Tainted Love

Haha, oh man, I heard "Tainted Love" on the radio today. The first thing that popped into my head is Ms. Cochrum [my high school bio teacher] jumping on the table and dancing while belting out "TAINTED LOVEEEEEEEEEE" hahaha. Brings back good memories. I really loved high school, but I was never close with my class. I jumped groups a lot, so I was much of a loner in the end. I don't even keep in touch with high school friends anymore [with the exception of one or two]. I guess that's why I get bored pretty easily when I come home. While everyone's reuniting with high school buddies, I just sometimes hang out with the few friends I do have left here. Even now, I don't find myself close to my "best friend" anymore; it's become more of just a label now. Oh well, I guess we all just grow up and drift apart eventually.

I also went to my elementary school to go swinging today. I used to walk there when I was in a bad mood and go swinging, but now I go just when I go on walks with my sister. I have always loved the swings, ever since I was a kid. It just feels so carefree and relaxing, and feeling the "whoosh" and wind whistling in your ear :)

Just as a random note... I once read an article that said to give thanks for the simple things in life every morning, and it'd give you a happier outlook on life. I do it every night before I sleep, but it really does make my life happier when I'm reminded of all the blessings I have [food, family, friends, shelter, education, etc...]. You should do it too! :)
