The Truth ™

September 17, 2008

Hey…..

Why do you blog?  I bet it isn’t for fun.  No.

I blog to get away from the real world; to relax; to get away from it all, etc.

That’s the truth.  I posted about Aguair like that before because I was sick of being treated unfairly.  Everything is soooo unfair.

I came to blogging so I could get away from it all, to find shelter from the storm. 

So I felt really sad when nobody treats me good.

I understand that I have been really mean.  I’m sorry.  Too late now, of course, I guess.

Some people have everything…

I like blogging because it’s a chance for me to open up to people.  I find it really hard to do that normally.  I was hoping a blog might change that in some way.

I don’t care if I’m not “popular”…if I’m “nerdy” or mean.  I’m me, and that’s who I am and who I’ll always be.

I believe in staying true to myself, no matter what, so I’m not going to lie about things to make me look good.  I’m going to stay true to myself.

It’s hard.  I get angry so easily.  If you know me in real life you would see that I’m a pretty happy person, normally smiling and so on.

But some things make me reallly angry or sad.  Like Luke [don’t ask who he is], getting beaten by Calvin on science tests all the time, and getting picked on.

I also think it’s unfair how some people avoid getting punished simply because they are the teachers pet or have a lot of people who do whatever they say.

I don’t need any of that.  I believe I can succeed in life by being who I am, and only who I am.

I will continue to blog about stuff, as much as I can, because I know deep down inside it’s what I love doing.

Because if you’re doing what you love, it’ll make you happy.  I don’t care if every single one of you who visits this site leaves now.  That’s fine. 

I can do it.

I can succeed by being me.  By being the mean me, the smart me, the nerdy me.

The me who looks for help from others.

I made that post because I think friends can really comfort you in your time of need. 

That’s what’s blogging’s about.  Posting about your thoughts, feelings, sort of like a diary anyone can read.

That is what I call a blog.

If a window of opportunity appears, don’t pull down the shade.

  3. Redcowz Says:

    Josh i don’t want to leave u with the thought of the review. I am also remember all the good times we shared. I have no doubts you are a good person. But i think we should “take a break” and maybe later become friends again. To avoid conflict


  4. Reviews are your opinion. Noone is supposed to judge your opinion. So dont let people take away your freedom of speech. Keep rockin on josh!! (I used blog to express my freedom of thought,word,and ideas) 🙂

  5. ~.Narnia.~ Says:

    Yes!! Use your blog to express your feelings, and thoughts. That’s what I love about having a blog, it’s not just about Club Penguin. It was nice of you to admit to wrongdoings, that’s nice to see! 🙂

  6. Tk Says:

    =O
    Awwww, I’m so sorry about my comment on your other post, I didn’t mean it as an insult 😦
    I love Reading blogs, and I would love to start one, but I don’t have the nerve to 😛 So I admire those who just say everything that’s on their mind, I really do! I’ll come here everyday from now on =P

    Take care,
    Tk


  7. This was a good post! I didn’t read this post when I made the comment on the last one. And I guess Opus is right…it IS your opinion.
    Im not saying that I agree. Far from it, but I think you have redeemed yourself a bit in my book.

  8. dillon Says:

    It is ok to give a blog review. But attacking the person in the review is bad!!! He has done this before on his old site. His apology should go to the person he attacked.


  9. he never insulted ag. he gave his own critical opinion. he has the right to be as critical as he wants as long as he doesnt say “so dont go there EVER”. And which,he didnt. he gave a negative review yes,but lots of movies have gotten worse. so his review post was just his own critical opinion. and he shouldnt be assaulted for that.

  10. javallama Says:

    I think you can do whatever you want on a blog, but I dont think you should have the right to make people feel down about themselves (Not saying you did, but just in general). So yeah. Thats were I stand on the matter of critical posts 🙂

  11. ζiρΦ7 Says:

    He called Ag a liar. If that isn’t an insult, what is? How many movie reviews have you read that has attacked a person by calling them a liar? He posted because he was mad. He has done that before. Mean is mean, freedom of speech or not. Whatever.

  12. [h@D Says:

    Ohmygod. Olly! Its Santa! I soooo didnt see that coming

  13. Dieter (not logged on) Says:

    nice post


  14. Ya know, Josh, I didn’t even know you had a blog!!! I am so glad you are blogging, this whole time I thought you were through with it. Sorry to hear about the tangle, maybe you should take a vacation. 😀 Nah, JK, Crys, Zipo, and me would miss you too much.


  15. i still dont see it. point it out where he said it


  16. okay i found it, But he said he lied about his age. Not saying he was a liar all the time. Now people I dont know why a blog review can cause so much trouble. Oh and Welcome Back zipo.


  17. life would be so much easier if we were all Daoists

  18. [h@D Says:

    life would be much easier if we were all stupid.

  19. Aguair Says:

    Why would I need to?

    I don’t need to mention your name. Why would I?

    I don’t need to know you. And I’m happier this way.

  20. javallama Says:

    Aguair! SHUT UP! Your kinda making it worse for yourelf. Get over it, your like a f’ing 10 year old girl who is spoiled rotten. Yeah, thats right, I just said that 🙂


  21. OMG! This post was soooo moving!
    It really touched me and made me wonder for some seconds “What am i doing here?”
    Oh my gawd i would give you the prize of post of the year!!!

  22. Aguair Says:

    Java: Not everything revolves around you. I was talking to Josh regarding a comment he made for me. You don’t need to intrude like a deluded parrot.

