A Spice Girl quirk is better than drugs (Day 6)

Hello there BEDA members!
I haven’t a specific topic today, so I believe I shall ramble myself up to one page and be done with it.

One oddity of today, I have been extremely happy, ALL DAY LONG. Like, since I had awaken until right now. I want to make it clear right now that this is a natural high, and not induced by drugs of abuse (or prescribed drugs for that matter)

Now, you might be saying “Alysha, that’s great! But might I inquire as to what has made you this way so that I may reach this incredible state of AMAZING?”

And that’s where I hit my oddity.

I can’t pinpoint why I’m happy.

So I’ve decided that it is a combination of
1. BEDA
This experience has been great for me. Getting my thoughts out, having a goal, and helping me like English better because A. this is not graded, B. I can write about anything I want, and C. you guys are all really supportive and that’s just a great influence to think about when you’re writing.
2. YouTube Downloader/ Ipod file Converters.
WOW! I have been watching some of my favorite vids all day long and have shared them with my other friends who are now seeing a whole different side of my life that, I believe, is really opening up their perceptions of me.
3. Blogging gives a false sense of accomplishment.
For me, it feels like finishing an assignment every time I finish a blog. Downside to this, I procrastinate on my other homework because I already feel like I’ve done enough to deserve an A (which I hope I do, as long as you, my new peeps, are happy and entertained. I wish I could give all of you who read this a lollipop :b )
4. positive attitude
This I have worked on for a while, and now, with the help of good examples I have really achieved one. I can make almost any situation into an opportunity of awesome. Some situations take some thought, but don’t worry! The silver lining is out there somewhere!

And finally, and distinctly (I kind of could have mashed all four above into one if I had tried)
5. The Spice Girls
Now, just hold on right where you are.
I can tell what you’re thinking and I am going to answer you right now.
They are NOT outdated, they are NOT washed up, and they still sound PHENOMINAL
Admit it; they were one of the best parts of your childhood.
You had the CD, you had the movie, and/or you had the shirt.
And if you didn’t, you were missing out, take it from me.


But the odd thing is, I have a cycle when it comes to the Spice Girls
Month 1: “Oh My God! Why did I EVER stop listening to them! I must spread their message of love and never giving up on the good times to EVERYONE I KNOW AND LOVE!
Month 2: “yeah, I guess their okay, I’m just not 9 anymore.”
Month 3: “meh”
Month 4: “I can’t BELIEVE I used to listen to them, I can’t even believe I have them on my computer. I should probably sell those CDs”
Months 5-9 there is no activity until…

Month 10: “Oh My God! Why did I EVER stop listening to them! I must spread their message of love and never giving up on the good times to EVERYONE I KNOW AND LOVE!

This cycle has repeated itself many times since I have entered high school and all started in seventh grade when I found my Spice World movie and decided to watch it one more time, relive my childhood, and then immediately tape over it with a History Channel show about the rise and fall of Rome (I have been nerdy for a very long time)

BUT NO
I watched it about 6 times.
Bought both CDs (I lost my original)
Started listening to their solo work (Melanie Chisholm, still one of my favorite artists btw, just got her new album ‘This Time’ in September.)
And started watching old YouTube videos of them.

So basically, all out obsession.
But in a good way, because I’m not stalking.
And that is always a step in a good direction.

But I just feel I need to inform you, fine people of BEDA, because we are re-entering month 1, so this is about to get very interesting. (I stayed up until midnight last night to watch the movie. I blame the fiveawesomegirls’ fiveawesomeSPICEgirlsvideo. It put the idea in my head)

Well, that’s probably enough confessional for today.

And I didn’t forget, acronym of the day:
