about myself. Something about learning and growing and what not.)

4.) I'm rather introspective. (As I am sure is obvious to you, seeing as four of my five truths are about me. But then, if we do not know ourselves, how can we ever hope to know the world?)

5.) All the knowledge in the world is worth nothing in the face of human relationships. (I believe this to be true. Sometimes it is just hard to remember that I do. So to Libby and Calli and Sara, thank you. Thank you for reminding me that I can. Mostly because of you.)


P.S. - If you would like to, please feel free to reply with Truths of your own, for we could all use a little more truth in this life.