    I don’t think I’m the 10 year old girl here. That prize should go to the one who can’t get over how “amazing” they are. One that’s a demented ‘Llama’.

    I’m done here. I think Javallama should get over theirself.

  23. [h@D Says:

    Aguair just Move to China and Marry a curtain dig a hole crawl in it and dont come out until the sun has blown out and collapsed into a black hole because nobody cares

  24. javallama Says:

    Man that was better than mine. 😦 . Aguair, I dont really think that had anything to do with me, but whatever. As far as a parrot, thats a complment, parrots are cool 🙂

  25. javallama Says:

    You have no idea how fun parrots have. Honestly, they almost rival llamas. ALMOST though. Llama’s rock the universe


  26. Good Lordy Lord now JavaLlama and Aguair are fighting.
    Argh I don’t wanna get into this.


  27. My Gosh!

    Josh, I’m glad you blog to express yourself. It’s a great thing to do, but it doesn’t have to be negative. You aren’t mean, so don’t put yourself down. We all lose it sometimes, snap, and we’ve just got to let it out. We get frustrated, it’s human nature. So don’t feel like you’re alone.

    I think everyone needs to see, the world isn’t fair. It never will be, and it never has been. That ant you stepped on today, he hasn’t got it very good has he? And you think your life isn’t fair, look at him, half squashed but still grasping on to life. He gets on with it though, and he either makes do with a missing leg or dies. That hobo on the street, he hasn’t got it very good has he? He can’t get a job because he doesn’t look very presentable and can’t afford education. He is stuck in a ever continuous cycle of poverty. Now he has it bad.
    We really have no right to complain. It puts things in perspective doesn’t it?

    We are so, so lucky. I can’t stress that enough. Us humans, look at everything we have, everything we have achieved. We are so much! And even though we may look small, compared to all thats out there – let me tell you, we are so special! Is there anyone exactly like you? No! That just proves how unique you are!

    The last thing I’d like to point out is: why fight? We have so much to be happy about! Why do we always dwell on the bad but never on the good. “Love knows no wrongs”. My school chaplain said that the other day, and it really hit me. It shouldn’t matter what race, religion, culture or opinion you have, we shouldn’t need to hate each other. What good does it do? None! Maybe we get some cruel pleasure from being mean, but love is so, so much more rewarding. We always have to have the last word! Just accept that you have done wrongs and move on. Is it that hard?

    I doubt this little comment (Well slightly larger than little, but anyhow) is going to be life changing for anyone – if it were, I bet the world would be much simpler to live in – but I beg, I pray, I hope with every fibre of my being that this will effect someone, even in the smallest of ways. I can only hope that this won’t just be something you simply read, but something that you act on.

    Go smile at someone today, compliment someone you wouldn’t normally talk to. Go talk to the kid sitting on his own. Think, how much of a sacrifice is it for you to sit next to that loner? So you don’t sit with your friend for one lesson, and you make that person’s day. You may not see it, but you have just improved that person’s life. You’ve made that person a little happier, if only for a moment. You have given the miracle of happiness.
    Hug a friend in the morning, tell your parents that you love them, pat your dog. Forget yourself for a day and try and improve the world. It’s not hard. I don’t care what you say, you can effect the world. You, that one person in billions can make the world a better place.

    So next time you go to argue with someone, think about what you are going to say. Remember this message. Think: Are you actually doing good?
    Next time you go to the shops, say thanks to the service people. Next time someone is sitting alone, tell your friend you will sit with them next lesson, and befriend the loner. When you see a disabled person don’t point and giggle, try and understand. And when you have someone angry at you, yelling and ranting on, don’t retaliate, try and understand why they are angry and what they could possibly be going through.
    Love knows no bounds.

  31. javallama Says:

    I’m wouldnt say I’m fighting with Aguair, because I’m having a great time with it. All I’m saying is that he has temper tantrums like 10 year old girls 🙂

  32. Squishy133 Says:

    Does no one listen?

    ~Squishy133~

  33. Aguair Says:

    I listened Squishy. I’m not fighting, anymore.

  37. Patrick Says:

  38. javallama Says:

    Honestly, do you expect me to read that entire post that is somehow a comment? Anyway, I wont fight (NOT THAT I EVER WAS) and yeah. Also, is Aguair really a girl or did you just say that to be funny?

  39. Glad there isn’t so much (apparently non-apparent) fighting…but so what if my comment was long. Geesh…

    ~Squish1y33~


  40. you comment was long and nice squishy, but a majority of it was just examples about the loner and homeless guy and whatnot.
    good comment though, but i think the little “not fight thing” is different.


  41. Ah, the consequence of blogging, People taking little opinions and making mountains out of them. Im going back in my box now.

  42. Squishy133 Says:

    Boxes are always fun. 🙂 Especially really big ones for tv’s… 😀

    ~Squishy133~


  43. omg i love boxes. me and my friends used to play this game where we would get into a big box with a ton of pillows and the other people would roll the box around onto different sides and you would be tumbled around inside with the pillows.
    tons of fun! being the super creative kids we were, it was called…”the box game”

  44. javallama Says:

    Boxes are pretty damn cool. I just read Zipos comments on Aguair’s blog, and I think that he should go lie down in a fluffy box for awhile.

  45. Squishy133 Says:

    A fluffy box, hmm…. a normal box, with added fluffy goodness? It’s a box lover’s dream!
