Expect the Unexpected

i’m an old-fashioned person. i’ve been like that ever since i was younger. i can’t say that my family isn’t the richest of the bunch, so we aren’t a spending spree family. we save up and spend when we can. that’s why i’m no so hype with the style these days. don’t necessarily have that clean swag style. i like it. i can spend when i deserve or need to.

i love love love the radio. love the serious yet funny talk shows within local stations. i definitely love the music only because singing is also one of my favorite of being old-fashioned. it is old-fashioned/tradition. we’ve been doing it before we even knew what it was called. its a hobby, as i like to say, of mine. and music is my life. grew up with, played, and listened, it shaped me.

lastly, i love newspapers. before i had the hobby of collecting different newspapers from different major cities just to be a nerd and see the layout difference and the way journalists write. i like reading all the different stories, major or minor. i like to catch up with current events. its the most inquisitive topic starter. 

after realizing that i am this certain way, i’m glad i’m starting to act like an older person. i need to stop being a kid.

I have a reason I keep my head up everyday.

We all have struggles. All of us, no matter who we are, we face one every single day. It may be a small argument between our parents, a fight amongst our friends, or even a brawl with our significant other. I for one face them but I never leave my chin down. Sometimes it’s tough and I’ll cry until I can’t cry anymore, but once the day is over and I sleep for the rest of the night, my day is always brighter the next morning. Don’t feel hurt if someone rejects you, parents kicking you out, or having a break-up. Live another day. The next day, redeem yourself only to show that you are stronger than what they’ve done to you. Always say that “No one can bring me down, and if they do, then I’ll just get right back up.” Prove to yourself that you’re a tough human being even if you’re not so beefy, like myself. Everyone I talk to, everyone I meet, everyone I see, I try to make them smile, knowing that, that one smile could make their shitty day better with a simple gesture. I strive to make people happy because with that I make myself happy. 

If some random person attempts to talk to you, take that opportunity to get to know them even if its only a couple moments. You learn wise things even from a lunatic(don’t talk to them if they’re mean or suicidal, that’s too much). Its second nature to me, and if everyone tried getting out of their comfort zone to make someone else happy once in awhile, it would make the world a better place.
