What can I say??

Stumbling once again
As I'm in the middle of Finals week, and feeling good about just finishing up my 2nd to last final, I splurged and decided to waste time on StumbleUpon again! Came across this one which I think I've seen in the past.. but I'm bringing about because it is so so so so so so true.
What Girls Need to Realize:
We guys don't care if you talk to other guys.
We don't care if you're friends with other guys.
But when you're sitting next to us, and some random guy walks into the room and you jump up and tackle him, without even introducing us, yeah, it pisses us off ......
It doesn't help if you sit there and talk to him for ten minutes without even acknowledging the fact that we're still there
We don't care if a guy calls or texts you
but at 2 in the morning we do get a ... little ... ... concerned.
Nothing is that important at 2 am
That it can't wait till the morning.
Also, when we tell you you're pretty/beautiful/gorgeous/
cute/stunning, we freaking mean it.
Don't tell us we're wrong.
We'll stop trying to convince you
The sexiest thing about a girl is confidence.
Yeah, you can quote me.
Don't be mad when we hold the door open
Take Advantage of the mood im in.
Let us pay for you!
don’t "feel bad"
We enjoy doing it.
It's expected.
Smile and say "thank you”.
Kiss us when no one's watching.
If you kiss us when you know somebody's
looking, we'll be more impressed.
You don't have to get dressed up for us
If we're going out with you in the first place, you don't have to feel the need to
wear the shortest skirt you have or put on every kind of makeup you own. We like you for who you are and not what you are.
It seems that we make mistakes...
I guess that was an attempt at not looking shallow.
Haha... yeah we make mistakes.
Honestly think a girl looks more beautiful when she's just in her pj's.
or my t-shirt and boxers, not all dolled up.
Don't take everything we say seriously.
Sarcasm is a beautiful thing. See the beauty in it.
Don't get angry easily.
Stop using magazines/media as your bible.
Don't talk about how hot Chris Brown,
Brad Pitt,or Jesse McCartney is in front of us or any other guy is
It's boring, and we don't care.You have girlfriends for that.
and it pisses us off
Whatever happened to the word "handsome"/"beautiful"
i'd be utterly stunned by a girl who greeted me
with "Hey handsome!"instead of "Hey baby/stud/cutie/sexy"or whatever else you can think of.
On the other hand im not sayin i woulndnt like it ether ; )
Girls, I cannot stress this enough:if you aren't being treated right by a guy, dont wait for him to change!!!!!
Ditch his sorry ass, disgrace to the male population
and find someone who will treat you with utter respect
Someone who will honor your morals
Someone who will make you smile when you're at your lowest.
Someone who will care for you even when you make mistakes.
Someone who will love you, no matter how bad you make them feel.
Someone who will stop what they're doing just to look you in the eyes.... and say "i love you", and actually mean it.
Give the nice guys a chance.
Guys repost this if you agree
Girls repost this if you think it's cute.
Every Guy who isn't a jerk will agree with this. so we hope that all the girls that read this will repost this.

