Enjoy Life and Take a Chance

This song is pretty awesome-I was looking up to see if there was a Ratchet and Clank Movie soundtrack with the movie coming out soon (And it's totally wicked from clips and trailer I've seen. :) A BETTER Movie adaption of an awesome game than that Angry Birds movie-no offense). Anyway I stumbled across this song last night-very addicting, yet encouraging and inspiring.

Live it Up from Owl City-As I listen to it over and over (And I had bits of the song in my head today while I was working today-talk about a song in your head), it tells how you should take chances and risks when they come into your life-Carpe Diem: Seize the Day! To live life every day as if it was your last, to enjoy every moment, every minute, every hour-take chances and risks, have an adventure, do something unexpected and crazy.

An underdog can become a top dog by showing everyone what he/she can do, what one is capable of when they are tested or want to prove a point or show the world just how incredible they are. To pursue your dreams and reach for the stars, to feel alive and live life in your own way that makes you happy and energized.

So let's live it up and enjoy life, try new things to discover what interests us, what we can improve on, what we are capable of by trying and live life the best way we can.

When Life gives you Tomatoes

This is quite a funny quote that I've came up with by myself-it was inspired by my favorite Movie "Dr. Seuss's The Lorax" (2012). In the scene the Once-ler is trying to sell his Thneed in Greenville, but each time he tries to sell it and about to sing a song-people throw tomatoes at him, but he kept trying even if a little girl destroyed his guitar-HE NEVER gave up (Well when he got very frustrated after many days he did-but surprisingly the thneed became popular and everyone wanted to buy it when the thneed proved itself on its own).

But you know what I learned from that scene? Life can be challenging, hard, difficult, even troublesome at times-even when your trying to make your dreams come true, there's gonna be those who don't believe in you or think that it's impossible.



When life throws tomatoes at you, just catch those tomatoes and make tomato soup out of it-or a pizza, don't let it splatter all over you and pile you in its juices and peels. You gotta catch those tomatoes in a basket and make something out of them. 


Ya know the old saying, "Life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Well the same goes for Tomatoes-when life gives ya tomatoes, make tomato soup or pizza out of it-even tomato juice.



Believe me-I went through many hardships in my life: Being Bullied in school, finding a job, dealing with issues and situations. And at times I had a few tomatoes on my face, but I kept moving forth, catching the ongoing tomatoes charging at me and make a pizza out of it-and sometimes tomato soup (Which is very delicious with croutons or grilled cheese to go with it). I never gave up: I ignored the bullies as best I could, I studied hard and even graduated as Saludictorian in high school (Valedictorian in 8th grade), got my Bachelor degree in Library Science AND even found a job as a shelver at my local library.

So remember-if Life should throw tomatoes at you, don't be bombarded and covered in them-make something out of them-especially a delicious pizza. Don't let nobody stand in the way of your dreams-even if one dream is to run a pizza joint with unique flavors nobody has ever heard of.
