What's your perspective?

I have recently noticed how different my reactions are from that of my friends and family. Understandably, we are all individual and come from different upbringings, but it got me thinking, how is it that I view a situation so different than that of the person sitting right beside me seeing the exact same thing I am seeing. This little rant has nothing to do with me thinking they are right or wrong, it's just interesting to me.

I was waiting in line at Hannaford to get rung up and there was a lady in front of me, paying for her groceries. She accidentally gave the lady $1 short of the total, so the cashier asked her for another dollar, what I thought was politely. The customer heard the cashier ask for the dollar in a snappy tone and started yelling all sorts of absurd things (Some of which didn't make sense or even work in that sentence.) Threw the dollar at her, and took off.

What I was thinking was, maybe the cashier was being snappy, maybe I don't recognize it. Maybe the customer wanted to get mad at someone and the cashier was the closest person. How can one really tell. I mean, there are some situations where it is extremely obvious that someone is being very polite, and in this case the cashier was being pretty neutral. (Not really smiling or showing enthusiasm)

Maybe that's what I'll do this winter. A little project. I'll watch peoples reactions in certain situations, jot it down in a notepad, and then write what I gathers from the situation.

This could be interesting.

Life: Today and a little bit of Yesterday.: you beg, steal, you borrow

Life: Today and a little bit of Yesterday.: you beg, steal, you borrow: "Hold on.It goes by so fast. In this city, there is so much to do, but I have yet to try any of it. I've found the few things ..."

you beg, steal, you borrow

Hold on.

It goes by so fast.

In this city, there is so much to do, but I have yet to try any of it. I've found the few things that make me happy, and I stick to them. One, is my weekly trip to my favorite cafe where I buy a medium house-roast coffee, banana bread, and sit in my favorite corner. The other things is riding my bike to the pier at night, watching the boats, occasionally bringing a friend and a bottle of some bubbly. There is just something about being near the water that seems to have a place in my heart.

On a recent late night trip to the pier, I went with one of my best friends AP. The trip to the pier didn't really have any purpose other than to just sit there. We both enjoy the place and find the water comforting.

So here we are, two girls, sharing a bottle of Riesling and discussing our many woes and troubles as of lately. It was nice, we weren't alone, but there was no one disturbing us. We discussed things in detail and tried and figure out a few of life's questions.

Nothing was really accomplished or solved, but by the time we both got home, a weight had been lifted off our shoulders, and I had a great nights sleep. You can't really ask for anything more.

Redirection of thoughts.

So. Because of recent events in my personal life I've had a few very stressful, emotional few days. You know, the kind of days where you want something to do but can't make yourself do it. Not wanting to talk to anyone but then feeling lonely by your self inflicted isolation. That's where I was at. So, when I woke this morning feel refreshed and slightly more upbeat, I decided to ignore the rain and pretend that it was a sunny, relaxing, day.

I woke up, laid in bed reading the first few pages of the 'Poisonwood Bible' for about the 10th time. I really don't know if I ever will get past page 5. I hear that with that particular book, it's hard to get started, but then you get really into it. I think I would have to agree. Mostly with the first part.

Next I put on my favorite sun-dress (yes, I knew it was raining), packed my backpack with my Camera, lenses, water, and headed out the door for a nature walk. As I drove closer to my destination, it started to rain harder, to the point where I couldn't see more than 10 feet in front of me. At least I would be cooled off.

So there I was, walking on a muddy trail, camera in hand, walking the wrong way (according to a man with an umbrella.) to which I replied, "Oh, this is just the way I want to go, I love the rain." Funny how even a nice warm rain made everyone run back to their cars. I snapped a few photos then stowed my camera away and just enjoyed the rest of the walk. I didn't rush, the rain really did feel great. External Hydration. By the time I made the loop and was back at my car I was soaking wet from head to toe and had a huge smile on my face. The man at the park entrance said to me, "Have a nice stroll?" and I just replied "The best."

From the beginning.

So to start with, this is me. I go by Molly, but my real name is Magdalena. This blog should have been started long, long ago. Well, it sort of was, but there have been many failed attempts where I just got bored of it or forgot I had even started (which hopefully won't happen this time around.)

I live in a city. Not a large one, but one big enough where I can get a little lost walking, and really lost driving. It can be a lonely place, despite all the people, but it can also be very welcoming with all its over-priced coffee shops and hungry seagulls.

I am currently of the age of 21. Yes, it is a very good age to be. I had no countdown to my birthday. I like being young. Every year when I celebrate my birthday it just reminds me of the old lady that I most likely will become some day. Old and gray. Maybe not such a bad life, but for now, I like feeling youthful. I will probably feel ancient next year when I turn 22.

So this blog doesn't really have an exact purpose. It is for your entertainment, and maybe a slight cure to some of my boredom. (And in case I can't remember anything when I DO get old.) I will post about great things like epic travels and many thoughts and sights I've seen. But don't be surprised if I post things about cakes I've baked, or maybe how I stubbed my toe in the middle of the night while on my way to get a pair of socks. Yes, that has happened.

So please, feel free to follow, comment, and/or disregard anything that might be incoherent ramblings.