Stumbled Upon...
I was moseying about StumbleUpon earlier today and found this! Had to share. Though I wish I knew how to find the source to give them credit.
1.Never stop thinking. This is important. If someone ever says to you ‘You need to stop thinking so much,’ call them ignorant in your head and keep thinking deeper. It is this mentality that breeds stupidity and sheeple. Your mind is the most important tool you have, if you stop using it, it will atrophy. Question everything.
2. Stare into space blankly and don’t mentally punish yourself for doing it, even if it is for that split second. If you have a problem with staring blankly, think of it as daydreaming.
3. Root Beer sucks after having spicy food.
4. Everything is going to be just fine. If you worry about acne, you’re going to get a fucking pimple.
5. Don’t be afraid to talk about anything. You shouldn’t be afraid of reality.
6. Everyone is a hypocrite.
7. You are all original. Every life experience is case sensitive and unique. Every time you wake up or go to the bathroom or quote someone else, you are becoming more you than anyone has ever been.
8. Do pointless things. Don’t actively restrain or hide yourself from the redundant.
9. Stop rushing. Shut up and embrace the sound of silence.
10. Religion shouldn’t be taught, it should be found. No one should tell you what to believe except you. And while were on the subject…
11. Don’t be restrained by one religion. People change every moment of everyday. Minds grow and evolve. Religion has no law so feel free to mix and match. Make your own.
12. Going to the bathroom is not a right nor a privilege. it’s an act of nature.
13. Talking to yourself is healthy. Is there anyone that you have more in common with?
14. There is no such thing as time. The sun never sets or rises. Days and years don’t exist. There is only your life. Earlier today you were born and death is predicted later in the evening.
15. We will always be in a transitional phase. Look outside and know that everything will be replaced at some point. This existence is temporary.
16. Its not half empty or half full. Its half a glass.
17. Every now and then take something that you see everyday and try to see it in a different light. Renew its existence.
18. Be happy, but don’t force it.
19. You will always succeed in trying.
20. We are all crazy. Every person you read about in the history books had some kind of ‘disorder’, they just knew how to use it.
21. We are all about as similar as we are different.
22. Ideas are just as valuable as people. Why do you think we keep making people?
87. Numbers don’t have to go in order.
24. Words will always be just words. Love is just another four letter word, only the feeling is real.
25. Ask a child for advice. They may not know much, but they know what is important.
26. Prove you’re alive. Do anything from dancing in the supermarket to screaming ‘Fuck’ during a moment of silence. Remind the world you are still here.
27. Don’t take anything, even this, too seriously.
A few rules.

30!
Day Thirty
A picture of someone you miss:
My cousin Nigel Olsen! Sadly Nigel was killed in action in Afghanistan on March 4th, 2010. One of the great shocks of my life, but I admire Nigel for serving our Country and for pursuing the life that he always wanted to live. As far as I can remember back in my life, I knew Nige (his nickname!) always wanted to serve our Country, and knew that is what he was passionate about. He's probably one of the few in the world where those left to remember him can say without a single doubt that He died living his dream. RIP Nigel Olsen.

Day Twenty-Eight
A picture of something you are afraid of:
A picture of something you are afraid of:
Achilles tendon injuries! I chose a picture of a ruptured tendon, but any kind of injury scares me. The achilles feels like the most vunerable spot to me! To add to that, after taking some EMT classes and understanding what happens if that tendon is cut, it's easily one of the biggest things I'm afraid of.

1, 2, 3 Left!
Day Twenty-Seven
A picture of you and a family member:
Uhhhhh what did I say in my last post about this getting repetitive? I've already had like 4 photos of my family on here... Anyways, here is a family member who unfortunately is no longer with us.
Yeaaaaah photo doesn't look the best, I was trying a new scanner/upload from my Tablet and it apparently doesn't like the colors on the photos. But either way it works! There is Bunny (aka Frodo) a recently deceased member of our family. At least, I considered him to be!
Here is another photo of that awesome rabbit doing a cool trick:
Hahah awesome! Now you might ask why him going up on two feet to get a treat is a trick, but it was sound-activated! (Pavlov's Bells anyone?). He would also give kisses and was all-around just an awesome animal. Also, for those of you who might be wondering how a rabbit got so fat, he's just big-boned (true story). He was a French Lop breed which get massive!
Having owned two rabbits before him (a Holland Lop and a random mix of something) I was amazed when I first picked him up at 6 weeks old. The breeder brought him out and put him on a table, and I thought she had brought out the mother of the "baby" I was here to pick up. At 6 weeks he was bigger than my previous rabbits had ever gotten in their life. At full size, he was around 3' long (yes that's feet) and I want to say weighed somewhere between 12-16lbs. It's hard to weigh a bunny.
Unfortunately he died not too long ago of old-age. But, he was still one of the coolest rabbits ever.
