Lessons Learned (and things we should never forget) Part 2
How is it, the second week of no new AnS?
Too many lessons learned. I would like to put in everything, but then again, where would be the fun in that? Self-discovery, as they say, is the best teacher. ERGO, REWATCH. LOL.
Have you all read The Alchemist by Paolo Coelho? Teaches some very good life lessons.
...
This post has absolutely nothing to do with that book, or Paulo Coelho, or in-depth wisdom.
I was just being random.
Here we go.
* Live life. Laugh. Open your arms wide. Jump. Yell. Embrace it. BE HAPPY!! YATTA!!!! Notice that those who look ridiculous have the most fun. And those who watch them be ridiculous (meaning us, fangirls) win most.
* Look at the camera. Smile. Pout. PROJECT~ Remember, your best props are your smile (don't hold back). Your skin (just... don't burn it to a crisp too much). Your charm (seriously, you don't need a lure or a bait).
* Be comfortable in your own skin. Of course, your God-given skin (with no clothing on) would be most preferred, but even when forced into "another" skin, own it. OWN IT. Even when you're failing.
* Fly. Wings come in so many shapes and sizes. Even if they say those can't possibly be wings that can actually bring you places, BELIEVE. For if you won't believe in yourself.... WHO WOULD? *laughs at the failboat*
* Express yourself. If you want something, say it. Go for it. It's the easiest, most direct way of having your greatest dreams come to fruition. Why be shy? (Not like it was one of your traits, to begin with.)
* Whatever the say, sometimes, SIZE DOES MATTER. And, if you have it, FLAUNT IT.
* DEFY, DEFY, DEFY. Don't be a sheep. Be your own self, enforce your own identity. Be a brat. Be a space cadet. Don't pretend to be anything else you're not. You'll be more appreciated that way. (Right? Right? Tell me, would you adore Nino as much as you do if he weren't a brat? Would you love Ohno as much as you do if he was a DoS???)
* No man is an island. Even Santa needed help from his elves. Same way as Aiba needs help from Jun.
* Don't be a saint. It's fun to be evil once in a while. (This is a totally pointless lesson, LOL!) Especially if it's toward something that threatens your throne as "the cutest thing on the face of the earth".
* Love the earth. Be eco. If you can save up on cloth, do so. LOLLLLLL. Now that I think of it, you are still wearing way too many clothes, Aiba-chan.
* Save for the rainy day. I think that's how the camels do it, with a 'compartment' somewhere in their system to store some food....? I don't know my Zoology. Anyway, if you have a wide mouth, all the better, too. Maybe that would shut you up as well. Not that I want Aiba to shut up, but... yeah.
* Share. Sharing, after all, is caring.
* Never let appearances fool you. (check out his shirt) Just 'cause he wears that does not mean he's from an Ivy League school. LOL.
* Always, ALWAYS, be curious. That is the one strength of children, their thirst for knowledge. Never stop asking questions, it makes things more interesting. Never lose the child in you.
* Don't hide, or put on pretenses. It won't last. Your real self will show up anyway. XDD
* Be aware of everything - and everyone - around you. Some might say ignorance is bliss, but... who would want to be oblivious to THIS?!
And some recommended reading for this course.
(I know I did something illegal with these lameass slap-and-paste 'em caps, but wth. All in good fun!)
And with that, I end this post.
OHWAIT.
Hotlinking this, too. Aherm.
Know what this means???????
