Deadshift Chronicles #6

So apparently there is a saying that goes like this: "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade", well to that I say: "Fuck you! Give me an apple you bastard!!".

So with which topic should I start this Deadshift Chronicle? The one about people being stupid or the one that we shouldn't just accept things as they are? Or should I talk about why everybody should get a penguin?

~ Fuck lemons ~
Okay, so apparently the saying is to encourage optimism or whatever you wish to call it. I just think that apart from seeing the positive side of life, one should also try and reach/achieve their dreams (always depending on what you're dreaming for... I mean if you wan to kill all mankind - good luck with that, but if you want to just rape and kill - you should sign yourself to a psych ward before I get my hands on you).

It is quite hard nowadays to achieve your dreams depending on what it is, but I don't think it is impossible. But from all the things that we go through life, what is your true dream? You can dream something big, like conquering the world and that's a good challenge and I say good luck with that. But what about the small dreams? Like getting a car, having a family, going on that vacation that you've been waiting for for so long or finally getting the job that you wanted? There are things that we take for granted just because circumstances have brought it about and it has been easy that we've never even noticed it. Using as myself as an example: I've achieved one of my small dreams of getting my driver's license and hopefully later on in this year, I'll get my first car. What about my big dream? That someday I'd like to have my own business? Well, I haven't achieved it yet, but I've been moving in that direction (somewhat slowly but at smooth rate - although I believe that I should speed up things a little bit). I do have a fixed job at the moment and it is a good job and something that I like. So am I in that bad of a situation? The answer is no quite. As I'm achieving some of my dreams while working to achieve my big ones. I believe that is the best way to go through life. So if life gives you a lemon, you can go and make lemonade, but why should you? Why should you just be happy with what is given to you? You should not only accept what you have but also try to earn/achieve what you want. Got a crappy job? Don't quit before getting a better deal! And how sure are you of what you want? It's always good to have priorities and dreams, just make sure that after a year, do you still want those dreams or want to give those things high priorities? Recheck what you want to make sure that you get what you want ;)

~ Stupid people ~
The level of human stupidity can really surprise you. Especially when you think that you know a person and believe that this person would never do something that stupid. Well, in my case, the person did it twice. And not only that but believes that forcing situation, will get what she wants. Frankly, I'm not totally sure that I want to be friends with people who do such stupid things, and not once but twice. Okay, you might think that I'm being an ass and that I should respect my friend's decision, but seeing where this might be going and what the situation is, I think you'll agree with me. (Sadly, I'm sworn to secrecy and can't disclose the situation). If you have friends and they are giving you an advice that you're about to do something stupid and yet you still do it, I believe that your friends should respect you and be there for you when "the shit hits the fan". But I also believe that you should at least respect your friendship with them and listen to what they have to say and not act as if you're listening to later just do whatever it is that you want to do. Last year, I had this problem with some friends. They thought I was doing something stupid, I knew that I was doing something stupid, and I told them that I respect and hear what they are saying but I've made the decision to go on with this thing. Well, had a major fall out with some of them, because they kept insisting instead of respecting my decision. On the other hand, it sort of proved who my real friends were, as my real friends accepted my decision for doing something stupid and "the shit to hit the fan" - in this case it didn't quite hit the fan... I don't hold a grudge against them for trying to look out for me. The thing is that I heard what they had to say, I understood what they were saying and based on all that and what the situation was, I made the decision to do something... although it was stupid. But when someone does that same thing twice... and it's not like getting back with your ex, but more like, getting involved with someone who is already in a relationship with some else and you're the third wheel. Well, if you do it once... ok, no biggie... I mean it's your life... when you do it again with the same person and you know that that person isn't going to leave the other person... and you know that it's going to end bad... well, that's just plain fucking stupid and you should get smacked on the back of your head for that!!! And the part of almost wanting to break friendship... well, that comes from that you only get in touch when you get hurt by this other person and need a shoulder to cry on only to later jump back into the same situation. To that I say: what the fuck dude?!

~ Penguins ~
Penguins, do I really have to explain why having penguin is cool? Really?
