Another Quote that I Love

"Look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now" This quote means so much to me. Sometimes I feel like I'm misplaced in the world and useless but when I hear those words in 'That would be enough', I feel like a new door of possibilities has opened up for me. We are lucky to be alive right now.

Not only are we alive at the same time as Lin-Manuel Miranda and Memes, we can do so much, all of us. It's kinda funny because this was from a musical that's based on Alexander Hamilton so unless you were a white male not meant to sound racist, you couldn't do much in America, but now anyone can do anything except fly away from responsibilities .

I will sometimes think that my art if horrible and that I'll never become a good artist but then this quote reminds me that I can improve as long as I'm alive with some pens and paper, my art can go places. My grades are pretty bad so I feel like I wont be able to do much when I'm older but then I remember that I am so lucky to have access to extra help whether it's from an online tutorial or a teacher. We all are gifted with the chance of being alive durring such an amazing time. We should never feel like we don't belong.

If I Had To Work In A School

If I had to work in a school for a little, I would be a kindergarten teacher. I love kids (and hate them).  I am in Leadership at ATA (American Taekwondo Association)  so I always work with kids, whether it's in the Tiny Tiger's class or a Birthday Party for one of my 'smol children' Every little kid at my TKD school is my 'smol child'. I find is very easy to work with little kids since they are so young and playful unlike moody teenagers. I also know how little kids work. I can easily find their weaknesses.

I am also VERY lazy so this would be perfect for me. Kindergartners do not take many tests or do much homework so that means less things to grade! I know the crazy kids will probably cause me a lot of stress but I can take it. I have to take care of a crazy girl named Melissa after all. I know as a fact that kids HATE nap time but I was able to keep a whole camp calm for half an hour over the summer (and these kids were VERY active).

I also adore affection and little kids LOVE their teacher. Tom's little sister always hugs me when she sees me and that's a common reaction that little kids have when they see someone who they look up to.

I am also very exciting when reading to little kids. I try to do the voices and act out the actions so I make reading very fun. That is an important thing when reading to kids. It's best to get kids into reading at a young age so they will love reading when they're older. I don't want them to be like me. I didn't like reading until I was in fourth grade.

I also want these kids to have a good childhood. My best memories are from kindergarten because my life wasn't so messed up.

What I'm Grateful For (besides food)

I curl up in my cozy, warm blanket on a cold November night. I log onto my personal blog (http://neothedragontato.blogspot.com/) and think of what I should write about next while I blast Yorktown into my ears. I suddenly realize that I have not done my post about what I am grateful for. I then wonder what I am thankful for.

I am grateful for Blogger, for how I can express my self in writing.

I am grateful for my lead pencils, for their constant sharpness so my art can be the best it can be.

I am grateful for Lin-Manuel Miranda, for his music which inspires me to show my full potential.

I am grateful for Andrew Hussie, for making such a crazy webcomic that has now impacted my life and made me a peice of fabulous trash.

I am grateful for my baby Daves on my wall, for how they bring back that memory of the best prank ever!

I am grateful for ATA, for giving me a second family, for it's loving care and hard work.

I am grateful for Lenny and Kenny the Skeletons, for how they allow me to use them for skeleton memes.

I am grateful for my laptop, for letting me be able to share my art and memes with people who will know what I'm drawing.

I am grateful for my new friends this school year, for how they don't make me feel so lonely.

I am grateful for Melissa, for her loving care even though she tried killing me in the womb. (comment to know why)

The Best Hot Dog Joint

       I remember this restaurant called Fred Hots. It was a very small hot dog joint but WOW was it amazing. My family would go there all the time. We eventually became good friends with the owner, Fred. He loved Meli and I because we where such cute little things. He would even give us "reindeer food" during Christmas. Sadly, the reindeer treats were just glitter and dry dog food put into a bag. I didn't get to see a reindeer but I did see a squirrel that my dog tried to kill a few months ago (the squirrel had a special tail).

       I was always a strange eater and this restaurant was no exception. My parents would always order the best sweet potato fries. It came with a side of ketchup and nacho cheese. I was bored and very stupid so I asked my mom if I could put some cheese onto my hot dog. My mom was just like "meh, why not?". To this day, I still eat cheese with my hot dog.

       I also remember how he served hot dogs the size of my thumb. They even came in little buns. Meli and I loved them. Me would take faces on them and then kill them in such horrific. It was so fun. We would also sometimes get foot long hot dogs. They always confused me because I thought they would be the size of the person's foot but they were just 12 inches long. I would also make a ketchup face on them and murder the poor thing.

       Sadly, Fred had to close down Fred Hots because it wasn't making enough money. I really miss that place and I would do anything to be able to go there again. My family feels the same way. Though one thing that stands out is the reindeer food because I would love to just throw some at Meli in the middle of the night but I cant. Luckily, I was able to find another great hot dog joint, Portillo's. The cheese is great and the hot dogs are soooooooo good.

Where I Would Go

So I guess I can write things on the blog that were past choices so yeah...

I always enjoyed traveling except when I'm with my sister because we get into fights over the silliest things. Some examples are when she eats the last pizza goldfish which were mainly for me. Or I'm using all the data even though I prefer not to have a social life. So since I hate car rides, I'd have to choose somewhere far, far away. I want to go to Greece.

I am Percy Jackson trash and I love Greek Mythology so why not? I would love to see all of the withered ruins of the gods and then make bad jokes about how most chaos in myths happen because Zeus decided to do the do with another girl which either spawned a hellish thing or an angry wife. I would also like to see the ocean in Greece. I heard the water is turquoise. It would probably remind me of Terezi's blood but hey, that's what happens when you read Homestuck.

I have always been a fan of food and I'm super picky so having actual Greek food would be nice. I'm guessing they would have fresh fish since they are surrounded by fish. I would love to have fish that isn't frozen or caught from the river. My Spanish teacher said that fish caught from the ocean and served that same day tastes way better than frozen fish from the grocery store.

So yeah, I'm trash and I like food. That's mainly why I want to go.

When I Was A Kid

My memory from when I was a young piece of trash is very unclear but one thing that I remember is my imaginative world. When I was little, I made up a new life for me. I would imagine stuff like being a girl named Lily and that I was stranded on an island with my sister Lola. The imaginary parents died in a ship wreck. (I was a weird child). I would often change who I was, just like what I do now because I still live in an imaginary life. I cant control it so yeah.

The one that I remember most though was a wolf named Gemma. I was a beautiful wolf with raven black fur and glowing yellow eyes. I was the youngest of the litter with twelve other siblings. It all started from Melissa and I playing make believe. After Melissa got bored of playing that 'game', I would continue imagining that I'm a wolf. Everyday I would wake up in my den (bed) and go eat wild berries (cereal). After that, I would groom my fur (get dressed) and went on with my day. Everyday was a new adventure. I even had an imaginary mate named Jake. He was a pure white wolf with electric blue eyes. He was the son of the enemy's alpha wolf, Big Paws.

I hid this imaginary world from most people since I'm scared that they'll say I'm crazy. I thought it was just a phase but it still affects. I kinda think my fun little games as a kid has affected me, a now 14 year old.

Where Will I Be In 10 Years

Where will I be in ten years? Probably living under a bridge, eating a can of Pringles and Faygo. Ok I'm kidding. I hope that I'll be a famous animator for Cartoon Network (or the popular cartoon channel) I already have a idea and some drawings of the characters. It's called Ironicly. It's about these superhuman kids who have powers that are total opposite of the character's past/personality. The main character is a girl who is probably the nicest girl you meet but she's part demon. The girl's best friend is a girl who was badly burned in a fire and guess what? She can control fire. Ironic, right? I have other ideas but they might not be that interesting. I am very creative too. I think I can be an animator. I also hope that I can be known on Youtube for making cheesy Homestuck animations. I asked my dad to help me get started now while I'm young so I can get a head start but we both are pretty lazy. I know it's wishful thinking but hey, if Roxy Lalonde can kill Her Imperial Condescension, I can do anything that is humanly possible. I really hope I can be an animator for something though because art is my life. I'm looking up to Rebecca Sugar with this dream and she's doing pretty good so I probably have an ok chance. So yeah, I want to crush my fans' hopes and dreams with a weird cartoon in ten years.
