insomnia with a cause. - July 28th, 2007

GOOD MORNING BLOGATHONERS!
wow, i stayed up.
so here i am.
tired as heck and ready to go for 24.

i'm gonna try to post about 49 things i want to accomplish.

first thing i want to do is be on tv.
doesn't everyone?
i mean, the fame, fortune, whatever.
whether it's a talk show, or on the news, heck!
as long as people see me, i'm all for it.
who doesn't wanna be on tv? honestly.
unless you're camera-shy or paranoid.
which i am both, but whatever.
i can't wait to be on oprah, giving health tips.
jerry springer, admitting i married my second uncle's nephew's daughter's aunt's third cousin.
infomercials for diet pills, whatever.
good morning to everyone in television land.

2. change the world.

another thing everyone wants to do is change the world somehow.
i get that, i do.
it's not that realistic, because everything you do can change the world but not significantly.
like turning off a light to prevent global warming, that kind of thing.
what i'm talking about is founding an organization of some sort, somehow.
when i get older.

change the world in a huge way.
world peace, end world hunger, help third world countries.
something that makes a difference somehow.
that'd be nice. :]

3. make money.

and i don't mean borrow it or anything.
i mean make it.
i want to earn my cash for once!
that's why they call it hard-earned.
i'll regret it later, of course.
wanting to work and all.
but i want to earn money.
i think i'll accomplish this within a few years.

a best-selling one.

5. break a record.

again, everyone wants to do this.
but i'm determined.
longest time on the internet?
longest time watching tv?
slowest time falling asleep?
most sushi eaten in one hour?
heck!
i can do those.
i really should find out what the records are for the things i'm good at.
maybe i can break the record for not breaking a record.

6. learn to play a guitar.

i learned how when i was a lot younger, but obviously forgot.
i remember knowing how to play mary had a little lamb.
that was awesome.
i know how to drum and play the piano.
and apparently my musical talent is in abundance.
so why not teach me the guitar?

8. give up coke.

for a bunch of reasons.
it keeps me up.
it makes me nervous and jumpy.
it's not healthy and has tons of sugar.
and it's just not good for me.
i don't want to give it up though.
hell, i have like 4 cases of it on the back porch.
i'm drinking my third or so of the day.
aaah. i'm gonna be like tweek, man.
at least now i know why i'm so jumpy all the time.

eek.

9. make a cool discovery.

i've always wanted to.
like find a secret message in a movie, or a famous book.
make headlines: "CANADIAN FINDS SECRET MESSAGE!"
i don't mean like, the cure for cancer or anything.
i don't plan on being a scientist.
i mean discover something like that everything is linked.
or that john travolta is a woman.
or something, yknow? something cool.
