Things are Changing!

So many little things in my life have changed recently. I'm thinking of life in new perspectives. I'm seeing heaven in the moon and beauty in the power of next generation communication. I can't help but smile.

I know things are changing because of two small changes I've made recently:

1. I like spicy food. I never liked spicy food in the past, but I guess all I needed was a tasty meal from a group of friends and some self created social pressure to get me started. Everyone else is eating it without complaint, why can't I? Even though I was really feeling the heat, I kept my mouth shut about the pain until my eyes starting watering and I could finally say, "Wow, this is really spicy. "Everyone agreed strongly, and it was then that I knew I could handle the spice. Now, I have come to love it.

2. I started playing hard mode in Guitar Hero and Rock Band. The fifth fret always intimidated me, but now that I've practiced, I know I can handle that too. Nick and I would even play on score duel mode on expert, and I'd get anywhere from 50 - 80%. Granted, I can't really say that was because of any sort of developed skill -- if you press lots of buttons and hit the strum bar a lot, you're bound to hit some keys.

I know those are two things that seem like insignificant skills or interests, but I feel different. I'm on track to keep living life for today, so why wait for tomorrow?

Youtube seriously needs a repeat option for this song.

"We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of this world.
We’ll add enough of the world"
